    Excellent service, friendly and reliable staff, very clean, great location in Cancun (beautiful beach, not in the busy touristic area, supermarket and mall next to the resort, small market inside the resort, great gym (use is included), walking distance from the main mall, good restaurants close by, etc.), excellent view because the room is in a high floor almost to the front of the building, very quiet because is in the section of the resort where there is no music and activities in the pool area. We like the week 25 because is one week before the vacation season at Mexico, thus the resort is not crowded

    Fabulous, safe, beautiful, Aqua ocean water, white sandy Beach front. Friendly helpful staff. Great restaurants on site and nearby. Secure development with 24 hour security. Steps to Ritz Carlton hotel with same views for a value price.

    The Royal Sands is in a great location on the strip, just a short walk away from Plaza Kukulcan which offers luxury shopping as well as a Soriano grocery store. Alternatively, walk the beach in either direction to your heart's content.

    I love the Royal Sands. The location is great with restaurants and La Isla mall close-by. The resort is well maintained and the staff are the friendliest of anywhere in the world I have travelled. The beach here is outstanding with gorgeous views of teal ocean waves.

    The Royal Sands has a fun side and a quiet side. Each are incredibly accessible. The food and service are very good. The facilities are spotless and daily cleaning g service in the rooms: amazing. The oceanfront is absolutely a stunning turquoise! The kids club is loved by our children and the care givers are excellent. Perfect vacation from front desk to tearful leaving.
