El Dorado Seaside Suites, by Karisma
in
Riviera Maya
,
Mexico - Caribbean Coast
- On the beach
- Ideal for weddings and honeymoons
- Jacuzzi™ junior suites as standard
Stylish, intimate, and with a first-class setting, the El Dorado was made for chic retreats à deux.
When you're welcomed by a glass of Champagne, you know you're in for something special. And that's where beachfront El Dorado Seaside Suites excels. We're talking luxurious touches like butler service on the shorefront, his 'n' hers spa treatments, and four-poster daybeds on the sand.
The main swimming pool takes centre-stage, weaving through the hotel, passing paved sun terraces, comfy loungers and thatched parasols along the way. Factor in three swim-up bars and you've got a first-class pool scene.
In terms of your own private space, there's a choice of luxurious Junior suites. They all feature private whirlpool baths, outdoor showers and plasma TVs. Some rooms even have access to a lazy river, so you can take a dip whenever you fancy.
When it comes to dining, the hotel goes down the Gourmet All Inclusive route. It means you've got seven à la carte restaurants to choose from. And it all comes courtesy of top international chefs. In fact, the All Inclusive offering here is so highly regarded, it's been endorsed by travel industry experts.

Your guide to Riviera Maya, Mexico - Caribbean Coast
“Swaying coconut palms, immaculate beaches and sun-baked ruins – the Riviera Maya puts you in touch with a slower, more genuine Mexico.”
Grab that sombrero. If you want your beach with a frisson of authentic Mexico on the side, this is a winner. This 30-kilometre slice of Yucatan shoreline from Playa del Carmen to Punta Allen offers up a less hedonistic kind of holiday than Cancun. OK, the hotels are still showpiece, plush and mostly all-inclusive - so you’ll have all the comforts you can think of. But there are two differences. First, there’s more emphasis on the simple joys of the beach than in bigger, brasher Cancun and its environs. And because the sands here are backed by low-lying jungle you’ll get the tropical touch of swaying coconut palms and reminders of Mexican’s ancient history closer by too. Here, you’ll find resorts like stylish Playa del Carmen and quiet havens like Puerto Aventuras. All boasting pure white sands and ultra-bright seas, they’re brilliant for serious sunbathing, swimming and watersporting. And if you’re a snorkeller or scuba diver, you’ll adore the spectacular Maya Reef waiting offshore. You won’t be short of modern-day entertainments either. Right along this shoreline you’ll find sports like tennis, golf and game fishing, together with secluded areas of beach perfect for indulging in me-time. And if you ever fancy some retail or nightlife therapy, Playa del Carmen’s cafes, shops and clubs will do the trick. As if this wasn’t enough, long-lost Mexico beckons nearby. Travel to Tulum to admire its mysterious cliff-edge Mayan temple. Go gawp at the amazing ruins at Chichen Itza, crowned by a stunning stepped pyramid. And then retreat to your hotel for a moonlit margarita on the sands -an exotic finale to an intoxicatingly Mexican day.
