Amazing, the pools and the beach are great and kids friendly, good ceviche made to my taste, very helpful and friendly staff

Beautiful pools, view to die for. Simple paradise. Food and beverages are very good, a little higher priced than some other beach clubs nearby but well worth the little extra for the pools, day beds, clean banos. Our favorite beach club when not on Playa Norte. read more

Zama - View of paradise - Mexican Near Me - Isla Mujeres, ROO

This was by far one of the most amazing places I have been to in all of Cancun. Let's start by saying you have to get here onto Isla Mujeres from Cancun by ferry which is a 15 min trip. Then rent a golf buggy and you drive another 10 min to the other side of the island to get here. The bar doesn't look like much from the street but once you step inside it's like a calendar picture paradise. There are cabana beds, tables, benches scattered throughout the beach with beautiful pools with fountains and a dock that reaches far out into a crystal blue sea. They immediately bring out menus so that you can start your adult fun. Believe me when I say their beverages are truly "adult" beverages giving you the kick start to your day (or end of it!). Their food is equally superb with an array of tacos, ceviches and other little treats that really should make your lunch. Their service was quick and efficient and just made the whole experience that much better. What was also great is that we were the only people there for a good part of the morning. By 1 pm the place was packed but we were already ready to go. Anyways after playing around in the pool and resting 30 min after eating, we took a snorkel out into the water by the docks were there were tons of tropical fish. Cowfish, barracuda, parrot fish, grunts and the sorts. There were all sorts of shells int eh water and it was just a great experience all around. I took a few photos that are easily framable =) This place really deserved a few extra stars but the limit is 5 and the text speaks to the rest of the highlights! Maybe I should write a more scathing review to ensure I have a private exclusive area the next time I am here! read more

While my husband and I were driving around the island in the golf cart that we rented, I saw the sign for Zama Beach Club. The name was familiar because when we were looking to get married this was one of the locations I had stumbled upon (we ended up getting married in the United States). We decided to stop and check it out and we are so glad that we did. As long as you eat and/or drink you can stay and use the pools, lounges etc... It was so beautiful and peaceful as compared to the larger resort we were staying at in Cancun. The restrooms are clean and there are showers and changing areas. The drinks were great and the bartender was fantastic. We will definitely be back again! read more

We originally wanted to spend the day at Captain Dulche but there was no real vibe there so we ended up at Zama. Beautiful beach and pools, clean bathrooms and area to shower and change in/out of your swimsuit, loungers in the shade along with good drinks and attentive staff made it a great place to spend the afternoon. read more

Good food, very attentive staff, nice beach (altho not terribly large.) Very few people there during our early December 2015 visit. View of the Cancun coastline is... well, it's there. I must say we didn't "get" Isla del las Mujeres - if all you want is a nice beach, it's not worth fussing with the bus/ferry/golf cart rental to go to the island. You're better off staying at your Cancun hotel. read more

Great food good service the fish tacos were amazing drinks were good would definitely go back. Would recommend to go eat and relax at this place read more

We ordered lobster tacos, they were pretty good. The waiter added 1000, pesos to the bill. It was 775 he made it 1775. He told me the credit card machine was broken, and we had to pay with cash. He was trying to cheat us. I asked to speak with the manager and he sent over a waiter who was in on the scam. He also never printed the check just wanted cash so he could give the restaurant Their 775 and he would keep the 1000 pesos ($62.00 US) for himself. I found the real manager and told her I didn't have cash and would only use my credit card. She was disappointed but I'm not sure if he will really get in trouble. Unfortunately they try to cheat their customers so beware! read more

This place is full of American tourists who want to escape their pools and lounge around the Zama pool. The price for food isn't cheap and the food is terrible. I mean the worst tacos and quesadillas you'll ever eat. The service is some of the worse I've ever experienced too. Be Warned about the waiters, they are not friendly. Who ever owns this self proclaimed yacht club (the only one in the history of the world without yachts) needs to take their staff through service school / training again. I did not tip because I did not feel the food or the service warranted it. The view is the only plus side and the spa. I give it 1 finger down the throat out of 5. Shit. read more

Not a very upbeat atmosphere and slow service. Only say the number of chairs you actually sit down in, they will charge you even if you say 2 and use 1. Completely understand that policy if you're busy, but not when you have no one there. read more

Manny was friendly and helped sanitized our gold car and brought it over to us at the front. Our server was nice and the beach view was perfect. We had a few 2x1 drinks and the green ceviche. Delicious! Good friends, good food, good drink, and a good time! read more

This place is so wonderful! It's like a fancy beach resort in Cancun or Playa deal Carmen, but smaller...and FREE admission! The servers are very attentive, and they've got CRAFT BEER! Hard to find in Mexico and I couldn't find any whatsoever in Isla Mujeres except for here and Chedraui. Here they have a good pale ale from Akumal that leans more toward the IPA end of the spectrum. The pools are great too, a lounging pool, a kiddie pool and a deeper one where you can jump off a 5' high or so ledge. Tons of fun! read more

Great place for dinner if you want to get away from downtown and enjoy the sunset. Excellent food and service!

My favorite spot in all of Isla! Beautiful location, tranquil beach.. no roaming vendors. The food is exquisite! They have three pools, one is a wading pool for toddlers. There are plenty of seatings for big parties to enjoy their delicious meals. The best part? Their service! Ask for RAMOS! He is so gracious and truly comes from his heart. He will make sure you are treated as Royalty. I spent 7 days in a row here and was staying on the North Beach part of the island. I am going home renewed and relaxed from my time at Zama. I'll be back! read more

After our good but pricey lunch there were no beach accommodations available for us. Disappointing. Liked the octopus tacos.

If you are in Isla Mujeres you cannot miss the opportunity to go to Zama!! On 2 separate trips to the island we went to Zama every single day! The food and drinks are absolutely delicious, and I can't say enough great things about the staff. They go above and beyond to ensure you are having a great time and I am always astounded by their level of service. On one occasion we had an emergency and needed cash, and the manager Pepe was so sweet and helped us locate an ATM in a pinch. On another occasion we mentioned wanting to rent a boat for the day, and our server Juan helped us connect with 2 fantastic boat captains (Maldos Tours)! If you are looking for a great time with people who treat you like family then Zama is an absolute must! read more

Staff was great, cocktails and food was great. A little overpriced for some items but definitely worth it. Ramos was the BEST waiter!! Most definitely will be back again on my next vacation. Everything was awesome and I highly recommend it :) read more

This used to be one of our favorite beach clubs for a special change of pace from the north beach. I'm sad to say we've gone there for the last time. Over the years the inconsistent policy about charging for beach chairs has been frustrating. However, this last time took the cake. I called prior to getting a cab to explain to the manager that our group of 9 would be coming over for the day and drinking and eating a lot and could he confirm beach chairs would be complimentary with food and beverage purchase. He said yes and we were on our way. Then, after our families cabbed over there, we were told the manager had changed his mind and they charged us. We argued back and forth and then just sucked it up but I wish we would have just jumped in another cab and went elsewhere. I won't be back. read more

Had a wonderful beach day ... service was fantastic . The facilities were clean . Our lunch was very good . Nice place to spend the day ..

Great golf cart stop on the island. Ceviche was wonderful. I had the fish tacos, very good and filling! Service is a tad slow but thats expected on the island read more

The best food on the island! And free admission-as long as you eat or drink! Try the conch ceviche if it's in season, to die for!!!

This place was recommended to us by the staff at the dive shop we used-Casa Del Buceo-check them out, you will be pleased! So we arrived and couldn't believe how beautiful it is. Set on an idyllic strip of beach, the turquoise water beckons, but then you turn and see the collection off pools in various depths, for sitting , or lounging and sipping a cocktail brought to you by the friendly staff.When we got there it was early afternoon, and there were a few groups of folks, but it was hardly crowded. People would come up in their golf carts, inspect, then leave, making me think "what more could you ask for, sun, water, drinks,lounging" if any of this appeals to you, along with fantastic,reasonably priced food and beverages, then Zama is a must for your day or vacation to Isla de Mujeres! read more

Beautiful location, great attentive service, however they did forget our order but the beer was cold. The food on the other hand was inedible! We ordered the tostada sampler and lion fish. Lion fish was ok but tostadas were horrible. My husband actually got sick from the old tuna on one of the tostadas. As other reviewers have said ho for location and cold beer!! read more

The food was terrible and extremely overpriced and took forever to be served (more than 30 minuets). The service was really bad- we ask for water (35 pesos on the menu) and billed for 80, after we complained the waiter said that this bottle wasn't on the menu. Thefts. DON'T GO THERE read more

No swimming here, disappointed as other reviews sounded like you could. Pools dirty and in disrepair. Drinks were average and food disappointing. We tried the Lion-fish and it was terrible, actually sent back. It was prepared in a soupy sauce that was so spicy it was disgusting. Not worth the price and trip to this side of island. read more

Been here multiple times. Staff is attentive, grounds are beautiful and it's easy to spend the entire day not caring about anything beyond the beach read more

The aguachile and the margaritas are legit here! They have two pools, and shallow waiting pools, along with beach loungers and loungers in the shade. This place is a solid go to, when looking for a place with a quiet pool. The service can be lacking, and they will try and refuse credit cards, even though they are set up to take them, so be prepared. read more

The shrimp tacos here are the best I've ever had anywhere. Also definitely get the lobster tacos and the ceviche. Delicious! And the scenery and service are amazing. read more

Incredible views, pools, staff very accommodating. Go to spot on the island:) great drink prices. 3 looks to choose from all overlooking the island read more

We stopped for drinks and a light snack. We enjoyed free use of the pool and beach/chairs. Bonus- clean bathrooms with showers.

Expensive for drinks.. be careful to not pay with cash as they will try and over inflate pricing

Beautiful location and cold beer. Food was not good, my daughters chicken sandwich was raw. The other food was ok. Worth going for a drink but go somewhere else to ea read more

My boyfriend and I both got food poisoning from the conch ceviche here which we were sure it was from here. Nice servers and good beach but I would avoid. read more

Fish tacos were outstanding and the sopa de mariscos was different, very good, but different.

On our first visit to Isla Mujeres, off the coast of Cancun, we discovered this hidden Gem by pure accident. As you know, everything is named Beach Club, perhaps to give feeling of exclusivity? Don't let it fool you, they're all open to public, restaurants or beach access with special facilities! This restaurant had clean restrooms and beautiful beach with swimming pool. We had a quick drink and decided to return for lunch. Had blackened grouper and it was moist and delicious. Meals can be served on the white sand beach or open air dinning room(casual deck area). Stay away from ferry docking area, catering mostly for tourists. Rent a golf cart and find your own little paradise! read more

Get the iron chef winning recipe beef filet.. You won't be disappointed! Very delicious. The Mango Zama drink is also delicious! Very minty. Great find on Isla Mujeres! read more

Great restaurant on the beach. The food was excellent. We ordered the verde ceviche and it was exquisite. Tacos, guacamole and drinks were good too. The view is wonderful and the ambience is great. You can also get a massage. read more

Wow outstanding food in kind of an unlikely spot. My hubby said best burger in Quintana Roo. My green ceviche was to die for and a new discovery for me! read more
