Property was not accurately describes on Airbnb. Hot tub did not work. Appliances did not work. Penthouse was dirty. Shower leaked. Amenities were ok. Pool was clean the property hot tub was green and smelled due to overload of kids. Small beach with piles of seaweed with odor. The locals sit in front of the small hotel beach all day and night.

It is unfortunate to hear your stay at The Elements was not enjoyable and failed to meet the standards it should have. It is important to note that The Elements is managed by various property management companies that are responsible for the maintenance and customer care. lt is our hope that you will not let your last experience keep you from a future outstanding Playa del Carmen vacation. By choosing a reputable company like Bric Vacation Rentals, recognized as one of the leading hospitality companies at The Elements and throughout the city, you can be assured a stay that exceeds all of your expectations.

Hotel's Favorite
For the renter Playa can be challenging. The beaches are all public, no umbrellas, no chairs...nothing only the beautiful sea and fine sand. If not staying at a sea side, luxury hotel, the walk from your condo to the beach lugging chairs, umbrellas ect can present an inconvenience. If reluctant to bring your own the options are paying a daily fee to a beach club or renting from locals on beach. The beach clubs provide all you will need, food, comfort and facilities but at a price, also they tend to be noisy with loud, thumping, incessant "music". So you find yourself on a lovely beach with decisions to make every day...can be a hassle! Staying at THE ELEMENTS eliminates all of the above. It has its OWN PRIVATE BEACH, the only condo complex in Playa with this luxury. It has a beautiful extra large pool with showers and a Jacuzzi tub. The complex is configured so that everyone has direct ocean frontage from the large decks, in fact in my condo you could hear the sound of the surf...fantastic!!!The units are spacious with 21/2 baths, gigantic showers and plenty of closet space. This was the best condo that I have ever seen,and I travel often. When renting premium properties one expects amenities..air, large screen TVs, stainless ect. However, the defining quality is service. The Elements has a virtual army of people to groom the grounds..always, every day. The maid, Mari, was gracious and pleasant, amazing as we speak no Spanish and she no English but it worked with a smile. Miguel, the 'manager' was fantastic..always. Speaks perfect English, always available for anything or everything...yes is the first word out of his mouth...toaster broken?one hour Miguel delivers a new one...trouble getting US TV channels phone in minutes...set up computer, cell phone ect..done...restaurant or travel info..pick up the phone..and wait for knock on door..my wife wanted her nails done...Miguel has someone..I needed a barber...done! Message on beach done....get the picture? And I must say the everyone at complex was gracious..always. Luxury and amenities come with a price. The 2 bed condos are expensive but they can easily accomodate 6..the two floor penthouses are gigantic, complete with private roof top jacuzzi, but can easily sleep 8 or more with kids. If you want a memorable vaca and are willing to pay extra , but not that much extra, this is the place to bask in the sea, sun and go to a private beach with a private bar and a private message tent.…

Fabulous Family Vacation! I recently booked a surprise family trip through Brick management at the Elements Condo property in Playa De Carmen, Mexico. The booking was easy through the Brick website. The management was responsive, answering all of my questions in both phone and emails. I got a great price on the accommodations and airport transportation when I booked over the phone. The Elements complex and our unit was the perfect condo for our adult family trip. I selected unit #124 at the Elements Property. The condo was beautiful, we had a great ocean view, a spacious layout, stylish furnishings, comfortable beds, and lovely linens. The best was the gorgeous patio and ocean views. Miguel from Brick was so helpful he acted as a concierge giving us constant recommendations. I would highly recommend booking with Brick the experience did not disappoint. I can't wait to go back! We all had a great time and loved the location, service, beaches, and amazing food. Thanks, HB…

Absolutely loved everything about the Elements. We had the 4 bedroom penthouse with an amazing view from both floors of the condo. We booked through BRIC...and the entire experience was top notch. The communication prior to and during our visit was just great. As we took trips to Tulum, cenotes, etc... we couldn't wait to get back to the property to enjoy what it offered. Miguel...the ambassador was just excellent...for all of our needs and was available all day long.

We had really nice experience at the Elements condo. The apartment is very beautiful, service was great and perfect location, just few minutes walking to the shops and restaurants. The beach was perfect too, very little or no seaweed for nine days that we were there.
