About this property

EL CANTIL 5-star Caribbean Villa, Right on the Ocean - Beautiful Views

Welcome to Vista Azul at El Cantil Resort!

Ah, the beautiful Caribbean!

Just sit back on the terrace and watch the boats go by, or layout on the beach, pretend to read, and actually nod off to sleep. Then enjoy swimming in the gorgeous infinity pool, which overlooks the brilliant blue ocean, or maybe choose to snorkel from your dock or even go scuba diving in the matchless Cozumel reefs. There is nothing like Cozumel and it's all yours.


Our Vista Azul Condo is located perfectly!

It sits on the westward side of Cozumel Island and on the south end of Cozumel’s main town of San Miguel. What that means for you is that you can just walk across the street for groceries if you like or amble into town for some of the best cuisines in Mexico.

Our condo is part of the only 5-Star exclusive, luxury oceanfront resort condominium complex in Cozumel. It features the largest living room in the resort. It also features 3 bedroom suites, each with its own ensuite private bath. It offers a fully equipped gourmet kitchen, a spacious, fully furnished dining and living room, and an unparalleled terrace boasting a priceless view. El Cantil is has a sophisticated water refinement system that delivers fresh, soft water to the condo. In addition, our condo has a 6 stage reverse osmosis system with an alkaline water drinking system at the kitchen sink, which offers amazing drinking water. Rest assured that the system is serviced regularly.

You can enjoy our own resort beach and salt-water grotto. There is also an outdoor shower, perfect for rinsing off diving and snorkel gear, as well as a ladder that will take you down to the ocean easily to snorkel or swim.

You can also go adventuring: scuba boats can pick you up at our own private dock; you can visit Mayan ruins, take jungle tours, ride 4-wheel ATVs, go bonefishing or catch blue marlin and all the great sportfish in between. You can explore Cozumel’s world-renown coral reef and marine park.

Rent a Jeep or open-air VW and explore the undeveloped rustic eastern side of the island or the long, sandy beaches on the south side.

Activities include fine dining, scuba diving, local shopping, parasailing, kayaking, boating, deep-sea fishing, ATV and scootering, (Harleys are available for rent as well), bicycling and nearby championship golf.

Vista Azul is on the fourth floor, which means that your ocean view of the Caribbean from the balcony is unobstructed, yet it is still easy to get to the crystal clear water of the Caribbean or the large infinity heated pool by elevator or stairs.

We have 24-hour security and tip-top service- anything you need; optional maid service and laundry service are available at your convenience. Our property service manager, Laura, will take personal care of whatever you need.

This is a quiet building, occupied mostly by owners, many of whom do not even live in Cozumel. This means the beach and pool areas have few other people - it's almost like your very own. Local town people do not have access to your private beach and pool.

The master bedroom and 2nd bedroom have a spectacular waterfront view. They have wall-to-wall floor-to-ceiling high windows. Each room offers private access to the terrace.

Each room has cable TV with a large variety of U.S. channels. Free high-speed internet and local calls to Cozumel. But remember to bring your laptop at your own risk, because you may not want to interfere with your vacation.

Nothing is wanting when you come to Vista Azul. A perfect choice for your vacation. You will love it - everybody does!

Wonderful stay at El Cantil

Spacious and quiet condo with great views of the water. Ed and Laura were a great team and communication was excellent. The location was ideal, with one grocery store across the street and another store within a 5 minute walk. The city center, with all of the available restaurants, was accessible within a 10-15 minute walk. We went scuba diving with Aldora, and they picked us up at the El Cantil dock, making the process very easy. Roberto was our divemaster for several of the dives. I would highly recommend Aldora and Roberto.

Wonderful stay at El Cantil in Cozumel!

Our stay at Vista Azul/El Cantil was absolutely wonderful! The unit was very nice, clean and spacious! The complex was also clean and the pool and dock area allowed for some fun in the water...relaxing in the pool and snorkeling off of the dock. The location was great...next to a grocery store and walkable to many restaurants and attractions. Dining at Guidos and La Cocay were VERY tasty!! We really enjoyed our time in Cozumel!!

Cozumel Paradise

We had a fantastic stay. The space is more beautiful than the pictures. I wanted to spend all my time on the balcony. The condo is well equipped and comfortable. Location is key - having the grocery store across the street and downtown walkable was so convenient. The dive shops we booked with unfortunately did not pick up from the El Cantil dock, however it was a 10 cab ride which was no problem - always easy to get a taxi. I took walks every morning and our group was out at night and always felt safe. Ed and Laura answered all questions. Laura arranged for balcony massages and they were amazing. Having the pool, hot tub, and ocean just outside was a huge selling point for us. I enjoyed the morning sun cutting between the two condo buildings to the pool. No issues with WiFi, plenty of towels. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

Perfect for our family!

Three in suite bedrooms. Everything we needed for our family to get together from the States. Grocery/General Store directly across the street. Taxi service anytime hailed by the porter. The entire area is very walkable and safe. Good snorkeling off the dock, tons of sea life on an old pier reef marked by an orange buoy. Pool was great. Never saw more than a dozen or so people. Everyone was so friendly. Would rent again!

Back to Cozumel!

We just returned to Cozumel after 27 years. The island did not disappoint nor did our wonderful accommodations at El Cantil! Prior to our visit, our host Ed Ohayon was so gracious in helping us with everything from great restaurant recommendations, to helping us with various questions we had prior to our arrival. We also loved that we were in the best hands with Laura, the property manager. She was extremely helpful and made sure that anything we needed or any questions we had were taken care of immediately. A huge thank you to both Ed and Laura! We can't wait to return as after many years away from Cozumel, we have found a great "home" to go back to again!

Great place for a long stay

We had a wonderful time staying here. There was always someone at the front of the building willing to help with any issues and made the property feel very secure. The location, amenities, and pool were amazing. There isn’t a washer or dryer but you can always go to the local laundry mat. Our goats was very responsive and accommodating to a few hiccups we had during our travels, couldn’t have found a better place!

Loved our stay at El Cantil!! Check in was seamless and Laura was wonderful. The staff/security were friendly and helpful. The view was beautiful and the condo is spacious. Snorkeling was super fun and accessible on the property. Beautiful sunsets from the balcony and/or infinity pool were gorgeous. Easy walking distance to restaurants and grocery store.

Everything was easy: booking, communication, check in/out. Condo was spotless and all the facilities and employees were great. Place was as advertised in the description and pictures. Loved the location for easy walk into town, no need for a car. We would taxi to dinner some nights $6 and always walked back (after churros on the square 😎). Pretty empty when we were there which was great. The pool area is showing some age but very clean and all of the employees were great and helpful. We would not hesitate to stay here our next time in Cozumel.

Why they chose this property

We have traveled around the world with our family and have always wanted to go to and explore the 'next' spot...until now. We found Vista Azul, in the El Cantil 5-Star Resort condos on the unique and beautiful island of Cozumel and we fell in love. We could not resist being here. We put a purchase offer on the property and were lucky that the previous owners said yes. Now it is our home-away-from-home, and we would love it to be yours as well! We want you to feel welcome and completely at home in this beautiful place.

What makes this property unique

The balcony is spectacular - you can watch the ships and boats go by, or just relax in the hammock. We can't decide whether day or night is more beautiful - you see the sunsets right from your balcony.
The infinity pool is right at the ocean. And when you get hungry, you can just walk into town and enjoy any of the myriads of wonderful restaurants available. Or you can go across the street for groceries at the supermarket.
Boats pick you up from the private dock. Jeeps and bikes are available for rent to explore the island. You can't beat Cozumel and you can't beat Vista Azul at El Cantil Condos for beauty, peacefulness, and location, location, location.
