My stay at El Taj Oceanfront was truly nice. the service was really good, with attentive staff who really went above and beyond. I loved the spaciousness of my room, and the beach club was perfect for relaxing in the sun. However, the beach area was narrow with boats parked close by, which made swimming less than ideal.

I stayed in a lovely two-bedroom condo that was spacious and clean. the ocean view from the balcony was absolutely amazing. Having a personal hot tub added a luxurious touch, though I found it odd that only one set of robes was provided for three guests.

El Taj is conveniently located right off 5th Avenue, making it easy to explore Playa del Carmen. the vibrant atmosphere of the nearby restaurants and shops added to the experience. However, the beach's condition was a downside, limiting direct access to pristine sand.

My stay at El Taj Oceanfront And Beachside Condo Hotel was quite nice! The location is excellent, right in the heart of Playa del Carmen, with easy access to the beach and 5th Avenue. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. However, I did experience some issues with water outages during my visit, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, it was a good experience, but not without its hiccups.

Overall, my stay at El Taj Oceanfront And Beachside Condo Hotel had its ups and downs. The condo itself was gorgeous and spacious, with great amenities like a rooftop terrace and serene views. However, the beach situation was quite disappointing due to seaweed buildup, which made swimming impossible. The service definitely had some highlights, especially with friendly staff, but I experienced an awful interaction at checkout that put a damper on my trip.

I had a great stay at El Taj Oceanfront and Beachside Condo Hotel. The location was perfect, just a short walk from nightlife and shopping, and the ocean views were stunning. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. However, I did notice that some areas, like the bathrooms, felt a bit dated and could use some upgrading.
