11/20/09 Needless to say, our experience at the Girasol complex was truly unforgettable! All of us had a great time with the amazing view, friendly staff and unbelievable location. There is NO better location if you are looking for nightlife and entertainment. I think we were the envy of many people we met due to our privacy, location and spacious abode.

I highly recommend this place while staying in Cancun! Without doubt, if we return to Cancun sometime soon, we know where to stay!

7/20/09 Apologies for the late reply - after Cancun we spent 10 days in Playa Del Carmen and Cozumel so only getting through my work emails now! We would like to thank you so much for making our holiday - your condo is amazing, so homey and a fantastic location. We loved spending time there and it was the highlight of our holiday - thank you so much!!!

5/1/09 We had a great time despite the flu scare. We didn't really notice/hear much until the day before we were leaving...

The condo was great for us and we liked that there weren't too many US tourists there, mostly Mexicans. Sergio hooked us up with a driver to Chichen Itza - it was a good time and the driver was very professional and reliable. Jorge from the restuarant connected us with a parasailer. That was great. The Cuban restaurant nearby was excellent. The food was the best than any place we went (even Lorenzillos and 1000% better than Rain Forest Cafe for the same price). Mextreme was good for drinks.

Anyway, thanks so much!

CANCUN TRIP 2009
BEST OF FRIENDS, BEST TIME OF OUR LIVES!!
Our trip to Cancun this year was one we will all never forget thanks to the Adams Family! We rented out Penthouse four at the Girasol which was located right on the strip downtown in the middle of all the action. The condo was perfect for our group. Clean, comfortable and beautiful!

We enjoyed every second of our time staying there and we will be back! The breathtaking ocean views and the amenities our condo had made us all feel right at home!

One of the concerns we all had going down to Mexico was that of the whole safety issue. All of us were coming from the U.S. and all we had heard was how dangerous everything was down there. We were wrong. At no time were we at any danger while we were at the Girasol or in Cancun for that matter. This was really amazing because it made for a really memorable vacation despite the conflict portrayed in the media.

On behalf of our whole group we just want to thank Teresa for all her hard work and wonderful hospitality she showed us from day one. Thank you Teresa for making this trip possible for us!! We will all never forget spring break 2009!:} We will be Back!!!:}
BEST REGARDS,

Thanks so much!!!

3/20/09 My friends and I loved staying at the Girasol! The penthouse was very large and definitely accommodated our large number of people very well; perfect for what we needed. The beach was wonderful and we felt very lucky because it seemed that many beaches in that area were mostly rocks. As far as location: could not ask for better! We were thrilled that EVERYTHING worth going to was a 5minute walk or less w/ the exception of a couple clubs that were maybe ten. The condo was very laid back and the food and rather large drinks downstairs by the pool were very cheap and very good. Overall, all of us were very happy with our choice and would definitely do it again and recommend it to others. Anda Pascu
1/6/09 I just wanted to send you a note of thanks based on our trip to Cancun. The condo was exactly as described and there were absolutely no surprises - something that I really value when I travel. Everyone in the entire party, including the groom to be, were very happy with the condo and that only made the trip better.

Most of all I appreciate the level of professionalism and personal attention you provided in leading up to the trip. I'll be certain to recommend you to any of my friends or family looking to travel to Cancun.

8-12-08 Fun, Relaxing time. Beware = Booze Cruise, waste of dollars. Not very boozie! Co Co Bongo on Saturday night = too many locals and too crowded! Almost dangerous! Our 3rd year to stay… we keep coming back! Great location with teen aged kids! We’re a close family and the Girasol seems to make us even closer! The Smiths
4-10-08 Had a wonderful and relaxing stay with our family. Really enjoyed the breeze and waves as well as the great view. Swimming was great too. We visited Chichen Itza, Tulum & Xel Ha. All 3 were well worth the time. Rent a car and go on your own to Tulum & Xel Ha. Try to get to Xel Ha before lunch to enhoy the full day there. Bring sun hats to visit the ruins! El Pescador in town was very nice and good prices. El Mortero just up the road was great for Mexican food. Argentine Steak House was excellent! HAVE FUN! The Watson Family
1-06-08 We stayed here Nov. 21-27. Your penthouse is beautiful. Cancun is beautiful. We had such a good time here. We defiantly are coming back. We loved just sitting outside watching the waves roll in. We also traveled to Chichen Itza. That place is so amazing. We recommend going there to everyone. We also loved just walking around and shopping. Thank you for providing this beautiful condo for us to stay in. The Ramirez Family The Ramirez Family
1/3/08 Our group had such a great time at the condo. The Weese's condos are the most cared for in the whole complex. They are decorated and painted very nicely with plenty of room and beds. The views from the balconies of the downtown area and the ocean are amazing and the location is the best in Cancun. The Condos are located right on the beach with pools downstairs and every important bar/club in the city is within walking distance. This is a big deal because nighttime traffic is awful and our group never had to worry about leaving early to go out at night.

I also cannot sing Mike and Janet's praises loud enough. We had a little accident at the condo and their support got everything taken care of very easily. Mike and Janet got back to us and answered every question we had in a timely manner throughout planning the trip and even when we there. They were a pleasure to deal with and I would definitely recommend their places to anyone who is visiting Cancun.

11/19/07 I just wanted to thank you once again for the condo rental in Cancun. The condo was great and was actually what we were looking for. Everyone from the trip loved everything and it was a great week in Cancun. I was actually surprised how close we were to all the action. Thanks so much. Reginald Nazaire, Mass
8/24/07 We had a great time at your place and you location is fabulous. I had to leave on Friday because of work and the rest of my party left on Saturday. I spoke to them and everything was in good order when they checked out. Again I appreciate your hospitality and I will certainly recommend your condo in the future. Jeff Browning
09/07/07 Our group rented Penthouses #9 & two other units the week of May 27th, 2007. We really had a great week. The weather was terrific -- really wasn't too hot until the day we left. We absolutely loved the view from our units and the location was everything!!! Our kids (aged 18-24 were able to walk to just about everywhere they wanted to go). The beach and water were just gorgeous. We were able to get out and SCUBA and snorkel a few days and really enjoyed it. We rented a beach umbrella and enjoyed being served drinks down on the beach. We also ate (and drank) at the restaurant and thought the food was good and very reasonable. Everyone was great! The elevator worked fine – it was just down the day we got there for about ½ hour or so for a service check. It was disappointing waking up without seeing the ocean this morning, but we had to get back to reality some time. Thanks again to the owners, Mike and Janet, for all the help in getting me info, hooking me up with transportation, etc. We hope to be returning soon!

08/30/07 Our Stay in PH4
Tue, 28 Aug 2007
Greetings,

After a great long vacation at Girasol my parents have returned back home, returned to work as of Monday and I'm just getting the opportunity to breath a little.

We all agreed that your place was perfect and had all the necessary tools for a great trip. We also took good care of the place. Hopefully we can return to Cancun again in the future and we will absolutely consider Girasol again. During our stay you provided a binder that included information about the facility and policy on reimbursement, which was very helpful.

As you know, we had to leave PH4 due to Hurricane Dean and Lucy and her crew removed sliding glass doors, windows, and furniture from the apartment. I was wondering if we meet your policy for reimbursement for the two nights we had to go somewhere else. In turn, we stayed at Carrillo's hotel for 2 nights (paying double). Please let me know what you think.

Best regards,
Andrea Rossato

REPLY: Absolutely Andrea.
It prorates out to $162.50 per night. We've sent a check to you for the $325 plus your $200 deposit, a total of $525. I'm glad all were safe during the Hurricane and look forward to serving you or your friends again in the future.

Thanks.

 Mike and Janet, It was awesome! The weather was great. We did not want to come home. Thanks to Teresa, we did receive all our clothes in time. It was extremely kind of her to do that for complete strangers. We were very grateful. Our
boys had met Brittany at the pool so it was cool to find out she was your granddaughter. The staff....I can’t say enough good things about them. They were the best. George saw to it that we had a great time. Him and my dad hit it off right away. We are definitely planning on a return trip. Thank you for renting your penthouse to us! I hope we left everything the way we were supposed to. I do owe you for two pairs of goggles because I didn't realize they were in my beach bag until we returned home. Please let me know the cost, Sorry!  All of your suggestions and travel tips were very helpful. The location of your condo was so convenient. Thank you so much!

 Hi, Mike-
My husband, Patrick, and I had a GREAT time! Everyone was super nice.
Patrick was actually going to drop you guys a line to let you know how much we appreciated all your tips & how much we enjoyed you sharing your home with us. We hung out at Market 28 quite a bit eating at Margelys and enjoying a more authentic taste of Mexico. My husband lived in San Miguel de Allende for a while growing up and we both like to have a more cultural experience when we travel. We honeymooned in Cancun 15 years ago and boy has it changed. We also appreciated your recommendation of Sorianos as an alternative to Wal-Mart. The Cineopolis was closed for construction....so we will have to go there on our next visit. We would like to get back there more often. We love Mexico & Belize! Thanks for checking in & thanks again for everything. Oh, and I did set up the final cleaning with Lucy on Sunday, so the place should be shining for your next arrival. :) Thanks again, Kit

My wife and I stayed in Unit 612-2 from Jan 25 - Feb 1, 2007, along with our 3 kids aged 9, 5, and 1. We had a great time. The weather, pool, beach, and location were all great. Aside from pool and beach days, we also found time to make it into Cancun City (on the local bus), Crococun Park, Wet N Wild, the Interactive Aquarium, and a bunch of local restaurants - the kids thought Senor Frog's was insane, and they were right. They were all a big hit. Girasol staff was all very friendly and helpful. It was also nice to have the option of eating nearby vs having to take a cab or bus to a restaurant further away. The OXXO a few doors down kept us well-stocked with food and cold cerveza. All in all, a great vacation. The 9-year-old would have stayed another month, the 5-year-old was played out (had fun but was ready to go home), and the little one just went with the flow and smiled a lot. Don't forget to bring a portable crib if you have really small kids. We hope to be back, maybe in one of the penthouses as the kids get older.

 Girasol Cancun has been wonderful for me and friends as vacation accommodations in January 2 years in a row, and WILL do it again!! Hurricane Wilma still has lasting effects at Girasol and the entire area, but can't think of better place to spend my vaca money, and money stretches just fine there. Girasol is close to Ruins El Ray(real kings ruin w/iguanas included, only $3.50 American, Isla Mujearas (I snorkeld alot), Market 28(too much fun), Bubba Gump's seafood restaurant, Harley Shop that was advertised in America as bike shop???but has a BAR(funny)did buy my ol man a t-shirt there, and more and more. Girasol staff Serghao and son Sergio, Manuel, Lucy, Pablo and more are so accommodating and reliable, relaxing enough that even I trust them, and even though I speak pig Spanish they like even me.. If I had the $$ I would so live at Girasol Cancun.

 Our spring break group of approximately 25 people stayed at the Girasol. Staying there was the best decision we made all break. It really is about all about the warm hospitality from Mike & Janet and the perfect loci. It was a home away from home. Couldn't have asked for a better place with a better price for college student vacationers!

 I stayed at the Girasol (PH9) from 20 May until 27 May. The Girasol has an excellent location, for walking around the "party center". When we happened to be there, the Girasol, was very low on tenants, so, we sort of had the place to ourselves (there was maybe 2 or 3 other units w/ people in it, from what I can see).
The PH9 was nice. Everything you could need was in there. I'd stay there again........Dave

Our family just returned from staying in one of Mike's condo's from 7/8/05 to 7/15/05. The location is excellent, just minutes from Senior Frogs, and the center of activities in Cancun. Nice beaches with the best views of Cancun. Mike is a concerned and gracious owner who sincerely wants his guests to have a great time! While the building is older, Mike's condos are excellent, nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Our family of 6, including 2 older children ages 21 and 19 had a great time. The older kids "hit the clubs" at night and were within 5 minutes walking distance. The condo accomendated our family quite nicely. My strongest reccomendation is for Mike and the personal service he imparts. He is a genuine and honest condo owner deeply concerned about the well-being of his guests!
