The El Dorado Seaside Suites in Kantenah, Mexico is one of the most beautiful all inclusive resorts I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. When you drive off the main highway (a little past Playa Del Carmen proper), onto the grounds of the resort, you literally enter another world. It is a place of peace and beauty that will take your breath away.
I have been a collector of all types of travel trinkets since I was a very small child. Each summer, my family would travel to the beach and I would spend hours collecting shells and shark's teeth to add to my shoe box of treasures packed away in my closet.
Although my tastes have changed considerably, I still surround myself with treasures collected near and far. Each time I walk into my home, I am immediately taken back to each and every grand adventure.
This was my 15th trip to Cancun, Playa del Carmen and the Yucatan Peninsula, but my first experience with the El Dorado Seaside Suites, a Karisma Resort (which I would highly, highly recommend, by the way). Viola and I had been doing some serious jungle trekking and ruin exploration and decided that our poor, tired muscles would benefit from a little relaxation. We signed up for the Pre-Hispanic Mystical Experience, preceded by the Water Journey...we didn't know it at the time, but we were in for the experience of a lifetime!
Our concierge golfcart driver picked us up right outside our room and we were off, down the palm tree-lined paths, through the beautiful gardens, past the 5-star restaurants and we arrived at the gorgeous Na'ay Spa. We were greeted by our personal spa consultant (a quite handsome young fellow) who graciously showed us in, and started us on our journey.
