Just spent 5 days at The Royal in Cancun. This is a beautiful place!! But beware...it was not what we were looking for in a vacation. First of all, it is a pretty formal atmosphere. You must be seated at every restaurant...even the buffet, and they place your napkin in your lap for you. All food presented like a work... More

This is one of the best all-inclusive resorts I've stayed at. Spent a week at the Royal Cancun - the resort grounds gorgeous and well maintained. Restaurants offer a variety of choices and great food! Never really got tired of just staying in- received all the pampering I needed. All the suites are beachfront, we stayed in one of their...

We just got back yesterday from Cancun. We stayed next door at the Gran Caribe Real Resort and had access to the The Royal facilities. We ate at the Spice buffett everyday for breakfast and dinner. The manager Juan De La Cruz was exceptional. He went out of his way to get Beef Wellington for my husband when it wasn't... More

Spent two weeks here just over 1 year ago with my wife, and married son. The Cancun hotel zone is situated on the Cancun peninsula where there are 20+ good quality hotels from one end to the other. Due to the fact that you are on a peninsula you have the sea on one side and the lagoon on the... More

We've been in a lot of all-inclusive resorts. The Royal is the best considering view from any room. It's absolutely gorgeous. The resort is very nice (Excellence in Playa Del Carmen is better). It's very clean, spotless. The rooms are beautifull, huge jacuzzi for two. Nice balcony with hammock. The restaurants are nice. Our favorite was Marie Marie. Food was... More

Spent a fabulous week in Cancun! We've stayed in three other resorts in the same area but none of them came close to the "Royal" experience! The food was great, never had a problem with the so called Towel Game at the pools. The staff was wonderful! They all worked so hard to make our stay memorible and feel welcome!... More

My husband and I returned Sat May 19th from a week long (much too short) vacation at The Royal, and I can not express how wonderful it was. This was our 3rd vacation at this resort and the best yet. We stayed the first year they opened and again 2 years ago. We have gone to Cancun for vacations about... More
