Paradise Beach All-Inclusive - Better Than Sanchos? - Cozumel, Mexico
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 апр 2022
- I recently took advantage of the all-inclusive Paradise Beach experience while in the port of Cozumel, Mexico. Paradise Beach offers an all-inclusive package, which includes all food and drinks, access to their large pool, beach access with loungers and umbrellas included, and access to water toys.

Cozumel, Mexico offers many all-inclusive beach days, particularly for cruise ship guests. Previously, I had visited Mr. Sanchos, another all-inclusive experience in Cozumel, but this was my first time at Paradise Beach. Watch as I compare the two experiences and give you my honest review of Paradise Beach and all it has to offer.
The Celebrity Edge is a revolutionary ship for Celebrity Cruises, one of the leading luxury cruise lines in the world. The Celebrity Edge currently sails 7-night voyages from Fort Lauderdale, Florida but will soon head to Europe for a season in the Mediterranean for summer of 2022.

Thank you for sharing, You gave me the courage to do a solo cruise! AMAZING so peaceful and fun!
That’s so good to hear! I hope you enjoy and have the best time. Thank you for watching and for the nice comment. 😊
Awesome video and the music OMG spot on, really enjoyed it. I am going to Nachi resort for Christmas but I will definitely have this place on our next time list.
Thanks for watching!
I really love Cozumel! I was there about three years ago on _Norwegian Jade_ . A great ship and port!
Thank you for the information and video... the beach looks so beautiful & the food looks so good
Thanks for watching!
I'm so ready for this!
Well apparently there were three flukes. The water is usually clear, beautiful green blue. May have had some weather earlier that stirred things up. I could see it on the beach itself, and as always they were promptly cleaning it up. The staff there is amazing, taking such pride in their work and the resort itself. 👏
The pool has always been wonderful. I usually spend the last half of my day there. First half in that Coconut Grove. It's listed as the largest outdoor heated pool in Cozumel. Ya gotta stick more than your toes in there to get acclimated to it though. 😉
Internet is hit or miss anywhere. I've never had a problem but then I rarely use it. It could be out and I wouldn't know it.
Maybe the pool heater and wifi were on the same circuit breaker, lol.
Glad you went. It really is beautiful there. And THAT FOOD!! All of it is fresh and delicious! The service has always been to notch. And yes, watching the drunks on the inflated beach toys is hysterical! I've been to Paradise 8 out of 11 visits to Cozumel. I'll never go anywhere else. I've even booked cruises to Cozumel SPECIFICALLY to spend a day at this resort. If they had a hotel I'd fly in and stay there.
It was a great place to spend the day. And I’m sure I’ll be back on future visits to Cozumel! The staff was definitely the best, they didn’t stop working on the beach the entire day. Great place - thanks for the recommendation and for watching. 👍🏻
We haven’t been to this resort or Mr Sanchos, but I was really surprised how empty this resort was. Looks like a fun relaxing day with a lot of places to get some cool photo ops. Thanks for sharing Zach!
Thanks for watching! It was a great day, with very few people around, and I can’t wait to go back.
Mr Sanchos is a hit and miss! Trying Paradise Island in December
If you haven't done Nachi Cocum do try it. Much more laid back of course but we love that, I always go there on every Cozumel stop! Cheers and thanks for the video, watching it fully now to see if Paradise is my thing. Cheers!
Hmmm I was considering another all-inclusive beach day for my trip to Cozumel in August, but I think I might go with this one. Thanks for the review!
Of course, thanks for watching!
Zach! Your videos are the best!!! You gotta put them out more frequently!! PLEASE!!!
Thank you so much, Morgan! I wish I could travel more to put out videos more frequently. But more frequent content from me will be coming this summer! 😉
@@ZachtheTravelingMan That sounds great sir!! SAFE TRAVELS!!
Looks amazing and for $50 that a great deal for good included. I will have to remember this for any cruise we are on that goes to Cozumel.
Yes definitely try it out. I know I’ll be going back! Thanks for watching. 😊
@@ZachtheTravelingMan Normally if it is a port that we have been to (such as Cozumel) we don’t necessarily get off the ship unless we liked something at that port. Cozumel and Costa Maya are two we don’t get off the ship because none of the excursions ever excite us. But now….
Another spot on recommendation from Zach! Thanks again! I went last week on your suggestion and it was just about darn near perfect! It was a little more crowded, but not bad, plus we even got one of the day beds beside the pool. The pool wasn’t too cold…haha…It was so nice. The service and food were excellent! I’d definitely go back!
Thanks for watching, Michael! I’m so glad you enjoyed your time there. I already can’t wait to go back - and I used to dread calling on Cozumel! What a difference an experience like this can make.
Why is that place so empty?
There were only two ships in Port that day and mine had only 700 people.
@@ZachtheTravelingMan o
Their website says their pool is heated?
Great review. Thank u
Thanks for watching!
Been there loved it great price great food and drinks!
Great review, thank you. That water seemed very brownish I always wonder what goes into our beautiful oceans.
It was only that way because of the strong currents the day I was there. They assured me it’s usually much better.
I know this was a while ago, I did Mr. Sanchos in Oct. when I did a Virgin cruise. it was pretty good, I enjoyed it but this one does look better, I have to book another trip to check it out. lol
we've been there. it's a hidden gem for sure. going back again in Nov!
I hope you have a great time! It’s a lovely place.
@@ZachtheTravelingMan check out Nachi Cocom in Cozumel. It's another hidden gem. That's my hubby's favorite. Mine is Paradise Beach.
I will definitely try it out next time I’m there!
I've done a few surface intervals at Paradise Beach and meant to come back sometime for amenities. Not sure if it's worth the price for a non-drinker, but the staff has always been friendly to us divers.
I think it is only $5 and they ask that you spend $10 if you do not want the all inclusive. I am going next month.
Great information - thanks for sharing!
I have read up on this beach and considering the day here when we stop in Cozumel. We tried Chankanaab and did not really care for it, we actually turned down the lunch as it didn’t look safe to eat and really wasn’t much to choose from. But you said the pool was cold, however Paradise Beach advertises this as a heated pool so I’m a little confused.
The ambiance of the atmosphere looks nice. I guess everyone was at the popular Mr. Sanchos. It seemed to have more amenities with water sports, shopping, a spa, food, and clear water. If you prefer quiet, beauty & maybe not get in the ocean, Paradis it is. I am booked for Mr. Sanchos and was hoping this video wouldn’t have made me change my mind; it didn’t. I may go try it on another visit if I want to be on a more exclusive beach resort.
The two are so close in comparison, you really can’t go wrong with either!
You can get in the ocean at Paradise beach in was just there. And it's actually better
@@techhidotnetWas the water clear when you went?
April 2023. The price was $65.00 for me and $45.00 for my teenage son.
nice video im going in july this year says they have a heated pool now how was the food
I wonder if the water looks that murky other times of the year. I live on the Gulf Coast where the beaches are white and the water is beautiful. We are going on a cruise to Cozumel and I was hoping the water was clear.
Good video . I am shocked at how empty is was . All of the other videos i have seen its been jam-packed ! What month did you go ? Maybe off-season ? I am going to Memorial Day weekend, so i expect it to be crowded
It looks amazing but the view is all the watesports stuff!!!
Thanks for the review, switching from sanchos to paradise based on your review. Any recommendations for excursions in Montego bay? 2adults and an 11 year old boy. Thanks again
Thanks for watching! I’ve not done anything in Montego Bay yet, unfortunately.
Great vlog! Are Beach slides extra?
No, they’re included in the cost!
awesome vid thanks. rating the resorts. paradise 9/10 el cid day pass 9/10 mr sanchos 7/10 nachi cocom 6/10 chankaanab park gets an 8/10.....not crazy about the fire coral at SF beach and mr. sancho
Thanks for watching! I’ll have to try one of the other ones next time I visit.
Great footage I’m going back to Cozumel at the end of May how did you book before your trip? On their site or excursion the ship offered. Just wondering thanks 😊 so much
Thanks, Diane! I booked directly through their website. As far as I know, the ship doesn’t offer an excursion here. Just google them and you should find the link to secure your spot.
@@ZachtheTravelingMan ok thank you 😊
Did you find it easy to get there on your own? I will be travelling there by myself in April.
Great Vlog Zach. Did the wifi pick up again?
Thank you! It never did return. :(
Thanks for sharing your videos. I'm going on a cruise Allure of the Seas in May. And, one of my stop is at Cozumel. Do you recommend that I should go check out the Paradise Beach?
Absolutely! It's a great excursion while in Cozumel. You really can't beat it.
Do you have a suggestion for a beach at costa maya. We have been to krazy Lobster and loved it but wanted to try something different . In Cozumel
We have been to Mr Sanchez but never here . Thanks for the video will like and follow.
Take a short taxi south from the port area to Mahahual. There are hotels here that will let you use their chairs and WiFi and restrooms so long as you order food and drink from them. A nice beach away from the ship crowds of the port but with the port still in sight.
Damn I was there in 2014!
Looks so relaxing. How far did you have to walk to get to the beach from the registration area? Is it easily accessible for those with mobility issues?
It was not far from the beach at all. Maybe a 2-3 minute walk. It did seem accessible for those with mobility issues. No stairs or anything to speak of.
Great review! Did they have a walk-up pool bar like Mr. Sanchos?
Unfortunately, they did not when I visited. You had to get out of the pool to get to the bar.
@@ZachtheTravelingMan Bummer as that's why we love Mr. Sanchos so much!
Swim up bars give such a fun vibe!
great video. I am registered for Mr Sancho's in august. I was under the impression that these all inclusive beach venues are jam packed by noon and you mentioned that it was 1:15 and I could see many many vacant loungers. Please describe the crowd and it appeared that paradise has a lot more beach than Mr Sanchos. Is that accurate?
Yes it is a bit larger. The crowd was very light and I think that’s partly due to the reduced capacity now on ships.
Was at Sancho's this weekend and they have SO MANY tables and chairs packed in there now you can barely walk through them.... also they have only 2 rows of lounge chairs and the chair edges are in the water.... so no beach to take a walk on that's for sure.... going to Paradise from no on because everything is SO nice and not ever crowded!
Hello!
Thank you for the recommendation! We are not really interested in purchasing the all inclusive package. Do you happen to know if there is an entrance fee? And if so, is there a minimum to spend?
Hi there - thanks for watching. Pricing has changed since I visited so make sure to check their website for the latest.
Hi!! Do they give you towels or do we have to bring our own? Going to book this for our Dec cruise on oasis of the seas! :)
Hi Christine! Definitely take your own towel from the ship, as they do not provide any. Thanks for watching!
I’m interested in a public beach . Any suggestions?
I watched both your vids on this and Sanchos. I booked this one for the vloggers cruise in January. Which did you prefer, this or Mr. Sanchos,, and why? Thanks!
Thanks for watching them both! I preferred this one slightly over Sancho’s because of the huge pool. Otherwise they are basically the same.
@@ZachtheTravelingMan thanks!
Price as of June 24, 2022 $59.00.
Thank you for the update!
Price of now for May 2023 $64.00
Thanks for sharing. It just keeps going up!
I imagine the price is per person, right?
@@deeelisa1890 right
I was wondering about the water in Cozumel. The only bad reviews I see are related to the water being “dirty” and brown, etc. I wonder if the time of year makes a difference.
Time of year and water currents make a huge difference for sure.
What kind of difference? Like is the water clearer in summer or winter?
I have been a few times and it was beautiful water.
Could you please show me how to buy a ticket and how to get there? This is my first time cruising and we will be in Cozumel this July. I appreciate it.
ParadiseBeachCozumel dot com
So which do you prefer, Mr. Sanchos or Paradise? I’m traveling with two teenagers, 18 and 15. I did Mr. Sanchos this past January for the first time and it was nice. I wasn’t like, omg I have to go back though.
That’s how I felt about it too. I liked Paradise a bit better - I enjoyed the environment there, especially the beautiful landscaping, a lot more than at Sanchos. Plus the huge pool they have there is very nice! The only thing I missed from Sanchos was the coconut shrimp they have. Other than that, Paradise it is!
Thanks! This is exactly the question I was going to ask. Paradise it is!
@@LetsAllCruise we ended up doing Paradise and I liked it so much more than Sanchos!
I preferred Paradise over Sanchos!
Question Zach! You mentioned that your all-inclusive was $50....when did You visit? Your vlog streamed 11 days ago.
Hi there! I visited the first week of February 2022.
@@ZachtheTravelingManthanks for thr information, where did you purchase this package?
Directly through Paradise Beach. Just do a google search for them and you’ll find all the info on how to reserve your spot.
Prices went up in May 2022. About $10-15 dollars.
Thanks for letting me know, Rebecca!
Any issue with getting a taxi back to port? I know they are lined up at Sanchos.
I never have had an issue getting a taxi in Cozumel!
does anyone know if it’s always this quiet there? we’re booked for august & i would love to be somewhere without a crowd.
Probably not this quiet now that cruise ship capacity has increased. We only had 700ish people on our ship the day I visited.
If you’re looking for a quiet all inclusive, Nachi Cocom is the one
Do you recommend planning through a cruise excursion. Or just get a taxi to the locations and pay there?
I recommend booking on the Paradise Beach website ahead of time. You can pay a deposit and then the full amount once you arrive. You can’t book this through the cruise line.
What do you do with your "stuff" while you are swimming??? Do they have lockers?
I did not see any lockers. I just kept my stuff in a chair by the water and kept my eyes on it while I enjoyed the ocean.
what is the massage cost?
Was there music on Paradise Beach of any sort?
Just through speakers, no live music.
Did you pay for the excursion before or after getting off the boat
I booked this through Paradise Beach before leaving for my trip. It has to be booked directly through them as it’s not sold by any cruise line.
Zach, the water looked like it had alot of stuff in it, not clear. Do you know if it's always like that?
Hi Alisha, from what I heard from several folks who have been there, that’s not usually the case. There could have been some currents the morning or evening before I visited that brought this in, but it’s not normal apparently. Thanks for watching!
@@ZachtheTravelingMan thank you! Love your videos!
Thank you so much! 😊
We were there first week of May, crystal clear water. Must have been the currents that day. The water is rocky tho, water shoes are recommended.
@@rebeccarodriguez7035 Always ask for section 1 or 2 when you are being seated..... they are the sections all the way to the right by the BIG beach front bar and by the massages.... it is SANDY... while the beach on the side of the pier is rocky right when you get in the water....
Hey Zack you mentioned the rate was $50 pp. How did you book it?
Hi. I booked directly through their website. Just Google it and you’ll find all the information to book. Thanks for watching!
I love Paradise Beach! Not to many people when you were there, never seen the water that color, looks brown...
It was very lovely and not crowded at all. Can’t wait to go back!
So...maybe I missed it, but what was the conclusion, is this better than Mr. Sancho's or not?
Did they have the fish spa like Mr Sancho?
Not that I saw.
Why is there prices on the menu? If it's all included, I'd be super sketched to get a big bill at the end
I think people can just come to the beach and order food without the all-inclusive package, so the prices are for those kinds of orders.
Is it wheelchair accessible from the pool area to the pier?
To the best of my knowledge it is. There were no stairs between the pool and the beach.
Hi Elizabeth! Did you happen to visit this place? I am in manual wheelchair just wondering how did it go?
Did you book thru Carnival or on Paradise Beach sight?
I booked through Paradise Beach’s website.
@@ZachtheTravelingMan got ours booked for January!! I can’t wait!
The ad says the pool is heated!
Who did you book through?
Directly through Paradise Beach on their website.
Prices as of July 2023 $69
Did they have coconut shrimp?….if so…how was it?
Yes and it was amazing!
Can you book or pay on arrival or does it need to be pre booked
When I went you paid a deposit online when you book and then the remaining amount the day of.
Do they have all the extras like horseback riding and fish pedicure?
I’m not certain on those activities as I did not see them the day I was there.
How much were massages?
I’m not sure. I did not ask about that.
😂 do you need to make reservations and how?..how do you get there?
Thoughts over Mr. Sanchos?? We are coming on Carnival Valor in June and want to book one of those...want relaxing vibe..
I’d choose Paradise over Sanchos. Both are great, but something about that huge pool (much larger than Sanchos) and ambiance at Paradise that will really get you right into relaxing. A larger food selection at Paradise as well. Check it out!
Definitely Paradise without question or hesitation.
How do u book ths resort?? Is there a direct website
Yes! Just google "Paradise Beach Cozumel" and you should be able to find that!
Is it $15.00 for the entire cab or $15.00 per person?
For the whole cab.
I thought the pool was heated.. am I wrong?
I heard that also but couldn’t tell the day I visited.
What are the hours ?
8 am to 5 pm
Why don’t you answer any of the questions that the viewers answer? Or, when we’re you there? Was this booked through the cruise lin?
Hi, I always do my best to answer as many questions as I can. I receive hundreds a week so might miss a few. I was there in January 2022. You cannot book this through the cruise line. Thanks.
2023 prices $64/person does not include toys or inflatables which are $18/person extra
Still includes all food and drinks.
Thanks for the update.
does American need visa for Cozumel?
Not if you’re visiting by cruise ship.
Do you have to book it ahead of time online or something? or just pay as you get there?
You should book ahead of time to ensure there is space for you. I’ve heard of folks not making a reservation and being turned away. Even with booking ahead of time you only pay a deposit and then the full amount the day of.
@@ZachtheTravelingMan Thanks man! That helps a lot
Have you been to nachi cocom yet just to be to compare them
Not yet but I will be going there very soon. ;)
Is this beach accessible?
To my best knowledge it is. There were no stairs between the pool and the beach.
That water doses not look prettty looks like Galveston Tx water
Why is the water so brown???????
Water currents can make it that way. It's not normally that brown.
What’s wrong with the water it’s not clear
Ocean currents dictate that - it’s usually more clear than the day I was there.
Water looks very brown.
It all depends on the ocean current. It’s usually not like that from what I was told.
nice place, but the beach water is brown.....
That all depends on water currents. Unfortunately there was some weather around the time I was there and it caused the water to be a bit brown. I understand that it is not usually like that.
But Eww that's not exactly beautiful water there on the beach. Please say there were spots that the water was clear?
Not on the day I visited. But it all depends on the weather and currents.
We were there on April 12, 2022 and had crystal clear water.... depends if they had a thunderstorm with rough currents the day before or not... and of course currents...
Sancho's has also been like that before when I went....
PARADISE all the way for me!
