i'm planning a big birthday bash next summer (my very own pirate looks at 40) and i cant decide where i want to spend the big event.

i have it narrowed down to these 3. any opinions? i have been to cancun and loved it, but i am leaning toward a new destination this year.

any thoughts on cozumel or negril? i have to chose a spot with a margaritaville as that will be my hq on the big day

Cozumel, definitely.

Diving or snorkeling in the morning, lunch, siesta, beach, happy hour, dinner, drinks by the pool, sleep, repeat.

Nightlife in Cozumel was pretty good last time I was there.

Although, there was that night at Carlos and Charlies....

If you're planning on spending anytime in cozumel itself I believe it going to be a min $20 one way by Cab from the Iberostar to downtown Coz. It may even be more now.

I personally wouldn't do an all inclusive, but if your going to drink alot it might be a good ideal. Myself I would prefer to go into town everynight and enjoy the many great dining establishments that Coz has to offer at reasonable prices.

Cozumel is Margaritaville.

I didn't know there was a Margaritaville there. When did that happen?
OH, I found March 2007.

CRS!!!!

all-inclusive is by far the best option, imo

i did see that it was a cab ride into town.....minor detail
