El Dorado Seaside Suites by Karisma

Located in Mexico’s stunning Riviera Maya, El Dorado Seaside Suites offer a 5 star gourmet inclusive® experience for adults. The resort is split into two distinct sections and you can choose the one which best suits you. Infinity is a modern oceanfront building with swim-up suites and balcony pools on every floor. Or stay in the Palms section if you prefer to be next to a white sand beach with coconut plantations. And best of all, you'll be handed a glass of sparkling wine upon arrival.

Start your day by choosing where you’ll eat breakfast. One of the offerings is an exciting grilled feast on the beach. Or you can opt for one of three more conventional options, which allow you to consume your first meal at any time between 6am and 11am. In the evening there’s a choice of seven places to dine. Whether you prefer international cuisine, Caribbean dishes, Asian fusion, local Mexican delicacies or Italian, there’s something for you. Those wanting home comforts can opt for one of the British favourites like shepherd’s pie, fish & chips and rice pudding.

Whatever time of day it is you’ll be able to get something to eat, with early lunch options starting as soon as late breakfast finishes. While light meals and grilled BBQ delights are available throughout the afternoon, until dinner options become available. There’s plenty of variety of scenery too, with dining tables set among tropical trees, in beach huts, as well as inside the building. If you prefer to eat on your terrace, room service is available 24/7.

In total there are ten bars, including four swim-up options. Between them they offer a range of soft and alcoholic drinks from 9am to 2am. Mezcalito, named after the Mexican drink Mezcal, serves a wide assortment of liquors. While at Margaritas both the beverages and views are exotic. Whether you prefer a lively end to the day with entertainment or a quiet drink while admiring the view, there’s something for you.

Guests get complimentary use of the sauna, steam bath and the fitness centre. Choose from five swimming pools and if you’re adventurous book a scuba diving class. For an additional charge El Dorado Seaside Suites offer private candlelight dining, fresh lobster, further international wine options from the cellar and spa packages. Just what you need if you’re planning the perfect romantic trip.

In the Infinity section swim-up suites are a generous 54m2 and include a 10.4m2 terrace. As well as the standard amenities you would expect at a 5 star property, there is a round sofa for two that swivels 360 degrees to enjoy the wonderful views. While in the Palms building, junior suites offer 45m2 of space. Connecting rooms are available on request and each suite has a bath.

El Dorado Seaside Suites offer scuba diving excursions (for a surcharge) and kayaking. While you will feel extremely comfortable within the resort, you shouldn’t miss out on the national beauty in the area. Kantun Chi, under 7km away, is an exotic and relaxing paradise with impressive cenotes (water caves). In the other direction Yal-ku Cenote y Laguna Yalku is an eco park that offers something for everyone. Clear waters for swimming or snorkelling, hiking paths, beaches for those who like to relax and if you’re lucky you might spot some turtles.
