We chose to take the Playa Mia Beach Break excursion through Royal Caribbean while in Cozumel.  We paid $29.00 per person and that included the facilities at the beach and our drinks!  It was a $15 (per group) cab ride to and from the beach area.  There was also an option that included the buffet, but we had read that the food wasn't very good from the buffet, so we just took the drink option.  After talking to people there, we made the right decision!  We ordered some chips and guacamole and chicken nachos from our server.  The food was great and it was just enough for the three of us on the excursion.

There was a shopping area on the way in, as well as lockers, showers, and a nice bathroom facility.  As you walked in towards the beach, there was a cooking class area (most likely where the Mexican Cuisine Workshop & Tasting with Royal Caribbean and many other cruise lines) and a large seating area for the buffet.  Closer to the beach, there was a pool with a shallow area for the little kids and hammocks in the shade.  The beach was fairly wide - large enough for the 4 rows of chairs, but wide enough to have a beach volleyball game between the chairs and the ocean.  There were palm trees throughout, so between those and the beach umbrella that was included, there was enough sun and shade to appease us!

In the water, there was an ocean trampoline and rock climbing wall.  The water itself was quite rocky on the way in and it was sandbagged to reduce erosion.  It was very calm, but not recommended for little kids because of the rocks in the water.  it was more of an area to swim, snorkel, stand and talk, or lay on your floaty!  There was also a beach volleyball court and the facility did some games in the afternoon.

For sale, there were jet ski rides ($35 for 15 minutes), hair braiding and henna tattoos.  Our friend got 2 henna tattoos for $28.

The drinks were great.  They were in propbably 8 oz cups, but they had quite a bit to offer - dos equis (the only beer), margaritas, darquiris, pina coladas, sex on the beach. Certainly enough options to suit you.
