First, there are 2 Royal Sands properties. We were in the garden version (phase 2). Phase 1's properties (next door) has all of the amenities and grand entrance. However it was only a few steps away from our entrance and we were told the rooms were similar. Like many of these places, they try to give you everything you need... More

excellent stay at both haciendas and sands!! prefered haciendas for quietness, not fighting for pool chairs, and quality of villas. royal sands was great for beach and ocean, shopping, and easier to get aroud the area without a car. both places provided excellent service and we would go back to either place in a heartbeat.

This review is actually from Jan 10 - but Feb 11 was the oldest date they would let me pick!! My husbands family owns 2 weeks at the Royal Sands. So they have been coming here every year for the past 12 years or so- and I have been going for the last 5 years (except for the last year... More

Via Interval International, my husband and I did an exchange for two weeks in Cancun. We stayed at the Royal Sands for week 2 (12/24-12/31) and Omni for 1 week (12/17-12/24 - see other write up for Omni Hotel and Villas). Both were in studio units. Not having been to Cancun since 1988, I didn't know what to expect but... More

Very good resort. Extremely clean, with very attentive personnel. We really enjoyed our week stay over the holidays. The unit was not as luxurious as others we had stayed at other places in different occasions, but pretty darn good regardless. The bedding was good, but our unit did not have a flat screen TV. Also, I found it surprissing that... More

We have been members of the Sands since it opened and have not given up our week to vacation there except for once when our kids school spring break didn't coincide with our week. Love, love love this place. Always clean, beautiful, classy, friendly, and just top notch. We have friends that have joined us and they are always wanting... More

Had a beachfront unit which was great. We spent alot of time out on the balcony at night and even slept out there a couple hours each night. We only had problems with loud drunk people one evening that were on the beachfront after 11pm and it was promptly dealt with after calling security. The unit was clean and spacious... More

We are owners at the royal sands since it was built in 2000. I do not know why it took me so long to write a review. We do alot of traveling and reason we bought weeks at the sands is because you can always count on a vacation that is 100% satisfactory. The villas, staff, grounds and pool, beach... More
