We just returned from the El Dorado Royale in the Mayan Riviera. We travel a couple times a year to various countries. We have stayed at the following all-inclusive chains Iberostar, Paradisus, Palladium, Bahia Principe, NH, Majestic, Catalonia, Barcelo. This was our first time at a Karisma Resort. The negative: The rooms are dated. For those who like water sports,... More

There is so much i want to say about this resort so am going to split it up into positives, negatives and top tips ...... More

We stayed at the El Dorado Royale from 12 to 27 January 2012 and had a very good time. Like other comments there were good and bad points and depending upon your priorities this could make or spoil your holiday. All in all we had a great time but best way to describe is first the good: Fantastic food Great... More

We were here Xmas 2011. This place was probably really nice when it was new, but now it needs a lot of updating. The cloth canopy on our bed were dirty and torn, and the metal part of the bed was rusted. The food was horrible and the beach was dirty (lots of sea weed all over the place) and... More

Visited the El Dorado Royal in May which one of the very few hotels that I have not seen. I love the massive amount of water ways that lead to the the main pool, had a chance to see the entire hotel and taste some food....all I can say is top shelf. If you want a really nice room check... More

Let me start by saying that the resort is beautiful. The service staff is exceptional. We met some very nice people and had a great time. The food was outstanding. As with any resort there are things that do not measure up to your expectations. Our biggest and most serious problem was the front desk staff. My husband and I... More

We accepted an upgrade from the small, intimate El Dorado Seaside Suites for the final six days of our holiday. We thought it might be an opportunity to see another location. First impressions were poor, but things improved significantly and although there is more space here devoted to problems, I honestly believe you can have a fantastic holiday at the... More

Ok, maybe it's not a secret but it seems to be. If you want to get away from the main pools there is a really nice pool with swim up bar on the other side of La Isla. By "other side" I mean, opposite the main pool side. Look closely because it's sort of tucked away and hidden. Actually don't... More
