It was a last minute decision to travel someplace warm for Christmas. Our travel agent (thanks Sue) recommended the El Dorado Royal, a 5 star, adult, gourmet, inclusive resort in Mexico. As others mention, the resort is well maintained, covers 450 acres and is a perfect spot to get-away for any reason! I'll start with the rooms - we were... More

We stayed at the El Dorado Royale for 5 nights the first week of May for my boyfriend's brother's destination wedding. We of course did not pick the hotel as it was selected by the Bridal couple but we were not disappointed! The room was nice and well kept and we were very happy with our location in one of... More

My husband and I stayed for a week at the El Dorado Royale on the Villas side. The resort itself is beautifully maintained and a good size. It's large enough that golf carts come around regularly to drive you around yet it is small enough that you can walk every where with out any problem. All the pools were very... More

We have been vacationing at the El Dorado Royale Resort and Spa since 2007 when we went at the recommendation of friends. We loved the resort and its amenities; especially the gourmet inclusive concept. No lines at buffets! The food is truly excellent. Since our first visit, we have been back in 2009, 2010 and 2011, these last three times... More

Never had a problem with the premium 'up-sell' - the food, drinks, service, etc. included in the 'Gourmet Inclusive' package were wonderful as-is. I think you have to pay extra for a private lobster dinner, etc. but with so many (excellent) restaurant options on the resort, we didn't see the need. We stayed at a resort in Cancun before heading... More

My wife and I flew from Gatwick for a 2 week break from 12-26 Dec 11. I am sure that you are aware that the resort is Adults Only and had a healthy mix of British, European, Canadian and American guests. On arrival we checked in and were shown to our room. The room was dated and not in the... More

The resort is part of the Charisma Hotel & Spa resorts group and I can only describe the whole experience as outstanding with a total quality feel to the properties, especially the Casitas which definitely have a more exclusive look externally and on their interior. The staff upon arrival at the impressive foyer were very well dressed, friendly and helpful,... More

one of my most memorable and favorite so far -- of course, being in Mexico you still need to watch out for hidden costs and fees; however, the place was immaculate, the staff is ready to help and go above and beyond their jobs to make sure you are accommodated. The food took me by surprise as it was phenomenal,,,and... More

We only stayed at the resort for three days so take that into account when reading this as you may work out the quirks and enjoy a longer stay. The resort is lovely, simply beautiful. The grounds, pathways and beach are all fantastic. There are too many pools to count all with bars. You can take a bike for the... More

Resort: The resort grounds are visually stunning and well kept, infrastructure is good, communication OK. Showstopper!!!! : You must pay for ANY internet access, wifi or tethered - 6 bucks a day for the lobby and 15 for your room... and it's flakey to boot. Most others I spoke with just used it for a day and gave up... a... More
