Summer Vacay

My husband and 10 year old daughter stayed during our first trip to Cozumel. We wanted to experience more than the resort style accomodations and found a gem in this property. El Cedral is quiet with local flair. The property itself is extremely well maintained, clean and comfortable. We would absolutely recommend to anyone! Octavio was welcoming and always ready to help, if necessary.
