We stayed at the Girasol for 11 nights which we booked thru "great rentals" website, property 218270 which is a private owned studio. We were very disappointed with a couple of issues. First, there was only 1 bath towel each during our entire stay, no hand or face cloth or dish rag or tea towel in the unit even though... more

The Garisol does have a great view but the front desk people will rip you off. I was there on 2/15 and my friend had paid for our room in advance, the guy at the front desk tried to scam me for 900 pesos for a room that had already been purchaced. NOT COOL. In this economy while tourism is... more

The property is one of the oldest in Cancun but all the basic services were there like hot water, fresh clean towels, friendly service and the best location on the beach! There is a 24 hour OXXO (Mexican convenience store chain) 50 yards from the entrance to the hotel and a pharmacy right next to it. The rooms are very... more

I did a lot of homework (and read hundreds of reviews!) before choosing the condo for our vacation. I found out that every condo in this building is owned by a different person, and that some units are kept up, while others aren't so much. We ended up choosing penthouse #4, and we were SO GLAD we did! Our condo... more

My mother and I stayed here for a week in September last year and it was ok. The location was superb and the views from our window simply breathtaking but... the place is pretty run down. Our room was full of ants because the kitchenette area had not been cleaned properly. We spend the first day scrubbing the place. All... more

This hotel is very conveniently located on the beach with spectacular views and the staff is friendly however...there was no lightbulb over the vanity and none available. The shower leaked all over the bathroom floor. The room was clean enough however it was dark with only two lights on the far end of the room and only one elevator worked... more

As there is no logo on the front of the building, you can only recognize Girasol by the charisma emanating from within. The positives: First, although Hurricane-force winds around the beach might threaten a normal human-engineered structure, Girasol is undaunted because it is a hollow shell. If you leave your patio and front doors open simultaneously, you will witness unparalleled... more

I stayed at the Girasol from the 16th-23rd of January.I was a bit apprehensive at first because few people had been there(in comparison to the bigger hotels) or even heard of it. We were checked in straight away and shown to our room,I desperately wanted the ocean room view that I heard was fantastic from this hotel.When I opened the... more

The Girasol may not be the Ritz (as people have reported), but it certainly has some nice qualities. It has the best beach we have found. The ocean views were amazing from the balcony and room, and the location is really good. It's right next to the night clubs of Carlos and Charlies, Senor Frogs, shopping, dining and lots more... more
