Desire was simply AMAZING!!! We can't wait to book our next trip here. The staff in general are great anything needed they are on it ASAP. The resort met our expectations to the fullest. The food is out of this world, and I already miss our buffet lunches and late-night pizza from the bar. You never meet an unfriendly person that isn't willing to communicate. You will have an excellent time no doubt about it.

Best Vacation/Resort Ever!!!

Pros: First class accommodations, food, alcohol.
Cons: More foam parties in the pool!!!
Location: Went to ruins one day but when we return we wont be leaving resort.
This is the first time we have went to a adult only. clothing optional, lifestyle resort. All we can say is this place is first class from top to bottom. The service was spot on, every hotel staff we interacted with went above and beyond to make us feel relaxed and taken care of. The food was amazing, with lots of choices, top shelf alcohol. The parties were crazy fun. We are not into the heavy lifestyle activities, there is no pressure, all the guests we met were so welcoming and amazing. The parties at night we great, the disco was always fun after. We are already looking to book a return trip in early 2015.

Another Great Week in Mexico

We spent a wonderful week at Desire in spite of the daily rain. The staff is the best in Mexico and they take care of you throughout the day. I would highly recommend Desire RM to mature couples who want a relaxing and sensual vacation.
