About Annette Forer
We are Annette and Frank and we love traveling to Cancun! We live in Canada and we are both teachers so we try to get away somewhere warmer on our vacations. This picture is taken on a trip to Isla Mujeres, a twenty minute ferry ride away. We hope you will enjoy your stay as much as we enjoy our trips to Cancun!
Annette Forer purchased this condo in 2008
Why Annette Forer chose Quintana Roo
We would recommend this property to you because it combines the best of both worlds. If you prefer, you can purchase the all-inclusive option at the front desk of the hotel for part or all of your stay. The rates are as little as $35 US per adult per day if you purchase for three days. It's a great family resort, but we enjoy it as a couple on our own as well. You will find the children's daily program outstanding if you bring the family. It allows you some time to yourself knowing the kids are having fun and that they are safe. There is great swimming and there are many activities to keep you busy from games to yoga to shows and water activities. If you want a great day, pack your sunscreen and swim gear and catch the nearby ferry for a fabulous day at Isla Mujeres. Taxis are available right outside the front door of the hotel. The island also has wonderful night life. We highly recommend La Tigrena restaurant where you can eat while sinking your toes into the sand! The hotel has four restaurants and eating areas, two bars including a swim up bar in the main pool, water activities, entertainment, a huge water park for the kids, a large beach area, an enormous sun deck over the ocean, a laundry, gift shop, and children's program. All of this comes at a very affordable price!
What makes this condo unique
The view from the balcony will have you spending many hours relaxing with a glass of wine or a beverage of your choice watching the boats sail in and out of the marina. Across the water you can see Isla Mujeres which lights up when the sun sets and if you are lucky you can view a thunderstorm as it flashes across the distant ocean at night! You will find a friendly and accommodating staff to help you with any questions you might have during your stay. One thing to note is that the beach does get some short, narrow seaweed at times depending upon the direction of the wind and current. This is more obvious during the late winter and spring months, and virtually disappears in late spring. It is cleaned up on a daily basis from the shoreline. What you get in exchange is calm, peaceful waters that do not have an undertow or riptide. There are not large waves. This makes the ocean much calmer and a great place to swim. Remember, there are two swimming pools should this bother you.

Very Good!

Wonderful view
The apartment is clean and well equipped. It has everything you need to cook. This is my second time staying here. Annette is very attentive to your needs. I recommend it for anyone who wants to save some money but still have the amenities of a resort. The most impressive for me was the view of the ocean from the balcony.
Amazing View!!
The view is beautiful. It's right on the beach, and the beach is fairly quiet (so relaxing). The waves are gentle, like your own personal lagoon. The unit has ample space. The kitchen had all the necessities. Frankie, the property manager, was super personable and helpful. The owner was kind and informative. Both provided lots of tips and tricks for getting around and places to eat in the area. The unit is at a large resort so it's easy to tell the taxi drivers where to take you back to.
All Ritmo
The property was clean and very secure. Being away from the hotel zone was an unexpected bonus. From the view of the balcony to the easy access of the beech, the friendliness of the staff made our stay very special. The restaurants within walking distance serve daily fresh caught sea food at very reasonable prices. All and all it was a wonderful Mexican experience.

Good value, as advertised
Reasons this is for you: If you want a quiet beachfront stay on a budget, plan to cook your own food, and relax a lot
Reasons it is not for you: If you want lots to do beyond beach time within walking distance, If you are a very light sleeper (the A/C will wake you up), or if you have irrational expectations of fancy accommodations for a low price as others have pointed out.
Good accommodations and location for the money. The beachfront balcony was nice, but slightly inhibited by the glass railing being dirty (can't enjoy the view while sitting), but not a huge issue, there was always an available shaded spot on the beach with a nice view. Other resorts do clean up the sea grass on the beach every morning (this one does not). Be sure to buy bottled water if you stay, as no other water there is not good to drink, including in the gym as we found out :/. The only other issues we had were ants and a stinky mildew smell from the fridge (not food inside) became bad towards the end of the stay (which is why we didn't call up the manager about it), but that should be easy enough for the owner to fix, besides the fridge maybe.
The collectivo vans and public buses are much cheaper than taxi's, but don't bother if your Spanish is bad and/or you have a bad sense of directions, or you may end up somewhere else. We used the shuttle near the exit of the airport to get to the condo and saved a lot of money over a taxi. If you do the taxi, always ask how much before getting in and use pesos to avoid getting ripped off. The suggestion the owner provided to walk down the street and get a taxi is good advice to save more money compared to the taxis out in front.
All that said, I would recommend it and stay there again, assuming the ants, fridge, and balcony glass are taken care of.
Practical and workable.
Nice location beach front but somewhat remote. Nothing provided really. No cleaning services or change of linens. We paid to have sheets and towels washed weekly and did the general cleaning ourselves.
The stove top is electronic and very tricky but we finally figured it out.
We stayed the month of February and had great weather. We used taxis and collectivo to get out.
Bathroom could use an exhaust fan.
Great for the price. Thank you Annette
For the money excellent 👌👌👏
Ann and Freddie are great to work with 👏👏. For the money you can not go wrong here. Affordable Paradise on the Beach. The condo is clean with an amazing view of the ocean that is right outside your patio. It is stocked with the basic and has a kitchen, on the top floor near everything. It is in a quiet neighborhood, $5 taxi to anywhere. The pool, bar and restaurant are all good quality that you can do all-inclusive if you choose. I will be coming back for sure. Cancun, has something for everybody. 👌👌😎🎉🍸💃🏽🍺🌮

If you are looking for a vacation place to bring the family or just a quieter vacation for one or two, then this is your place! Our condo is located near the Puerto Juarez ferry in the All Ritmo resort, formerly Sea Adventure.
You can choose whether you want to cook your meals in the condo or if you wish to buy into the all-inclusive. Select as many days as you wish for cooking or the all-inclusive! The onsite water park, two swimming pools, the beach with palm trees and palapas, a huge sun deck, restaurants, water activities, nightly entertainment with shows and games all await you here. A short walk will take you to Mayan ruins and bus/vans are located right outside the resort to take you to the markets, hotel zone, night life, shopping and more! A lovely ocean side church is located just up the road as are two restaurants. The hotel can arrange any excursions you wish to take and you can park your rental car for free right at the resort. We have lots of information to email you if you wish to know more about the resort and the area.
