Spa Hotels in Riviera Maya

We would rate the Paradisus La Esmeralda as a 5 star resort. Our experience from beginning to end was wonder. We were pampered all the while we were there. The hotel staff, and we mean everyone, was very friendly and helpful. The resort is beautiful throughout, from the main lobby, the grounds, rooms, restaurants, bars, and lounge areas. Cleaniness is important--and you can see them cleaning all the floors, glass and grounds. We were extremely surprised at the accommodations of our room--beautiful. There are twelve restaurants on the complex with a variety of world wide cuisines. Dress codes for the restaurants are resort casual except for one restaurant which is Resort Elegant. Most of the restaurants need reservations except one which is Naos, this is open to everyone and serves an international buffet and show cooking--the variety of food is awesome--the food is wonderful and there is something for everyone. The resort services everyone, they have many things for children to do--family orientated. The beach is not visible from the resort because of the line of mangrove trees, but the resort has a boardwalk which gives you access to the beautiful white sand beach. The walk to the beach is really short--at the beach the resort furnishes towels, lounge chairs with umbrellas, there is bar service and a grill for food (what more could you ask) there are also foot showers at the end of the boardwalk to wash off sand.
