Room was dated, but clean, large and comfortable. 2 small pools and grounds for hanging out for a short while. Shared kitchens easily accessible. About 1.5 miles from Ferry. No walkable restaurant options. Overall, a good option at a very affordable price as a base for day trips for diving, etc.

The hotel is lovely, it was quite quiet when I was there which was nice and they let me have a late checkout. The cabin was lovely with 3 double beds in it (was quite expensive though for off season). The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked, the only thing was the hot water only lasted for about a minute then it was gone which is not great when washing your hair and the showerhead was not the greatest.
The staff were absolutely lovely.

We loved our stay here. Villas El Encanto is located in a quiet residential area with lots of lovely bakery and breakfast options nearby. Our accommodation was excellent. 5 of us (incl 3 teenagers) stayed in a very cool and comfortable family cabin with filtered water and a fully equipped kitchen area. We enjoyed the pool area as well as the pretty garden. Thank you so much for a lovely stay - the kids were very sad to say goodbye to the dogs :-)

The courtyard and grounds were a magical, lush and creative landscape. It was so tranquil especially in the evening with the pretty lighting and the large comfy hammock. It belies the outward appearance of the building (which is clean, bright and colourful). We were pleasantly surprised and as a bonus in May, we had it all to ourselves. No TV in the room, and we didn't miss it lol.

Wonderful little spot with nice welcoming hosts.
We hadn’t noticed there was no TV in the unit, which would have been nice to unwind to, but that was our mistake.

The only other issue was there was only one Key, which opens and closes the entry gate so you need to be together to come and go. The key to the unit also is needed to lock from the inside which I’ve never seen before. My Girlfriend went out to get groceries and when I woke up from my nap I was literally locked inside the unit without a key and no way to get out! Seems like a dangerous design especially if you have kids etc.
Having said that, lovely place and nice staff.

Beautiful tropical paradise in Cozumel

We Absolutely loved this hidden gem. Only a 15 min walk into the heart of town. 5 min to the grocery to pick up all your provisions. The rooms are set in the most beautiful, lush gardens. Two perfect dipping pools to cool off after a hot day in the Mexican sun. If you want to rent a jeep there is parking available in the gated compound. If you love dogs they have 6 rescues that roam the property. We fell in love with them all. It really feels like home here. All the staff are amazing and kind. We loved it so much we booked (before we left) for a month next year.

Appartments have everything you need for a self contained/sufficient stay with all the necessary amenities. 15 minute walk into the centre of Cozumel and would probably recommend a car to make the most of exploring the island.
Great base for an island adventure - would def recommend.

My wife and I stayed at Villas el Encanto for a week. It's a real gem.
We were looking for a quiet inn, a little off the beaten track to rest and recuperate at and use as a home base to explore the island. Our two bedroom apartment was wonderful. Martin and his staff were super, very helpful.
The villas courtyard is a tropical rainforest. The sounds of birds fills the air. It's located towards the western edge of San Miguel. It's about a 15 minute walk to the heart of downtown, 10 minutes to a public beach and two blocks to the nearest supermarket.
We highly recommend it.

First and foremost the owner Martin was incredible. I received a text from Expedia before I even left IAH asking what time I'd be there. I replied with a time and Martin was waiting on me when I pulled up in a taxi. Check-in was very quick! A credit card swipe and the keys were in my hand. By keys I do mean physical keys. One for the room, one for the lock box, and a RFID for the security gate.. This is a small place, but very quiet. Martin was there everyday if anything was needed. I stayed in the family villa which was 3 beds and 1 bath (shower). All the beds were comfortable and the front porch with 3 chairs and a hammock was great. You're within walking distance on resturants and an Oxxo. Check-out was just as quick as check-in. The lady called for a taxi for me which arrived in less than ten minutes. You will need your own ice and drinks as well as food. Wifi was reliable. I didn't experience any interruptions. A 5 gallon jug of water is provided. The only negative I had there was there was no television. I just watch movies and football on my phone. Maybe Martin will get me a TV next time. Great place!

Loved the idea of the place. Villas were nice. They were not maintaining the “jungle” garden area and the fountain in the courtyard wasn’t flowing. As a result the mosquitoes were completely out of control. We could not enjoy the outdoor porch or pool areas at all.

There’s not an on site restaurant or even any really close ones available for lunch or dinner.

Lovely place!!!

This place was a Gem. Located in a quiet neighborhood, close to a local market. The staff was always helpful. The property garden and pools were amazing. We felt connected with nature at all times. The communal kitchen was well equipped. My husband and I are very pleased with our stay.

Lush, green, calm oasis!

A real hidden gem! I was nervous about not staying on the beach when the main purpose of the holiday was snorkelling but the location was perfect for our 7 night stay. Away from the hustle of the town but just a 20 minute walk to all the bars, shops and restaurants, lovely luscious grounds made us feel like we were in a mini jungle. We had a hire car so could tour the island and the plentiful shore snorkelling locations! Ample parking for cars on site.

We loved our cosy cabin with plenty of wardrobe space and a kitchenette. Well decorated and really comfortable beds.

The animals are a real bonus you don’t usually get on holiday! We loved sitting on the porch with the friendly dogs.

Ana made us feel like it was a home from home and gave us recommendations.

Provided us with ample filtered water to refill our bottles so we didn’t have to buy single use plastic. Lots of mosquitos (because of the greenery) and even with big spray, a net would have been useful at night.

Great Mexican breakfast for $10pp at Silvia’s at the end of the street.

We’ll definitely stay here again if we return to Cozumel!

Awesome place! Great cabin & safe.

We stayed at an all-inclusive for several days but decided to add an additional night in Cozumel. We decided to pick a local spot near town. This hotel was perfect! We really enjoyed our stay here.

Loved this quiet, secluded get-away

We loved our stay at Villas El Encanto. The property is beautiful and secluded, despite being just a 15 minute walk to the main plaza. I loved listening to all the birds and of course, petting the dogs. Other reviewers mentioned mosquitos, but I did not see a single mosquito during our 5 day stay, not even in the evenings. I would 100% stay here again!

Good but can be improved

Sweet place with friendly dogs that would greet you and join breakfast with you if you invite them. However make sure you bring bug spray with you as this place is occupied by mosquitoes.
Staff is friendly but reception house is often closed and empty.

Garden getaway

Beautiful villa with a private pool and comfortable bed. You need to get a scooter or bikes to get into town for food and shopping. WiFi did not work/ had too low of a signal to connect in our room. Service was friendly. Bring your bug spray! The lush grounds attract a lot of mosquitos.

This hotel is so unique! The grounds are beautifully landscaped and the owners are super nice. My kids loved the pools and the front porch on our cabin with a hammock. It is very safe with gated parking. It's far enough from the busy touristy areas to be peaceful but also an easy walk to restaurants, bars, beach clubs, dive shops, or pretty much anything you would want.

A gorgeous oasis - after leaving the beauty of the reefs and beaches, returning to a lush garden to dip in the crisp, cool, salt water pool was a level above anything I'd imagined.

The wifi was so spotty that it was practically non-existant which helped me disconnect but could be an important issue for many.

There were very few other guests which helped keep the property super quiet.

There was fresh drinking water, a very clean communal kitchen, and an extremely comfortable shaded hammock. Bring mosquito repellant.

It's hard to put into words how much I loved staying here. We chose the deluxe cabin for our stay and HIGHLY recommend it. The hotel made our trip to Cozumel really special. Nothing like waking up and being able to make coffee, sit on your private porch (maybe with a pooch friend or two) and listen to the sounds of all the wild birds. It felt like an oasis, the landscaper gets a heartfelt kudos from me. I spent my most peaceful moments either on that porch or floating in the pool watching the clouds go by.

The room itself was very clean and comfortable. We loved the cabin feel. The AC worked well and the bed was firm but cozy (I prefer a firmer bed myself). It was a bit more rustic than the other hotels we stayed at but it was still my favorite. The coffee machine and toaster oven made it so we never had to rush out for breakfast in the morning. The housekeeper did a great job which we so appreciated. Check in and check out were seemless and the attandants were very kind. Will return for sure!

Quiet, relaxing and enchanting

My husband and I decided to gift a trip to Cozumel and needed to book another night before our departure in the latter part of March. We stayed in Villa #7 and it was just what we needed. The villa had a balcony overlooking a small pool with a beautiful garden view. There are no oceanview sites on the property, but the owner and the staff were exceptionally friendly and the villa was very clean and accommodating. We want to return in June with a second booking with grandchildren. This property is a walking distance from the main drive, Melgar Street, in a more quiet area of the Corpus Christi neighborhood.

Lovely small Hotel with beautiful gardens in a quiet neighborhood. Wonderful public spaces to relax in. Shared palapa dining spaces and nice kitchens. Owned by locals who drove us to the ferry when our taxi was late. Across the street from authentic Mexican cafe and 3 easy blocks from a super market .... sweet gift shop .... Enchantment is real.

One of my best stays in Cozumel. Ana and Martin were such great hosts. We stayed in a cabin which was perfect in every way. It’s close to downtown (very much walkable to great restaurants). The property has two pools surrounded by a whimsical and jungly atmosphere. The property is in a safe area and has the added safety feature of a key fob Gate, where you can pull in cars and scooters for added peace of mind. If you’re worried about not being on the beach, there are so many options. Buccanos for a beach pass (you pay once and can use all week), punta sur, and of course the east side of the island (our favorite). We really like the villas el encanto as a home base to explore all that Cozumel has to offer. Make sure to ask Ana and Martin for their suggestions on activities and food. We were always so happy with their pointers.

Loved it! Great owners and management, lovely apartment with plenty of space, Our credit card actually didn't work at check-in and they were so patient with us while we dealt with our bank. (even let us check in and fix the money the issue the next day!) Excellent customre service.

The property has dogs running around, but they are super friendly and cute. There are about 5 of them. We are dog people and loved them. If you're not a dog person, they won't bother you, so you're still fine.

The cleaning/housekeeping was great. No worries or issues with cleanliness or COVID. They even washed the dishes in our apartment.

The only issue we had was minor. One room had ants coming in. Once we blocked their tiny entrance with a small towel, no issues. We didn't even report it because it was minor and you're on an island with bugs, animuals, and in the jungle lol.

Would definitely recommend and visit again.

Martín and his mother are the greatest hosts. From the moment you arrive, they treat you like family and make sure all your needs are met. The property is surrounded by beautiful gardens and a peaceful pool area. The rooms/cabins are clean, comfortable, and with all the the amenities you need to enjoy your stay.
On the last day when we were returning home, we had made arrangements with a taxi driver but he never came to pick us up. Martín was was so nice and helpful that he even offered us a ride to the airport in his personal vehicle. We tried paying him but he refused to take any money! We are extremely grateful and blown away by the quality of their service and the beauty of their property. Thank you Villas El Encanto. We hope to see you guys soon!!

The property is located in a neighborhood to the south of the downtown center. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the town center; in-between there are two large grocery stores and several restaurants. The room I was clean and spacious. I would return here.

The staff was incredibly friendly and helped us with amazing restaurant and snorkeling recommendations. The hotel was very comfortable and clean. The space was so peaceful--the courtyard between all the rooms is like a tropical sanctuary. It's a quiet location within walking distance of the center of town (10 - 15 minutes). I plan to go back to Cozumel and I will definitely stay here again, just very peaceful vibes.

This place is very nice and quiet. The rooms are generous and the grounds are nicely made. I would have sat out more if not for the hot weather. This is right in a neighborhood so it’s not around all the hotels and people. There is a nice breakfast place right around the corner and a grocery store. There is a common kitchen that is very nice. Did not ser one person use it besides me. Great place to stay.
