I cannot give this property 5 stars as I reserve that rating for the truly extraordinary. However, as far as all-inclusives go, this property is well above par. Buffet at Spice was good, esp for breakfast. Asiana's tepenyaki was very good. My friends ate at Marie Maria's as said it was very good. Tried room service one night - not... More

This was our third trip to the Royal in 4 years. We did buy a membership the first year we were there - no regrets! Besides the beautiful hotel and grounds and amazing beach, what really makes this resort exceptional is the wonderful staff. They are all professional, friendly and seem to enjoy helping to make your stay special. I... More

I never write reviews but after this trip I feel it is a must. We originally booked the Gran Porto Real Playa Del Carmen through Westjet Vacations for 7 nights, on our 2nd night there we were offered a free upgrade to their sister property The Royal Cancun..

I never write reviews for hotels but The Royal deserves one....... My boyfriend and I booked to stay at The Royal after hearing positive reviews on trip advisor and also from our friends. We had seen the odd review about money being robbed from the rooms but we did not think this would happen to us....how wrong were we! Like... More

My mom and I traveled to Cancun for the first time, originally planning on staying at the Gran Caribe. We did stay for one night, but the next day we did the time share tour and ended up getting a free upgrade to the Royal. We were ecstatic! My mom had even messed up our reservation (we needed one more... More
