We arrive at The Royal Maya Resort after 9 glorious days in San Pedro, Ambergis Caye, Belize. The Royal Mayan was a pleasant extension to our vacation. Having been recommended by my brother, I expected it to be of very high standard and it was! Traveling with my Canadian Mother-in-Law, my wife and 2 very pumped up teens my expectation... more

I have just returned from a one week stay at the Royal Mayan. I bought it as a "getaway" from Interval International. The cost was $1100.00 for a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom villa. It had a complete kitchen, living room and a huge terrace looking out over the lagoon. Like the previous poster, I was in building H. I had no... more

We just got back from a weeks stay at the Royal Mayan in Cancun, which was done as a timeshare exchange through Interval. While this resort is pretty nice, it in no way is as nice as the timeshare we traded it for. This is part of three Royal properties all next to each other. The Mayan is clearly the... more

This is our second vacation with the royal resorts. Our first stay 3 years ago was at the Royal Sands. The Royal Mayan is the 2nd oldest in the hotel zone but it's within the complex of all 3 royals - the islanders, carribean and mayan, so you can use all the facilities without having to take the bus anywhere.... more

We swapped our timeshare at the Tahiti Village in Las Vegas for the Royal Mayan in Cancun through Interval International. We booked a year in advance and stayed from April 26-May 3. I had done a lot of research and heard mostly good reviews of the Royal Mayan. We booked our airport pick up with Thomas Moore travel and other... more

Loved It!

We booked our vacation using Interval World's website. IW's site rates the Royal Mayan as a five star resort, but most other websites only rate it at a 3.5. I was a little worried about this, but once I got there, I fell in love! We had reciprocity at the other Royal resorts, but still spent most of our time... more

Just returned from a week with my parents in their time-share there and I was somewhat disappointed with my stay at this property. The waiters and bartenders were rude and surly the entire time - and I was tipping 20% consistently for nothing! They never smiled or spoke with us, just took the orders and gave you the goods. You... more

This was our first trip to Cancun we went with 6 others. Thomas More picked us up at the airport and was prompt. We used also them to book some of ours tours and other outings during our 10 days. The Resort was beautiful very clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice and helpful. The beach was the best.... more

We stayed at the Royal Mayan for a week in Feb. 2008. We had five adults and a 20 month old baby. We are not timeshare members and booked directly. It could not have been nicer. We had a 7th floor apartment overlooking the pool and with a direct view of the ocean. The apartment was spacious, very clean, and... more
