Amazing view, pool and snorkeling-on-site!
I'm taking time to write a review because the reviews of others have helped me plan trips and avoid problems....giving back. Thanks.
- Stayed two weeks.
- pictures of the place are accurate, there are cool steps down to the ocean and 10' dive platform from the pool deck!!!
- 201 is great because it's at ground level on the street side, but one floor above the pool so you have a great view of the ocean, Cancun in the distance, cruise ships coming and going, but also the pool area.
- Snorkling is excellent in this area. We snorkeled many various places on the island and even took a snorkel boat out on three locations...the snorkeling at the condo area is as-good- or better than you'll find. We would walk 10 minutes down to the Marina and climb down the wall but the fenced gas tank (next to the castle pool). The current takes you down to Miramar (usually).
- Maid service every other day was excellent quality
- property managers are effective and helpful.
- staff keeps the grounds very clean and organized. PRISTINE.
RECOMMENDATIONS for your trip:
- we rented a scooter for $20/day (250pesos). Started with a week rental and kept the whole time. Very convent to get around. Yes, I suppose this isn't for everyone.....but its annoying to read that "they are dangerous and you'll put your eye out"
- EAST side beach is a must visit. Also had someone say its "dangerous to swim over there!"...THATS BULL. Again, it's not for everyone and I sure would be choosy on the where and what day, but there were many days it's about like the Pacific with the normal undertow. And many places are sharp coral so are not desirable....but some sand beaches can be found.
- Corona Beach - is a good place .
