Views are amazing. The space was good. The only things that we had an issue with were the hot water in showers, smell from washing machine and they didn’t supply wash cloths only towels. But otherwise we loved it,

Our family of 4, with adult kids, loved staying here. The place was in a perfect location and had all the amenities we needed. Steps from the beach and next door to the shopping center with a great grocery store so we could make meals and eat in/on the beach. Best tacos and ceviche at Tia Juana Tacos, across the street.
Gina, the host was quick to reply to every need.
Thank you!
Literally a few steps from the beach and 3 pools. Big shopping mall across the street with a grocery store, pharmacy and souvenir shops. Convenience store right next door.The condo has everything you need to cook your own meals. This is a gated community and feels very safe. Georgina was quick to respond with any questions we had. Definitely recommend.
This condo is right on the water with 3 pools to enjoy. The beach was beautiful and there were many restaurants within walking distance. The layout is a bit strange with 2 bathrooms on the first level and the kitchen and a bedroom upstairs. The fans did not work. It is very comfortable.

I´m sorry to hear you´re not fully satisfied with your experience.
During certain seasons, like this one in Cancun, occupancy is high and the pools can be crowded.
The bathroom smelled so bad, they came to check but nothing changed

We were surprised to learn about the issue with the bathroom through your review, as we were never contacted directly during your stay.

Had we known, we would have done everything possible to address it or offer you an alternative solution.
Please know that the satisfaction of our guests is our top priority, and we remain committed to continuously improving our service. We encourage all our guests to reach out to us during their stay — we are always here to help.

The property is in a great location, right off the beach and behind a Huge mall where you can buy groceries. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were nice but I wish the kitchen was more equipped, but this is a new listing so I’m sure it will get better. The host had great communication and stayed in constant communication throughout our stay. The community had three pools and a bar that served pretty good food at a good price. The security was always present and we felt safe in the location. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Over all we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Property is very comfortable and pleasantly decorated. Host was very good with leaving instructions. Condominium complex is a little older and quirky, but security at the complex is terrific and they keep the property very clean. The living room has a beautiful view of the ocean, even with the roof top of the lower property. The only thing to be aware of is that one bedroom is on the upper level while the second bedroom , which is very spacious is on the second level, and both bathrooms were on the 1st level. This condo also has lots of storage space. Would definitely rent this property again.
This condo is clean and functional. Both bathrooms are on the main floor so be aware that people in the upstairs bedroom will have to travel down stairs to use the facilities. Beds were comfortable. Air conditioners worked well. These are older condos right on the pretty and well-maintained Marlin Beach. Building maintenance has their hands full upkeeping the exteriors, common areas and pools from the sea air damage. Like in many places, there seems to be a lack of effective plumbing traps and ventilation so sewer smells are present in the bathrooms. We have chosen to stay in this facility twice because of the beach, secure parking, and walkable access to the Soriana grocery store and CDS Dental for dental work. A perfect location for us.
The location was perfect! Beautiful ocean is front of our condo and the bus stop to downtown was just a feet away.
Wi-fi worked perfectly and shower worked fine with hot water. Besides the ocean view, the reason why I chose this place was because there was a laundry machines. It was great to be able to use the dryer before packing. All the rooms were very clean and comfortable.
However there was one problem with a room in downstairs, there was quite few insects (big ants looking insects with wings) started to fly around at night and it landed on me while I was sleeping and it kept waking me up, but it didn’t bite or anything like that. Otherwise I strongly recommend this room and the owner Gina was very helpful and made our stay very comfortable. Thank you very much Gina!

Sad how we were never told about the construction
Ok to be fair this is a decent spot when there isn’t hammering 8 hrs a day 6 days a week , the entire building was under repair , they knew this yet didn’t tell us before , so we went and put up with the noise , after we simply asked for a fair portion refund , they denied our request saying it wasn’t there fault yet they knew and could have been decent enough to tell us if we wanted to look for another place , so I’d say this group can’t be trusted to be fair, I’d book elsewhere simply because they think of profit over customer service , and I’ve never give a bad review before and we didn’t try to work things out fairly and respectfully.
The condo was nicely located in a quieter area of the Hotel Zone and was a great foundation for our activities. The property has three pool areas and a gorgeous beach out front. One of the pools has a little snack bar/liquor bar, which was handy. And the staff was very friendly and attentive and we really appreciated each and every one that worked there.
The condo itself is nicely furnished and the bed we used on the 2nd floor was very comfortable. The kitchen is pretty well equipped (except for coffee filters; we left ours for the next guess, as we had to search for some in the area stores). The host thoughtfully left us a bottle of wine, which was a nice touch. There was no wine opener, but we provided feedback about that, so hopefully there will be one very soon. One word of caution: You can see the ocean from the deck, but the view of the beach is mostly obstructed by the roof of the condo in front of the unit. It was still enjoyable to sit out there and watch the waves, though.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I´m sorry to hear that your experience didn´t meet your expectations.
For us, the most important thing is that you enjoy your stay to the fullest. Our staff, who was attentive to your stay, did not receive any notification from you during your stay to be able to correct these inconveniences. I appreciate your comments and we will do everything necessary to ensure that our Future guests have a better experience like all our previous guests.
I hope that your request that we eliminate the charge for cleaning the apartment since you could do it on your own, since your wife, as you mentioned, was a former cleaning lady, has not affected you much, but as I told you at the time, we must make sure that procedures were followed appropriately.

About the host
Hosted by Gina Lee
I really enjoy getting to know new places, people, trying the typical food of each city I visit and nature.
Why they chose this property
I am fascinated by this place because of its proximity to the sea and its beautiful turquoise color and soft white sand. Close to everything, but at the same time in a quiet space. Cancun is for me one of the paradises on earth.
What makes this property unique
Enjoying the sunrise or sunset from your balcony is priceless. You can make a vacation that suits you, you have around shopping, nightclubs, beach, restaurants with typical food or international gourmet food, water sports, tours to the jungle, the pyramids, you can go fishing, sailing, diving, snorkeling, swim with the huge whale shark or simply enjoy the beach, the pools, you decide.
