We recently traveled to Mexico and toured 9 resorts while during our stay. This was our second trip to the Riviera Maya in the last 6 months, and also the second time we've stayed at El Dorado Royale. Since our livelihood depends upon planning fantastic honeymoon and destination weddings for others, we're a bit more picky than the average traveler.... more

We have been to EDR eight times and we actually think it is getting better ! All of the reviews are on point, this is a really great facility. Lots to do, if you want, not so much, if you don't. Really great food and liquor choices, and the service is extraordinary. Having been there so often, we see many... more

Our stay was Sept. 3-8. It was too short as always but a very relaxing & peaceful getaway with my hubby! This was our first time to stay in a Casita but our 4th time at EDR. We stayed in an Individual Casita (room 2719) literally steps from the beach. The view was beautiful, especially from our back patio with... more

From the second we walked in there we were disappointed. The staff that checked you in was incredibly slow. When the man was checking us in, he would continuously stop to talk to other people. The whole check in process took almost 30 minutes. We asked for an upgrade and he said there were none available. They gave us a... more
