There is nowhere else to go eat. The food there is super expensive tacos are the cheapest food you could buy anywhere and I paid 25 dollars for 3 tacos and 3 quesadillas crazy. The staff members were not the friendliest and the pool was a bit dirty.

In general, everything was excellent, the only bad point is that they do not have a scale in the entire hotel to weigh the suitcases for the plane.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Customer service was poor. The rooms did not reflect what they showed on expedia.and they have a very steep incline to the entrance of the hotel and a golf cart is not provided for someone to come and get you. Also,an ocean view is actually a partial view. if you want an ocean view You must select beach front As well,when we first arrived, there was a very strong overwhelming sweet smell in the vestibule. Would I stay here again. No!

Walking into the lobby was concerning - it smelled of antiseptic cleaner, and was severely outdated. The receptionist, however, was very pleasant and check-in was easy. The room is also outdated, but very clean and the ocean view from the 8th floor was absolutely amazing. The full kitchen is well stocked. The resort grounds are also very clean. The little market in the lobby has a lot of stuff at reasonable prices. We enjoyed the pool and the activity staff were fun and nice. We only at the Cayo Largo restaurant and it was good. The beach is also really nice, equipped with showers to rinse sand/salt off. There is a very steep drop off into the water on the left side of the beach. We stayed in the middle where you could wade into the water for a long ways before it got deep. I liked this place. We were only here for a brief 2-day layover but would happily stay here again for a longer stint.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
If you have bad knees or any walking limitations this isn’t the place to stay. I hate the fact that it is far from the bus lines and hard to get to the main road so that you could explore. They only allow taxis who overcharge on the property. Front desk is rude but the wait staff is amazing. The swim up bar closes way early as do the restaurants. I won’t stay here again. Also, the balcony was a sham, can’t even fit a chair it’s so slim

The property is old and they make you change the room after your first night. It is a timeshare hotel, but they don't tell you until you get moved to new room. Staff do not provide you with the information needed. They do ask you if you need help all the time, but no correct information is provided. Old building and old matress. The hotel needs an upgrade.

I liked that we had access to all royal locations in the area and they were all accessible via a free shuttle that runs every hour. The accommodations exceeded my expectations. I found the food to be very expensive and the folks in our group with dietary restrictions or allergies had a hard time because allergens were not clearly labeled on buffet items.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms and common areas are impeccably clean. There is not much to do on-site. Guests, however, have access to two nearby resorts that offer more activities and restaurant options. It's not luxurious. This is an older yet well-maintained resort. If you are looking for a quiet and low-key stay, the Royal Islander would be a good choice,
