Stayed May 30, 2024The place was perfect, right on the beach yet close to everything you may need from groceries, dining, shopping, activities. Walkable to all of the fore mentioned. Our condo had all of the necessities. Loved waking up looking at the water. Our family of 6 had a nice relaxing week.

Stayed May 24, 2023The property is as described and you can just walk to the local shops, restaurants and the beach. There’s only two things I will like to point out, they have the slowest Wi-fi ever and I wish they would of say at front you have to pay for parking. The description does not mention you have to pay around 15 U.S. dollars per day, I got the notice right before my check in, too late to look for another option. Overall the condo and the area are great!

Stayed Dec 28, 2024The property appears to be very well managed. Both the rental unit and the grounds were clean, secure and well maintained. The unit was very well appointed and all the appliances worked. A beautiful pool & beach. Our only complaint was that we had trouble with the internet. It took 3 days to connect, & when connected - it was slow. Also, the nightclub music from around the corner (especially the low base notes) kept my husband awake - even with earplugs. I was able to ignore it & sleep. Overall, our family of 4 had an absolutely wonderful holiday! Thank you for the memories.

Stayed Jul 22, 2024Beautiful quiet property close to everything in Playa del Carmen. Loved the umbrella service everyday and the cool bar/restaurant on the beach next door. Had a couple of broken items in the rental but maintenance came next morning and fixed them promptly. Would stay there again

Stayed Mar 28, 2024On an earlier stay in El Faro, we were in a different building. This condo/building offered a superior experience. The photos well represent the quality of the furnishings, kitchen appliances and bathrooms' double vanities. Not shown is the master bath houses a full-sized washer and dryer. Big bonus! The view from the balcony is lovely, while the location shields you from the nightlife/partying that nearby venues offer. The security patrol is another bonus - the property's yellow wrist bands designating El Faro guests; those without are promptly escorted away. the El Faro pools are the envy of the area, and the photos are true to life. Other reviews highlighted the wall art as porno/offensive, a viewpoint we did not share. Also negatively reviewed was the furniture coverings - coverings we appreciated as protecting the couches from our sunscreened bodies. We returned to El Faro because of the pools, security, and proximity to Playa's avenues of restaurants and shopping. Already planning our next trip!

Stayed Mar 22, 2024The condo was fantastic. It was well stocked with all the appliances, bedding and linen, plus water bottles ready to go. It was clean and the location of the complex is close to everything such as shops, restaurants, transportation, diving and the beach is steps away. The staff of El Faro is amazing and work so hard to make guests comfortable. It’s always appreciated when owners of these condos rent them out so we can enjoy a vacation.

Stayed Feb 22, 2024First of all - the good! Great location!!! Property managers were prompt when called about fixing issues. The balcony was nice and views were as depicted. The bad - the couches had ugly brown covers on them and there was a huge strange naked lady pic on the wall. I immediately pulled up the listing to make sure I was in the right place because I would have never selected this unit based on how it looks now. Please just get new couches and maybe beach themed art - or update pics to show people what they are really getting.

Stayed Feb 11, 2024We love El Faro, and have stayed there several times! This condo was fine, but not our fav! The only “issue”, was the pictures were not quite accurate. The worst was the very ugly, sloppy, brown slipcovers on what was pictured as a beautiful white couch and loveseat! They were ill-fitted and make it impossible to use the love seat! In addition, the artwork was very odd! Abstract naked lady above our bed! And the large “Some Girls, Rolling Stones” album cover, and another Rolling Stones concert poster in the bathroom, of another naked woman, just a bit awkward. None of which are pictured in the condo photos. Would have preferred a more Mexican or beach vibe! Just not our style! Last thought: we wish they would figure out the chairs at the pool situation. Every morning it is a battle of the fittest, and most aggressive, fight for pool chairs…a total morning nightmare, unfortunately! Every year we hope they will figure out a new system! All that being said El Faro is still the best place to stay in Playa! The best location and pool!!!
