The view is stunning, the location couldn’t be better, and the pool area was awesome! We loved staying here! The staff at the El Faro Condos were amazing - they recognized and started conversations with each guest, and were so helpful! There were, however, a lot of things in the condo that were disappointing. Our host responded within 36 hours of our message that we didn’t have kitchen towels or hot pads, and only one coffee mug. Small general maintenance issues included: oven falling out of its space, microwave falling off its shelf, toilet tank cracked, the kitchen faucet sprayed half into the counter when used, the blinds that would not go higher than waist high in the bedroom, and consistent construction noise on the floor every day for at least 3 hours. We enjoyed the live music next door every night, except for a few nights that go really late or loud. Most of the time, it’s not audible in the bedroom.Please understand - we LOVED our stay, and this condo is amazing! We just were disappointed with the maintenance of it. Carina, Paco and the daytime and night security were truly fantastic! Thank you!!

Check in was great. Friendly staff. Apartment was spacious and clean. Limited general supplies, such as towels, kitchen supplies, such as tea towels and oven mitts. Patio door was broken and required 2 people to open. Balcony very small with no seating. Not enough pillows for 4 guests. Great location

The apartment gave me one of the most pleasant stays in Playa del Carmen after several years.it has an amqzing View of the ocean, close to all the nice places in town and it has everything you need to have a great time. Deferment has a nice restaurant across the street that plays music but I did not have any problem at all and actually I felt that I was getting a band show for free while I was sitting on the balcony drinking a beer or a glass of wine.I loved the swimming pool facing the ocean, it is just few steps from areas with white sand on south side one but you have to walk more to go to the famous playa mamita's which is a great spot to meet people.The only recommendation for the owner is to check the toilets because sometimes the water kept running, the security is great at the main FYI- all your visits are during the day and no one is allowed in the evening unless they are registered as guest. I will be back if the apartment is available in my next trip.Don't hesitate to book this apartmen. I think it's perfect for a couple but a third person will be difficult unless they don't mind to sleep on couch.Thank you!!!

207S is on the street side with an ocean view. The open air night club restaurant across the street has great food and service but plays SUPER loud music EVERY night, so it was impossible to fall asleep to the sound of ocean waves lapping on the shore, which is a shame because they are literally a few feet away from the condo balcony. The good part is that the view is fabulous, the location is great for tourist activities, it felt very safe, I was able to enjoy the ocean peacefully every morning and during the daylight hours from my balcony when I stayed home. No dishwasher in this unit, cabinets doors on one side of the kitchen where mostly defaced- that does not show in the pictures so that was weird, but they functioned fine. Only one of the AC units worked. The big problem for me was that VACASA requires that you email photo ID and they do not offer any type of secure upload for this. I asked for a secure upload link which they never provided but instead told me to send a photograph of my picture id or passport to private email address! They threatened to cancel my reservation if I did not do it, so I had to comply- they had my credit card number and would have charged me a huge cancelation fee. This policy is very risky for patrons who are particular about online security so beware. The pool was great but the deck going to the beach was in disrepair and roped off.
