Kuza Beach & Flavors Experience-Mexican cooking Class & Beach Day

I was very disappointed with the Mexican "cooking" class. The only things we were able to do hands on were the guacamole and pressing of tortillas. No recipes were offered for take home. The staff focused their attention on select people and when we asked for recipes, we were told they were too difficult for us to have. Also to note, I stated that I had an allergy at the beginning of the class. One of the items smelled like it had the allergen in it but they repeatedly stated that it did not. This was false as I had a reaction after ingesting it. This disregard for health is concerning. The beach club itself needs quite a bit of work done on it. In the restroom, only 1 of 3 sinks worked. Music was blasting like you were in the middle of a club. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a luxe experience to give KUZÁ a pass until they make improvements. The pricing was not in line with the experience at all.

We visited Cozumel for a beach day at Kuza, taking the ferry from Playa Del Carmen. We were earlier than planned but sat on the clean, sandy beach until the class was ready to start. Yasmin (teacher?), Yolanda (assistant?), and David (photographer) were very friendly and helpful. Both alcoholic and non-alcohohic drinks were offered even before the actual class started. We each had our own equipment and made the most amazing guacamole (I didn't know you should only use Haas avocados!), hand made tortillas and then ate it all plus tacos. The women wore local dress and showed the traditional way of making corn meal. It was definitely a well done small group class. The rest of the day was spent at the beach where there were plenty of loungers available, pavilions scattered around, and towels available to rent if needed. Water activities, hair braiding, etc. was also offered at an additional cost. The entire outing was not only reasonably priced but made for a fun day that I would gladly repeat. The only disappointment was the buffet that was included. It wasn't bad but the quality of the food was nothing special, especially after the wonderful taste of the food in the cooking class. I should mention that there are specialty items were available at an additional cost from the restaurant that seemed to be more appetizing.

We spent our cruise port day at Kuza’s beach club. We did the all inclusive along with the cultural culinary experience. It was wonderful day and the experience was fun. The staff were friendly and wanted to ensure we had a great day.

Excellent way to spend a day ! Beautiful beach friendly staff excellent food and drink !! Love !!!!!

We had an amazing experience at Kuza Beach. Bernice is a fantastic historian and storyteller of the Mexican flavors. Then getting to experience the beautiful beach and turquoise waters was a cherry on top. We hope to visit again.

The resort is very nice but be careful they stole our iPhone while we was there we even gave them the location where the phone was at and they still did nothing. We tried contacting the police nothing I contacted the us embassy hoping they will send someone to the address. Just be careful with you thing you leave there. Because they try to tell you it’s not there employees but when you give them the address where the phone is they still won’t do anything. We was on a cruise so we had to leave. Very nice resort just be careful

Let me say that the staff at Kuza was very nice but that's pretty much the only positive for me. Taxi rides to and from the park were very expensive. Pretty much predatory and there is absolutely no mention of that cost when booking the excursion. Just FYI it cost $65 for 2 adults and 3 kids one way. We were told we could negotiate but once they know you have reservations, you're at their mercy. When we arrived at Kuza, we were taken back to the beach and told that our Mexican flavors class was at 9:15am and then another staff member told us 9:30. We arrived around 9:20 and the table was completely booked so we had to wait an hour for the next class. We went to get our drinks from the open bar and were told our package only included drinks during the class. I had to speak with 3 different people before we finally were able to get our drinks. We went back to the flavors class and made sure to be there very early. It was fun, the kids really enjoyed it. After the class, we walked to the family beach to get our gear to go snorkeling. We had a 30 minute time limit for that which was not nearly enough time but the kids did enjoy the little time we had. Finally, the buffet was mediocre. Not really much else to say about that. This experience left me wishing I had purchased a different excursion or just stayed in the port. We could have eaten lunch for much less money but, you live and you learn.

Our Carnival cruise excursion was exceptional. Henry, our tour guide, provided an incredibly enjoyable experience, and Sergio, our driver, ensured our safe transportation. We eagerly anticipate a return visit and highly recommend this excursion to all.

Alfredo was a fantastic tour guide. We really enjoyed getting to know the local landscape and felt well taken care of the entire time!

Wow. Booked thru Vacations To Go options. Didn't know what to expect. It was fabulous, beginning to End. Our guide, Jesus took great care of all of us. He let us know every detail for our 5 hour excursion. Last stop was 1.5 hrs at the beach. Loungers were plenty in this beautiful. Lots of tequila samples there. It was fun, top down on tour bus for first leg, and closed to shield us from the sun. Windows were wide open. Jesus and his driver Alfredo were the best. You'll be in for a treat. Only $50 each.
