Alex G.
Keizer, OR, United StatesA time well spent, I place I would gladly return to again!
Left on 04/19/2013 for a stay in April 2013
The unit was very good. We enjoyed it! A kitchen could be better stocked. We read online that the kitchen was poorly stocked and the knives were dull. So, we brought our own set of knives, which turned out to be a good decision. We could not use any of the property's knives. It would be nice to have a tea pot, an obvious missing item. The matresses were of very poor quality. We were actually surprised that such a nice property would fail to invest in quality matress. A matress would be sach a small expece, but would make a world of difference for the owner or the guest.
It was very nice to have a phone in the room. The TV was a plus.
The maid service was prompt and efficient. Thank you.
The staff was always curtious and eager to help.
We did enjoy our stay and would gladly return to this property, given the opportunity. Thank you! -

Left on 04/15/2013 for a stay in March 2013
We really enjoyed our stay at Residencias Reef. The condo was clean, and other than the hard bed, was very comfortable. Orlando and Esther took very good care of all of our needs. The pool and beach was perfect. It was a fair distance from town but cabs were readily available and we rented a vehicle for a day. The snorkeling off the beach wasn't very good this year but we were told by other guests that it was usually better. I would definitely stay here again!

Left on 03/14/2013 for a stay in February 2013
overall our stay was very good. when we arrived the condo very moldy smelling. we had to buy air fresheners to get rid of the smell. the condo was clean and everything worked. the dishes were old and a lot of them were cracked which can be a major health hazard, we could not use them. the knives were rusted and old, this was shown to the manager Orlando. the pots and pans were old and very meager. we knew some of this based on reviews we had read so we brought our own chef knife and frying pan and managed pretty well as i(Jose) cook alot. shopping in town was very good and ingrdients purchased there were excellent. the patio furniture was basically unusable and was shown to Orlando. he managed to get some better furniture for us. the owner should take more pride in his or her property and update things on a regular basis, especially the mold smell. that smell was in all suit cases and clothing when we got back home. the grounds and pools were excellent. the staff here were amazing, from the security who would remember us after the first day( amazing )to our very hard working maid Estre and the manager (Orlando) who checked on us regularly and aided us in rentals etc. this young man is going places. we would recommend this place to stay, but hope the owner does some upgrading. we would definately come back here. one more thing, this complex should at least set up a central bar b que that all could use. this also makes a good place for people to meet. a special thanks to Orlando.

Hopewell Jct, New York, United StatesGreat Condo Complex
Left on 12/17/2012 for a stay in December 2012
The place is spotless and modern. Maid service is great. It's not a party location but there is a dive outfit right on the beach (not associated with Condos). They will set you up for your dive package. Carry/clean your gear daily (they do expect a tip for the service). The one and only thing I didn't like was the sheets on the bed. They were rough and uncomfortable compared to what I'm used to at home. The bed was also a bit short. So if you're very tall your feet will hang out.

These were minor issues. I would gladly stay there again. -

Left on 03/03/2012 for a stay in April 2011
Our family had one rental, 2 bedroom, 2 bath second floor, our friends had rental above us, on third floor. Rooms were well furnished, clean, AC worked just fine, Third floor also had hottub on the roof. We played in one of the two pools each day, and walked right out onto the beach from the property. It was 14 km from town but it was nice to be away from the crowds coming in on the cruise ships. Plus Paradise beach was just up the road. Security Guards were very helpful with directions. Full Kitchen, which made making breakfast and other meals very realistic for us and our kids.

Moscow, ID, United StatesResidencias Reef Condo's 8180
Left on 01/19/2012 for a stay in January 2012
We had an excellent stay at the Residencias Reef and unit 8180. Our housekeeper was delightful and very accomodating.
This is a nice and quiet unit and well set up for two couples.
The unit had internet, but was not wireless. The TV's shown in each bedroom are not hooked up to cable or satellite so only the set in the Family area was usable. The latter was not a big deal as we were there for diving, the beach, and warm weather break from the northern winter climates.
Thank you Raul for helping us to feel at home and making our stay wonderful. I would go back:) -
San Jose, CADo Not rent unit 8180. Do not be fooled by the pictures.
Left on 04/27/2011 for a stay in April 2011
The property was enjoyable. The service was outstanding. However, there were many things wrong with the unit. All in all it was a very frustrating experience that gives Residencias Reef a bad name. It was a 4 star location and property with a 2 star unit. It looks good in pictures, but the reality is very different. Most of the appliances did not work or there were problems with them. There was a bad mold problem in one bathroom. The attached bedroom smelled really bad even after the mold was cleaned and was barely habitable because of it. The only usable knife was broken and hard to use. The TV was password protected. The furniture was really cheap just like the cooking utensils. One couch was torn. The walls had chips from water stains. On the second to last day, I learned the owner had been notified a year ago of the problems. It's very frustrating that you rent this unit with all of its problems.

Bloomington, MN+refrigerator not cold enough...
Left on 04/07/2011 for a stay in April 2011
+refrigerator not cold enough and had water leaking onto the floor. We lost quite a bit of food.
+Drier vent not connected to exhaust
+drinking water base leaking
+2nd BR ceiling fan not working
+no table on deck
+plastic deck chair essentially not
useable because they collapsed to near
a horizontal position
+one cloth chair on deck coming apart
+ A/C in Master BR leaking water and it was dealt with by Maintenance quickly. I suspect the condensate drain was plugged. It's an easy fix and should be put on a periodic inspection checklist.
This property needs a fairly complete inspection and management should conduct a quick inspection periodically--this would involve a fairly simple checklist and wouldn't take more than 15 minutes. -

Left on 11/09/2010 for a stay in October 2010
Arrival to Residencias Reef was a great experience. The cab ride to the condo was around $15.00 us. Once arrived was let in by a very friendly guard and got help with a rental car from next door at the resort. $44.00 per day. Our room had problems with the air conditioner and the manager camer to the condo that evening to move us to another room. It was beautiful!!! He had alot of great suggestions for my trip and made sure we were very comfortable. The grounds, pools, beach, staff and other residents are amazing!!! I will definately be back on my next visit to beautiful Cozumel!

We never did figure out ow to work the dvd player. Also it was not possible to access allthe tv channels-it would be nice to have instructions for these things. We also had trouble making local phone calls. There was tv noise from the condo next door late at night which Javier helped us with.

Quiet and away from the circus that the cruise ships bring to town. Beach 50 yards from the villas. If you want entertainment, Carlos and Charlies is a short walk down the beach. Very clean villa and the grounds are well maintained. A great place to spend a few days in Cozumel.

Cameron, WIResidencias Reef is a great development but this unit is neglec
Left on 01/19/2010 for a stay in January 2010
Great location,great property. This unit is nice, clean overall and was convenient to the beach and pool. I recommend this unit but I do have a few complaints. There are no sharp knives. Bring your own can opener cause the one there is worthless. Bring a cheese grater. Terrible pans. Tiny coffee cups, no mugs. Dishwasher, but be sure to bring your own dishwasher detergent. The red couches you see in the pictures are disgustingly dirty. I suggest to immediately cover them with a sheet. The air conditioner in 1 bedroom is always on and the air conditioner in the other bedroom is always off. Their are no controls on the units to turn them on or off, and the remote controls are no where to be found. Plan on spending some time plunging the toilets.
The beds are slightly better than sleeping on a board. We really did enjoy staying here, but these are things we had to "put up with". Not huge issues, but I feel it is only right that they are disclosed so you know what you are getting into. -

Overall we are very happy with the property we rented. There were a few minor things we thought were odd, such as sheets that seemed a bit old -- tiny holes, but they were clean. All of the staff, especially the maid, were friendly and helpful. We would rent here again.

We had a wonderful time at the Residencias Reef # 8180. The facility is very nice and well kept. This specific condo was nicely furnished and comfortable. The management staff was helpful and easy to contact when we needed them. We met other people at the pool who have been coming back to stay at these condos for over four years. It is someplace we would come back to and recommend to others.

- should have lock/key for sliding glass door to go to the beach without having to exit to the parking lock to lock up.
- need a few things in the kitchen: a decent can-opener, sugar packets would be nice.
- smell from 8170 floor drain -- could be that its trap has run dry (try pouring a litre of water down) -

Ther were 4 of us in a 2 bedroom unit. Pleny of room for all of us. the security staff and manager on site were very friendly and helpful when asked. The grounds and pools were kept very clean and the beach was great. Within walking distance to the Wyndem resort as well as a couple of beach resteraunts and plenty of activities ie parasailing, jet boats, bannana boats, mini sailboats. The scuba diving from here is awesome. Lots of choices and pickup on the beach dock.

Copperas Cove, TX, United StatesGreat Vacation
Left on 06/16/2008 for a stay in May 2008
We had a phenomenal time in Cozumel. The Condo was very nice, the beds were a bit hard for our taste but overall the condo was fantastic. Located South of town, away from cruise ship patrons and crowds. You will need a rental car, be sure to get the insurance. We highly recommend the cook, the meals were phenomenal, well worth price. The pools were very nice, the beach did not offer much snorkel opportunity, but plenty down the road. Most dive boats pick up at the dock, very convenient. Go ahead, splurge!
Response from At Home In Cozumel Inc - 06/30/2008
Manager
We seem to get pretty much nothing but praise about the units we manage at the Residencias Reef. With reason, we like to think. That beach and that view are great. And as you noted, the cook service is great. Our cooks are people who have been taught to cook genuine, traditional foods and love preparing food for our guests.

We would be delighted to stay at the same condo next year. There was a little problem with hot water, but the staff was very responsive when it was brought to their attention. The 3 ring binder at the condo had lots of useful information about taxi rates and car rentals. The pool and beach were beautiful and quiet.

The only complaint i had was that it was too far away from everything, and taxis were very expense, for our family of 5 they charged us 25$ usd one way. So we rented a car, otherwise you felt stranded there.
