My husband and I cannot say enough about this resort and the amazing staff. Our room was at Dreams but we spent most of our time at Secrets (when you stay at Dreams you have access to all amenities at Secrets). Since we spent most of our time at Secrets, our review will focus on that resort. We spent a week here in June 2026 for our 25th wedding anniversary. We did not have preferred or VIP status. The highlights for me at this resort are the location (excellent reef and beach combo) and the staff. We like to snorkel so we prefer access to the reefs and the sea life that come with it. This usually means sacrificing a sandy beach but not at Secrets Cozumel. The beach here is beautiful and spacious. You can borrow snorkeling equipment and go straight from the beach and see colorful fish. I've heard others say they saw stingrays and barracuda near the pier as well. We did not, but one morning we watched a pelican dive into the water to catch his breakfast. It is rocky near the shore and can be a bit challenging getting in and out of the water but nothing a pair of water shoes can't fix. It's well worth it when you get in the water! The staff here are absolutely amazing. They are so friendly and work very hard. They really do their very best to make sure you are enjoying yourself. The service at the restaurants, pools, bars, and beach was very good. Eloisa and the team at the Market Cafe (Kenia, Mario, Ricardo, Moises, and Gaspar) went out of their way to make our anniversary trip special. One day at lunch they surprised us with a cake then invited us back the next day for a special lunch prepared just for us by the Chef, including steak, mashed potatoes, and vegetables. It was delicious and total unexpected! We split our pool time between the pool by the beach/barefoot grill and the one by Bordeau, with the slides. Those slides were so fun!! This area was our favourite spot, it had such a fun and relaxed vibe and with lots of trees (and iguanas!) it had a "jungley" feel to it as well (I know I just made up that word!). The food was very good at both Dreams and Secrets. We tried all restaurants except Windows and enjoyed every one. Most of our breakfasts were at Market Cafe where there were lots of options and one morning we went to Oceana. Our lunches were split between the Barefoot Grill (delicious burgers, nachos, quesadillas), Oceana (very good fish and pork tacos), and the Market Cafe. All our dinners were at a la cartes, which were delicious as well, with lots of options to choose from. We also went twice to Taquera, the taco stand in the garden at Dreams. Seriously, the BEST tacos. You do not need reservations except for Hibachi (we did not try this but heard it was very good). We went to dinner around 6:00-6:30 most nights and had no issues getting seated. There was one night we had to wait about 15 minutes, which was not a problem, we just took a seat at the bar and had a drink while we waited. TIP: Not all restaurants are open every night. It took us a couple days to figure this out. Go to both the Dreams and Secrets lobbies when you arrive and they will give you a calendar for the week that tells you which restaurants are open and closed each day and also the entertainment for the day. Unless you are traveling with kids, you can take advantage of the entertainment and restaurants on both resorts. Then you can try to plan your week around the restaurants you want to try. The drinks are also very good. We tried a lot of different kinds of drinks and liked them all! I'm not sure there was any drink they couldn't make. The margaritas are the BEST - especially at the Sky Bar!! Our room was quite nice as well and came complete with a stocked bar fridge and snacks that were replenished as needed everyday. The bed was comfortable (we had a king) and always had lots of fresh towels. lots of storage, large bathroom, with a patio that overlooked the pool area (we didn't pay extra for an ocean view or swim out but those looked lovely as well). The room did smell a bit musty but it was June in Mexico, 30+ degrees and high humidity, so that should be expected. The air conditioning worked great in our room so we were never too hot and always got a good night's sleep. The entertainment was great also. We saw a fire show, acrobats, musicians, and participated in karaoke, the silent party, wine tasting and tequila tasting (Thank you sommeliers Clara and Luis!). We can't say enough about this beautiful resort. For us, it was perfect: friendly staff, great service, lots of beach and pool chairs and umbrellas, good food, beautiful beach, and relaxing vibe. We also love Cozumel in general. It's a beautiful island with lovely people, and access to amazing snorkeling and other fun excursions. We did one snorkeling excursion and took a cab into town one afternoon to explore and pick up a few souveniers (600 pesos return). We cannot wait to go back!
