We have stayed at the Royal Sunset many, many times. Since there is a new review written just after Hurricane Wilma (!), I thought I'd post as well. The Royal Sunset is in perfect condition. It's a smaller hotel, mostly timeshare. The staff is wonderful, and there is little turnover which speaks to a good management. The hotel is kept... more

First let me tell you this was right after the Huricane, so the Beach had washed away. I heard lot's of great things about Cancun unfortuanatly I did not see the draw. I think the resort owners should have closed the resort down and waited till the city was built back up a bit before encouraging people to come and... more

2 weeks at Royal Sunset all inclusive, very disappointing vacation. Beach dangerously rough with high waves. Pool only 3 ft. deep with raised hot tub in the center, very slippery. No steps or handrails to get in. Lounge chairs on beach but not one umbrella available. Advertised activities not available and no one seemed to know why. Rarely had drink... more

I've been to the Royal Sunset about 4 times in the last 10 years and I think the service is better now than it was in the past, but it certainly doesn't compare with 5-star all-inclusives. There are not enough bars for this beach front hotel. There is only a very small lobby bar that is manned only part time... more

I agree the restaurants could be much better but they are descent. I have only stayed in very nice and spacious rooms.... more

Let me premise this by saying that I was very skeptical of accepting our friends invitiation to join them on vacation. They are owners at the Royal Sunset and had been there before but read several reviews on this site and had slowly started forming my own visual of how bad it could be. To be clear, I have no... more

The staff seemed listless and inexperinced in providing good service. We elected to not go with the "all-inclusive" plan which made us the party foul couple. No big deal as there are several great places to eat within walking distance at great savings. But, room was clean and A/C cool, nice ocean views, pool was old and outdated, pictures shown... more

My husband and i stayed at the Sunset Oct.4-9,2007. First off we Booked through Travelcomm/Yourcancunvacation.com. Stay away from them. Never had the time we wanted or the resort we wanted and always wanting more money for something. Ended up working out ok though. Had to do the 90 minute timeshare or we would of had to pay full price for... more

Bought into timeshare. UGH!! RCI should have warned subscribers that timeshare promotion/rental program a fraud - all lies. We stayed on RCI Exchange @ Sunset Lagoon. Liked Sunset Royal more. Was highly rated by RCI. RCI needs to look at the Resort's overall operations. Filed complaint with RCI, etc. More to go. Numerous websites citing hundreds of complaints. Have ruined... more
