An introduction to El Dorado Royale A Spa Resort By Karisma

Everything about the El Dorado is idyllic. The exotic setting. The first-class service. And the top-notch facilities. And they take the traditional Mexican saying 'mi casa es su casa' to heart. So you know you're in for some serious spoiling from the start. In fact, from the minute you arrive here and are welcomed with a glass of champagne, you'll experience the hotel's signature service, which is second to none.

First up, you'll be shown to your luxurious room. Each suite here is beautifully decorated with a mix of traditional Mexican design such as classic wooden furniture and a hammock on the terrace, and modern comforts like a hot tub for two and air-conditioning. And if you go for a Casita suite, you'll also get a roofless shower, an ocean view Whirlpool Bath and extras like a CD player.

Once you're unpacked you'll be ready to get on with some serious R&R. And there's no better place than by one of the lagoon-style pools, which are dotted around the gorgeous green gardens. Or you could take the few steps onto the angel-white sands and sunbathe on the Bounty-like beach. Another delightful way to relax here is to indulge yourself in the serene spa. With everything from intoxicating milk baths to deluxe facials, you'll be blissed out in nano seconds.

If you want to keep on the go though, there are oodles of activities on offer. On dry land, there's everything from tennis and volleyball to yoga and salsa lessons. And in the water you can take your pick from scuba-diving, kayaking and parasailing. Make sure you take a walk through the grounds while you're here, too. The El Dorado sits in 450 acres of tropical jungle – a peaceful oasis with thousands of swishing palm trees.

However you work up an appetite, you're spoilt for choice in the dining stakes. With eight distinctive a la carte restaurants, it's a difficult decision deciding where to eat first. International cuisine is on offer at El Cocotal and La Isla. Italian fare at D'Italia. Gourmet Mexican at Fuentes Restaurant. Creative pan-Asian at Kampai. Special grills at Jo Jo's Seaside Caribbean Grill. And connoisseur fondues at La Fondue. Each and every eatery is gorgeous too, whether it's trendy minimalist or classically sleek. Decisions. Decisions. When it comes to sumptuous escapes in the sun, the El Dorado is the perfect getaway. It's laid-back luxury, just for adults.

We flew from Newcastle to Cancun on June 23rd after a nightmare check in which took almost two hours as the baggage conveyor kept breaking down (A common problem at Newcastle). This left no time to enjoy the facilities at the airport, most importantly... more on this review
