The hotel

This very popular adults-only resort is on its own little stretch of paradise, with the pure white flat sands and crystal clear waters of Maroma Beach. This all-suite resort is nestled in carefully manicured gardens with a huge infinity swimming pool at it's heart, offering stunning views of the electric-blue waters of the Caribbean Sea stretching out in front of you. This hotel offers elegance and a wealth of activities that will keep you amused all day. Try a treatment at the spa, tee-off at the nearby golf course, or there are plenty of water sports on offer such as sailing and kayaking.

My wife and I visited Secrets Maroma Beach for our annual summer vacation. We had heard and read great things about the property and all expectations were met. We stayed in the preferred building for the first time and our building concierge Roberto provided great service during our vacation. He even took care of securely wrapping up the tequila bottle we brought home. I am definitely looking forward to seeing Roberto when we come back to Secrets Maroma Beach. The preferred lounge made great drinks, especially our new favorite...BBC! The entertainment team did a great job, especially Jen. This was the first property that had pool basketball setup during the day and Jen made the game fun for everyone. The food was great, the drinks were great, and the service was amazing. I am ready to go back!! Read less

Spent our honeymoon at Secrets Maroma Beach. It exceeded every one of our expectations. The staff, including our concierge Roger, were extremely helpful and generous. The food blew us away, we loved every restaurant. We got a junior king swimout room and loved being able to dip in the pool in the evenings. It was a 10/10 experience all throughout.… Read more

The bed was comfortable, the air conditioning worked great in our room, the shower had good water pressure. Overall, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Our personal concierge (Emmanuel Cabrera/Building 16) was the absolute BEST! He took care of everything. Anything we wanted or needed, he got for us!
