We stayed in a two bedroom villa and it was spacious and well cleaned. There is nice patio on the ground floor with a small table and two lounge chairs. Also visited the indoor pool. You have to have a swimming cap to go in the pool. They sell them for 5 Euros or you can buy the a the local Decathlon for 1.50 Euros. There is a grocery store 1 minute away. The people were wonderful and accommodating. We will be back!

This is the second time I have stayed here. And I love it.
The 2 bedrooms , 2 bathrooms, sitting room and full kitchen really work for us.
The transport from the airport was about 25min. Check in was easy but room not available until 3pm. We were still allowed to use facilities and our AI bands worked.

Needs to be improved -
Double check screws on all sunbeds around pool. It broke & I really hurt myself.
Evening Entertainment
Volume of music/microphone around pool to loud.
Soft serve ice cream (kids pool) looks nothing like the pictures. Horrible fake taste and really small portions.
When having a shower it can take a while for the water to drain away.
Booked whole package trip through Expedia but the transfer to/from the hotel caused to much grief.

We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa which was perfect for us with 2 adults and 2 young adults 20 and 17. Both bedrooms were ensuite which gave us all plenty of space. We loved the fact each property had its own terrace with sun lounges as well as living and dining area inside. There was lots of entertainment around the pool and they encouraged everybody to join in. The life guards were great too. All bar and dining staff were very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. Sophia the duty manager was helpful and the greeting we got on arrival was appreciated. The Eden Resort is close to the Old Town so its easy to walk in or get an uber. There is also a shuttle bus that the hotel provide. We had a brilliant holiday and will probably go back to Eden Resort in the future.

Resort is catered to families but not well executed. Food was quite overpriced compared to restaurants in town. Kid club area and toys are quite dirty and run down. Childrens waterpark was great. Pools nice. They had bouncey castles and remote control cars for kids that was quite fun. Overall nice variety of activities in the resort.
Entertainment shows were so bad. bad …the circus show was probably the worst thing I tried to sit theough. Disappointing because the aesthetic and allure of the big circus tent on the grounds is so alluring. They should hire some actual acrobats.
The road going up to the resort and sidewalk leading into Eden is a garbage wasteland. It doesn’t matter if that’s not your property pick it up it’s the first thing people see coming into the resort. They walk by it going into town. Must fix.

Our accommodation was very nice, spacious, well equipped, and very clean. The resort overall is very family-focused, so there is a lot of noise around the family pool and the AquaPlay areas, but there are quiet areas further away, including around the adults pool. Staff were all very friendly and very helpful. Some areas, such as the toddlers' play area, are a bit tired looking and could do with a bit of attention and better equipment. While I was playing with my grandson in the family pool, I badly cut my foot on a grating on the bottom: I reported this to a member of staff, but I don't know whether anything was done about it. There are limited dining facilities, considering that most people are on an all-inclusive deal, but there is a reasonable selection of food on offer and the menu appears to vary from day to day. For those paying, breakfast is good value, but dinner is on the expensive side.
An occasional shuttle bus is available to go into town, but taxis are inexpensive and easily available. It is only a few minutes run into town, where there are numerous restaurants and lovely beaches.

We stayed in a one bedroom apartment with 2 children under 5. This review is our honest opinion. The food is AWFUL for vegans / vegetarians. Very limited dishes in comparison to other resorts we have stayed at. We tried the food everyday but to our dismay we had to resort to uber eats or outside food. The drinks kisok in the reception is not open all day till 6pm. Did not feel all inclusive at all. To get drinks or snacks you have to go to the pools, which you may not want to do if you have kids who just want to jump into the pool. Rooms are not cleaned unless you request it. No cleaning products provided for self cleaning. Entertainment was very disappointing, nothing exciting for children or adults. No scenic views. The resort is in a dead jungle area where you see no beauty. You have to walk a lot to get anywhere in the resort. Our experience overall was disappointing, would not go back.

Great stay at Eden Resort. The food is really good, breakfast in particular. AI option is definitely worth it.
The animation team work tirelessly. The villas are great, we were in a 3 bedroom Villa and it was so spacious and comfortable.
Pool and splash park is great, would recommend for family’s with younger children as the entertainment/ environment is definitely aimed at them.

Great, but....
Pleasant resort. Clean, good facilities, good location (as long as you have a car, although Eden provides a shuttle to town). We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa, which are very nice indeed. It was however too busy. Not enough space at the swimming pool. Clean pool towels were rarely available. Our villa was only cleaned twi e during our stay. Eden is not a purpose build resort. I stead turned into resort after a property project didn't work out. For us it felt unpersonal. Value for money is questionable. There are better options around.

Eden Villas was a perfectly pleasant stay for our family. The 2 bed villa was perfect for our needs and very spacious. We were all inclusive but there was a good kitchen should you wish to cook.
The main pool was refreshing although a little small for the size of resort. It got very busy. Very much aimed at families but definitely for those 10 and under. Not much, if anything for teens.
Did have to get up relatively early to get a sunbed. They say they can only be saved for 30 mins max but I only saw towels removed once (that I saw).
Food and drink are as expected at this level of All Inclusive - whilst different dishes are on offer and in plentiful supply, it all felt very repetitive after a few days. Nice a la.carte that you can book once (but no choice, set menu).
Shuttle bus to beach is OK, but the Eden area is a bit of a trek from drop off and the sea there is very seaweedy. Better to go to the Old Town and go to the beach there.
Shuttle bus is very much needed as resort is far from anything really. Am sure you could walk but tough in August heat. Taxis are cheap though. But don't expect to pop out to a local bar.
Onsite shop is limited and open 9-6.
Entertainment was enthusiastic - not much for teens as I say.
All in all a perfectly decent holiday. Just a few things to be aware of surrounding location etc.

We have just returned from an all-inclusive week's stay at the Eden Resort, and we had such a lovely time! Here are our experiences of the Eden Resort:
1) Accommodation - we stayed in a 2 bedroom villa. Each of the bedrooms was ensuite and there was an additional toilet downstairs. The rooms were all really spacious and felt luxurious! There were a few ants - we called housekeeping who came round with bug spray. It felt like a small price to pay given how fantastic the accommodation was.
2) Food - The selection and quality was brilliant. There were the basics (chicken nuggets, pasta, pizza, chips) for the less adventurous, and a wide range of other foods for those more adventurous. Ranges of salads, fruits, desserts, cheese - we felt very spoilt and ate loads!
3) Pools - the outdoor main pool and kids' splash park were really fun. We didn't go to the adults' pool so can't comment on that. Good amount of loungers, and the activities kept us entertained, especially the water polo! We did try the indoor pool in the spa but found it really too cold to enjoy.
4) Staff - everyone we met was super friendly and helpful. Special shout outs to Oscar, Fouad, Philippa and the lady who rides the unicycle, but there were many others who contributed to making us feel entertained and looked after.
5) Entertainment - The children's activities skew a bit younger (my youngest is 8 and was too old for most of them) but the adults' activities can work for kids too.
