What an absolute incredible experience to get away and be spoiled by wonderful people. The bungalows are beautiful and clean. The staff is very accommodating! Shout out to Alberto, Daniel and Janet who accommodated all of our needs and wants. The Palafitos restaurant hands down the best restaurant at Maroma Beach! The beach itself is serene and breathtaking. I can keep going on and on but I HIGHLY recommend you see it for yourself. Def worth it! Tip: book on Black Friday, travel Tuesday deal!

Me and my husband celebrated our 15 year anniversary and were treated like royalty throughout our whole trip. The staff treated us as if we were the only ones on the resort and were available for us 24/7 and always checked on us and our needs. El Dorado Resort was also very well maintained and had beautiful grounds, restaurants, beach, and pools.

Had a wonderful time. Aside from an awesome room, the best were the dedicated butlers that always available. We could order in our room anytime we wanted, all included. We could also enjoy the activities and restaurants at their sister hotel next door which is a short walking distance. Thanks!

This was the best resort I've stayed at. The attention to customer service was amazing. We had 2 butlers Samantha and Janet that they went over and beyond for us. From the beach service to the restaurant and room service we wanted for nothing. I've never been on a resort where the food was amazing every meal. Definitely can't wait to return.

Beautiful resort with great service. Our Butlers Samantha and William made sure we had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. Shout out to the sommelier Miguel for giving advice on tequila and wine during our stay. There isn't much to do on the resort but if you want a relaxing stay Palafitos has it.
