Bday get together A guest from Taft, TX recommends this property. Stayed for 6 days in April, 2013 Villa Yak'alil was nearly the ideal rental for our April birthday get together. The house is large enough that our party of 12 never felt crowded. Jackie took care of any problem we had including cleaning the kitchen every day.The internet service was fast enough for to keep current on her latest blogs. Our kids enjoyed the two kayaks and I kept the bbq pit smoking. My only complaint is that the shallow water extends too far from shore for the dive boat to pick you up in front of the place. Instead we met at a pier just down the road. Each bedroom has it's own air conditioning controls and kept everyone cool. Plenty of hot and cold water in the bathrooms. We had trouble with one shower head and it was fixed as soon as I pointed it out. I highly recommend trying this place out. We plan to return next April. |

20th anniversary in Cozumel Ron F. from Midway, AR recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in February, 2013 Fantastic. Villa yak is one of the very best. Jackie and the rest of the help around the house were super. The sunsets were incredible . The house is right on the beach with greate snorkeling and dive boats came very near because it was great. Best location on island. Very quiet and just minutes from town. Villa yak deserves all 5 stars. I just hit the button wrong if it shows less You won't find a better place. |

Amazing!!!! John A. from Petoskey, MI recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in February, 2013 This was an amazing vacation, the home was absolutely beautiful and went far above what we could have even imagined. Jackie took care of the home spotlessly and went far above her duties, she was very helpful, contacted taxi's for us, helped us know different things to do and where to go, she always made sure everything was clean. We loved her. This vacation spot is wonderful. We would highly recommend this home to others. We hope that we can return sometime. It was amazing!!! |

upgrade the small things Lars C. from Port Charlotte, FL recommends this property. Stayed for 14 days in December, 2012 Our family enjoyed our two week stay very much...terrific would be the word...The staff is wonderful in every way as are the cooks..The owner, however, should invest in some small relatively inexpensive items in order to bring this home to a top notch level... |

Great house, beautiful views John S. from Reston, VA recommends this property. Stayed for 8 days in July, 2012 Overall the house was incredible, if I were to be very picky I'd say it was obvious they put big bucks into buildig a quality structure, but it seemed odd to have such a nice place with some cheap fixtures like faucets - which were surrounded by beautiful tile. Again, that's being really picky and does not take away from the overall experience. The location was great - very close to some good snorkeling locations; you must have a car/moped something to get to town and back. Get the cook service, it was delicious and they clean everything for you - you'll get spoiled and love it too :) |

Villa Yak a Lil has Everything for a Beach Vacation Anne G. from Omaha, NE recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in February, 2012 Once a year we take a week to go diving in Cozumel. We have tried everything from traditional hotels and dive resorts to waterfront condos, but Villa Yak a Lil surpassed all previous stays. The villa is situated on a private beach away from the sounds of busy hotels or other properties.We were taken by the courteous staff, the spaciousness of the home, the ample resting areas by the pool or shady hammocks. Each room has a beautiful view of the beach each with its own balcony or one nearby.We can't wait to visit villa Yak a Lil on our next visit and would highly recommend it for a group of friends or family traveling to Cozumel. |

great party house for large group, lots of space, lots to do, Gerald U. from Knoxville, TN recommends this property. Stayed for 9 days in December, 2011 Had nine wonderful days in this huge, comfortable house. Cook service was exceptional, Jackie, the housekeeper couldn't have been kinder or more helpful. Weather was perfect, beach and snorkeling so convenient. Room for everyone, spacious bathrooms, spotlessly clean. Any problems solved by Miss Jackie. Edgar, the cook went out of his way to accomodate picky eaters and vegans. Garage space for your vehicles, games and cards available. Large porch and deck and spotless infinity pool. Once in a lifetime trip for our three generations. Would return in a heartbeat. |

End of Summer Vacation Nidia A. from Humble, TX recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in August, 2011 We stayed at the villa with 3 other families for a total of 16 people and had a great time! We were a little worried that we may get tired of each other or of the loud noises made by the little ones (4 were 3 years old) but the house is big enough that you can be separated from everyone and have some me time. We paid for the cook service and we bought food for the lunch part of the day. However, we had so much good food left over from breakfast and dinner sometimes that we would not even need to make lunch. Wish we would have known how much food we were going to have so we wouldn?t have bought so much lunch items. Edgar, the cook, and his wife and niece (his assistants) did a wonderful job cooking delicious meals! The set our tables, brought the meals to the table, cleared the table and always left the kitchen spotless. We all gained some weight while there I?m sure and everyone, even the kids, ate all their food! I miss the cooked meals already. The house itself was great and roomy. Jackie was very helpful offering us tips on where to go and telling us to watch out for the taxi-mafia. A taxi cab (4ppl max) from the villa to downtown is 150 pesos, a taxi van (8ppl max) is 300 pesos. They?ll try to give you different prices each time but these prices are the norm. She did a great job cleaning the house. The kids really enjoyed the pool and didn't go to the beach that often. I would have like more beach area, less rocks and for the house to be a little closer into town. The cab drivers try to hustle you out of money and you always get different quotes even when going to the same spot. Make sure to be firm on what you're paying and ask up front what the price is. We did see a crocodile one day to the left of the house. We used the kayak the first 2 days there but after we saw the crocodile we were a little apprehensive and stuck to the right side of the beach. The hammocks were super handy and some of us even took naps in them. We vis |

Two Birthdays and a Wedding Danton H. from Abbeville, Louisiana recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in July, 2011 We had a group of 15 friends at the villa for the week. We were celebrating a 40th and 45th birthday for two of the ladies and the place was so beautiful that a couple that was getting married in the states in January decided to go ahead and get married there at the villa instead. We had a really great time and after the week was over it was hard to leave our home in Cozumel behind. The only comment I heard that may be improved on is that a few of the people said that their mattress was uncomfortable (hard). This was not my opinion though, I slept in the third floor bedroom and it was great. There is a beautiful roof top veranda but there is no furniture on it to sit out and enjoy sunrises with a cup of coffee and sunsets with a glass of wine, it needs to be furnished so that you don't have to bring the furniture from the bedroom outside. We would definately recommend this villa to anyone looking for a place in Cozumel, in fact we did just that to a couple that we met at the airport on the way home. LIFE IS GOOD!!! |

Christmas is Cozumel!! Laine L. from Hamlin, TX recommends this property. Stayed for 6 days in December, 2008 WOW....what better way to spend Christmas. When we (16 adults & 1 baby) arrrived at the house it was so much more than I had expected. The house itself is beautiful and spacious. The ocean view is breath-taking. We took full advantage of the cook service and the meals were wonderful. It was great to wake up and know that someone was downstairs cooking breakfast. Suppertime was just as good, when at the end of the day we all gathered around the tables. We rented bicyles for the week, went scuba diving from San Franscico beach, twice, and also visited Chichen Itza. Jackie was wonderful in so many ways and helped with our spanish translating skills. Thank you "At Home in Cozumel" we had a wonderful time :) |

WOW!!!!! Jim K. from Huntington Beach, CA recommends this property. Stayed for 10 days in October, 2008 I have to say you never know exactly what you might be getting yourself into when booking a vacation home online. But I have to say that this house was everything they said it would be and more. From the moment we arrived we treated like family. Jackie who lives on the property and takes care of the house was so amazing. She will make your stay in Cozumel a better experience. She kept the house so clean and was always there when we needed her. There were 10 of who stayed at the house. We had more than enough room. One of the highlights of the trip was our cook Luis. I highly recommend having a cook for the house. Everyday he was there bright and early making us an amazing breakfast. Then would be back at anytime you wanted to make us dinner. He always had such a big smile on his face. ALso many of us were diving on the trip. There is a pier within walking distance of the house that your dive company could pick us up at and drop us off at after the dive. So to sum it up. We all had such a blast staying at Villa Yak'all.We will be back there again very soon. |

Paradise minus appliances Courtney L. from Greencastle, PA recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in September, 2008 The house was beautiful and our group of eight loved it. Jackie and Javier were very helpful and nice. Jackie especially was at our beck and call for any problems or concerns. HOWEVER, we were very disappointed to arrive to an ice maker that made about 10 cubes of ice a day and a freezer that took a day to make a tray of cubes. It cost use about $20 just to get some bags of ice to use the fist day since we didn't rent a car and had to send for it. Additionally, the oven didn't work at all. Only one side of the toaster worked, but they did replace that within a day or two. About halfway though our stay the microwave also broke and wasn't replaced until the day we were leaving. The roof leaked in several places and a fan in the larger of the main floor bedroom makes a banging noise that makes sleep difficult. All in all, I think we just had some bad luck. We certainly made the best of it and still had a wonderful vacation, but all of the problems certainly made things inconvenient. I think the ice situation should have been taken care of without a charge to us. |

Perfect place to spend a family vacation! A guest from Salem, AL recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in May, 2008 The pictures on the website do not adequately show how great this house is. It far exceeded our expectations. The rooms are spacious. The view is terrific. Jackie, the caretaker, is wonderful and does a great job of keeping the house in order and answering any questions. We had 3 families and 2 babies and had a most memorable vacation. We would love to come back. Property Manager Response: Thanks for the perfect score. We tried and tried to get pictures that do the house justice but that's past our skill level. It was always a great house, but the new owners have taken it to an even higher level. Come back real soon. |

Lisa S. from Muskego, WI does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 7 days in April, 2007 Overall, it wasn't worth the money. Way overpriced for this property, and unfortunately it's changed my opinion of At Home in Cozumel as well as this type of vacation. I have been renting vacation homes specifically on Cozumel from 1 to 4 times per year for the past 12 years. I am a dedicated, repeat customer of At Home in Cozumel. This property was not worth the money. The house itself was beautiful and housekeeping was spotless. But, sparsely furnished and the pool was way too small for the property. I understand it had undergone a change of ownership just before our arrival, but then I believe our stay should have been discounted if it meant the house was't up to par. I also believe that repeat, good customers should be given a discount or some other perks. There's way too much competition for my vacation dollar and I can do better elsewhere. Case in point - I've been back to Mexico on 2 vacations since this one and just booked another - all not through At Home in Cozumel. These houses have outpriced themselves. I've seen the rental prices go higher and higher, but the properties and services are the same or lower. If you and the owners are satisfied with your customer base and rates of return, then no need to change...congrat's. If not, there are things you could do to improve. For those owners who really want to rent and make money, I hope they know that they could be doing much better. |
