Nice condo and wonderful accessories. We came to Playa for a family wedding and this condominium structure was able to accommodate us in (5) separate units. Awesome location to all activities and great restaurants.

This condo was amazing. It’s walking distance to anything you could want, ocean front, and pretty sure the only condo with a oceanfront pool! 24/7 security. It’s like staying in a resort but with less people. Best COVID vacation ever!

I loved waking up and sitting outside the balcony. Looking beyond the Caribbean while drinking a cup of tea and chatting with friends on what to do today. It had a relaxing vibe and felt like our own home. One week is not enough.

Wonderful stay.

Fantastic property. Security 24/7. Paco at front desk was a true gentleman and extremely helpful. Cabs available right up the street. Walked to Walmart a few times. Les Amies cafe right next door. Tony made Fantastic breakfast with homemade breads. Los Tabernachos, Quebec owners, incredible food and bloody ceasers. Rooftop Club across 5th Avenue was loud at night but never bothered us. Very clean safe condo Always felt safe even on our daily walks thru Playa del Carmen would go back anytime. Zenzi beach bar and restaurant by the front entrance was always great

Nice condo

We love the pool, location, and rooftop was nice. Next time though we will select a different condo in same residence. I say that only because it’s so extremely loud every night from 9pm till 3am due to clubs. If noise wouldn’t bother you than I say stay here.

Perfect location

Stayed for a week in October. We loved the pool and the views. The condo was very clean and it was really easy to communicate with condo manager. It had everything we needed to cook our own meals. We had some issues with the cleaning service, they came twice early in the week and then they didn’t return. We didn’t use rooftop as much as I thought we would, stairs were a bit scary for small children, but it was really nice up there. Overall it was a really great stay, the location is the best.

Condo and amenities were fantastic. Would love to go again, just not in June. Rain season - rained every day but the last, and only on the last day did we even see the sun. Seaweed also a big issue. Pick travel time better than we did!

Amazing space fo an extended stay!

I always like El Faro, due to location. The roof top was nice for the afternoon sun, after it went below the building and shaded the pool. Space was cozy for a group of 4, any more it would have been overcrowded. The beds were firm, but not Mexico hard beds. The bedrooms were modest and small in size. Both beds were full size and honestly a bit small for two adults of regular proportion (6’ and slim in size). Elevators are slow- so we took the stairs, if people have issue with 4 flights of stairs, I would caution entering this space, as you have to walk a few flights often. Housekeeping isn’t done on a regular bases and you must wash your own towels- that was a bit of a drag, but manageable. Overall- our stay was great! Love the condo and facilities!

Beautiful condo with great location.

The condo was beautiful and location was great for going out shopping and to restaurants. It is kept very clean. You could barely hear the bass of the music from a bar but it didn’t bother us at all. However the beach was a big disappointment. Apparently it was seaweed season and there were mounds of it with bugs in it on the beaches all up and down the condo. The ocean was brown because of it. We tried to swim in the ocean but because it was so dark you couldn’t see the rocks and they hurt to walk on. It was also itchy. We went to Excaret one day and took a tour to Tulum and Paraíso beach, which was gorgeous and had very little seaweed. We had a great time in Playa and felt safe. There were police everywhere! We ate at Alux, the restaurant in a cave, the food was delicious and it was beautiful. Everyone was very friendly wherever we went. I recommend TransferUSA to get from the airport in Cancun. Round trip it was $110 and it was so easy, especially arriving at the Cancun airport where it was crazy outside. They had our name on a board and took great care of us.

Perfect first trip to Mexico

We were visiting Playa del Carmen from Australia for the first time. I'd done hours of research for accommodation and thus condo did not disappoint. The property itself is perfect. 2 min walk to 5th Avenue with all the shops, bars & restaurants. Next door to Les Amis which we visited daily for breakfast baguettes and the best fresh juices. The pool and beach area is superb. Plenty of sun lounges and umbrellas and even a masseuse which gave me the best back massage I've ever had. The condo itself was also great. Very spacious and well equipped. The roof terrace is an added bonus and the kids loved the plunge pool in the afternoons when the main pool was in the shade. We walked the beach and decided El Faro is definitely the best condo on the beach in Playa del Carmen. You can't go wrong & we'd highly recommend. A couple of very minor points, the shower in the main bedroom leaks & becomes a trip hazard when using the toilet (very slippery). We had to mop it up with towels each day. An easy fix for the maintenance crew. Used towels were not replaced by the housekeeping service which left us short on face clothes for the kids. It is loud as per previous comments. The noise starts early ~8.30/9pm and goes until all hours but we managed to sleep through no problem. All in all a very pleasant stay. Thank you!
