Pool Daze

One of the best things about El Dorado Casitas Royale is that even though it is undeniably a mega resort, each of the pods of casitas have their own pool and beach area, making the experience far more intimate.

If you want to play pool volleyball with 200 of your closest — and loudest — friends, you can always wander down to the main pools but if you just want some quiet time with a few friends at a swim-up bar, there's a stool with your name on it just down the stairs from your room.
