Vacation here with my family and I have nothing but good things to say about this place. The staff, the service and the location was wonderful. If it wasn't for the sargasm, which we understand it would have been even better however there are other options for swimming. But we would definitely stay here again the location is amazing you can literally walk a few blocks to go shopping, have dinner and be in the night Life but can still come back to a quiet room.

It was our first trip to Cancun. I was not sure between the all inclusive and regular hotel. Finally We decided to go with El taj. So glad that we did. Such a clean and nice condo hotel. We had ocean view with a private spa in the balcony. The hotel was even better than the pictures. My 2 teenagers loved it. The location is perfect. Close to the fifth st which is live all night with cute shops. I have recommended this hotel to all my friends and families. We will come back again next year

Our family of 5 had a great time. The property was gorgeous and the staff was friendly and helpful. Loved the pools and the jacuzzi. It was very close to the main drag where there were shops and restaurants. Mamitas beach was just a 10-15 walk away. We’re definitely coming back.

The pools on both Beachside and Oceanfront were clean and comfortable, with beautiful water features. Some of the jets in the jacuzzi weren’t operable and the elevator had us trapped for a solid 10 minutes with no one to hear us yell for help not did the alarm didn’t work. Luckily the door eventually opened on its own. The condo itself was perfect: comfortable, fully loaded, spacious. I would come back but I definitely wouldn’t risk the elevator again
