Great Food and Experiences

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 weeks ago
The food in the restaurants is great. Better than any resort I have been to. Don’t miss the rooftop bar! You can get a golf cart to bring you. The bartender there is wonderful and very attentive. The best part of our trip was Willy the sommelier. He went above and beyond to make our experience extra special. Make sure to go to the wine, sparkling wine, and tequila tastings! They are very informative and well worth it.

The rooms and pillows were very comfortable, our butlers Noah and Omar were personable and did an amazing job to make sure we were well taken care of. We had a great time by the pools and the food was excellent. Our lobster dinner at the Italian restaurant was amazing.

Room tip: A lot of fun games at the Marina pool

Relaxing and peaceful vacation. Staff is pleasant and accommodating. We love the Ventus pool, it is a great place to soak up the sun and read your book. After a day in the sun we like the flexibility of the buffet or room service at supper time. We usually go for 1 week in October/November and 2 weeks in February.

We have never stayed at a resort before so I have no others to compare it to, however we are regular cruisers on celebrity cruise lines which Is higher end and amazing, that being said EL Cid is amazing!! The checkin was a bit of a long wait but we were greeted with a choice of drinks from the bar. The food was great here, The rooms were big and very clean!! We enjoyed everything we ate, The reservations for restaurants were not easy to get, that was a bummer. We were able to eat in the French restaurant but that was all. The French restaurant was very very upscale and food was amazing and service was impeccable!! The pools were so big here that they were never crowded and always plenty of lounging chairs. Plenty of places around all the pools to get drinks or wait for a waiter to come by and bring you a drink. This place is so big we didn’t even make it over to the 3rd resort you have access too, to see those pools. You have access to 3 resorts at EL Cid and it’s such s big place!! The grounds of this place are so beautiful, so clean, there are ponds that have turtles, fish, lizards and alligators, (alligators are fenced in) they were so neat to watch.
The one thing that Would make me decide to go to another place would be the beach. This place does not have great access to beach. It had barriers set up to stop waves and was not clear water. I have my own snorkel gear and wanted to do snorkeling from the beach on my own but that wasn’t happening. To get snorkeling in, did book a snorkel tour.
If you like to just stay around pools however, the pools at this place certainly make up for the lack of beach cause they are absolutely beautiful pools and massive!!
I would definitely come back to this place because it was an excellent experience!!

Room tip: The beach was not a great beach for swimming much or snorkeling. The pools make up for the lack of beach however.
