We loved the place is very nice marble floors,nice areas, the pool and gardens are very big for the amount of units, this is what i consider a high end condo hotel , the suites are big and tastefully decorated, we didnt used the beach at the reef club, the front desk staff at paseo gave us directions and a discount card for drinks to use at the corto maltes beach club another ocean front property administrated by encanto resorts, the beach there was amazing and right in the middle of the 5th avenue the center of playa del carmen, we are going back next month, we are looking into buying a condo at el faro a beach front property located beside Corto maltes its almost finish and is administrated by the same group, we are seriously looking into buying, it seems that area is full of renters and charm, Encanto Resorts was a great surpise, the concept i described as high end condo vacations in the heart of a booming playa del carmen.

My family stayed in the condo Coral 204 March 7-14, 2008. My husband, myself and our 3 children (all in their early twenties) including my daughters fiancee. We were very impressed with the decor, nice marble floors, very nice bathrooms, nice balcony and a very nice kitchen that had everything. We did cook a few dinners and usually ate breakfast in the condo. The front desk staff was very kind but did not speak english except for one man that worked during the day. I do feel that there should be someone who speaks english available 24 hours a day at the reception desk. The pool was great and the grounds were nicely kept. We did spend most of our time at the beach, but did spend early mornings or end of the days at the pool. On Wednesday evening, the complex hosted a dinner which included free drinks and food from 6-8pm. It included a Mariachi Band and a flame dancer and music. Very nice gesture! We did use the Reef Club across the street. We bought the all-inclusive plan for one day. For $40 per person it included breakfast and lunch and all drinks or Dinner and drinks until Midnight and the snack bars. The food was okay, the beach was nice so we had a fun day. You can use the Reef Club even if you do not purchase the wrist band, but you can't buy a drink! The things that were dissappointing to us were: Lack of hot water. We never had hot water in the kitchen, we had to space our showers apart in order to get hot water (early morning or late evening) there was a nice jacuzzi tub in the bathroom that we could not use because there was not enough hot water to fill it up above the jets. The furniture in the Living room was not very comfortable, we didn't use it much execept that we had one son who slept on the sofa each night. The complex could use a soda machine on the grounds, town is a good 15 minute walk which was okay except we always needed 2 taxis to take all 6 of us each time (we took alot of taxis even though we did do the walk alot!) We made alot of trips to town! The condos do not have phones and our cell phones did not work in Playa. It would be nice to be able make a reservation from the condo or call the front desk as needed but communication would be an issue. All in all it is a very nice family friendly, affordable option.

A group of us we down in Playa del Carmen for a week over New Years. We stayed at the Paseo del Sol Condos. We had 3 units. 2 out of the 3 were great. They were 2 bedroom units in the Reef building, 106 and 306. They were very nice. It seemed the unit 106 was used quite a bit by the owners because it had the extras and was great. We had a roof top unit 305 and was not the best. Also the 3rd floor units offer a roof top patio and we really did not use it as much as we thought we would. There was a leak in our side of the buildings roof. The smell of mold and mildew was so bad we did not even use that room and kept the door shut. We just got back and I will be contacting the rental company and see what they do.
The pool was nice and the rest of the property was as well. The Coral building facing the pool looked like it had some nice units.
As for the VIP cards available to us for The Reef club resort across the street was a project. They only have so many cards to use and the Reef club only allows so many extra people in. We were denied entry 2 times. I will put a small review on the Reef club in as well. I would go back to Paseo del Sol again, but would be more careful of how I chose my unit.

We loved this place, is located between the golf course and the turquoise caribbean beach in the beutifull gated comunity of playacar, the rooms are big and tastefully decorated, we love the pool and the gardens wich includes a cenote inside the property! the property staff are friendly and always trying to make you feel at home. totally recomendable!
