newyorker123 Posted August 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hi! I'm trying to decide between these two places. I've never been to Cozumel before. Is the taxi to one place cheaper than the other? Is the beach better in one place? Food? Drinks? Drink prices? I'm looking for any info that you're willing to provide. Thank you.

negn Posted August 16, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Never been to Carlos and Charlies but we do go to Paradise each time we are in Cozumel. DH is not particularly a beach fan so he loves the pool. Place is very clean with large,clean bathrooms Only $3 pp to get in though they expect you to buy food and drink (never been harassed to do so though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare crewsweeper Posted August 16, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Both have websites showing photos, menus and amenities. Both are in the same taxi zone. My read on CnC is it's more for serious party hearty types where as PB with its pool and inflatables does cater to families and beach lounger types.

The beaches are right next to each other. Despite that Paradise has more beach area and in addition Paradise Beach has a large pool. The taxi fare should be about the same.

Rare crewsweeper Posted August 17, 2016 #10 Share Posted August 17, 2016 All I can add, is old news. But at one time pre-pool, the bartender at PB made "mean" margartitas! Not usually the way I start the day, but BIL and I both had 2:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newyorker123 Posted August 18, 2016 Author #13 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Got it. I thought there was something I was missing. Just makes it more confusing! Now I'm thinking Mr. Sancho! Appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are doing Mr. Sancho in October. I have two little kids so as much as Carlos and Charlies looks like fun it is no place for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been there twice before, and I think I remember it being about a 15 min drive to Paradise Beach, but it's been awhile lol. I was hoping someone might've just been there more recently.
