We,ve been going to this resort for 18 yrs. During that time our maintenance fee has increased 2 1/2 times. The food prices have tripled and the menu has not changed. I would rate the food 1 star out of five. They no longer offer free amenities as they used to. If you are looking for a quiet resort with... More

This was the second time in six years that my husband and I stayed at the Royal Cancun (originally Club International). We actually bought a timeshare here last year. (We also own at Las Haciendas.) This resort is thirty-six years old, but you would never know it. The rooms are well decorated and sparkling clean. The folks at the front... More

Overall, this was a wonderful short vacation. I love this hotel. I have stayed in other all inclusives , but this is the best. The food was great, the place the beautiful,and the entertainment was good. I went for a friends wedding. I wished I would have stayed more than 4 nights...It was delightful.

Every thing at this Resort is almost perfect. Great Grounds,Nice Villas,Amazing Staff,Tranquil Atmosphere and that where it stops! The inability of Senior Management ,mainly in the F&B sector to plan,execute and present a decent,changed Menu seems impossible.The Menu at the Palapa has not changed in 10 years or more.Other than the View of the Gulf and Isla Mujeres its very...

My husband and I have owned a time-share at the Royal Cancun for 15 years. We started with B-Villa and upgraded about five years ago to a C-Villa. The room and view are always fabulous, the maid the last couple of years has actually been below average. The Maintenance fees have tripled since we bought, and the prices on food... More

Overall, my experience with the Royal Cancun is mostly positive (with some minor disappointments / cautionary notes), but let's break it down a bit. This was my families first time going to Cancun (with 2 kids - 10 & 8) and so I really tried to way amenities, location, kids programming, food costs vs all inclusive, and beach. After much... More

An older resort with less luxurious rooms than we are used to seeing, but the service is great, the grounds are immaculate, the location is close enough to get where you want to go, but far enough away to be nice and peaceful. Food and drinks were great. Very nice stay. Only complaint was that the mattress was not up... More

If you want to avoid all the tourist hotels and bar scene in Cancun, this is the place. Located on Kukulcan Boulevard in the Hotel Zone, it's a small resort with two and three bedroom units. It has two pools, a restaurant, limited activities. But the best news is it's quiet and safe. Want to head downtown, walk across the... More
