Rocamar

The Rocamar is perched right over the sea and each balcony is large and has privacy walls. The ocean sound is amazing - almost too much sometimes, but you can shut the door. A/C does not seem to spread evenly from door location, but was comfortable. Wi-Fi was only available downstairs in "outdoor lobby", but that was being improved. Great location, […] easy to get to restaurant row, north beach, etc. My wife and I enjoyed our stay alot at Rocamar and on Isla. Read more

This hotel is clean, updated, in a good location right on the Carribean, great views, quiet; has comfortable new beds and is a great bargain, close to all in Isla Mujeres. The one single issue is the lack of water pressure in the showers. We rented 2 rooms; one with a king size bed for my wife and me; one with two doubles for our older teenage boys. […] We loved it.

Balcony view was excellent. Heck, view from bed was excellent. Sunrises were gorgeous. Sound of Carribean was overwhelming. I loved it. Drawbacks Shower was a rainshower, not very strong. no hand towels. Bring your own conditioner, beach towels

We had an amazing stay at the hotel. The location is very convenient. The view from the room is fantastic. It's quiet, all you can hear is waves. The room was very clean and spacious. The bathroom is also spacious and clean. The decor is basic but the view from the balcony makes up for it. Bed was very, very comfortable. Staff is nice. The room was […] cleaned daily. There is wi-fi downstairs where you can watch TV and make a coffee. We managed to catch the wi-fi signal in the room sometime. We liked the vicinity of the church - there was always something going on there. We watched basketball matches a few times next to the church - that was a nice entertainment. There are shops near by and a supermarket. The nicest beach of the Island is less than 10 minutes walk. Would definitely come back again and would recommend it to a friend. Read more

Excellent location with elegantly simple and clean rooms. Paying a little extra for AC is definitely worth it

Gr8 view of the Atlantic ocean. Room right next to the ocean...could hear the ocean whole night. Looked like new construction. No elevators though...its only 3 levels. No TV or phone either but were not missed at all. Nice clean and comfortable room. Very relaxing to the sounds of the ocean. Walking distance (3 mini blocks) from the ferry dock. Also […] close to local shopping and eateries. No need to rent a car. Rental of a golf cart for 2-3 hours is enough to drive around and get a hang of local flavors. Very much recommended. Read more

absolutely, 200% recommend this hotel. the price is unbeatable!! the room is stunning!! very modern, clean, minimalist, with a wall of glass that opens to a private balcony with a hammock overlooking the ocean, what more could you ask for!? oh yea, a glass shower so you can watch the sunrise/set while you shower! 2 blocks from the main ferry port and […] only 1 block from the main strip of the street, the location is unbeatable. the hotel also has a quiet surrounding neighborhood (all i could hear was the sound of the ocean). theres a small pool and nice patio, plus free wifi (only in the common area, minor downfall). the staff is very helpful. the room was always clean. and the AC is freeeeeeezing cold! quite possibly the best value on the entire island. will go back again for sure.

Location was excellent, room was very clean and modern. Staff was less than helpful in navigating local help/orientation. Wireless only works in the common area. The pool was pretty dirty with big hair clumps floating around so I stayed away. Can't beat the view.

Only one front desk person ever working- Pool area including deck chairs were extremely dirty. This hotel has so much potential!

Good time. Felt safe there.

Roca Mar was wonderful for us. It sits off by itself in one corner of downtown, so you have your own private guest house, and it's a short walk anywhere downtown. The swimming beach is five or six blocks away, but we like to walk, and you can walk along the beachfront or through town; either way interesting. The oceanfront rooms are right on the waterfront, […] so you can see and hear the waves crashing right outside the room (and there's a small patio on the ocean side). There's even a glass bathroom so you can take a shower while watching surf. The hotel was recently renovated, so is clean. Everything works. There are a lot of outlets. There is wifi in the lobby area, but not in the room. There is no other hotel on Isla that is anything like this -- modern and clean, but isolated on the Atlantic side on the surf. Read more

I was very dissapointed with this hotel, there was no hot water!!!!! It is not located by a beach that you can swim in...... It ocean views are beautiful but have very large rock so they will not let you swim. The sand beach is less than a mile away but they will not let you use the lounge chairs. Also they didn't have tv's in the rooms(said they were […] remolding) Read more

The cheapest room Expedia offers does NOT come with A/C and they will ask you to pay a significant amount extra when you get there to upgrade rooms. Trust me, the hot little rooms are unlivable in the humid summer without A/C. The staff was not very friendly and asked us to move rooms 3 times during our 4 night stay to accomodate other guests which […] was ridiculous. Unfortunate time with the A/C issue and rude staff but the hotel was otherwise in a great location right on the waves. A public sidewalk runs along the shore between the balconies and the water so you do not have much privacy when you are lounging on your balcony. We also had an unfortunate experience with a man on the sidewalk who stared up at us while doing inappropriate things. Read more

I really enjoyed this hotel as the room had a balcony with a hammock where I could lay and watch the ocean. That was the best thing about the hotel. The staff was very friendly. My only complaint was the swimming pool. It had green algae growing on the sides. The staff told me they cleaned the pool and put chemicals in it but it didn't appear to be […] true. I was hesitant to swim in the pool as I didn't know how sanitary it was. Read more

Hotel is a bit old , expensive for the standing. Walls are like paper you can ear everything around . We had the suite with the jacuzzi it took us 2h to fill half of the jacuzzi ...

I stayed at the Rocomar in Isla Mujeres two nights in Dec 2012. The hotel is nothing special as far as layout, design, or service. But what makes this a very interesting stay are the 'upper rooms' that are right on the rough and noisy and windy Atlantic Ocean. From your room, as you look through the huge window/balcony opening, you will feel as if you […] and your bed are a part of the sea itself. At day the scene is lovely; at night you will either love it or want to close the balcony door, shut the curtains, and put in earplugs. I enjoyed the experience of 'living in the sea' the first night, but the second night I did need a respite from the incessant waves crashing at the shore and the wind. But I think everyone should experience this at least once. So ask for the second or third floor rooms that overlook the sea. It will be something to remember. Read more

We stayed at the Rocamar in January 2012 as well; it is exceptionally clean, we love the view of the ocean from our balcony, the beds are comfortable, the pool is clean....it is all that we need!

Great value for money - it doesn't have all the mod cons but most important of all it has a superb pool area and only a few minutes from North beach.

Hotel Review: Wonderful breeze and sound of ocean waves on a rocky shore. I couldn't help but doze off when lying on the balcony's hammock. AC & hot water worked fine & were included in the per night price for room 17 (middle floor in middle of the building). The lower two floors (below ours... there is one above middle floor) may have privacy issues […] as there is an 8' wide public walkway between the shore & the hotel (not used by many). The lowest floor is actually eye level with the walkway, separated by a balcony wall. The hotel appears to undergo seasonal exterior renos regularly in the fall. While we were there they were rebuilding seaside courtyard walls. It was a little noisy after 9 Am, but not too bad. Room furnishings are a nice king sized mattress on a frame, balcony hammock, 2 plastic deck chairs, wall mount desk, built in clothes closet with drawers & free safe with lock. No TV, poor WiFi. The pool has a wonderful ocean view, but is pretty basic and not quite as serene as depicted in some pics due to paint weathering and the walkway. We did not note the presence of the large telecom antenna some have said is on the roof. It may have been moved.... I didn't take note of it being an issue until after we'd left & it is in none of our pics. There are fresh drinking water dispensers, however 2 out of 3 days the 18 L bottles were empty. Staff were at the desk wnen the bell was rung, but otherwise seemed occuppied in the office. The cleaning staff did a good job. Read more

Discovered this architecturally 'funky' hotel hanging right over the crashing Caribbean while out walking the malecon on an earlier trip to Isla Mujeres. Vowed to myself I would stay here next time. So, two years later, I spent ten nights at the Roca Mar in mid-to late November 2010. Wow, what a view! Unobstructed windward vista of turquoise and aquamarine […] Caribbean with surf relentlessly crashing onto rocks just beyond your balcony. View the island from one end to the other in a glance. Watch the frigate birds and brown pelicans soar and dive for fish. See cruise ships from Cozumel slowly pass at night far off-shore; A constant warm gentle breeze from open sea with soothing sound of breaking waves. Modern comfortable room on third floor in excellent condition. Queen bed comfy as was the hammock you can string out on the balcony. No television or telepho:00ne. Room kept spot-lessly clean with bed made daily and fresh linen /towels supplied each day by friendly and dedicated cleaning staff. Tiled bathroom with shower only super clean and sundry items provided. Water pressure in shower and sink was extremely weak and flow a trickle. It took five minutes for hot water to arrive. Water 'hard.' Nightwatchman / security guard on premises all night. During my visit they installed a new layer of concrete on the roof! So there was construction noise and dust from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. They were also chipping-away loose cement to patch and re-paint. Read more

Rent och fint hotell, nära till centrum och 10 min gång till playa norte beach som är riktigt fin! Härlig havsutsikt från rummet/balkongen, kan dock blåsa ganska mycket på balkongen. Litet minus är att det inte är wifi på rummen utan bara i lobbyn

Fantastisk utsikt från balkongen och poolen. Bra läge, kort gåavstånd både till färjan, stranden, restauranger och butiker. Ett måste är middag på Olivia!

einfach, schlicht und unkompliziert; sicherlich nicht für alle Touristen geeignet (kein Frühstück oder sonstige Verpflegung, einfachste Möbel, sanitäre Anlagen am Zimmer - wenig Luxus und keine Schnörksel, nur eine saubere, einfache Unterkunft, direkt am Strand. Alle Zimmer mit Meerblick, jedoch nicht geeignet zum Baden (Brandung!). Der Pool ist sehr […] klein und wird kaum benutzt. Öffentlicher Strand ist ca. 10-20 Gehminuten, je nach Strandabschnitt entfernt. Für viele westliche Touristen und vor allem Pauschaltouristen ist diese Unterkunft sicherlich zu einfach und wahrscheinlich enttäuschend (Hotelstandard, Verpflegung und zu kleiner Pool). Für die anderen bleibt ein äußerst faires Angebot mit hervorragendem Meerblick, abseits der großen ALL Inklusive Clubs und dem großen Treiben auf Cancun, obwohl sich die Insel in den letzten 13 Jahren bereits gehörig verändert hat (Aufenthalte 1997, 2001 und nun 2010).

L'hotel è un pò spoglio (pare sia chiuso!), ma è ordinato e pulito. La camera prenotata su expedia al costo più basso non è dotata di aria condizionata.

Alla […] fine del pontile, basta procedere dritti per arrivarci. L'hotel si trova in fondo alla strada a circa 200 mt. e si affaccia sull'altra sponda dell'isola. Read more
