We rent villas from owners a few times a year because we love staying at the Royal Sands. Since we rent, not own, we were approached by our conceirge to meet at the sales office to discuss the changes that would be "affecting us" in the future. We met with "Liza" who proceeded to tell us that in Oct, all... More

I stayed at the Royal Sands with my teenage son during Spring Break. The temps & humidity were very comfortable, but it was windy and cloudy every day. There was a downpour once a day, but not enough to stop our activities. Actually, it was quite refreshing. We had a two bedroom villa on the 5th floor of the main... More

My Husband and I have just gotten married at the Royal Sands and had 40 guests come along with us. First of all, The resort and the wedding planner did an amazing job organizing the whole event. It was very easy to plan through e-mail and any questions me or any of my family members had were answered extremely quickly.... More

We always stay with Royal Resorts when we go to Cancun. The service is always excellent. The facilities throughout the properties are well maintained and very clean. The beaches are beautiful, great pools and fun activities. Their shuttle takes you to their five sister properties which may be used by all guests staying at any Royal Resort property. More

Just returned from 10 days of paradise at the Royal SAnds. I travel often for work and get to stay in some top notch properties. The Sands rivals the best of them. While its not over the top luxury like a four seasons or Ritz Carlton. It matches them in every otherway. Service, Quality, Cleanliness, and over all accomodations are... More

The pool itself makes this hotel amazing. Seriously I stayed there most of the trip, and the swim up bar and happy hour don't hurt either. The hotel also has a place to book excursions that include everything you need to feel safe and have a fabulous experience. More

We are long time owners at the Royal Resorts and had not stayed at the Sands since the beaches were restored. The beach is great without a big drop off and the palapas plentiful. As always the staff is friendly and professional. We'll definitely return. More

I "HATE" doing reviews but the staff at The Royal Sands deserve mad kudos for making this a very nice vacation. The Resort was very nice and well maintained.We prefer Adult All Inclusive but this Resort is big enough that the senior group had a pool area to ourselves and the younger group had a fun pool for them and...
