Nice Comfortable Place

Check in was easy and the porter showed us to our room with our bags. The condo was just as described with a great view of the pool and ocean. The kitchen was well equipped, plus they had a water cooler with several extra bottles of water which was great! The beds were both pretty comfortable and house cleaning came by every other day. The only issue we had was connecting to the units Wi-Fi, the information provided in our check-in instructions, the information on the plastic card, along with the QR code in the condo were all incorrect. Luckily, I looked at the Wi-Fi modem and found the name of the network and password, so we were able to connect. Not sure what the status was of the property manager, I emailed him before our trip, and the front desk (supposedly) tried to contact him about the Wi-Fi issue, but he never responded. The unit was quiet during the day, except for the night clubs up on 5th or 10th street and from 10-2 every night the music is quite loud. Overall, this condo is in a great location, so many restaurants and shops only a few minutes away, the pool was very well thought out and was a fun place to socialize and relax. Overall, it was a very comfortable place for the four of us, we had a great time, and we would stay here again.

Perfect location

We have stayed at El Faro several times in the past and we continue to come back because of the great location and staff. This was our first time in this particular room and while it met our needs and was clean and tidy, I would comment that the unit could benefit from a deep clean especially of the bathrooms. Other than that the unit was great and met our needs.

Comfortable stay but updates needed

Upon arrival a/c was not working. Mssg’d contacts but never heard back from them whatsoever. Front desk helped us get a hold of the repair crew and they were able to fix issue after a few attempts. It was very hot and uncomfortable for a few hours, but glad it was repaired that same day (night by then). During our entire stay, all a/c units stayed the same temp since we weren’t able to change it, and it was freezing…but we rather that than it not working at all. Cleanliness was mid. After each heavy rainfall, we noticed the main room had a leak in the ceiling and the other room a leak from the wall by the restroom. TV in living room does not power on/off with the remote - even with their note that states not to use tv to power it, we had no choice but to do so. The entire room itself could use better cleaning and a few upgrades wouldn’t hurt. Location was very convenient. Staff was good.

Horrible host

I emailed the host & concierge several times for early check in & never heard back. While there asked for beach towels for the 5 guests booked, no reply. Our toilet tank broke in the middle of the night & flooded the lower apt. Never heard from the host to clean up all the water or give us new towels! We only had the master bath to use for 5 people the rest of the time. Zero communication from host!!!!

Ok stay, no jacuzzi like stated originally.

The place was clean, property manager very professional. Jacuzzi did not work as originally stated in advertisement. Master bedroom is great, other bedroom has very poor air circulation and was air was damp. Master bed was great and comfortable, other bed was very uncomfortable. Location was great close to everything. Overall 3 stars.

A Week in Riviera Maya

The El Faro is an absolutely great condo property and in the perfect location. Close proximity to 5th Ave. with everything it has to offer and right on the beach. The fact this property is so pedestrian-friendly is very appealing for us when traveling to Riviera Maya that it brings us back year after year. We really don't need a car unless we want to take our own excursion and if so it's very easy to rent a car for a day or go with a local excursion provider. You're surrounded with countless restaurants and things to do from the El Faro location it suits us pefectly.

Great condo in an even better location!

This property was great for our family. The beach was awesome and you can’t beat the location in proximity to 5th ave. There were some things that were lacking; such as no hand towels or dish towels (which normally wouldn’t matter but the dish washer was out of service) or linens for the pull out couch (which we needed to use since we have 3 children) but all in all it was a really good property.

Great location, great rooftop deck

El Faro is in the perfect spot in Playa and Reef 403 is a great unit. Well placed, well outfitted, well maintained - and a solid concierge as well. You can't beat the privacy of the rooftop deck and plunge pool, and you also have the amazing El Faro pool and beach. We will be back!

Conveniently located

Property is nice, great for two couples traveling, or a small family. The rooftop was also nice and private, although I believe the hot tub should be taken off this listing as it was full of water but looked as if it was not even able to be plugged in. Separately, you are given two keys upon arrival. We requested two more but had to put down an additional deposit. We were told we would get the money back but I do not believe we did. Security was good, front desk is only staffed during daytime hours, though. The location is very convenient to 5th Avenue shops, bars, restaurants, and clubs. We did not have to rent a car or cab at all.

A great vacation!

We had a fantastic time at El Faro 403 Condo. It was clean and very well equipped with all the amenities you need to have a great relaxing vacation. And the views of the ocean are superb! Any additional help we needed was always available from their awesome staff. We will be back for sure! See you soon!👍😎
