Aug 04, 2025Fun and Sexy Vacation!
This was our 6th visit to Pearl and we planned our 7th trip before we left. The staff at the resort are top tier! From check in to check out, you will encounter some of the best people. The staff truly treat you like family. They work very hard to make your visit amazing. It really has been difficult to see staff leave and not be able to say goodbye. Some of our favorite staff are: Peter, Mauri - bartenders Orlando - server at Pearl Miguel, Antonio, Victor - pool guys Gabriel, Rebeca - spa Servando, Yolanda - pool server Deyvison- waiter at Aphrodite Ediberto - waiter at Aphrodite Irving, Hector, Erick - butlers Javier - gardener Candice, Kia, Abbie - Playmakers Our favorite Playmaker, Bella, switched over to Desire Riviera Maya during our 5th trip. She is absolutely amazing and missed very much at Pearl! I would love to give 5 stars, but the food options (or lack there of) make that difficult for me. The food is mediocre for me. The breakfast and lunch buffets are ok, but just that…ok. Our butler worked with the Chef at Suki to make a special entree for me and it was amazing - so much so that I had it twice while we were there! I do wish they had more vegetarian meals without the plant based “meat” option. If you are looking for a fun and sexy vacation with your significant other, look no further!

Jul 23, 2025What a Blast
The staff was outstanding. So nice and friendly. I can't say enough of good things about them all. We met a lot of great people. And had a blast. The rooms were clean and roomy. The bathrooms were clean and well maintain. Our hot tub was just amazing to sit in and face the ocean. Can't wait to go back.

The best vacation ever
Great place, great service, the best place. You must go in the mood of feeling free to get the best experience. You can enjoy delightful time in couple but try to make new friends. It really is a whole new addicting experience.

This was our first trip to Desire Pearl after several trips to Desire RM and we are now Pearl people. The resort itself is small and intimate enough to easily move around without feeling crowded. We appreciated the dinner reservation system they have in place with a provided calender of what each restaurant was serving each night. It allowed us to plan out our dining options for the entire stay within a day of our arrival. The food was delicious and fresh. We love the quiet section of the pool that allows you to enjoy the water while still relaxing. If you've never been to a Desire resort, you need to know that the staff makes the resort. You'll want for nothing and they are incredibly genuine. Every single staff member was amazing, but we do have some people that just stood out to us. The waitstaff at Aphrodite: Carmen, Sebastian, Rey, Mildredt, Oliver, Maylani, Manuela, Chef Ruben, and Onell were fantastic at every meal we had. At the Pearl restaurant/Mansion restaurant: Orlando, Roberto, Gilberto, and Jesus made every dining experience special. At Suki, we really appreciated Memo's wonderful hospitality. At Allure Spa: Claudia gave a wonderful pedicure while Elodie and Selene gave the most relaxing massages. Our butlers, Carlos and Amir went above and beyond more times than we can count. Our absolute favorites of the trip were Victor and Antonio at the pool. Gracious and welcoming doesn't do them justice. Every single day, no matter how busy they were, they made sure that we had a bed or chairs in the best possible spot. They made our trip! We can't wait to come home to our home away from home next year.

Where to even begin? We loved it so much we booked a trip for November before we even left the resort. The staff were beyond attentive. They took care of every need, often before you even knew it was a “need”. Victor at the pool Was amazing. I have nothing to say but positive Things about the place.
