Ocean Maya Royale All Inclusive Adults Only

I love the layout of the resort. It's separate buildings and not large high rises. The beach is very nice and clean.

Overall this was a great property and a very nice stay. We visited in late October. We liked that it was all-adult, very relaxing in that way. Also liked the size of the resort-not too big so you weren't hiking long distances to get most places. Given the smaller size, you do have some noise coming over from the "party" pool to the quieter areas, but it wasn't a big deal. The Privilege upgrade is definitely worth it for the access to top shelf liquor, if that's important to you. Also the private beach with a server bringing you buckets of water and drinks/beer/food all day was a huge bonus. Our only two complaints are that the door to our room didn't have a complete seal so mosquitoes were getting in and biting us at night, and there is a constant stream of vendors trying to sell you things on the beach. They are very polite and don't pressure but it's just a constant stream all day long. Seems like that should be a perk of the Privilege upgrade: that you don't have vendors disturbing your vacation time! Food was pretty good compared to other resorts we've stayed at, especially the Blue Moon and Dolce Vita restaurants. Only took in one show while there this time, and it was well done considering. You don't expect Vegas-quality here, and these kids did a fantastic job. Overall staff were great! Very kind and attentive. Would definitely return!

Everything about this resort is awesome, and i did not do privilege. Only thing i did not like was there was no designated smoking areas, so people were smoking everywhere...even on sides of pool. For us nonsmokers, its not always good. We had to move several times because of it. A lot of people have health issues and can't be around it.
