Playa Mia

Some of our family is planning to do the cooking excursion in Cozumel and I believe they will be going to the resort at Playa Mia. I thought that maybe the rest of us would go and use the beach facilities for the day since they end their day at the beach. What can you tell me about Playa Mia, amenities, fees, etc. I'm assuming that I can just take a taxi there and not go through Carnival's excursion service. Thank you for any info.

We have always done the Playa Mia and have enjoyed it greatly. We have however, taken the excursion throuh Carnival just for the security of returning back on time. It felt like we were on the bus for 45 minutes each way - never timed it but it felt like a long time!

 

Enjoy the beach and the shopping is good too!
