The resort is environmentally-conscious and prides itself on conserving natural resources.
The Royal, Playa del Carmen
The Royal, Playa del Carmen from Playa Resorts is just steps from 5th Avenue, Playa del Carmen’s popular main street with shopping, dining and nightlife. But the resort itself is amazing. Royal Service® provided by beach butlers and romance concierges will make your clients’ stay feel tailored just for them. They can also learn from the resort’s tequila connoisseurs, wine sommeliers, and professional mixologists who guide tastings for guests.
El Dorado Seaside Suites
Located on Kantenah Bay in Riviera Maya, El Dorado Seaside Suites offers two distinct experiences: Palms and Infinity. The Palms, the resort’s original section, is all about tranquility with intimate accommodations, authentic Mexican architecture, lush vegetation and serene coconut plantations.
Infinity, the newer addition, is all-oceanfront and features swim-up suites connecting to the main pool and balcony pools on every single floor. This resort is one of Condé Nast Traveler’s Top 30 Best Resorts in Cancun & the Yucatan, so why not spend your vacation there?
