DETAILS TO NOTE
- Please be aware that seaweed is a natural phenomenon that hits Quintana Roo beaches, especially during the summer months (Apr-Oct). While the local team at El Faro and the municipality make every effort to clean up the seaweed, it can still impact beach conditions and your ability to enjoy the ocean. As it decomposes, it may also produce strong odors. Please make yourself aware of the current state of the seaweed, as we cannot offer refunds for any issues related to seaweed.

- The central location of this property gives you access to the best that downtown Playa del Carmen has to offer. Due to our location next to restaurants and bars, you may experience some noise at this location. We do not offer refunds for noise issues. We appreciate your understanding and hope you enjoy your stay!

- The beach in front of El Faro will come and go seasonally, at times the ocean comes all the way up to the deck and the common area administration will block this area for security purposes. Please exercise caution and comply with any common area association rules.

- Your booking automatically includes a damage protection policy. Should any minor accidental damages occur during your stay, we will cover you up to $1,000. We understand accidents happen, so we've got your back! However, if we determine damage was willful or negligent, we will charge an additional cost based on the damage itself.

- We have a no-tolerance rule about parties and loud noise, so please be aware that complaints from neighbors, notifications from authorities, notifications from our noise monitoring software, or any other proof of disruptive behavior or loud noise between 10:00 PM and 8:00 AM will result in fines of up to $1000.00, possible eviction and / or possible legal action if authorities are involved.

-The beach condition changes every day, weather and hurricanes tend to affect how wide the sand area is in our photos- sometimes the water reaches up to the deck.

- Please note that due to El Faro's security protocols, before your arrival, we will request a photo of each guest's ID that will be at the property during your stay.

Have any questions about our home or location? Please let us know! We hope to host you soon!

Loved the place!

My wife and I decided to take a little adult trip and while we were there we were able to take the ferry over to Cozumel for some amazing snorkeling. This location is so close to anything you may want. The lounging at pool was also a highlight. So many different restaurants and good food within walking distance. We have already booked again so we most certainly are going back.

This property is all about the location being on the ocean and also centrally located about 1 block from 5th Street where shops/restaurants and such line the street. If you're looking for a quiet, relaxing accommodation, this wouldn't be the place. The reviews are correct in saying the nitely music is loud until about 2:30-3am. The actual condo needs some revamping. Exterior paint is peeling. Spiral stairs to the rooftop are rusted with loose board. Barbeque needed a lighter to be lit, and the grate was disgusting. We bought aluminum foil on which to cook. Appeared as though the stove wasn't used ever and the microwave minimally. Additional pots/pans/containers for leftovers would be nice. I will say that the water dispenser was a great surprise (I missed that in the property photos)! The sofa (futon maybe you call it with the sleeper) was uncomfortable. Only 2 of the plastic chairs on the balcony had cushions, and even so, the cushions hung way out over the seat of the chair. The rooftop furniture was nicer. Nice touch for palm plants but need some water. Fortunately we have an Amazon Prime membership and figured out how to watch TV that way. Otherwise, no TV. Router had to be reset often. Shower pans didn't allow water to reach drains, so showers were taken in inches of standing water from previous shower. Housekeeping came every other day but didn't show our last 3 days. Folks on property don't do anything for this condo. We were missing washcloths/dish towels.
