My husband and I stayed at the Royale for our honeymoon during the second week of September. Everything was perfect! We were in an Ocean front Jr. suit and it was beautiful. Room service 24 hr, delicious restaurants, immaculate grounds, spotlessly clean rooms,friendly service and wonderful weather. The Casita area was beautiful, but we enjoyed the same restaurants, grounds, pools... more

My husband and I just returned from our honeymoon at the El Dorado Royale in Riviera Maya, Mexico. We stayed from Oct. 5-9 and everything was fabulous. The staff are very courteous and friendly. From the gardeners to the trolley drivers to the servers- everyone greeted us and worked to make sure the stay was excellent. The grounds were very... more

It was my husbands and my 31st anniversary, and we could not have asked for a nicer place to stay. Let me say first that we stayed in a jr. swim up suite. I thought it was beautiful. The resort was only 40% occupied, so the pools were not crouded, we got into every resturaunt without waiting. We had two... more

Read all the reviews and hints trip advisor has to offer before you go. It helped us plan ahead immensely and we learned a ton of secrets (how to make advance reservations, how to get what you need quickly, the best times for reservations at certain restaurants, how to make it if you don't book a casita.) Our favorite restaurant... more

This hotel is the perfect location for a destination wedding! It is beautifully landscaped and there is great detail in the architecture. The best part is that it is so big that after the wedding, the couple doesn't have to see the rest of the guests and can begin their honeymoon! more

My husband and I stayed at the El Dorado Royale for our honeymoon and enjoyed our stay immensely. An all-inclusive resort is the perfect place for a honeymoon because you don't have to worry or think about anything, which was so nice after months of budgeting and planning for a wedding. Our favorite part of everyday was breakfast. Breakfast at... more

We stayed at the El Dorado Royale for the last two weeks of September. It was our 30th Wedding anniversary so having read all the spiel about the hotel our expectations were high. I booked an Ocean View room, took our marriage certificate and looked forward to the candle light dinner on the beach. I had even emailed the hotel... more
