The Royal Islander

We have been coming to Cancun since 1994. We have been owners at the Royal Islander since 1996 (week #23) & 1998 (week #24). Royal Resorts definitely knows how to manage resorts and they take excellent care of their owners & guests.

The latest beach restoration project has made the beach better than it ever was before. We come in June each year and was very happy to see how great the beach was last year (June 2010) and still is now!!

And of course the staff - waiters, maids, front desk personnel, concierges, etc. - all are WONDERFUL and many have become close friends over the years.

This is an excellent place to vacation - 5 star - yes indeed - in every way!!!!

I bought a week in the Royal Islander when it opened & bought a consecutive week in the R.C. the following year as a result of the March break time period. I look forward to our annual vacation at our Royal Resort Villas.

Outstanding beach, amenities and comfort for all ages, great staff, bilingual, excellent maid service, you will love vacationing here!

I have been an owner since 2002 and recommend the Islander and the Caribbean to everyone. The service is wonderful, and the resort staff are provided training to speak english. Go there...you will love it!

If you want a family, quiet at night atmosphere, this is the resort for you. Service on the beach and around the pool was good. The staff is very friendly and speak excellent English. Resort is very clean and rooms are in excellent condition. The ocean is VERY rough in this area. No one could get in it the entire week. Also, due to hurricanes the beach area is very small. I never had trouble getting a palapa to sit under the whole week as most people stay by the pool. I loved looking at the beautiful blue ocean and didn't mind not getting in because there was a great breeze and I never felt "hot". I would not recommend this beach for young children (the children's pool is where all the little ones stayed). The shuttle service was great and allowed us to eat dinner at different locations. I suggest Puerto Madero and El Conquistador for fine dining. Captains Cove is good. One night we didn't want to leave the resort so we ate mexican at Paco's Tacos at the resort. It was good for a more casual meal. This is the second time I have stayed at this resort and since I don't care about swimming in the ocean, only looking at it, I would definitely return here.
