My family and I had a terrific stay at El Faro. Lovely pool, right on the beach, clean and cosy accommodations. The beds were comfortable. Everything was close by. Friendly and helpful staff. Lots to do in the area.

Loved our stay here! Would come again.
Pros:
- ground level unit with unobstructed view to pool and ocean, you just step out to the pool/ocean! We spent soooo much time on the patio, talking and reading.
- the listing doesn't say it, but there is an IN UNIT WASHER AND DRYER! So great
- wonderful condo staff, front desk assistance
- SO close to 5th Ave, a Circle K for convenience items, pharmacy, etc. Shopping, eating, is a breeze!
- well appointed kitchen, d/w, comfortable beds, nice showers, able to log into Netflix, amazon, etc on TV.
- great a/c, able to change temp in each bedroom
Cons:
- wifi is iffy - worked about 50% of the time, sometimes we lost netflix or had to walk to the lobby to connect.
- the large deck from the waterfall pool edge to the ocean had sunken into the sand (erosion?), so while we were there, it was all roped off, which was a bummer. Hopefully fixed soon?, but maybe something to ask about.
- grill works, but could use a lighter and a scraper
- If you have more than 4 people, the listing says "sleeps 6," and they are counting a small futon style item in the front entrance hallway. There was no bedding we could find. And it's v. small, children only.
Other:
-Lido is the BEST restaurant, right next door. Don't eat at Tropical, we got sick from the ice there.
-The host can help with an airport shuttle! (we had already booked one before we knew)
-We had difficult grocery delivery from loQsea (never came) & Walmart (v. v. late). Beware.

We stayed here in February and had to return to enjoy more vacation life. It's out 6th time at El Faro. The staff is professional kind and courteous. Corrina at the front desk is a gem! Returning again soon.

Condo was well maintained, and it's close to everything in Playa: 5th Ave restaurants and shops, Walmart 7 mins walking, Oxxo/7-eleven 1 block away, etc. Having the pool just in front of the terrace was a plus. There's security on the beach side, so this gives a lot of privacy to the people staying at the condos. As a suggestion, would be good to have handy in the condo some brochures on places that deliver food.
