I was very disappointed with my stay at the Aquarius Resort. We stayed a week here and spent as little time as possible in the room. The rooms were dated, dirty, furniture was broken, our bathtub was clogged, pool was dirty not to mention shared by 2 resorts which left almost no seating available at the pool, AND there were roaches! On the flip side the staff was amazing, kind, patient, and tried to help as much as they could and the view from my balcony was the only thing that made the stay bearable. Dorado was beautiful and I would definitely stay in the area again, BUT I will never stay at this resort again!!!

Over all Maybe Ok mini beach( if they clean it), nice pool, needing a real remodel older property. Painting is not remodeling. Rooms were worn out and repaired in the cheapest most ghetto ways, like a low budget MacGyver fixed it with what’s on hand. Heavily overpriced around the board, basic cleaning services. Friendly staff. With a casino. Best for people who want piece and quite and don’t mind being severely overcharged for food , drink. I will say some great restaurants in the area. Don Tako cantina and Al pan pan bread & bestro were really great places to visit. Food was good prices were in the right range. Price of property and extras not really worth coming back. Overview score 4.875 Detail review Score Lobby 7 very well unkept and clean. Unlike rest of property Room 4. Shoddy upkeep. Cut foot in shower from replaced screws in drain that stick out 1/2 inch. On top of shower door was pieced and glued back together could not close or it might fall off. Housekeeping 5. Property 5 Amenities 2 due to false advertisement. One restaurant for breakfast listed with menu is no longer there. Only breakfast option was at hotel connected. $21 per person for ok buffet with. 9:30 cut off. Pool 7 Beach 2. No real beach not unkept. Seaweed, trash and beer cans. About 50ft to 100 ft max with rocks Casino 8. Wish they were better on drinks. Paid $6 for a plastic glass equal to half a bottle of beer. No full beer and glass just a half bottle worth of beer for $6.
