5A fantastic beach day!
We had a great time! I loved that there were different sections at this park. There was a water park near the entrance, as well as a large beach with tons of chairs and umbrellas. The beach itself had sections for adult only and families. We also added the Mexican Flavors to our day pass and Jazmin and Yolanda were such a delight! They made lunch very fun and engaging, I only wished I could’ve eaten everything offered!
1Disappointment and Health Hazard
I was very disappointed with the Mexican "cooking" class. The only things we were able to do hands on were the guacamole and pressing of tortillas. No recipes were offered for take home. The staff focused their attention on select people and when we asked for recipes, we were told they were too difficult for us to have. Also to note, I stated that I had an allergy at the beginning of the class. One of the items smelled like it had the allergen in it but they repeatedly stated that it did not. This was false as I had a reaction after ingesting it. This disregard for health is concerning. The beach club itself needs quite a bit of work done on it. In the restroom, only 1 of 3 sinks worked. Music was blasting like you were in the middle of a club. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a luxe experience to give KUZÁ a pass until they make improvements. The pricing was not in line with the experience at all.
4Fun Beach Day at Kuza
We visited Cozumel for a beach day at Kuza, taking the ferry from Playa Del Carmen. We were earlier than planned but sat on the clean, sandy beach until the class was ready to start. Yasmin (teacher?), Yolanda (assistant?), and David (photographer) were very friendly and helpful. Both alcoholic and non-alcohohic drinks were offered even before the actual class started. We each had our own equipment and made the most amazing guacamole (I didn't know you should only use Haas avocados!), hand made tortillas and then ate it all plus tacos. The women wore local dress and showed the traditional way of making corn meal. It was definitely a well done small group class. The rest of the day was spent at the beach where there were plenty of loungers available, pavilions scattered around, and towels available to rent if needed. Water activities, hair braiding, etc. was also offered at an additional cost. The entire outing was not only reasonably priced but made for a fun day that I would gladly repeat. The only disappointment was the buffet that was included. It wasn't bad but the quality of the food was nothing special, especially after the wonderful taste of the food in the cooking class. I should mention that there are specialty items were available at an additional cost from the restaurant that seemed to be more appetizing.
5Great new Cozumel Beach and Adventure Club
We spent our cruise port day at Kuza’s beach club. We did the all inclusive along with the cultural culinary experience. It was wonderful day and the experience was fun. The staff were friendly and wanted to ensure we had a great day.
5Great way to spend a day
Excellent way to spend a day ! Beautiful beach friendly staff excellent food and drink !! Love !!!!!
5A must do excursion
We had an amazing experience at Kuza Beach. Bernice is a fantastic historian and storyteller of the Mexican flavors. Then getting to experience the beautiful beach and turquoise waters was a cherry on top. We hope to visit again.

About Cozumel
Cozumel is a flat, reef-ringed island off Mexico's Yucatán coast, famed for diving, Maya ruins and calm turquoise water on its sheltered west side.
Cozumel lies about twenty kilometres off the Yucatán coast, a short ferry ride from Playa del Carmen. The main town, San Miguel, faces the mainland with a waterfront promenade, a plaza and small museums, while most of the island is flat jungle and quiet coast. The western side, where the sea is calm, holds the beach clubs and snorkelling spots, and the wild windward east coast has rough surf and empty sand.
Top-ranked sights in Cozumel: Akumal, Chankanaab Adventure Beach Park, Playa El Cielo.
