Wasn’t sure about the leave key. Couldn’t lock as we put it in the access table in hall. Nobody was
It was a great relaxing time. The neighborhood was great. We have gotten to know the locals over the years and really love the location of the condo. Thanks for everything!! Bring extra cash, as the restaurants mostly take cash, especially the Joint one of our favorites. The taxis take card, which helps.

Overall nice place
Overall, I would recommend this place to stay. The views were great, very clean, and the location was excellent. The downstairs area was nice and cool. The worst part, however, was the master bedroom and bathroom area. Despite turning the AC down, it stayed VERY humid up there, and it was too uncomfortable to sleep. We ended up moving to the second bedroom downstairs, which worked just fine. Also the kitchen is minimally stocked, so cooking isn’t as easy as in other places. Lastly, the communication with the property manager was decent, although not always timely. Also, the cell phone numbers we were given could only be dialed from a landline, which became very problematic when we turned our keys in and suddenly realized we needed back in the room for an item. Again, overall not unhappy, but there was room for improvement.

Short but SWEET!
Our stay in this condo was just perfect for our family of four. Location and views are exactly what we wanted for our short stay in isla mujeres. Having a golf cart arranged for our arrival was do nice. We could start exploring the island as soon as we checked in. This condo had everything that we needed for a great vacation in isla mujeres. We highly recommend booking your stay in luxury. We will be back!

An Amazing Stay
This was our first stay on the island, and prior to our trip I asked many questions that were all answered quickly and which provided us with all of the information and resources we needed. A great example of this is that we had heard that tourists all drive golf carts around the island, instead of cars or Uber. I sent the property manager a question about this and I was immediately offered a golf cart rental to be delivered to the house for us when we checked in. The cost for the golf cart was comparable to the other companies, and we discovered throughout the week that we had used the best cart company on the island. Many of our friends had to go pick up their carts, returned them (more than once) for mechanical issues, and had to fill their golf carts with gas as needed. Our company came every other day and filled ours with gas (early in the am before we woke up), and this was included in the price. Another great example was a ‘leak’ that started in the upstairs bath. I sent the property mgr a text and someone was there within 30 mins to inspect it. The air conditioner had condensation on it, and they cleaned it up and stopped the drip immediately. Amazing property management! The house itself was very clean when we checked in, and had everything we needed in the kitchen, baths, laundry and closets to enjoy our stay. As far as the location, it is ideal for getting away from the crowds at the north end of the island, and still close to great restaurants and parks.

Great condo, great location
We were so impressed with this condo. It's located in a great location on the island. We were away from the busy area but still close to restaurants, beach clubs, and amenities. It has three balconies with stunning views! The manager was very helpful making recommendations for our stay. If you want a stunning condo near the island's south end, this is a terrific choice.

First Time
My husband and I have visited Isla Mujeres numerous times as day trips. This was our first time staying on the island. I must say I won’t do it any other way. This condo exceeded all of our expectations. The host was super nice, quick to respond, and helped us with all of our needs. They provided us with 5 gallon jugs of water (big deal to us in Mexico) and refilled quickly upon request. I feel the location was perfect for us. We rented scooters for the weekend so traveling outside of town to a quieter area was nice. There are some fun bars/restaurants near by. The photos do not do justice for the beauty of this condo. I loved sitting on the balcony or in the pool looking out at the ocean. My crew will definitely stay here again.

What a view!!
We stayed in penthouse unit 10 and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. It was clean, well layed out, had everything we needed and three balconies that had unbelievable views of the bay over to Cancun. It is on the south end of the island so much quieter but a little bit of a drive if you are spending a lot of time back and forth into town or north beach. We did a day at castillo garafon, which is the snorkeling park just behind the building. It is about $11 per person but a nice place to hang and good snorkeling for fish, but does close at 5pm. Unfortunately we were not able to use the pool as it was closed for an unexpected reconstruction, but it would have made the stay even better to come back and relax in the pool after a day on the beach. Delia, our host notified us of this issue and was very accommodating and was responsive and friendly to work with. Caesar was there to check us in and was very friendly. Overall, we would definitely stay here again. It is quiet and if you like to relax on the balcony and breath in the beauty of isla this is the place to be. The only downside is that there are quite a few steps to get to the unit as well as 3 floors inside. So if steps don’t bother you it’s a good quad workout.

Beautiful Penthouse Apartment
First off, be forewarned that this place involves a lot of steps, but that is how you get the spectacular views. The pool is on the ground level from the front of the building. And this 3 floor apartment starts on the third floor and goes up from there. Immediately behind the apartment building is Garrafón de Castillo beach resort. $10 per person. We snorkeled and lay on the beach with the iguanas, and then walked back over to the apartments and showered off at the pool before having a quick dip while enjoying the views from the pool. Definitely rent a golf cart for your stay so you can enjoy authentic Mexican food in mid-town. Places there cost half or less than The Joint (a few hundred feet from the apartment) or the North End pedestrian zone. All four of us loved what we ate at authentic places and no one suffered any gastric issues. The Joint does have live music, but it is expensive and is cash only. Cash only is very common there, so be prepared. This place is very close to the south end park, which is a gorgeous place to be for sunrise or sunset. After walking around the north end and grabbing some yummy street food/desserts, head back to the apartment and relax under the stars on the third floor terrace. Afterwards enjoy a restful nights sleep on the wonderfully comfy beds. I’m sensitive to bad beds, and I slept like a baby with no aches or pains. Communication with Delia was prompt, pleasant, and easy. The one surprise was not having a dryer with the washer.

This place is heavenly!
Located on the south end of the Island which is the quiet end. So peaceful! Amazing views from every terrace. Located directly above Garrafon De Castillo which had incredible snorkeling! A small entry fee to get in but well worth it. You can bring your own gear or rent from them as well. Within walking distance to multiple restaurants and a great little convenience store just half a block away. Also a short walk to Punta Sur which is a must do while on the Island. Can’t recommend this rental highly enough! We all loved it and had the most wonderful stay. Delia was absolutely amazing and helped arrange transportation and golf cart rental. We will definitely be back and will be staying at Sotavento for sure! Thank you Delia and Oscar for the outstanding customer service. You can tell they really do care about their guests. You will be blessed by staying here!!

Perfect Getaway!
Just stayed for 3 nights, but it was a great place and location. Very walkable or you could rent a golf cart. We rented a golf car for one day and walked the rest or took taxis to the other side for about 150 pesos. You should note that the coffee machine takes the Nestle pods and you’ll have to get more:) great iced coffee and gelato at Marakame within walking, great wings and live music next door at The Joint and we also strolled over to Denuccio’s for an amazing Italian dinner! If you are looking to watch sports take a taxi to Snappers (old Nash’s) and then get a churro from a street cart after! Fresh juices from Aroma Isla are also a must! Can’t wait to be back! Thank you
