We stayed at the Royal Mayan for a week in Feb. 2008. We had five adults and a 20 month old baby. We are not timeshare members and booked directly. It could not have been nicer. We had a 7th floor apartment overlooking the pool and with a direct view of the ocean. The apartment was spacious, very clean, and... more

Loved it!

Have been going to Cancun for several years, but 2007 was the first year at the Royal Mayan. I was not sure how I would feel about it after spending several vacations at VCI and feeling so at home there, but I loved the Mayan! The staff was wonderful, the villa was superb and the overall experience was the stuff... more

Friends offered us a week at this resort and after reading blogs on this site, we decided to go. We were not disappointed! Most especially the staff are very dedicated which goes a long way when vacationing. There was no sense of being rushed in any way, the restaurants are not four star but extremely comfortable. If you want to... more

We booked one week at the Royal Mayan through Interval International. We were not disappointed in the least!! The service was exceptional all around. The entire resort was impeccably clean. We always saw people cleaning, landscaping etc. We dined at La Palapa restaurant several times and found it reasonably priced and the food was great. It was too bad that... more

An older facility, out of the way (which can be good in some ways). After staying in the Melia and Intercontinental this place was clearly not up to those standards. The restaurant by the pool was OK though. The beach is of course very excellent. I have no complaints about the rooms other than they were very early 80s decor.... more

We arrived at the Royal Mayan via exchange on September 15, 2007 and departed on the 22d. The first thing that hits you is the cleanliness of the streets and resort. Some people have a negative view of sanitation and cleanliness when it comes to Mexico or third world countries as a whole. Cancun rivals any American city when it... more

Just returned on Sept 1 from a great stay at the Royal Mayan and can't say enough about the place. We were considering canceling because of Dean but after reading the ongoing blogs here (thanks guys!!) we decided to go. Sure glad we stayed with our plans. The place was about half full so there was plenty of room around... more

We just returned this weekend from the Royal Mayan. We went knowing full well that hurricane Dean was bearing down on the south of Mexico/Belize area. We knew the Royal Resorts had weathered Wilma and Emily very well and were quite sure they would be fine during Dean. We were right. First off, we had a gorgeous penthouse villa with... more
