We were thrilled with our stay at El Taj. The condo was spacious and clean. The location, just a block off 5th Ave, was perfect, but still quiet. The staff at the hotel was very helpful and we would definitely stay here again!
Beautiful 3 bedroom condo which is literally one block from the night life and shopping. Right on the ocean with lovely views and the perfect jacuzzi for night time relaxing. Gorgeous pools and grounds. Highly recommend this place! Staff was also very nice and accommodating. Also included free parking in the onsite garage which was an extra bonus since it allowed us to retain a car for the week.
Everyone at the resort was great. Good restaurants within walking distance. Would have given 5 stars but there wasnt really a beach. There was a small strip of sand and not a place to go into the wayer.
We planned a visit to check on my daughter who is staying in Playa for an immersion program. This place is so plush and beautiful and like a hidden oasis. It was perfect for our weekend, even if the weather didn’t cooperate for us to be able to visit the beach! We got to see 5th ave on Dia De Los Muertos and it was so fun. Awesome location. Easy checking/out process. Awesome staff. Perfect for our needs!
We loved the short walk to Playa Del Carmen’s shopping & fabulous restaurants! Thank you Laura for hosting our first annual family vacation in Mexico…the kids are already talking about when we will be returning!
Great condo. Loved the private beachfront hot tub as well as easy access to the swimming pool. The condo was very nice, clean and well stocked. All the top restaurants are within walking distance. Great vacation
This was a great spot if you want to be in the action. The sargassum was annoying, but that was because there was a big storm when we were there. They clear it out pretty quickly.
I got to know the engineering staff quite well due to numerous equipment / appliances / fixtures being broken or in disrepair. All were eventually fixed and was only bearable as I was working remotely. If one is on holiday, you shouldn't have to invest your time into managing property repairs. In fairness, I was told the unit was not used extensively due to Covid and in any coastal environment, the salt and humidity takes its toll. But that should not be the renters issue. The on-site Property manager also cited supply chain issues which has reeked havoc globally. Completely understandable but not what was bargained for. The property Manager did offer a rebate for the inconvenience. The Beach / Bar staff was phenomenal. Although the beach is very narrow. The VRBO images are from years ago. The beach in front of El Taj in very narrow. Maybe worth looking at Google Earth for current condition at your booking window. Finally no reflection on the facility as they can't control this but the entire Riviera Maya has a seaweed issue. Check calendar for most severe window. it was a minimal issue the first 3 weeks but from March 17 on, in our case it, became problematic and very odorous. The unit would be great if properly maintained and again, the staff was fabulous and attentive!!!!
What an amazing property. The pictures are exactly as they seem. This condo-hotel is a wonderful experience. The master king bedroom literally looks at the Ocean, as does the living room. The secondary King has a view as well, though slightly obstructed. The pool and cold jacuzzi pool are also exactly as described. The condo-hotel shares a beach with fishing and diving boats, which makes swimming from the beach club challenging but not impossible. There were small children building tiny sandcastles, but there is not much room on the beach. We dove four times with Phantom divers, their dive shop a 3-minute walk from the condo and we had an amazing experience. I suspect the fishing is equally as good, as we would watch the catches come in daily. My family of 5 stayed here for four nights and we really enjoyed it. The location of the condo in proximity of the fun streets of Playa to wander about is simply perfect. You are close to the crazy bars, but not so close that you hear them when you want to go to bed, and everything felt very safe the entire time. The beds are super firm, and the hotel staff is impeccable. I would definitely recommend this spot.
3 bedroom, 3 bathroom direct oceanfront unit at El Taj oceanfront exceeded our expectations. The entire staff is amazing! Laura C. took great care of our room! Stephanie at the front desk was extra friendly and efficient. Marian, the concierge was very helpful in booking transfers and covid tests. We are looking forward to coming back to Playa in the future and will certainly return to El Taj!
Very nice and clean condo right on the beach. We really liked how close it was to the center of town and all of the restaurants, clubs and shopping. We would highly recommend to friends and family.
