Ernie's condo is beautiful and restful after a day of adventure, on Quinta, or on the beach. It's much bigger than we expected, and those couches are so comfy and cool. From the balcony is a jungle view of trees and birds. If there's construction when you get there, don't worry. We were very annoyed at the sound when we got out of the cab , but Ernie's is far away enough in the complex that's it's mostly muffled; I could take a nap in the day without feeling disturbed, and I'm a light sleeper. The complex is beautiful, with foliage all around. The rooftop pool was peaceful, with no kids, and while it could use a couple of umbrellas, I was able to stay around one of the trees for shade.
I read a review of a different complex, and the reviewer mentioned going to MegaMart for garbage bags, dish soap, etc. Ernie's has everything, from coffee filters to Ziplocks. It seems everybody leaves it a little better than when they came. We replaced what we used, and left our good bug spray too, because we never used it. And we never went to MegaMart! There's a "Mini Super" just a couple blocks up on Quinta and 40th, and it really has almost everything a supermarket does. The beach is very close, and we were able to walk to a perfect spot. The backpack beach chairs are light to carry, and with one of the small coolers and the umbrella they made it perfect for beach days. To go to Quinta, we recommend going over a block to 38th, and taking your time to walk up the 2 short blocks. There's a cenote in the sidewalk, cool restaurants, and a lot of details that I think will make it popular once it gets "discovered," so you'll want to see it now.
At the end of the day, we loved coming "home" to relax on those great couches while listening to the birds in the small jungle across the balcony. There's a good size TV too, and there were a number of English speaking channels and movies, but we didn't use it much.
We just can't say enough great things about our stay in Ernie's condo!
