| Nachi Cocum was by far the best day of our vacation. We booked this resort at $49 per person (thru cozumelcruiseexcursions.com) After a $15 taxi ride, we arrived at Nachi and were greeted by a warm and friendly smile. We were immediately whisked away to our lounge chairs under a palapa and our drink orders were taken.
Nachi is everything you imagine a Caribbean beach should be: gorgeous white sand, crystal-clear blue water, hammocks swinging in the shade of palm trees, a warm and clean pool and Jacuzzi with a swim-up bar...it is quite simply paradise. Our server, Manuel, was extremely attentive and accommodating. I lost count of the number of Margaritas and Rum Runners he brought us that day, but let's just say we definitely got our money's worth.
Also included in the $49/person price is the food. You can order up to three items from their menu, per person, but my hubby and I could only manage to eat three items between the two of us. After chowing down on nachos, fajitas (which were extremely delicious) and quesadillas, there was simply no room for any more food. I regret not ordering the tortilla soup, but I literally could not eat another bite.
After roughly four and a half hours, we had to force ourselves to leave. We would have preferred to establish permanent residence, but eventually out family would have tracked us down. So, we tipped Manuel $20 for his service, ordered two drinks to go, and found a taxi cab waiting to take us back to the pier. |
