    Great beach area. Lots of shady spots. We were there on a day with no cruise ships in town

    Making a bit of a bar crawl on the East side of the island finally stopped in to check out Punta Mureno. We'll be back. Had their Gauc n Chips and an order of chicken quesadillas. Ample portions were enough for the three of us. Beer nice and cold. Friendly staff throughout. Quite a number of vendors stop by the table but are very nice about No Gracias and moving on. Several shops with decent prices. Clean restrooms. Bar looks fun with some swing chairs but we didn't do that activity. Great stop on the east side.

    If you are in cozumel, and have a way to get to the more remote part of the island, this is a great place to go. The restaurant is on the beach and has postcard worthy views to enjoy while you eat mexican food and enjoy ice cold cervesa. We had beer, of course, guacamole, salsa, and an order of fajitas. Everything was great. The prices are a bit above average, but in line with the location and beach/island experience. The property is sprawling and after lunch you can take a siesta on one of the many hammocks, tan on the beach, take a swim in the ocean or in the pool. There are also many souvenier shops. We thoroughly enjoyed this establishment. Easy 5 stars in my book.

    If you have time to go off the main portion of Cozumel, this is a bit of a hidden gem. Although prices are a little higher than other places, you won't regret the experience! Clean beach and great atmosphere, its a great place for family with tons to do! Enjoy the pool or the beach or a relaxing beach hair or hammock! Staff was very attentive and not pushy like other establishments. Kids enjoyed seeing a parrot and iguana. Overall and easy 5 star for me!

    I had no reception to check into this beautiful beach side restaurant. This place is gorgeous. Our taxi driver brought us here after zip-lining. The restaurant was just an oasis. It's completely secluded. There's nothing in either direction. The prices are definitely high for what you get. I do have to say that the guacamole was delicious and the shrimp and beef tacos were amazing. The shrimp tasted fresh. The black beans and rice were also pretty damn good. I have to say that the price was just fine because of the million dollar view. I felt Morgan Freeman was going to pop out of somewhere with Tim Robbins.

    Love this place, been coming for years....little known gem!!

Almost…read more The restaurant is tucked away from the main tourist strip, and walking in feels like discovering a hidden garden. At night, it really comes alive. Lanterns hang from the trees casting a warm amber glow, everything feels soft and intimate, and a live band playing low-key jazz ties it all together. It's cozy, a little romantic, and honestly one of the better dining atmospheres on the island. Hard to say how it translates during the day, but at night, it works. The Food The food holds its own, even if the setting gets most of the attention. By Cozumel standards, it's some of the better food we had on the island. The menu leans creative but still approachable. We tried a bit of everything. The Mexican dumplings were fine. Not bad, not memorable. The trio of guacamoles was a hit, especially the one with fruit and bacon, which sounds questionable but works really well. The queso was exactly what you expect. Good, comforting, not trying to reinvent anything. The standout surprise was the tortillas. Freshly made and easily one of the best parts of the meal. They elevated everything they touched. The meat tacos were also very solid, well-seasoned and satisfying. Dessert was the house specialty, a cornbread-based dish with ice cream and toppings. Don't remember the name, but I remember finishing it, which says enough. Service Service was good across the board. Friendly, efficient, nothing over the top but nothing missing either. Overall Kondesa is worth visiting for the atmosphere alone, but the food makes sure it's not just a pretty place. Come for dinner, take your time, and enjoy the setting. It's one of those meals where the environment does half the work and the food handles the rest.

Beautiful garden scenery as you walk up to the entrance of the restaurant which we were told its an actual home.

I'll give a more detailed portion of that below. I had the steak fajitas and we had the lime chicken soup and the Mexican plate. The Mexican plate had a torta, chili relleno, tamale, quesadilla, green chicken enchilada, and a small portion of fajitas. Everything was delicious and well cooked. The gardens are gorgeous and I could easily see a wedding being held there. Wheelchair accessibility: you can tell hat they've put thought and effort into making this restaurant wheelchair accessible. There was an accessible entrance, and each of the restaurant entrances and had small ramps that were put in place, a little steep but nothing un- navigable. The aisles were open and roomy, and there were paved paths through the garden also accessible by wheelchair. The one hiccup is that the bathrooms have two small steps to get into them with no handrail.
