This was our ninth trip to the Royal Sands in Cancun. Each year we bring friends or family with us to our time share. We own two weeks now and this year I wanted to stay even longer. We love the fact that when we go back each year we see many familiar faces from previous years. We keep in... more

Great place to stay. Excellent service. They really want you to have a great time. A lot of activities. Very clean. Beautiful.... Great location. The food in all the restaurants and pool bars are very good. more

I was at The Royal Sands with my 2 grown daughters (age 20 and 25) in May 2008. The property is well kept. The weather was beautiful. I was disappointed not so much at the Sands, but more on Cancun - There was barely any sand left in front of the property because of beach erosion. The beach is very... more

We recently returned from another great stay at the Royal Sands. The beach there was in good shape compared to many of the other resorts on the east side of the island and it had a nice area for swimming. The staff gave us excellent service and the food at both the Veranda and the Hacienda Sisal was excellent. The... more

The resort was very nice and service was good. I was very surprised to find out that there are no "extras" available here unless you pay extra. We looked for an ice machine and discovered, on the first day, that even ice is not free. Be prepared to pay for EVERYTHING, even things you would normally expect to be included... more

We had a 1 bedroom in Phase 2 of the Royal Sands, which was perfect! Starting with the check-in process to when we checked out a week later, this timeshare resort was absolutely first class. We took our daughters (5 & 10 years old) and they both just loved it. There was plenty of activities for them to do, but... more

This was our third time to the royal sands. We are marriott vacation owners and are used to a certain level of vacation experience. I would say it is a four star vs. five star experience, but we have enjoyed our weeks there. Our favorite restaurant is a five minute walk to Cenacolo (an italian restaurant) at the Plaza Kukulkan... more

We stayed here as a bonus week from our time share at a discounted rate. I'm pretty picky and we absolutely LOVED this place! It's the #1 place we've ever stayed at, and we travel several times a year. Here's some info about a number of things we experienced while staying at the Royal Sands, and some comments about other... more

Since we banked our Marriott timeshare with Interval, we received a free week and booked at the Royal Sands. It's a lovely resort and great location (close to bus stop and walking distance to Kukuklan Mall). We stayed in a different room than what was shown on the II voucher. Overall, our room wasn't bad. We had the lock off... more
