Penthouse w/ Stunning Ocean Views and Pool

Welcome to Cozumel! Our condo is located on the top floor of an elegant 8 story building, Palmar Condominiums. The grounds and building are very elegant and the amenities are first class. Our condo has wall to wall floor to ceiling glass leading out onto a 35 ft. long deck with an unbeatable view of the ocean! Enjoy watching the cruise ships come and go.

Two ball/grill/beach clubs across the street provide easy access to one of the top shore snorkeling sites on the island as evidenced by the fact that many snorkel boat operators bring literally hundreds of their paying customers to this spot every day (see photo). This area also provides a nice shore dive as a warm up before diving the deeper reefs. While diving and snorkeling we have seen eels and lobsters in the coral formations just below our place as well as thousands of fish large and small.

A beautiful, very large pool has a huge tiled area surrounding it with lots of places to hang out. Shaded 'beds' and pool side wifi makes it a place you can stay for hours and a hot tub offers a great place to watch sunsets. Most units in Palmar are owned by local professionals. Several others are Americans who live there permanently or spend several months a year in Cozumel. The pool area is a great place to get to know other residents, hang out and watch the activity on the ocean.

A private tennis court, game room (pool, ping pong) and gym are part of the complex and can be used by our guests.

Palmar is situated in the 'south' hotel district which means it is about 5 minutes by car/taxi, or a 25 minute walk from downtown. It is also right in the heart of lots of activity in the south hotel district. You can walk across the street to go snorkeling or to the dive shop and you have quick access to many restaurants and shops, including a 24 hr convenience store located just below the pool area.

The views are absolutely magnificent! By being on the 8th (top) floor you clearly see the incredible variety of greens and blues that has made Cozumel's water famous. You’ll also have a wonderful vantage point to watch cruise ships come and go as well as sailboats, snorkelers and other boats seemingly dance across the sparkling turquoise water during the day. Then, every evening you watch the sun set in the Caribbean. It is truly a magical place to stay.

Enjoy the beach, water or town during the day & be home to enjoy watching the sunset from the large balcony, which is where we find ourselves spending most of our time. Mornings are glorious- breakfast on the balcony while looking down into the incredible water is something we never tire of!

We have taken pains to decorate the condo beautifully and to furnish the kitchen with first class cookware and other things needed by those who love to cook. If you prefer to have a local cook for you that can be arranged at a reasonable cost by our local property manager.

There are two bedrooms and each has its own bath. There is a queen size pullout couch in the living room and a guest bathroom near the entry way so people staying on the pullout do not have to bother fellow guests in the middle of the night.

Please note the dishwasher is currently out of service, we apologize for any inconvenience. Please note the Palmar building is undergoing exterior painting updates from now until August 1, 2024. Approximate times of work being done outside of weather issues are Mon-Fri 9am-5pm, Sat 9am-2pm. This may affect views depending on scaffolding and balconies being covered, and we may request entry during your stay to access the balcony. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Needs work done
The property needs updated.The sheets on the one bed were torn and the other bed sheet was all balled up.The microwave didn't work neither did the ice maker.The instructions for the TV didnt work as well.Texted this info to property manager and he got back to me two days later.There were stains on the doors as well as scuff marks,the bench cushion was stained and all of the furniture is old and outdated.The coffee cups were chipped and some of the glasses cracked.There was no hot water in the bathroom sinks. The heater was not working on the hot tub and the pool deck was under construction and tile were coming off in the pool and deck.

Wonderful location and very comfortable
Great view from the balcony. The furnishings were very comfortable and we felt at home immediately. The property manager was very responsive and set us up with a very good chef for a dinner one night in the condo. It was great to sit on the balcony after a day of diving and watch the ocean. I’d go back again!

We had a death in the family and they were amazing to work with. Very accommodating and understanding. My son ended up staying at the condo for four of our scheduled nights. The rest were given to us as a future credit! He LOVED the condo location and view. He loved Sunset and scuba at Chankanaab Park with Gilmer Hilguera! Cozumel is a wonderful place. We will definitely be back and stay here again.

Cozumel Gem!
We stayed here for 3 days and absolutely loved it!!! The unit was clean and perfectly equipped. Having laundry to do towels and swimsuits was very nice. The view is outstanding and location was perfect. Easy to park, safe, and easy to navigate if you have a car. It super close to multiple dive shops and the BEST fish tacos! The management team was very attentive from beginning to end. We will be staying here again. The next time we come to Cozumel.

Perfect vacation!
We’ve been to Cozumel many times, but this was the first time we didn’t stay at a resort. We enjoyed every bit of our condo stay. The property was stunning, all employees were courteous and friendly, the pool was awesome, and the location could not have been better. Our communication with the property manager was great. They checked in multiple times, offered tour schedules (we didn’t need them), scheduled housekeeping and just made sure everything was ok. We will definitely be staying here again!

This is our location of choice in Coz. Very close to our dive shop, half a dozen good restaurants, easy taxis. We don’t use the pool but it’s huge. Only issue is we understood shampoo was provided and it is, but not refilled during the stay. We will stay here again…

Fabulous place at a great price
Beautiful place and right across from our scuba dive pier. Condo is perfect for cooking your own food, watching the ships arrive and leave, and you can truly drink the water from the faucet and not get ill. There is also bottled water if you are not sure about the faucet. Towels provided to use for the pool and hot tub. Staff on property wonderful and very accommodating. We will stay her again!

Great location, wonderful for divers and families
Our family of 4 greatly enjoyed our stay. The property was well maintained and very clean. The condo it lawlf was well appointed and had majority of kitchen items we required. The Central AC was easy to use and kept the interior at the desired temperature. Security delivers water, which was very convenient. The one issue that arose (broken toilet) was rapidly repaired and imposed no discomfort for us. Well managed and wonderfully operated. Jungle Divers departs from just below the pool and fulfilled our dive needs with comfort and ease. There is an Oxxo just below the pool that functions as a very convenient store. We would gladly stay here. It would be better suited for families if the 2nd bedroom had twin beds, but that's the only thing close to a complaint I have and I was aware of the bed size when booking.

Had an issue when we arrived because I hadn't been provided with the correct information to access the property, HOWEVER the people at the guard house were AMAZINGLY helpful and got everything straightened out for us.

We loved our stay in this condo. It was spacious, well decorated, and equipped with necessary supplies. We loved our time on the deck…fabulous breakfast views and wonderful evening sunsets. Palmar is great too. We love the pool…(although I wish it were heated). We love the workout room. It is a great location with multiple restaurants within walking distance. It was easy working with Jordan and the property manager returned my calls or texts promptly. Boy…I shouldn’t be telling you all this…I want this place to myself. 🤪

Full baths are luxurious with walk-in showers, kitchen was well-equipped and the terrace offered beautiful sunset views every night. Owners were very cooperative in booking & local property mgr. was readily accessible if needed. Pool and access to great snorkeling right across the street make this a perfect location.

The nicest place we have stayed
The problem with a 5 star system is that a huge range of properties get lumped together as 5 star. I have given 5 stars to nice places and amazing places. This is the best of the bunch. Pros: Pretty much everything. * Check in is keypad, so always available and keyless. * The property manager is amazing. Quick to respond and the recommendations were all solid. *The place was spotless on arrival. * Well stocked and decorated. There was a barbeque, tennis gear, beach gear, hats, sunscreen, books, and the list goes on. * The location is perfect. An OXXO (think 7-11) under the pool, great dive shop and restaurant across the beach, taxis available at all times, parking if you have a car. * The unit is top floor, so no sounds from above, and the view is the best. The building is angled so that not only is it an ocean view, but a sunset view. Only one unit deep, there is even an ocean, jungle and sunrise view out back. * The Wi-Fi was highspeed and never dropped. Cons: * If you want to be downtown, it is a $5 cab ride and a bit far to walk. Which is actually a pro for us because we want peace and quiet. We could not have been happier and will absolutely come back.

Excellent property! Outstanding view!
This property is fantastic. The condominium itself was spotless. The property was very well kept. We liked the garbage and recycling bins in the stairwells of every floor. I emptied some cans into the recycling bin and a small amount of garbage into the garbage. I returned sometime later the same day to rid some garbage and the bins had already been emptied. There was always grounds staff working to maintain the cleanliness around the building. Security was a great help and very friendly. The view from this property is amazing. You are literally a stones throw from the ocean. I’m sure if my shoulder was healthy I could’ve thrown a ball to the water. Although the cruise ships docked within view this did not take away from the amazing sunsets. There was some street noise but nothing overly intrusive. The pool and pool deck was fantastic. Huge !! Clean. Plenty of ( more than enough) chairs. Even though the temperature was 30+ degrees the hot tub was actually inviting. Yeah, I know. Weird. Everything about the property was top-shelf. I would recommend this stay to friends and family. I would have liked to seen better communication from property representative and owner. We contacted the property manager upon arrival who unfortunately could not meet with us that afternoon. We received no more calls or texts for the duration of our stay. Nor did the owner check in to see if we had any issues or questions. There was a “tip” container for the housekeeper. We were unsure if a housekeeper was to come by daily. Of course we had no issue at all cleaning up after ourselves and doing our own laundry. We were just unsure of this issue. A housekeeper never did come by so we wondered, why the tip jar? Again, some communication would have maybe addressed this question. Overall, apart from a few unanswered questions, this was an excellent property. If I win the lottery I’ll put in an offer :) Tim

Six Weeks of a Pampered Lifestyle
This was our second consecutive year at Condo Palmar in Cozumel, staying six weeks this year. This was our first time staying in condo 8D owned by Terry Benjamin and his wife. We met Terry last year while staying in a different unit. He is a very delightful guy and I feel like we have become good friends in a very short time. The condo is beautiful, and they just did a complete remodel of both bathrooms and some upgrades to the kitchen. We especially enjoyed being on the top floor, making it much quieter. Also, it makes for a spectacular view. We are avid tennis players and scuba divers. So Palmar is the perfect place for us. The complex has one, just recently resurfaced, beautiful tennis court and is only a five minute walk to Roberta's Scuba Shack, our favorite dive center on the island. Alex, the property management employee, is very friendly, efficient, and responsive in addressing any issues and making sure everything is perfect for our stay. My wife and I, being retired, travel 40% of the year. A lot of trips are to dive, others to hike and explore other countries. But Cozumel keeps drawing us back. The ease of getting there and having such a great place to stay at Palmar makes the decision as to where to go very simple. Not only is Terry's unit 8D perfect but also the entire complex is very well maintained. The only negative I can give it is that at the time of the year that we go the pool is quite cold. It is a huge swimming pool and it would cost a fortune to heat. But the hottub is great to warm up again! We have already booked for next year as it has become an annual trip for us. If you are in to beaches, Palmar is not the place to stay. However, there is great snorkeling directly across the street. We love it because it is not a resort. It is very quiet and peaceful. Give it a try, I'm convinced you will love it.
