Mexico will always be a little pinch of paradise and my favourite holiday destination. From the historic beauty of Yucatán to exploring Isla Mujeres from the comfort of my own 50s style Chevrolet golf cart, what more could I want? I headed to El Dorado Casitas Royale by Karisma, an adults only retreat nestled along the beach on the Riviera Maya ready to soak up the Mexican vibes.
Here’s all the intel from El Dorado Casitas Royale by Karisma.

Alice’s Top Tips
• Ask for the chamomile aromatherapy scent in your room, it smells so good!
• The frozen peach bellinis are a must have cocktail.
• Treat yourself to pudding paradise with rose macaron served with the chocolate dessert at The Santa Fe Grill, my favourite.
• Upgrade to private transfers. They’re quick, easy, and make getting to the resort it a breeze.
• Head down to Healthy Corner where you can pick up a freshly made tropical fruit smoothie.
