Beneath turquoise waters, coral reefs create an underwater playground where snorkellers encounter angelfish, parrotfish, and curious sea turtles. At Chankanaab Park, paths wind through botanical gardens before revealing hidden cenotes and a delightful sea lion show.

After sunset, the malecón fills with locals performing impromptu salsa demonstrations. Rent a scooter to discover the island's wild eastern shore, where waves crash against limestone and beach bars consist of little more than a cooler and hammocks.

Melia Cozumel All Inclusive

Melia Cozumel All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"This property was amazing. The beach was perfect and the property itself was really clean and cared for. They were always going around cleaning and we never saw anything out of place. The staff was amazing and always took great care of us. They even surprised my husband with a gift in the room for his birthday. They knew all of our names and the service was top notch. 10/10 would recommend and would definitely stay again if we are ever in the area. We love Malia!! The only complaint we probably had was we couldn't use the resort equipment when it cooled off because they shut down. So during the day when it was so hot it was available but as soon as the sun went down and it was cool it was all locked up. But overall it wasn't a huge deal and we were super pleased with absolutely everything!"
