Not all Salvia condos are equal
Submitted: November 1, 2010

Our condo was perfect, with granite countertops, flat stove top, and everything you would need to cook a full meal and a full sized stainless steel refrigerator that dispensed bottled water. The room has two queen size pillow top beds with foam toppers for a heavenly night sleep. Flat screen TV, Ipod station/alarm, extra pillows and an air conditioner that blows ice cold. The view of the beach and ocean are amazing, comfortable lounge chairs on the balcony with extra tables in the closet. Plenty of hangers and space in the closet too, a shoe rack at the front door, large modern ceiling fan w/light, the whole condo had tons of recessed lighting. Great art work and its decorated perfectly.
All we needed to provide was our food and drink and paper towels. Liz Beth comes in and does the dishes, cleans thoroughly and puts fresh towels, hand soap for the bathroom sink, new bath soap and toilet paper. Also, the elevators were clean and fast, no waiting around.
The condo is near everything. The Salvia is dated and not much to look at from the outside, but that didn’t bother us since it was always clean. There is always a guard at the front gate so you feel like you were secure all the time although I never felt unsafe anywhere in Cancun.
There is a pool, we didn’t use it but it was clean and always full. Rosa, gives massages at the Salvia and is amazing. We paid her $40 for an hour and my boyfriend couldn’t even speak when she was done.
Our condo was perfect in every way and super comfortable; There is noise from the forum at night and it can get pretty loud but in our condo, all you had to do was close the door in the hall that was between the two condos in that section and the sound would deaden, also, you could only really hear the music when you went into the bathroom. Once you got out into the room where the beds and the kitchen were, all you heard was the ocean or the TV. It was quite wonderful being able to hear the ocean while you slept.
I loved it and it’s the only place I would stay while in Cancun. Not to mention the only place I would stay in the Salvia, we peaked in a few rooms while they were being cleaned and they all seemed pretty dated. We had the best condo.
