Overall Ratings & Reviews The Explorean Cozumel - All Inclusive

The rooms have no tv! Great to disconnect from the world! Comfortable rooms! Great WiFi! Food was not the best but the daily activities that are included every day makes this place the very best in the island to vacation!

Staff was incredible, food was delicious, property was well maintained and quiet. The daily excursions that are included with your stay each day were amazing. Our tour guides were the best and the quality of this included perk alone makes me want to return. Highly recommend

This is a beautifully designed hotel that is surrounded by lush greenery. There’s a pool in a beautiful setting with lots of options for lounging if you don’t want to be in full sun. I loved that you also have the option to use the facilities at the Fiesta American if you want full sun and a DJ! The combination of the 2 facilities was great because you just have more options. But I always really liked the difference from being at the Fiesta American, beach and pool and then going back to the Explorean where it was more cool and quiet. Perfect for families with small children! Lots of indoor/outdoor restaurants with high ceilings and fresh healthy food. And other little things like a coffee, ice cream and pastry bar from 10 - 10 for caffeine and sugar addicts. Staff was super nice and helpful and there was a different option each day for a field trip. The boat trip to go snorkeling got me back in the groove with snorkeling again after 25 years, and then I discovered that the snorkeling right off the beach at the hotel was just as great! (There are decks with ladders to easily get into the water as this is not a wide sandy beach.)

Explorean Cozumel has been our hotel for the last several years. Several kilometers south of town, it is much closer to dive sites than many other hotels. Good choice of restaurants. Welcoming and helpful staff. And they have done a lot of important maintenance work since the last time we came in 2023, when the place was hurting badly from weathering Covid.

We’ve stayed at the Explorean twice now and it’s really the only place we want to stay. The only downside is that they try to get you into an hour and a half presentation for a membership. That is the only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars overall. The staff here are simply the best, very, very friendly and accommodating. The staff actually make this the best.

Private, clean, and beautiful. The perfect Mexico getaway. The size of the resort makes it a more intimate experience allowing you to make bonds with both the staff and the other travelers. Iguanas can be seen meandering through the grounds. The location is a quick walk to the ocean. And scattered throughout the resort is a variety of restaurants. The staff is more than happy to accommodate your needs and are incredibly kind.

Loved our time at explorean. Loved waking up and sitting outside while the birds sitting right on the rails. The options for excursions every day and of course the access to the amenities.

The Explorean Cozumel was an amazing experience. The room was clean and modern. The food was delicious. And the activities were fun, but the icing on the cake was the superior staff. I would rate this property 10/10.

Great location

liked to smaller more intimate areas

We loved our peaceful and relaxing stay at the Explorean. The property is quiet and serene—perfect for unwinding. If you're ever in the mood for more activity, the lively atmosphere at Fiesta Americana is just next door. Be aware that they will try to pitch a timeshare presentation. You may have to firmly decline multiple times before they take no for an answer. A special shoutout to Jared, our favorite server and bartender. He went above and beyond to take care of us and genuinely cared about making our stay enjoyable. The food and drinks were decent, and the location is great—you’re not far from popular beach clubs. Plus, the property has its own pier, making it super convenient if you're planning any boat excursions.

Staff was very nice and helpful. We had a very relaxing time and the food was delicious.

The staff was attentive and friendly.

A wonderful place to stay and relax. Great staff throughout the entire resort!

Great place to relax

Food: 9/10 Restaurants were very good. Not a bad choice amongst any of them. Buffet breakfast was diverse enough and the food was great. We honestly did not have one bad meal here. They had Asian, Mexican, Italian, a grill, ceviche bar and a few others and everything we had was amazing. Drinks: 3/10 Very very very hard to get drunk. Mixed drinks taste generally all the same. Liquor must be watered down. Beer and wine seem untouched. Wife doesn’t really drink, has somewhere north of 8 drinks and didn’t have a buzz. You can start drinking at 11am which is pretty late imo, and all alcohol served is cutoff at 1045. Could be for safety but idk, maybe to make it a more family friendly environment. Our 6 days spent there, not a single drunk person was seen. Nightlife: 5/10 Activities are the ONLY nightlife on the resort. They were fun, but nobody did them (or tailored to children in which case nobody showed up still) and they only lasted an hour. Afterwards, the place turns into a ghost town. Service: 10/10 Everyone was extremely nice, helpful, spoke your language or at least tried to fluently converse. All inconveniences for the guest were essentially taken care of by the staff. The only thing to say here is that the service COULD be a bit faster but that’s a viewfrom an American take it as you will. Room/Cleanliness: 9/10 The entire island is VERY conservative and caring for their environment, especially the reefs. The resort itself was super clean considering that it’s basical

Great place. Go there

The staff was the nicest of any resort we have stayed at.

Explorean was absolutely amazing. From the food to the daily activities that they provided. I will be returning! I was very happy with my experience at this all inclusive resort.

The Explorean had a pool and dining area to itself as well as access to all the restaurants and pool at the Fiesta Americana Hotel in front on the Explorean. The cabana style quad rooms were very nice and secluded in a jungle environment.
