My husband and I, along with my cousin stayed at The Royal in Cancun for 10 nights – Dec. 29th – Jan. 8th. My overall big picture opinion = fabulous.

You will pay a bit more for the stay, but it is worth the cost. Food was spectacular. The staff was very well trained in making a person feel at home as well as providing quick service. Room was very clean every time we got back from the pool. We would recommend this place to anyone and will be coming... More

Myself husband plus our couple friends stayed here for 14 nights having read the last two reviews I don't know what some guests want perhaps the staff should shave the gents and bathe the ladies we had a wonderful stay and for those of you that think this level of service is expensive should try a 2 star in London...

The Royal in CanCun is absolutely spectacular ! Outstandingly beautiful, on the beach.. Rooms are lush.. You feel like a queen/king. BUT.. Don't be fooled, not all is as it seems ! I spent 8 nights at this luxurious all inclusive resort, and I paid a small fortune for the privilege . You will never get your money's worth as... More

My husband and another couple just returned from The Royal. This was our first all-inclusive experience so we didn't know what to expect. My star rating should actually reflect a 3.5 - 4.0 for the reasons below: The Good The room was as shown on the website. We did the online check-in 48 hrs prior and that worked well. It... More

The rooms are amazing. Every room faces the ocean. The beach and pool are great. The wind blew hard the entire time we were there, but that is the norm for this time of year. It really doesn't effect much. The beach is great, nice sand, incredible view. The wait staff is amazing. That said, I recommend bringing around $100... More

We were at this hotel because of my daughter's destination wedding and it couldn't have been more perfect. The service and amenities were excellent and we never had to leave the resort for anything. Restaurants, food, coffee shop, 24hr. snacks, spa, pools, jacuzzis, shops, shows and activities were more than anyone could have dreamed of. Everything was beautiful and the... More

We arrived on 2nd January and for the first few days the weather was poor with a strong cool breeze from the NE. The breeze persisted for all but a few days and seems to be a permanent feature. Throughout the holiday there were red flags on the beach and we were thus advised not to swim; "deep paddling" seemed... More

My husband and I were lucky enough to spent the day and 1/2 of our honeymoon in the Presidential Suite at The Royal in Cancun (Jan 20-21st, 2012). Firstly, we will never be able to afford this suite so we took advantage of every aspect of it while we had the chance. This resort is beautiful! We loved every second... More
