We had an amazing stay at El Faro.The location is incredible. The beach is literally about 10 feet away. The pool is right beside the condo and downtown Playa del Carmen is directly behind you. Everything is within walking distance including restaurants, shops, and the Cozumel ferry just a few blocks away.Our flight was delayed and we arrived much later than expected, but there is 24 hour security on site and the guard was able to open our unit for us right away, which made the late arrival very easy.Even though the property is very central, it was not overly loud at night. Since you are right on the beach you will hear people talking on the sand in the evenings, but for us it was never disruptive.The condo itself was spacious and comfortable. The beds were comfortable and we always felt very safe.The unit is minimally stocked with supplies, just a few mini shampoos, conditioner and a bar of soap provided. However a Soriana grocery store is about a half mile walk away and you can purchase extra stuff.We stayed five nights and could easily have stayed longer. Overall this is one of the best locations in Playa del Carmen and we would absolutely stay here again.
