    Little slice of paradise
    11 Jun , 2019 AndreaEssex27
    We spent 10 glorious days in a beachfront apartment with complimentary room service. Every day we easily found a Bali bed either on the beach near the lagoon or round a pool. Our favourite pool was by the Spot restaurant which we visited for breakfast most days. We ate at many of the restaurants including Jojos, Jade, Kampia, Casita D’Italia, Runicon Mexican all were excellent both for service and food. We enjoyed the bands we saw in the evening and caught a few of the acts. Each time we were served drinks where we sat so no need to queue at the bar - the same at the pool or beach. Premium spirits were available if you asked for them or cocktails - my husband enjoyed the Iceberg, lager with a frozen margarita top. The resort staff worked tirelessly to keep the grounds immaculate and everyone had a cheery ‘Hola’ even the poor souls trying to clear the seaweed from early in the morning. There must be an easier way to collect the mass that arrives every day. After a stroll to a restaurant in the evening, we caught a ride back on one of the many golf buggies whizzing around the resort. The private transfers we opted for were well worth it. All in all, a really relaxing break. Just we needed.
    Fabulous Resort
    11 Jun , 2019 Margaret R
    Just spent 2 weeks at this FABULOUS RESORT. From the minute we arrived until the day we left we were made to feel special. Our room was very comfortable and was cleaned every day to a high standard. The grounds are just beautiful and staff work very hard to maintain this. We opted to spend most days at Spot pool where we managed to get a sun bed with no problem and were looked after by Isaac at the pool bar. The choice of restaurants were fab and all served delicious meals, our favourites being Jo Jo’s, Jade and both Italian restaurants. The Feuntes Cullinary Theatre is also a must. All staff deserve a mention as they are so friendly and hard working and all say “Hola” as they go by. The beach was a bit of a let down due to the amount of seaweed but this is not the hotels fault and did not spoil our holiday. We met some lovely people who made our holiday extra special. Thank you El Dorado Royale, you were awesome. Hope to visit again soon.
    Best time

    The facility is excellent. All the staff wants to make sure you are happy. But certain members stand out. Claudia from concierge, Israel from butlers, Eduardo, Nilda, Ada and Jorge from the beach spa these all went out of their way to
    El Dorado Royale Casitas vs Secrets Akumal
    11 Jun , 2019 amadeusLIVES, 34242
    TL;DR: Overall very good experience, Akumal vs EDR casitas depends on what you prioritize. I’ve been to Secrets Akumal, Secrets Cap Cana and EDR Casitas. For travelers having a tough time making a decision I’ll give you a brief comparison between EDR and Secrets Akumal (Akumal is better than Secrets Cap Cana so i’d skip It in favor of akumal). I never write reviews but i felt compelled to because picking the right resort can be a little overwhelming. I think if you prioritize spa, relaxation and beach go Secrets Akumal. If you prioritize food, room, price and pool go EDR. So tough to say which one we go with in the future but will probably depend on what we want to do on our vacation. The differences between them though is like comparing a Tesla to a Porche or a Shelby Mustang to a Corvette. Either way you’ll enjoy the ride.
