A really great stay for our family of 4. Staff was super helpful and friendly. The beach is very calm, no waves really. The sister resort has larger waves. Pool was nice. We enjoyed visiting Isla Mujeres, the ferry was within walking distance. Reserve a golf cart ahead of time. We used Thomas Moore travel for airport transfer, they were great.

Royal Cancún is a relative smaller resort. There are two restaurants besides the sports bar. It is small for itself, but it also has a sister resort not far called Royal Sands, which is bigger, has more restaurants, bigger swimming pool and more active sea water. Stating Royal Cancún also give us the rights to enjoy everything in Sands except that we can not stay in their rooms, but that is OK. We enjoyed foods, beverages and beach on both sides. Only down side is that there is no shuttle bus to Sands on Friday.

Excellent location, nice amenities, good food for the price point. Not a mega resort which is great if you prefer easier access to amenities without a long walk to reach the pool, restaurants, etc. Good facility for families. We were very pleased with the room and accommodations.

Room was very clean. Beds were comfortable and walk-out to pool was amazing. Great food and drinks. Loved the greenery and Mexico feel of the resort. Ocean was weedy, but jumping in off the pier was great. Could usually find a clear path to enjoy the ocean every day. Highly recommend, hope to be back!

Lovely location, lovely staff, lovely food. Simply a great experience for a family with kids (our kids are less than 10). The resort is quiet and not crazy allowing you to relax, extra safe and give you access to extra amenities at the sister resort the royal sands. This was our second visit there and we recognize a few of the staff indicating that they have good retention of their people. The facility is well maintained, quieter and a good spot to relax. I would recommend the location for anyone looking to slow down and enjoy the Mexican sun,

The beach is very calm and good for kids. Since the resort faces the bay, there is not a problem with sargassum like other areas. The staff is helpful and kind. I would say the food is good, but not great. There are items that are very good and some that are OK. I've read other reviews about hard beds and loud air conditioners and those things were true in our unit. Housekeeping kept our room very clean and the refrigerator was stocked with sodas, beers, and waters every day. I know there is a resort next door that played loud music, but we were on the other side of the resort, so the sound was not as loud. They have snorkels, paddleboards, and kayaks you can use for free. Hacienda Sisal at the Royal Sands is definitely worth a visit. Overall, I would grade it a B.
