Nice narrow property! Had all the amenities we wanted. First family trip and kids had a lot of fun on lazy River (bring your own tubes and bring a mini electric air pump). My 6 and 12 yr old went to daisy club and really enjoyed it. 6 yr old asked to go the next morning. Entertainment staff were good about keeping everyone engaged. The pool chair game is real! We had 6 people and saved 4 chairs knowing we all wouldn’t be sitting in them all day and another day we just put our stuff on one chair as we knew we all would be in the pool all day. It’s infuriating when guests save all these chairs and don’t use them. Be prepared to set your alarm for 7:45 to put your towels out. Unlike other posts I read I felt the beach wasn’t as rocky as others posted. We couldn’t swim but we jumped the waves almost everyday -our family loved it. I would compare to the beach of puerto Vallarta-not the pristine color nor nice sand of cancun. It was part of my families first time out of the country -this was perfect 1st experience for them. Easy airport, transportation sticking to the directions in the email. The resort was on the smaller side-we didn’t have issues getting into all the restaurants in the 5 nights we were there via the app. Went in at 7:55am to see Availability. Twice we weren’t able to get in until 8 and 830 but that was ok we just ate a late afternoon burger/fries and actually it made getting to the evening shows easier for the littles. We felt very safe.

The property was generally adequate for our stay, though it didn’t meet the expectations of a 5-star experience. One issue we encountered was our suite bathroom—it lacked a fan or any form of ventilation, which caused the room to feel damp and led to an unpleasant smell. Additionally, the beach itself has a rocky entry, which can make it difficult and painful to find your footing when hit by waves. In terms of staff and service, it was a mixed experience. We encountered some team members who were incredibly friendly and helpful, but others were not, which affected the consistency of our stay. If you’re planning to enjoy the lazy river, be aware that the resort has a limited number of tubes available. Considering bringing your own or you will likely need to purchase one at the gift shop for $15 USD, as the few available tubes are often in high demand and can be monopolized by guests for extended periods. We didn’t have high expectations for the food, but unfortunately, it didn’t meet our basic standards. The quality left much to be desired, and we were disappointed by the lack of flavor. We wish there were more snack takeaway options, particularly for enjoying snacks on the beach. While there were some positives during our visit, there were several aspects of the property and service that could be improved for a more consistent, enjoyable experience and why we are rating this average.

We had a great time during our November stay at Ocean El Faro! The property is well maintained, there are several pools at the hotel offering guests to an option to choose between entertainment and quiet pool time. Service was great, everyone made sure we had a pleasant time. A big thank you to Johanser for helping us with dinner reservations throughout our stay - he’s been very quick to respond and made our stay even more convenient. The rooms were very clean and spacious. They were a little musty, which is the only constructive feedback we have. Overall a great trip!

Resort was average. The property spelt like mold in the common areas and rooms. Food was very low Quality, no snacks or food in pool area resulting in having to take long walks to buffet or one burger stand. Bars don’t open until 10am. Towel service and pool didn’t open until 9am and would close at 6pm, very limited. Beach is very rocky, you could barely take a swim without hitting rocks.
