As a thrify traveller with simple needs, the Fontan was an amazing discovery. Generally in life, you get what you pay for: yet the Fontan far exceeded what we expected for our budget. The Good: - Cheap: booked last minute on tickepilot for just over $70 CDN a night (incl. taxes) - Beautiful, gorgeous patio view of the ocean and... more

The Good...Hotel Fontan is a small, laid-back hotel with a fantastic, unobscured view of the gorgous turquoise blue water. No crews ships, jet skis or other tourist trapping can be seen from your hotel room. The small number of hotel staff are polite and work hard to meet your needs. Unlike some other reports, I found the hot water and... more

First impressions were good here. The room was clean the price was right. I didn't find the staff very friendly, the front desk insisted on keeping my paperwork that showed the hotel reservation that I had booked online. I was okay with that but they also insisted on keeping the paperwork to my next hotel that was on the backside... more

Rock bottom price for a beachfront hotel (poolside no less !) just a beautiful setting, nice pool , overlooking the blueness of the sea. Rooms are really spacious. Plenty of room for 4 .... more

Very nice smaller hotel, staff was very good to us and we tipped them about a $1 a day. Breakfast was good,coffee was very good, service is a bit slow but hey were on vacation and not in a hurry either, food service was over by 2pm and never knew they had a bar. Yes they could do more with... more

We spent 5 wonderful days in Cozumel early this month and had a fabulous time at Hotel Fontan. This hotel is not too far from the airport and downtown. We arrived at the hotel before noon (which is before the official check-in time) and Julio was gracious enough to offer us an available room next to the front desk and... more

My wife and I live in Playa del Carmen a little more than half hour of Cozumel where Fontan is located. We recently reserved a room for 2 nights at cozumel on-line through a third party website. It was unacceptable. We left after the first night. We have traveled and stayed in hotels and resorts over a wide area of... more

I agree with all the positive comments previously posted but felt obligated to add a bit of negativity I experienced. We came in for only one night on a whilrwind trip that involved driving most of Q. Roo and Yacatan. We loved the hotel, especially for the $51 price through Best Day. We decided to stay an extra day and... more
