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!!

Beautiful condo

We have stayed at other condos at El Faro and coral 303 was the perfect condo...Between the views and the beautiful condo. We would definitely stay here again. It’s a block from 5th Ave. and next to Zenzi’s... a half block from Dirty Martini Lounge. Location... location ... location.

3rd stay. Wonderful

Love everything about El Faro. Location. Pool. Beach. It's lively yet chill. The desk people were great. Housekeeping so nice. Security guards are so kind. I stayed a month and had a great time discovering Playa. Pepe the cab driver is a gem.

Excellent location but lousy beds

The condominium is great and the location is perfect for a family with teens. However, the condominium did not have some items at least we think are some basics for a rental: board games, pens (think bored teens during a rain storm) and the like.

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

Gorgeous get away

Pictures don't do justice how beautiful of a view we had. Condo was clean and front desk staff was friendly. Security rounded very often so we felt safe. Very close to 5th Avenue action and clubs but once inside it was very quiet. Had a problem with dishwasher but property management was quick to resolve it. We would love to come back and stay her again. Highly recommend!
