This photo was taken by me at SCC about 10 years ago and has been the home screen on my iPhone since then.

I usee a similar photo taken from the dock at Blue Angel as the background wallpaper for one of my computers. I also often have this site Playa Hotel Presidente Cozumel en vivo, Cozumel - Webcams de México up full screen on one of my monitors for hours.

Heavy sigh...

This is the top image on my Facebook page. It has been for at least 8 years.
We always used to get room #73. The second floor on the left of the image.

This year we were going to do one week at SCC and one week at Blue Angel (like we did last year). Instead, we are doing two weeks at Blue Angel. I really like both places in different ways. They are both (were for SCC) great dive resorts, in different ways, it was totally different vacations, just 1/2 mile from each other.

FWIW, neither Blue Angel nor Villa Aldora are AIs.

If you ask, BA will give you an AI quote/price. I did it once, and I regretted it because I felt obligated to eat all my meals there instead of going into town to experience all the great places to eat.

I did not know that it was an option, but I would not be interested. As you say, there are tons of great options in town that I would not want to miss.

The same would hold true for the Villa Aldora. Even though they have refrigerators and dining stuff in every room, the short walk or bicycle into town opens up a lot of the joys that AI victims miss. Many times we have considered some sort of AI service--but we don't want our guests to miss the very best of Cozumel that the town offers.

This is really stretching the AI concept but you can always hire cooks to come to your hotel/BnB. I suspect some hotels may frown or limit access. They will come to your place and fix fantastic homemade meals. Tell her what kind of meals you like and how often, she does the grocery shopping, shows up, cooks then cleans up - super easy. The options are really unlimited. One meal or three meals a day, everyday or once a week, your choice. Very affordable as well.

It is wonderful how memories tend to embellish with time. I had a friend who told a great story once then said. "I've told that story so many times I no longer know if it is true or not."

I think the guy is suffering from nostalgia. I've been going for 20 years and there is more nightlife now than in 2005. The kind of places he likes are commercial tourist traps and the places I avoid. I never have trouble finding a place to go when I want to drink. The cruisers have always dried up after 5pm. Maybe what happened is the divers staying on island wised up to the tourist traps and their price gouging and found better cheaper bars off Melgar.

Like 'Ohana, maybe?

Reminds me of one of Lee Trevino’s best lines: “The older I get, the better I used to be.” [Lee is one of the greatest golfers of all time who played on the PGA tour in the 60’s and 70’s.]
