It was a very nice stay. We really enjoyed the great attentiveness and hospitality provided to us by all members of the staff. We really felt at home and cared for. One suggestion would be to perhaps have smart TVs in the rooms for a better experience when winding down. Other than that an excellent place and we will for sure be coming back!

Nice Property, Average Food
The hotel and the rooms have been renovated. The beach is nice and no issues with availability for chairs. The food is very average, even in the à la carte restaurants. The buffet is very mediocre and to be avoided. I don’t think that the supplement for All Inclusive is worth it. There are many good and inexpensive restaurants within walking distance.

6/10 Good

Could be so much better for the price we paid
Pros: size of rooms. Ease of access to beach and pools. good beds. the water slides are good for small kids. Cons: Food is medium at best and sometimes just bad, and it doesn't matter if you are using the special resturantsor not. no real activities for kids. The extra activity we were reccomend to buy (dolphins in Isla Mujeres) was an 8 hour "trip" for 50 minutes of activity, and the rest of the time on the island felt like we were only there to be used as a walking credit card. though the activity was not by the hotel, it was recommended and coordinated by the staff and I would expect more honesty about it.

Great Spot!
The staff here is so helpful and friendly! I never felt pressured by time share sales and they assisted me in many different ways. The food was great, though we wished the Sidelines Bar was open during the day. Our weather wasn't great, so finding places during heavy rains was challenging. The flag reserve system for Beach and poolside chairs is competitive, but we did get nice spots each day. Transportation to and from the hotel, arranged through Thomas Moore system was great! Luz Hernandez did an exceptional job with our room care.

Everything about the Royal Sands was AMAZING! Starting off with the best staff. We did not encounter one rude staff member, they were all so incredibly kind and helpful. Miguel and Mario at the pool bar made my whole trip! They made me feel special on my birthday! You can tell each worker here loves their job. Our rooms cleanliness was amazing along with the rest of the resort. The food was very good. The beach was amazing and clean. We didn’t have any issues finding beach chairs. Overall everything was amazing and when i come back to Cancun i will be staying with the Royal Sands again!

We were long time owners at their sister resort and were optimistic about our stay at the Sands. Unfortunately it suffered during recent hurricanes, which resulted in multiple maintenance issues. The water park was also closed all week. It was also our first time having to do AI, and the dining options were limited. Reservations at the nicer options were limited for non-owners (we could only reserve same day, which meant there were no openings left). Several days of rain contributed to certain options not being available (e.g., sushi, char hut, etc.). We ended up paying to eat off-site and ordered in from the pizza place not covered by AI. Our only attempt at room service ended up taking over two hours, in part because they claimed we weren't there the first time they tried to deliver. We were waiting on the room the whole time. Had we not called to complain about the wait, I don't think they would have come at all. Most of the staff are wonderful and always have been, but it didn't meet expectations. Too few working meant long waits in between service at the pool and beach. Order more drinks than you need because you don't know how long it will be before they return. And be warned that beer options are limited for AI. For the price, we'd only return if we can rent directly from an owner - and forego AI. In bad weather, you have no option to order drinks during the day. We ended up having to buy our own at the market, which totally defeated the point of having AI.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we didn't leave the property, but had everything we needed right there. Our 2 year old especially appreciated the kids game room with the ball pit. Room service was also very convenient and helped us whwn our kiddo was not in a mood for outings.
