Annual Mexico Trip

El Faro is a beautiful well maintained property. I would recommend to anyone! This was our 3rd year staying here. Seemed to be quite a lot of children this year - sometimes not convenient at the pool area. Also, we had a lack of bath towels & absolutely no bath hand towels. We knew enough to bring our own washcloths. Otherwise we were quite happy with our experience.

Wonderful condo!

This property was perfect for our group of three couples with three bedrooms, three full bathrooms and large living area. It was close to Fifth Avenue, restaurants, bars and convenience stores. The view from the large balcony was amazing! El Faro is a beautiful complex with very courteous staff. Loved it!

Beautiful apartment with stunning view

I cannot say enough good things about this apartment in El Faro. The panoramic, two-story view of the pool and ocean is amazing. The apartment is huge, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, three sitting areas, two dining areas (including balcony), and a nice kitchen. The apartment is spotlessly clean, and all appliances worked perfectly. The swimming pool is amazing and open for morning and evening swims. The location is close to all kinds of shopping, restaurants, and the ADO bus station. And the ocean is right there, so accessible, with a well-maintained beach. The El Faro staff are lovely. Our stay here in Playa del Carmen was wonderful.

Loved this condo!

This condo was a perfect fit for our girls trip! It was spacious and clean. The front desk staff was so kind and helpful. The management team was so responsive and easy to work with. We had a couple issues come up during our stay and I got responses right away each time! The location of the condo is perfect as well- I definitely hope to be back!!

Absolutely Beautiful!!!

This was property was so beautiful. The host was fantastic and the place was very large. The beds were very comfortable and we are not used to having extra toilet paper, trash bags, etc in the places we rent so this was fantastic. Restaurants, stores and night clubs were all within walking distance. The staff was always very friendly and the grounds were beautiful. The view was amazing! We would definitely stay here again. Thanks so much for your hospitality. Kelly Indiana 12-19-22

Perfect spot for a getaway

We cannot say enough about this property! It was a perfect fit for our family of four. The condo exceeded our expectations in every way - from the condo itself and the pool/beach, to its proximity to multiple restaurants, shops and the ferry to Cozumel. We spent a lot of time at Inti, Zenzi and Parrillo restaurants. We rented a car with ease and drove to Tulum/Xel-ha. We also spent a day driving around Cozumel. Our favorite day was spent at Xplor. The beach has tons of activities, including parasailing, a banana boat, jet skis, snorkeling, fishing… Our kids loved everything about this place as well, which is high praise. Muchas gracias for sharing your beautiful home with us. We hope to return some day soon.

Ideal location

Very clean. Cold AC. Hot water. Fresh bottled water. Ideal location for in town restaurants and night life… quiet despite the load club science nearby. Lots of space. Security guards on site all hours. Access control. Felt safe entire time. Will stay here again. Highly recommend if you want to walk around the town to shop or go to restaurants of all types - high end to local… FYI - smell from seaweed on beach is present in the town regardless of property. This place cleans it up daily.

El Faro Coral 303

This is a beautiful unit with stunning views of the pool and ocean. Bed was comfortable pillows were horrible. Air conditioning worked great. There were a few maintenance issues that we photoed and sent to property managers, who were very responsive. We were supposed to have maid service every other day, did the very minimum. Didn’t empty garage or change towels, made some beds and not others. Overall a great property with lots of room and excellent property management.

Cannot recommend this place more!

Stayed for week with family of 6. Wish I could give 6 stars. Condos were very clean and well guarded 24 hours, always felt safe. Pool was fantastic, and they did a good job making sure everyone would get a chair by pool if they wanted. Location could not have been better. 2 min walk to 5th Ave, but far enough off that sound was never an issue. Could barely hear clubs at night if you were sitting on your patio, but inside was fine. Under 5 mins and you were on 5th Ave with shopping, restaurants, 10 min walk to Cozumel ferry, and 5-7 min walk to either Walmart or Mercado for shopping. Check was smooth and easy, and placed had a cleaning crew every other day. Management was super fast in responding to issues, and we are absolutely looking at coming here again. One of the best vacations we have ever had.

Great view, convenient location

Walkable to everything! Property is just as listed. Close to hundreds of shops and restaurants, and a short walk to the ferry to Cozumel. Music from the beach clubs can go late into the night, but you can't hear it from inside the condo unless you have windows open. Awesome pool with nice area for kids off to the side. Beach is very small, and currently covered in seaweed in the mornings, but they work so hard to clean it each day between 7-10am. Very clean property with very few maintenance issues. The air conditioning was a little lacking in the master bedroom, but I'm sure it's a quick fix. Definitely would come back!!!

Absolutely beautiful condo

Place is massive with large view of the ocean and the rest of El Faro properties. Would recommend to any of my family and friends. Only oddity is we never knew there was a housekeeping service once a week and we weren’t informed of when that was. They did a very rushed “clean” and may have been better if they didn’t stop by at all (they put wet used towels on our dry clean clothes, didn’t sweep, used a dirty rag on clean counters and took the recycling but not the garbage). No fault to this beautiful condo, but that was our only minor complaint!

Just ok

Hate to focus on the negative while in such a beautiful place as playa but had a couple issues we hoped would’ve been resolved quickly that weren’t. The people at the front desk weren’t the most hospitable either. We had a hard time getting our A/C and fans to work - Our toilet broke while there- the dryer didn’t work - we asked for washcloths several times that were supposed to be provided that weren’t - took forever to give them to us. I will definitely be back to Playa but won’t stay in this unit. Overall it was just “ ok “ since we weren’t indoors for the majority of the day .
