El Dorado Seaside Suites

We are currently here I emailed in advance to ask for a ground floor due to wife having walking difficulties. So we got a second floor room miles from any food we have hardly eaten since we arrived managed to get to breakfast , then go back to room have ordered room service but it is stone cold so have not eaten it. I would not recommend this place also way overpriced .

One of the best vacations I've been on. The drinks were amazing and the bartenders were quick! The beach was peaceful and made reading and relaxing a joy. We attended some activities like beach volleyball, bingo, and karaoke night, and Luis made every activity so fun! His coworkers Maria and Benjamin also made participating great!

Stayed at the El Dorado Seaside Palms last 2 weeks in January 2025. We had booked a beachfront suite and were given a room in the 2600 very near the large bar that had like a rave going on at night. We were told this noise would continue until 2 a.m. Extremely load music that literally shook the walls in our room. I called front desk and were moved to a quiet room for the night and then moved to another beachfront suite in the 3000 block. Lovely, what a difference. Our beachfront suite was just steps to the beach. We had a ground floor suite with a terrace with 2 chairs and table. Very nice to relax on the terrace, see the beach area and watch all the wild Coatis eating in the lush vegetation and climbing the trees. The best thing about this resort is the willingness and kindness of the staff. Our housekeeper kept our room so clean. When you come from the beach remove your shoes outside as lots of sand. Bathroom was always cleaned, bed was so comfortable and always made with cute towel arrangements every day. Only down side was we found the pillows too hard. At the beach we had a wonderful beach butler named Calvin. Great personality, always helping and very kind. We always had a beach bed and there were beach chairs also available. The drink servers at the beach were very hard working and very attentive. We did eat at all the restaurants. Our favorite was the Klay Talay, then the Mexican La Carretta and the Culinarium, delicious. We found the Gourmet pub and Mia Casa Italian just OK, not great. The Seaside Market buffet had a good breakfast with lots of choices. Dinners had different theme nights which gave good choices. The Arrecifies buffet was not as plentiful as Seaside but you would not go hungry. The Sandwicherie was fun and had good made to your order pizza, nachos, burritos, hamburgers and hotdogs. We liked the fish burgers and then a delicious mango daiquiri made with real mango puree from the adjacent bar. The beachfront bbq , Kaan is Vegan. You have to have a banana split! Absolutely delightful and delicious. The shuttle service was terrific. We do have mobility issues and the shuttles were always available. All the drivers had good sense of humours and explained the resort areas. After the first couple days we found that walking along or on the path by the beach made a quick walk to restaurants and lobby and also to the activity areas at the Palms. The resort is so lush, full of vegetation and palm trees. Maybe our painted coconuts ( activity program) will actually grow. The resort is a Lomas resort but the Palms side seems to be affiliated as Tui from Britain. We never figured out the difference. We do not usually go back to resorts but we would go back to this resort.

TERRIBLE! We are here now. If you have this booked cancel it!!! I don’t even have time to tell you how horrible it is. Rooms are gross, black stuff coming out of the tub. There is one pool with NO SEATS! We have tried to get help from the concierge and no one cares!

Awesome resort! Jordy the manager of the Italian restaurant made us feel so at home! Sergio was our waiter every time we went! He was amazing!!! We loved him!!! Alicia at the Mexican bar never failed to get our favourite drinks to us before we even sat down. We liked sitting in the lobby just outside the bar and she was always checking on us to make sure we were good! Victor was great. He showed us around when we first got there and gave us some tips. He always checked up on us during our visit. The grounds were beautiful and very well kept!!! Staff was soooo friendly!!!!
