Our trip planning began with the wonderful Diamond Concierge, Paola Mavel Bautista Nuñez and continued when we arrived and during our stay. She had all of our dinner and spa treatments schedule and it made our trip very relaxing. Eder, the pool concierge had a prime spot for us at the pool or beach each day. He confirmed our dinner reservations; all while training David, the new pool concierge for Cozumel Palace. As I have said before the addition of pool concierges has been wonderful and very member friendly. I LOVE IT! Spa services were top notch and here are ladies who went above and beyond: Margarita (massage & facial), Isidra Basto (facial) and Ruth (Refreshing facial and massage). All these ladies were very focused on making my treatments relaxing while being professional and very pleasant. Also, Adela led a wonderful stretch class along with energizing activities by and in the pool! Kudos to the following servers and restaurants: Cafe Del Mar: Breakfast waiter - Dionicio was funny and energetic plus by the end of the week he had memorized our drink order. Momo Teppanyaki Table: Carlos provided a great wine recommendation and Ivan was a fantastic and entertaining chef. Shabu Shabu @ Momo: We loved this new experience. I highly recommend this dining experience; great food. Miguel, our waiter was helpful and very friendly. Momo restaurant: Can you see the theme? Momos is great. Pablo and Ivan were fantastic waiters plus Ruben, the chef came to our table to discuss what we wanted for dinner. He didn't disappoint. All the food he prepared was amazing! It was great to chat with him about our dinner options. Bocceli: The lasagna is the BEST! Love this size of this resort (no need for a golf cart) and great to take the ferry to Cozumel and shopping in the village. The view is OUTSTANDING and the beach was great this trip. Read less

Pastor was our very attentative waiter. Jose,of Mayan decent, was the chef. He prepared 10 excellent courses. Here are a few. You have to walk outside to the side of the resort to enter the restaurant. It was raining when we went but so worth a little rain! If you stay at Playacar Palace you must eat at Lahna!
