I loved their professional yet welcoming appearance and demeanor. My driver Jesus Cruz was great and made sure I arrived at the El Dorado Resort in a safe and timely manner. Check in was a breeze, I loved the quality and amount of activities available to me at no extra cost and ease of scheduling. I could choose to slow down and relax or be busy and explore, best of both worlds! Food and drinks are top notch, and the variety of food available is unbelievable. I wish I could have tried something from every place! Traveling solo, I felt extremely safe the entire time on the property and when out on activities. My casita was beautiful. I had a swim up third from the beach. I booked a massage and water experience with the spa right near my casita. I highly recommend El Dorado Resort and Lomas Hospitality for more inclusive travel.

Great if you just want to stay on property, eat, drink, and stay by the pool. Not great for beach time or adventure. Beaches have big ugly concrete blocks not far out in the water. Beaches often are rock or have a big drop before sand.

I expected white sands and a beach close to our room The sargassum seaweed was excessive, and was continually being cleared ineffectively from the beach, which actually didn't exist and the view was marred by concrete obelisks presumably there to prevent further erosion. So that it was not possible to enter the sea from the resort

We have been coming to this resort since 2012. Historically, it has been the resort to which we compare all other resorts. This time, however, our experience was not up to usual standards. We stayed in casitas (2702), and the main issue was that when we tried to fill the tub with water, it flowed out around the faucet. Maintenance said it was a leak in the wall, and they would have to break open the wall to fix it. Our stay this time was short, so we didn't want them to "repair" the faucet while we were there, but I am not sure we will be returning to Casitas on our next trip. The experience this time was not in proportion to the price for 4 days and 3 nights ($1800). Also, the air conditioner did not keep the room cool enough to sleep comfortably without sticking to the sheets. Finally, the rubber weather stripping around the glass door leading to the patio was falling off (probably why the room wouldn't cool). Our snacks were refilled on day 2, but not on day 3. We knew from previous visits that the beach was not the best, but this time, the beach was awful! It was covered in sargasso, and the smell was so strong in front of Casitas 26-28 that sitting on the palapas was unpleasant. In addition to the smell, the tiny bugs that live in seaweed were biting. The only beach area that could be used was in front of the presidential suites and the burger restaurant in El Royal. Food was not as good as it used to be. Four of 6 people in party got food poisoning.

The staff are wonderful! We had a swim out room at the Casitas area and thought it was absolutely worth it. I can’t find a single thing to be unhappy with. We both enjoyed the included day at Maroma Beach with the catamaran snorkel. That was some an awesome inclusion. The entire resort as well as the Lomas travel team and the staff at Maroma are so well organized and punctual. We had the best time!

Do not go here . There are so many beautiful alternatives. El dorado is a cynical money grab - the nastiest most uncaring staff ever. The view may be 5 star. The stay itself is 1 star . All they care about is collecting your money and treating you with rudeness , no compassion- no interest in your joy. They are ice cold. This is the most cynical money grab - false advertising. I’ve traveled all over the world. This is the single worst most unpleasant experience I have ever had. They don’t maintain the property. They are passionless. As one Canadian person said to me “my wife and I are not rich- we saved for 4 years to come here - we want to leave early - I’d pay more to get just one smile let alone help or recommendations. When I said “I’d love to know your favorite activities “ the response “look at the app. Pick something . We will see if reservations are available.” I hope the corporate owners are paying attention: it’s serious. Every person I met said they would NEVER RETURN. Two days in “paradise” and I left angry, disrespected, stressed , and deeply upset. Stay away. This place needs a company retreat and reflection on why they are in the business the are . You’ll be treated better waiting on hold with with AT&T for customer service, than to dare to ask for some pleasant interaction, let alone assistance. Everything about this place is shameful.

Beautiful resort, plenty of options for food & enjoying the scenery. We loved the location and how we could utilize all the amenities at all 3 resorts. We do think there could be more signage for directions because the first day was kinda confusing on figuring out where everything was but once we did it was a breeze and the app was helpful.
