When I arrive the front desk tall me there have no reservation under my name and they couldn’t give me any room because there were no vacancy. I did make the reservation on line 4 weeks prior and pay for it, but as I can see they have terrible organization, no booking or software control other than a simple paper... More

I stayed at the Barracuda over Thanksgiving week 2011. Note that this is not a "resort" or luxury hotel by any means. The rooms are modest, and there aren't any resort-type services or activities. It is a great hotel if you are on the island to dive and primarily use a hotel for sleeping. If you plan to hang out... More

My husband is a diver and I'm a snorkler, so we thought we'd try the Hotel Barracuda on this trip to Cozumel. My husband had stayed there many years ago on a dive trip, and didn't have very nice things to say about it, but that had been over 20 years ago. I was sure it had been updated since... More

We have stayed at this hotel for going on 11 years. It is great for scuba divers. Dive Paradise picks up up at their pier. Comfortable rooms. No frills. Recently remodeled. Nothing for kids, homeymooners, ect... But perfect for what it is. Also walking distance from town More

I have stayed at The 'Cuda many times with my buddies on long weekend dive trips. If you want bang for the buck while diving and having a great time, then this is the place for you. The 'Cuda is not plush, its not fancy, its not high-profile. If you want all that spa-oriented stuff, The 'Cuda is not for... More

I have been at the Hotel Barracuda since May 1st in Room 103. Absolutely, no sign of bed bugs during my stay. The room was very clean and is kept that way by a very efficient housekeeping staff. The hotel is located close to town. I have truly enjoyed the peace and quiet along with the ability to be able... More

This WAS my favorite place to stay in Cozumel. It's cheap, friendly, has a great location only a 3 minute walk from town, and a beautiful beachside pool/ restaurant. Albeit, it's a 2 of 5 star hotel, with the rooms sparse and basic. But it worked for the money. HOWEVER.......... We've been going here for years. However, I'm scared to... More

We have stayed at Hotel Barracuda on several occasions and have found it to be reasonably priced, close to restaurants and downtown area and generally pleasant. That was before the arrival of the "No Name Bar" which is immediately behind the Hotel Barracuda. The "NNB" is run by a former cruise worker. The bar/restaurant caters to cruise workers who are...

My wife and I stayed at the Barracuda and after reading some not so positive reviews I can say it wasn't that bad but if you like luxuary don't even think about staying there. The room was average size, no remote for the TV, no shampoo, hairdryer, tissues and no hand towels or wash cloths just bath towels. Maid service... More
