We've been owners at the Royal Sands for 10 years now and it's a solid vacation spot for families. The property is well maintained and staffed. Everything you need for the week is right on site so if you're not adventurous you can easily have a good time without leaving the property (but I recommend you do go out and... More

Just back from 16 days in paradise. The Royal family specializes in making their guests feel very welcome. It is wonderful to see the same faces year after year. The employees really seem to enjoy their jobs, lots of smiling faces. The villas are very spacious and comfortable and everything is well maintained. You can't beat their large white sand... More

Stayed for a week- we are not time share owners here but my family bought a week from members. It was a fantastic place to stay and recommended. Details as follows: Booked Thomas Moore transportation. Easy to find at the airport, arrived at the hotel quickly. Thomas Moore only serves Royal resorts, so you don't have to worry about stopping...

We are members at the Royal Hcienda, but decided to do an exchange @the royal Sands. I must say it was very good, no real complaints. Good service most of the time,clean,efficient,but for me it lacked something. I felt being on the hotel strip a bit confining and longed for the more openness of the Royal Hacienda. I think it...

Just got back on April 14th from a week in paradise. Our Villa was in phase 2 and on ground floor, ocean front #5047. Our villa was huge and fabulous. Nothing to complain about at all. Our patio was big and led out to a wonderful lawn and then straight to the beach. We watched the waves go in and... More

We just came back from the Royal Sands in Cancun. Another wonderful time. They really know how to treat their guests. We had some fantastic meals in Cancun. Every morning we would have a nice buffet breakfast right on the property at La Veranda. We also had the lunch specials at La Veranda like fish tacos or quesadillas that included... More

We have stayed at all of the Royal Resort properties in Cancun and love The Royal Sands. The beach is gorgeous, the staff is gracious and the location can't be beat. Close to dining (if you choose to dine off site), just a brief walk to the mall and right on the bus line. The take out option from the... More

As we do every year we exchange our time share to try new places. Last year we were at the Beach Palace in Cancun and thought it would be hard to beat. This year there was an opening at the Royal Sands on the week of April 7 to April 14 so we tried it. I can honestly say that... More
