Suites Turquesa

I loved it here. Beautiful views. Quiet and tranquil. Close to restaurants. Liked having a kitchen available. The snorkeling....OMG! It is amazing right from in front of the hotel. Won't be sorry!

Please get softer beds and be aware that there is no elevator so if stairs are a problem for you this is not your spot.

We loved the location, just away from the busy tourist strip but close enough to walk. it’s literally right in the water with beautiful snorkeling right along the shore. Our room was spacious, clean, and had a kitchenette with standard size fridge and hot plate.

The only thing we wished was different was that we had reserved a room with a full ocean view. our room had very small balconies and didn’t get any sun.

The position of this hotel for views, peace and quiet and snorkelling was unbeatable. Although not really within walking distance from the ultramar ferry (with luggage) it is a quick an easy ride by taxi. The staff were really friendly and kindly allowed us early check in and late departure. There is free parking outside if you have a hire car, and the pool and easy access to brilliant snorkelling made our stay here even more special. A large water container full of drinking water was provided for our stay.

A kettle would have been nice for boiling water in, but otherwise cant fault this hotel.

Well, what we really paid was the access to the ocean really, I knew about the poor amenities of the property so I assumed risk, definitely, rooms need some improvement, also the internet should be better on these days difference between medium and high speeds is nothing why not go up the fastest !!! some people we use these stays for work as well !!

Well, the Room is a little bit old AC is really noisy... but again it is well known that we paid was access to the ocean, I mean the price does not match with the room unfortunately

Serene turquoise view from each of the two small balconies. Snorkeling directly on site is as good as you will find anywhere on Cozumel! Large raised counter in kitchen works great as a standup desk. 5 gallon garrafon of purified water provided, thank you! Ice cube trays in freezer were appreciated! Housekeeping twice a week if you wanted it. Cozumel is one of the relatively sleepy little sister islands off the hustle and bustle of the Riviera Maya. Suites Turquesa is a small, about 10 unit condo building north of town, just past the airport and military area, before the fisherman's port. Directly on the ironshore waterfront, Suites Turquesa faces west towards Playa del Carmen in the distance, and sunset is almost perceived as setting into the ocean. The water color here is the clearest turquoise, and sand is very pale, so the shades of blue heal your soul. One huge attraction of these condos is the snorkeling directly off the sea wall in front, with a ladder on each end for water exit. The rock wall is alive with wonderful snorkeling, just 20 seconds walk from your room! The rooms here are simple but sturdy. Internet speed was not great, but latency was low (under 140ms loaded), so VoIP calls as a digital nomad worked just fine 90% of the time (video does NOT). Sustained throughput was below 4 MBps - the building really needs to upgrade to a better internet speed. The small community of people in the building is friendly and meets nightly for happy hour in the beautiful pool/patio/sandy sun bathing areas. A scooter or car would be recommended to get around Cozumel. There is not really any restaurant or bar close to this condo, but Hemingway is about a km to the south, and Coral Princess Hotel and Hotel B about a km to the north.

Slow internet speed (but lower latency). No safe. Only a partial ocean view (they have other upgraded condos with full ocean view). Window in shower is not able to be closed. Kitchen cabinets do not exist (there is a shelf) and drawers are bizarre and non-functional. They are not normal storage units. Same in bedroom - no dresser but there is a closet with shelves.

nice facility, location but slipping into the ocean to swim and snorkel made it worth the price

manager not very friendly, brusque also VERY slow with calculations etc that could have been done prior to arrival… more into her rules than welcoming!

Great room. Penthouse suite. Basically a 1 Bedroom apartment with sufficient kitchen utensils. Gigantic balcony. Very nice swimming pool and sandy makeshift beach area with steps to the ocean. Good snorkeling. Grill and common area available. Any maintenance issues were taken care of without difficulty. 15-20 min walk to the edge of town. Easy taxi access at building. $5. Or 70-100 pesos each way but we walked often. Always ask cab driver price first. Staff kind & courageous. Quite. Met a lot of nice guests from all over the world. Airconditioning worked good. Free wifi that worked fine. Felt safe to walk at night but we weren't out past 11pm. 24 hour night watchman with key entry into building. We definitely got our steps in on this vacation which was a plus as we try to stay physically active.

Lots of steps to your room. 38 steps to the PH suite which really wasn't that bad. Our kids had room 232 and only had 1 set of steps. Wished the room tile floors were scrubbed better or more often. I'm sure they would have addressed it if we mentioned. Bed was sufficient.

I stayed in Suites Turquesa on August 6, 2023 for three nights. I really loved my stay. I enjoy being a short scooter ride away from San Miguel away from crowds. The best part of the stay is the outdoors. It is absolutely stunning, the water is beautiful azul blue and clean. I had the best time swimming around the wall and seeing bountiful marine life and some corals. There is not beach but there is nice resting area with sand and beach chairs and umbrellas. The pool was clean and nice addition as well.

I believe I stayed in room 213 and unfortunately there was a lot of mold in the bathroom and the whole room had an odd smell. I had a headache staying in my room the first day till I figured out whenever I keep my door open it is all good. Unfortunately I wasn't able to use the AC in that case. When I asked to change the room I was told all the rooms are the same. Also this room is on the first floor and doesn't have a functional curtain. It doesn't close all the way down and it is reversed so at night people by the pool could easily see inside and I wouldn't be able to see outside. This does feel quite uncomfortable and I hope it will get fixed. Other rooms seemed to fine in this instance.

Wonderful location and facilities. Just heaven! If you need some rest and recuperation this is the place. We hardly explored the island - just sunbathed on the terrace, dipped in the pool and snorkelled off the front of the property. The apartments are beautifully designed, light, spacious with little balconies off the rooms, great kitchen area, very comfortable beds.

There was unfortunately a power cut one night which meant we were without a/c for several hours.

From our suite, we were able to watch the sunset from the balcony, such a beautiful view. The suite is spacious, a/c runs quiet, and all the necessities are there. The staff is friendly and helpful. Snorkeling off the property is great and best in the morning!

Only small niggles: the cutting board is very small, kitchen knife not sharp, and in the kitchen, there is exactly two of everything… I would have liked 4 glasses as well as mugs instead of tiny cups. And an electric water kettle for boiling water for tea - the stovetop seemed like overkill.
