The resort is absolutely stunning and very clean. The resort itself had wonderful landscaping and the pool areas were great. Lots of places to lounge, including lovely cabanas for resting near the ocean. The beach was gorgeous, with white sand that never got hot under your feet. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the restaurants were all wonderful. Every meal was good, and some were amazing. Of the inclusions that we tried, the catamaran snorkeling trip was our favorite. We weren't really there for the alcohol, but some people were. We really enjoyed the snorkeling and even saw an albino stingray. The trip was just the right length and the views were lovely. The Cenote/Ranch trip was less enjoyable. The cenote was fine, but not exceptional, although we liked our guide. The Ranch part of it was very detailed introductions to each horse and a long explanation of types of horse shoes and what they are used for. We didn't really enjoy that part. Overall I think this resort is amazing and would definitely go there again!

This is an incredibly special resort. The people make it so easy to come back to time and again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for amazing staff, delicious food, beautiful beach, luxurious accommodations and great entertainment. The spa is fabulous and the Mexican Festival they host weekly is nothing short of spectacular!

Our stay at El Dorado Maroma was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the service was top-notch, making us feel completely taken care of in a truly all-inclusive environment. We stayed in the honeymoon suite, which was stunning—it featured a giant Jacuzzi tub and a beautiful view of the ocean. The resort itself is incredibly quiet and private, which made for a wonderfully relaxing getaway. We often had a pool all to ourselves, which felt like such a luxury. The beach service was first-come, first-serve, but we never had an issue finding a spot, and the service was always excellent. The food was great, with a variety of delicious options. The spa was very clean and beautiful and the couples massage price was reasonable. If I had to mention any downside, it would be the reservation system—having to book dinner and activities in advance took away some of the spontaneity I prefer in a beach vacation. However, that was a small inconvenience compared to how amazing everything else was. Overall, El Dorado Maroma is a fantastic, relaxing, and luxurious escape, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, high-end all-inclusive experience!

We were very happy with all the additional perks, including the hotel transportation and the catamaran and snorkeling tour. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. They worked hard every morning to clear any sargassum that accumulated on the beach. The spa services were top notch and we enjoyed the food at each restaurant. Make sure you visit the Taqueria for lunch. We would definitely recommend staying here!

I think it is a property that should have more exposure. There is nice long clean beaches that has trees and shade. The beach doesn't have waves. Which makes it swimable out front. They have lifeguards. I didnt know that there has activities include like the waterpark, catamaran, and two water pools in the jungle. The food is amazing, you dont sign the room number. No beach vendors. Many a places to drink and eat. Amazing food no buffet.

Quiet and small property. About a half hour from airport in a very secluded forest area. Only other resorts around. Beautiful grounds. Everything is spread out but it’s relatively smaller property. Staff great. Pool area is nice. The beach is nice however there was a lot of seaweed at the time we went so it was not desirable to swim in the ocean. The food and drinks were mid. Not bad but not amazing. The staff were all super nice but not everything was communicated well as far as activities, events, menus, times things opened and closed etc. The place shuts down after dinner time so there isn’t much going on. They had nightly entertainment but it was meh. Room was very nice and clean. We stayed in junior suite with partial ocean view. No complaints about facility or rooms.

Excellent hotel in the Riviera Maya! The beach is amazing nothing compared with CanCun/Playa del Carmen, it is just a paradise. The hotel is great, amazing service, everyone goes the extra mile to make the guests feel comfortable and happy. The food was outstanding (for an all inclusive standards). The activities included (Catamaran/cenetos/cave/waterpatk) were great. If you want to treat yourself with a massage, don’t hesitate to book one, the facilities are great and the service was outstanding. Definitely this is not a party destination (everything closes between 10-11) instead wants a relax time in a great place then this might be a great option.

EDM was amazing!!! ALL staff were attentive and helpful from the time we arrived to the time we left. I had so much enjoying the amenities. The beach, the swim-up pool bar, and the entertainment at Rick’s. I visited with a group and we enjoyed everything. I upgraded from a private pool suite to a swim-up suite. The bathroom with the toilet room needs some updating, but besides that, everything else looks great. I also would love if they upgraded the food options. Some restaurants were, some were closed, some served different items on different days. I think something consistent at each restaurant with different options would be great. I will definitely visit again and recommend.

We had an amazing vacation at El Dorado Maroma. The resort far exceeded our expectations. Lomas Hospitality was there to pick us up at the airport and got us to the resort without any issue. We were fortunate that we were to only ones in our shuttle going to the resort and going back to the airport. The staff were all so wonderful. Carlos at Lima Limon was there every morning to greet us for breakfast. What a special person! Carlos and Karen at Bar "24" knew exactly what we wanted. Rene was always there when we needed a drink on the beach then he was there at the restaurants at night still taking care of everyone. Bladimir and Juan were always attentive at lunch at Papitos. Marlene at Mio was super sweet taking care of us at dinner. I also want to give a big thank you to Fernanda. She was the hostess at Papitos and also at Lima Limon. She remembered our room number after the first day. There were many others that were so special. The food was exceptional. Definitely gourmet and so delicious. We also did a couples massage at Naay Spa. It was a nice experience. Everything as so clean too. Our room was made up daily with fresh towels. Then when we departed and arrived at the airport Lomas Hospitality walked us in the airport and got us checked in and made sure that there wasn't anything else that they could do for us. What a wonderful experience. We will be back for sure. I would highly recommend this property.

We stayed in this property 10 years ago, and went back to it to find a place to spend frequent weekend breaks, thinking that the place would probably had changed a lot in a way that it could be a bit less appealing. Nothing farther than the truth, they have improved a lot while keeling the quiet and exclusive feeling of the resort. All the staff is very friendly and more than helpful, proactive, and the new approach to an "all inclusive" package that basically now included most of the things that used to have extra cost, is amazing. The hotel is super clean, and all the restrooms have A/C and always smell good and are kept dry and well equipped. The spa is an amazing experience, worth every dollar spent, and in general all the services, including the airport transportation are very very professional and safe, exceeding our expectations by far. In the Dorado Maroma, the Lomas group is doing an amazing job, and that includes the services provided right next door at the Maroma beach club, creating a uniform and high-quality experience for visitors, in such a transparent way, with the same standards suitable for demanding customers. For sure we will be back, and now are considering a membership, as this is a perfect spot to relax, and besides what nature provides, Lomas brings up the rest to make it possible. Congratulations to all the team!

This resort truly surprised us. First off I would like to say that we stayed at the Mi Hotelito room. I heard they have been the most recently renovated. It was a beautiful room that felt like a tropical getaway. The location was prime! That was our favorite part. We loved hanging out on our little patio and still received butler service there. Service everywhere was outstanding. Staff were always very happy to help. The food was the best we've had at an all-inclusive. It's a smaller resort and no buffet, so everything is cooked fresh. We usually get tired of the food by the end but not here. Chips and salsas to begin most meals. There are lots of Mexican options on the menu. We once went to a resort in Mexico with no Mexican restaurant, and it was so disappointing. El dorado maroma felt very Mexican and not just like an American resort in Mexico. We loved all the Mexican touches here. We wish they would do away with needing reservations at the restaurants. Felt very unnecessary. The beach was beautiful, but I will admit it's not exactly the type of beach I enjoy. I love swimming in the ocean. This was pretty shallow, and they had black metal lumps in the water that were pretty unsightly. The loungers are also kept pretty far back. It would have been nice if they were closer to the water. I still enjoyed it nonetheless. The paddleboarding and kayaks were free and made the ocean very enjoyable. There was never a wait to use them. While paddleboarding, I saw starfish, a sting

We spent our honeymoon here at El Dorado Maroma. The views are breathtaking, service is usually amazing, although we did have a couple waiters who missed a few steps occasionally( like not bringing us breakfast pastries basket when all other tables got one.) The have a great selection of food and alcohol included, Patron, 1800, good options. The main pool area is quite loud, and could be heard from inside our private pool suite, so we spent most of our time at another pool in a quieter area. (They did offer to move us for $100/per night upgrade). The catamaran boat tour with snorkeling was very interesting and we saw the second largest coral reef with a giant sea turtle! The property did need some upgrades in furniture that isn’t damaged and new carpet, but the rest of the resort was in good shape. I wouldn’t recommend the provided transportation as it took us over two hours after arriving to the van to actually get to our hotel, but overall a very pleasant experience and a great choice in Playa del Carmen. The landscaping and tropical gardens really won us over, as well as the resorts smaller scale in comparison to the mega resorts.

Took my mom here for her 60th birthday for a mother-daughter trip. This resort is a smaller boutique-like resort right on the beach. Overall this was a spectacular experience. There were a few hiccups like the jacuzzi tub not working in our room but after letting the staff know they sent someone to fix it. The food is amazing! What makes this place wonderful is the friendly staff. There is not really any night life or late-night entertainment or shows here but this is more a place to relax. The beach is definitely the most beautiful in Mexico and there is wait-staff on the beach to serve drinks. Thoroughly enjoyed this place but this place is definitely a place of rest and relaxation and not a place to come for a party. 10/10 would come back!

We picked this all-inclusive, because it is well-rated for service, food and is noted for being a quiet, all adult resort, with a great beach. We were not disappointed - we had a rejuvenating relaxing beach holiday. There was a bit of a sales pitch, when booking our dinner reservations, for their vacation club, but we were firm in letting them know, thank you, but, no thank you, and that was the end of the sales pitch, so no issues. Overall, good value for our time and money. Recommend. :)

We’ve stayed here multiple times. We really like the small size of the resort and quality food. There did seem to be a drop off in the quality of service. I asked the concierge 2 days in a row to book us a reservation and it never happened. I also mentioned a few issues with the room that were minor but were never addressed. At dinner we had a bottle of wine that we ordered and it was court so we sent it back. They never offered other options so we went the entire meal without a bottle of wine which I would gladly have purchased. The house wine options are not very good which is fine because they do have bottles you can purchase. Not sure what changed since the last few times we have been, but we likely will try other places. The location, size, and grounds are great.

as a female solo traveler, safety is paramount, and i never felt so safe while on vacation as i did here. the place is amazing. the bathrooms smell delicious. the restaurants offer delicious options and cater to any allergies or preferences you might have. be sure to book the specialty restaurants for suppers. the theme nights they offer once a week are quite the experience ( i only go to do the mexican night but thoroughly enjoyed it). the staff are very attentive- at the beach, in the restaurants, at the pools, everywhere you go. I've never felt so pampered from the time i arrived to the time i left. lots of activities to do each day from dancing lessons, to mini individual spanish lessons on the beach, arts and crafts, cooking lessons, beach and pool volleyball, etc and those are only the ones that i was informed about from roaming staff. the fact that it is only for 18 and over is so refreshing. do the on site excursions *based next door like the catamaran snorkling trip, camel ride, etc) or go off site for the cenote and cave trip for even more fun. if i would have had more days i would have done every offered excursion. the transportation, cleaning staff, bar tenders, pool cleaners, medics, life guards, bell boys, beach attendants, spa staff, restaurant staff, personal concierge, check in staff deserve much credit for making their clients enjoy the vacation even more memorable. everyone was so helpful and friendly. you wont go wrong choosing to book this property.

A Perfectly Romantic and Accommodating Escape – El Dorado Maroma Our stay at El Dorado Maroma was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make sure our experience was special. Unfortunately, my boyfriend fell ill during our trip, but the concierge was incredibly helpful—they assisted me in getting a doctor and even arranged transportation to the pharmacy for his medication. Despite being under the weather, he still got to enjoy his birthday, as the staff thoughtfully brought the celebration to our room, ensuring he felt special. The resort itself is stunning. The rooms were impeccably clean, and every staff member we encountered was warm, accommodating, and genuinely dedicated to making our stay wonderful. The beach? Absolutely breathtaking—easily the most beautiful I’ve seen in Mexico, and I’ve been to quite a few. The tranquility of the resort was another highlight. It often felt like we had the entire place to ourselves, which made for a romantic and peaceful escape. If you’re looking for a lively party scene, this isn’t the place—but for those seeking relaxation and intimacy, it’s perfect. Since my boyfriend was resting, I attended their 60-minute membership presentation, and while I ultimately didn’t join, I appreciated how pleasant and non-pushy the experience was. Maybe next time! El Dorado Maroma exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to come back for another unforgettable stay.

The staff were friendly and helpful, and the restaurants were all wonderful. Every meal was good, and some were amazing. Of the inclusions that we tried, the catamaran snorkeling trip was our favorite. We weren't really there for the alcohol, but some people were. We really enjoyed the snorkeling and even saw an albino stingray. The trip was just the right length and the views were lovely. The Cenote/Ranch trip was less enjoyable. The cenote was fine, but not exceptional, although we liked our guide. The Ranch part of it was very detailed introductions to each horse and a long explanation of types of horse shoes and what they are used for. We didn't really enjoy that part. Overall I think this resort is amazing and would definitely go there again!

We loved our stay at El Dorado Maroma! The resort is the perfect size for a couples getaway. We were very happy with all the additional perks, including the hotel transportation and the catamaran and snorkeling tour. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. They worked hard every morning to clear any sargassum that accumulated on the beach. The spa services were top notch and we enjoyed the food at each restaurant. Make sure you visit the Taqueria for lunch. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Beautiful property with excellent staff. The beach is beautiful, sandy and very well maintained. Big thanks goes to all the CHEFS — the food is delicious! Make sure to contact the hotel and arrange free airport shuttle. Well organized.

Quiet and small property. About a half hour from airport in a very secluded forest area. Only other resorts around. Beautiful grounds. Everything is spread out but it’s relatively smaller property. Staff great. Pool area is nice. The beach is nice however there was a lot of seaweed at the time we went so it was not desirable to swim in the ocean. The food and drinks were mid. Not bad but not amazing. The staff were all super nice but not everything was communicated well as far as activities, events, menus, times things opened and closed etc. The place shuts down after dinner time so there isn’t much going on. They had nightly entertainment but it was meh. Room was very nice and clean. We stayed in junior suite with partial ocean view. No complaints about facility or rooms.

Excellent hotel in the Riviera Maya! The beach is amazing nothing compared with CanCun/Playa del Carmen, it is just a paradise. The hotel is great, amazing service, everyone goes the extra mile to make the guests feel comfortable and happy. The food was outstanding (for an all inclusive standards). The activities included (Catamaran/cenetos/cave/waterpatk) were great. If you want to treat yourself with a massage, don’t hesitate to book one, the facilities are great and the service was outstanding. Definitely this is not a party destination (everything closes between 10-11) instead wants a relax time in a great place then this might be a great option.

This is a great, little resort. The beach is, in my opinion, is one of the best in the area. It is white and powdery. The staff rakes it each morning so there are no rocks or debris. There could be more beach chairs, but the staff work very hard to assure that you get a chair. My room was perfectly located within walking distance to the beach. I had a room directly above Rick’s bar and the adjoining pool, but never felt it was too loud. The staff are all very hard working and welcoming. The grounds at the resort are immaculate. The staff members at the bars, the beach and the restaurants were all amazing. If you’re looking for a quiet laid back vibe, this is your place.

Took my mom here for her 60th birthday for a mother-daughter trip. This resort is a smaller boutique-like resort right on the beach. Overall this was a spectacular experience. There were a few hiccups like the jacuzzi tub not working in our room but after letting the staff know they sent someone to fix it. The food is amazing! What makes this place wonderful is the friendly staff. There is not really any night life or late-night entertainment or shows here but this is more a place to relax. The beach is definitely the most beautiful in Mexico and there is wait-staff on the beach to serve drinks. Thoroughly enjoyed this place but this place is definitely a place of rest and relaxation and not a place to come for a party. 10/10 would come back!

Our stay at El Dorado Maroma was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the service was top-notch, making us feel completely taken care of in a truly all-inclusive environment. We stayed in the honeymoon suite, which was stunning—it featured a giant Jacuzzi tub and a beautiful view of the ocean. The resort itself is incredibly quiet and private, which made for a wonderfully relaxing getaway. We often had a pool all to ourselves, which felt like such a luxury. The beach service was first-come, first-serve, but we never had an issue finding a spot, and the service was always excellent. The food was great, with a variety of delicious options. The spa was very clean and beautiful and the couples massage price was reasonable. If I had to mention any downside, it would be the reservation system—having to book dinner and activities in advance took away some of the spontaneity I prefer in a beach vacation. However, that was a small inconvenience compared to how amazing everything else was. Overall, El Dorado Maroma is a fantastic, relaxing, and luxurious escape, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, high-end all-inclusive experience!

Perfect all inclusive for a relaxing getaway. The staff was great, very attentive, the beach is incredible, the amenities are such that there is no reason to actually leave the resort outside of the included activities like the cenotes etc. Food is decent, not amazing. The brunch at the day club was the best, mostly everything else is pre-made and heated up, so there is a noticeable difference in quality between a 7:00 reservation and a 9:30 reservation, but overall I would absolutely return.

The El Dorado Maroma sits on a pristine beachside property. It has incredible food options, views, service, and pools. Breakfasts are unbeatable, featuring authentic Mexican cuisine, while lunches and dinners provide excellent options at Caribbean, Peruvian, and Italian restaurants, each with dishes to compete with the best restaurants anywhere. The waiters are always friendly, and the service staff helpful. Look for Arturo at Pepito's for especially friendly service. That guy's the best! We can't say enough about this place and are already talking about going back!

Food was horrible. Pretending to be gourmet restaurant with cheap Chinese food served as Asian fusion.Christmas dinner was pathetic. Beach is nice but you have to tip for towels. For chairs, for a cup of water . They said is all inclusive but you have to tip for towels in the room.for coffee pods For room breakfast , for dinner , for lunch. No buffet available even they states on Expedia there is buffet.
