This resort was amazing and I’m so glad I booked here. We stayed in the junior suite rooftop and it was perfect. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. They cleaned the room everyday and made sure the fridge was always stocked. The whole resort was beautiful and all the staff was amazing. Our concierge Miguel Garrido was absolutely the best ever and did an absolutely amazing job making sure everything they was good and that we were taking care of. He booked everything for us and we didn’t have to worry about a thing…. Would definitely recommend and will be going back myself again.

The rooms are very dated and the level of hygiene was consistently poor. It felt neglected and poorly maintained. • Lack of Amenities: Basic essentials were missing. There was no hand soap or hair conditioner in the bathroom. Furthermore, the Wi-Fi/Internet was very weak and unreliable throughout the stay. • Service & Efficiency: While the staff were polite and friendly, their work pace was incredibly slow. We were a group of four, yet housekeeping constantly left only one or two towels. We had to repeatedly ask for basic necessities like towels and bottled water. Be prepared to pay extra for almost everything. Activities like bowling and arcade games require additional payment. Also, the on-site shops are extremely overpriced, even by resort standards. The Positives: • The staff members are kind-hearted and well-mannered, but the management seems to lack the systems to provide efficient 5-star service.

We recently stayed at Ocean El Faro and had a mixed experience. The rooms were clean, but there was a very strong humidity smell that was hard to ignore. The bathroom design is also inconvenient — if water from the bathtub reaches the floor, there is no proper drain. Check-in was poorly coordinated. We had four rooms reserved together, yet each was placed in a different building. My room was assigned to an adults-only area near the pool with constant loud music, which was not expected. The process took nearly three hours. It would greatly improve the experience if the resort contacted guests before arrival to confirm preferences. Dining was inconsistent. Blue Moon was good (around 80%), and the steakhouse was decent (about 70%). The Italian restaurant did not feel authentic, and the Japanese restaurant was disappointing. The buffet offers many choices, but quality does not match the variety. The coffee shop is great, but often understaffed, causing long lines. Alcohol selection was also below expectations unless premium brands were specifically requested. The beach and activities are enjoyable, but better organization and staffing would significantly improve the overall experience.
