no1volman Posted May 29, 2017 #1 Share Posted May 29, 2017 After reading so many post my eyes are crossing. I think I've narrowed it down to Mr Sanchos, Paradise Beach, and Nachi Cocom. It's my wife, myself, and 2 teenage girls (14 & 15). We're not drinkers so interest in alcohol. But food on the other hand is a different story, lol. The girls all like the sun. But all I care about is relaxing in the shade. So plenty of shaded areas is a must. I think the girls would enjoy the water inflatables. But honestly at their age. I'm not sure how long they would keep their attention. I like the all you can eat option at Sanchos. But is it really worth it if you're not drinking alcohol? If my research is correct. It looks like there will only be 2 ships in port that day if that makes a difference. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifes-a-beach Posted May 29, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 29, 2017 For what it's worth, we started taking our kids to PB when they were something like 4 and 6, way before there was a pool. Been there bunches of times since and even though they're out of college now PB still remains at the top of our collective list for beach clubs. We don't drink alcohol either and most definitely like good food. My wife doesn't lay in the sun and isn't interested in the sand unless it's in Grand Cayman. The whole property is nice. Beautiful pool area, shade at the pool and on the beach between the pool and the water. Clean restrooms. Excellent service and very good food. I've never felt like I overspent. Have fun wherever you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe it was the sand being rocky after entering the water. I really can't remember. Do you remember that being a problem?

JohninDC Posted May 30, 2017 #4 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Your girls will be bored at Nachi. PB is the choice if you decide not to go AI -- Sanchos is the choice for AI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifes-a-beach Posted May 30, 2017 #5 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I have found that the sand is quite course pretty much everywhere in Cozumel. As far as there being rocks in the water, I just don't remember that. The number of kids out there playing on the inflatables tells me they have no complaints. PB is a family friendly environment which, even if we're by ourselves, is an important consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted May 30, 2017 #6 Share Posted May 30, 2017 We are thinking of going to Paradise beach while in Cozumel. Do we need to reserve ahead of time or can we just show up day of? Are there minivan taxis that will hold 6 of us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted May 30, 2017 #7 Share Posted May 30, 2017 No need to reserve in advance - actually you cannot reserve PB in advance. Check their web site for details - $3 admission/chair rental and extra fee for the water toys. Lots of van taxis that can handle your group of 6 - fare will be posted on the board near the taxi line (expect to pay about $30 each way, but my memory may have been affected by all of the margaritas). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbarashimer414 Posted May 31, 2017 #9 Share Posted May 31, 2017 If your looking for the best beaches in Cozumel, you will find them on the East Coast of Cozumel also known as the other side of Cozumel. If your looking for shallow waters that do not have waves, your best bet is at Punta Sir Eco Park, because it is protected by the bay the wraps around. The water is about 2 feet for half a mile out, and is absolutely gorgeous. We stopped here last year on a private jeep tour, and it was perfect for the kids. If you continue along the other side of Cozumel, you will see lots of secluded beaches that are free from development. Its like taking a step back in time. You can pick a beautiful deserted spot on the beach and have the entire thing to yourself. We read that the waves can be harsh on windy days. The day we were there, they were somewhat calm. I personally like that the beaches are all natural, and not over crowded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherCraig Posted June 1, 2017 #10 Share Posted June 1, 2017 We love Nachi Cocom the best but wouldn't do it if we were not drinking and had teens with us. Paradise Beach would be best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
