A Palace Cozumel destination wedding puts you on one of the most distinctive shores in all of Mexico — Cozumel Island, where the Caribbean runs in vivid shades of turquoise and the reefs just offshore are among the most celebrated dive sites in the world. The resort sits directly on the water’s edge, 15 minutes from the international airport and 10 minutes from the San Miguel ferry terminal, making arrivals straightforward for guests flying in from anywhere.
Five dedicated event spaces — four open-air terraces and one air-conditioned ballroom — give you genuine flexibility whether you’re planning an intimate elopement on the Sky Terrace for 30 or a full celebration across the North Terrace for up to 80 guests. Every space frames the Caribbean and the resort’s lush grounds, and the Mirador Ballroom provides a fully weatherproof option with the same all-inclusive service wrapped around it.
With 168 all-ocean-view suites, a world-class spa, an on-site dive center, and a dining program that moves between Italian, Mexican, Asian, and an oceanside grill, Cozumel Palace gives your guests a full island vacation — not just a resort stay. 10kWedding knows this property and the Palace Resorts wedding program well, and we’ll make sure your group gets the most from every detail.
