The Royal Sands Resort in Cancun boasts one of the cleanest, most beautiful beaches I’ve seen — soft, spotless sand and a stunning ocean view that make it perfect for relaxation. The room layout is ideal for families of four, offering a comfortable, well-maintained space with good separation between the main bedroom and living area. However, our room was next to a malfunctioning service elevator that constantly moved between floors, which became quite disruptive. Dining options were limited — you’ll find something to eat, but the variety and themed experiences common at other all-inclusive resorts were lacking. The kids club staff were friendly, and my children had fun, though activities were basic and didn’t include visits to the aqua park or outdoor play areas, which was disappointing. You’ll also need reservations to attend shows, an unnecessary inconvenience for a family resort. Additionally, the resort still uses physical cards for room keys and towels instead of modern wristbands or digital systems. Finally, keep in mind that this is a timeshare property, so there’s some sales pressure and fewer spontaneous activities than you’d find at a traditional vacation resort. Overall, the beach and cleanliness are truly exceptional, but dining, entertainment, and modernization could be improved.

Nos gustó mucho el hotel, en el área de la alberca y la playa a los meseros les falta mucho, el único que atendió bien fue Moisés, mis respetos para el :) La concierge que nos atendió al principio muy grosera cuando le dije que no estaba interesada en tener la plática para la posible venta del tiempo compartido, no nos dio room tour y en general no nos explicó bien las cosas. Overall todo bien solo si recomendaría que les den unas clases de servicio al cliente a sus empleados

We stayed in a two bedroom suite and it was incredible. Very clean, spacious, and with stunning views. The resort is beautifully maintained and the grounds are spotless. The pool is a great size and the water park for the kids is a bonus. The pottery by the pool was nice and they always had activities available for both children and adults. The ocean is choppy, which is fun for strong swimmers but not suitable for little ones. The food was excellent and the evening shows were nice. The all inclusive setup is a bit different from other resorts. There are no walk up bars, but many servers come around to take drink orders and even deliver to your room. Service can take a little time, but staff are very friendly and accommodating. It is peaceful, relaxing, and perfect for families looking for a clean, well kept, and comfortable stay.

Worst all-inclusive experience. Been to over 14 different places and hands down, we will never visit here again. Staff is incredibly inattentive and rude from beginning to end. Seemed to be disgruntled and unmotivated to providing a welcoming stay. We've heard them muttering under their breaths multiple times, not just at us but at other guests. Food and entertainment options are limited. Grounds are overall clean, pool and waterslide area are nice. and well maintained though. Too many other options to stay at a place like this.
