El Dorado Royale, All & More Inclusive Adults Only

Love, love, love El Dorado. My best friend and I spent 5 days being pampered and waited on. The room seemed slightly outdated but we still loved it. Very clean. Stocked minibar. Wonderful staff.

The newly renovated rooms are beautiful. The staff, as always, was great.

Everything was excellent! We will definitely be back!

There were some great things about the resort and some not so great. Our room was okay but not what you would expect for an upgraded suite. Bathroom tap was ready to fall off, furniture was dirty and rickety and the patio door lock broke when we closed the door. We complained about a really old mattress and they replaced it right away. The quiet pool wasn't in the best shape, missing tiles, dirty grout. Staff basically ignored the people around the quiet pool and we had to hunt down our own drinks. There are huge triangular wave breakers in the ocean that really detract from the view. We understood their purposes but it wasn't very attractive. We weren't aware that the resort was linked to the Casitas Royale and Generations. This needs to be communicated better on the Expedia site. This meant a lot of time spent waiting for golf carts to take you around. It was hard to get a dinner reservation because all guests from all 3 resorts were trying to get spots. We were eating at 9:00 pm some nights - not ideal. About 80% of the staff were awesome. You could tell the other 20% were fed up with the tourists and guests. Staff spent a fair bit of time trying to sell you on things. Spa, time share etc. Even as we were checking out, staff were trying to get us to put a deposit down to get a discount on our next stay. We were there to relax, not fight off salespeople. We've stayed at other, much better, all inclusive resorts in Mexico and we won't return to this one.
