Is Perfect Day at CocoCay Good for Multi-Generational Families?
Your cruise ship is docking in Cozumel, and the only thing on your family's agenda is “beach day.” But as the Family C.E.O., you know that not all beaches are created equal, especially with a large group. You need amenities, clean bathrooms, food, and activities. The solution is a day pass to a beach club.
Cozumel is famous for its all-inclusive and à la carte beach clubs that cater directly to cruise passengers. They are a short taxi ride from the port and provide a safe, convenient, and activity-packed home base for the day. For a multi-generational group, choosing one with a variety of features is key to ensuring everyone, from toddlers to teens to grandparents, has a wonderful time.
While there are many great options, here are two of the best family beach clubs in Cozumel:
- Paradise Beach Cozumel. This is a fantastic à la carte option, meaning you only pay for what you consume after a small entry fee. It's known for its massive, fun “iceberg” inflatable water park, which is a huge draw for kids and teens. It also has the largest heated pool in Cozumel, offering a great alternative to the saltwater. This flexibility makes it great for groups who may not eat or drink enough to justify an all-inclusive price.
- Mr. Sancho's Beach Club. This is one of the most popular all-inclusive options. For a set price, your family gets unlimited food and drinks, access to two large pools (one with a swim-up bar), and use of kayaks and hammocks. They also have an inflatable water park, an aquatic climbing wall, and optional add-ons like horseback riding and parasailing. The all-inclusive model is perfect for a stress-free day where you never have to pull out your wallet.
Both clubs offer a fantastic experience with plenty of space for large groups. The choice comes down to your family's preference: the pay-as-you-go flexibility of Paradise Beach or the all-inclusive convenience of Mr. Sancho's. Either way, you're set for a perfect beach day.
A fun day in Cozumel is a highlight of any Western Caribbean cruise. To see how this itinerary fits into the bigger picture, read our Ultimate Guide to the Best Caribbean Itineraries for a Large Family here.
