in a few words: thanks to the Royal Sands I enjoyed the best holidays in many years :-) the service was just great and the staff amazingly friendly. The apartments are nicely equiped and can easily host 4 people (6 provided you get a full apartment, i.e. wo lock-off option). Everything is so clean and the staff will service the... more

We stayed at the Royal Sands from 10/25-11/1 and had a fantasticly relaxing time! We traded our Disney Vacation Club in order to stay at the Sands and it was well worth the trade! I am going to just hit on a few "of note" things and not do a true review. This was probably the cleanest hotel I have... more

Royal Sands is very well located,you can take a public bus to the shopping mall La Isla and be there in five minutes.The beach is still very good,considering many beaches at Cancun were damaged by the hurracaine and never got to be the same again. The hotel is very clean, the villas are very comfortable and practical for families. It... more

My husband and I stayed at the Royal Sands from Sept 27 thru October 4th. 2008. We thought the hotel was beautiful, very well kept, and the staff was extremely helpful, polite, and gracious. We stayed in a 2 bed 2 bath unit, E5715. It had a wonderful full view of the ocean. The balconies are nice and large. Our... more

Just got back from the Royal Sands. We were there from Sept. 6th - 13th. Wonderful place. It was one of the cleanist places I have ever been to. We do not own there. We traded through Interval. They assign a concierge to everyone. Sure they want you to view their place, but if you don't want to, just say... more

My husband along with my two daughter (2 and 4 year old) stayed a week at the Royal Sands. The resort is magnificent and we have never experienced such incredible service before. It was so lovely that it was hard to drag ourselves away from the hotel to go to other places. In fact my husband didn't bother to go... more

My family stayed at Royal Sands August 9th for a week. Arrival at the resort was as expected by reading the reviews, cold bottle of water awaited us as we entered the lobby. We have a 14 y/o son and a daughter 12. We arrived at 1:00 which was before check-in. They gave us a great room 2425, ocean front... more

I exchange our timeshare week with II to stay in Cancun. I originally booked one of the other resorts but when the Royal Sands appeared I quickly changed our booking. We stayed at the Royal Sands Cancun mid May and it was an excellent holiday for a first visit to Cancun. The resort was clean, lots to do and people... more

We have a time share in Disney, and this year exchange it to stay at the Royal Sands. I had always been wary of Mexico due to all the stories about the water. But we had a great time. The people in the hotel were teriffic and work extremely hard to have you enjoy the stay. The restausants on the... more
