Favorite Cancun resort so far. Super clean, fantastic service. Great food and drinks. Although the buffet could be better. Phenomenal beach and pool. (Just wish they would set up the volleyball net for more than 1 hour per day.) Will definitely return.

The food was terrible. I am not a fussy eater. It was the same crap every day. Don't eat the boneless buffalo wings at sidelines. As they are chicken nuggets packed with salt. Leaves a nasty taste in the mouth. The poolside drinks were heavily watered down. ( Their own brands) All premium drinks like Bacardi, Jack Daniels etc you have to pay for in an all inclusive package ?.I have stayed at various hotels and all drinks have always been included. But NOT here. Myself and other guests I spoke to had vomitted from the dodgy cocktails at the bar. This is probably salmonella poisoning down to unhygiene practices when handling dairy mixes. The wine offered at dinner was like a bottle of Sarsons malt vinegar. Absolutely vile. I drank a bit which gave me chronic heart burn. I ordered lunch on 2 occasions at the poolside. And both occasions the staff did not deliver. Maybe it was too much for them. It's a shame . The place has great views, a good pool. But completely let down with the food & Drinks. I have been to Cancun many times. This must be the worst hotel in terms of food & Drink. I would never return to Royal Sands again and any hotel affiliated with them. Void like the corona virus. I had to buy my own drinks from the supermarket and sit in the apartment. The Royal Sands needs to stop reducing costs in terms of Food and Alcoholic beverages in this competitive market. You can see that max profitability is more important to this resort.

The resort itself was clean and well-maintained, which we appreciated. However the food was a serious issue. Unfortunately we experienced food poisoning during our stay, which was extremely concerning and disappointing, it didn’t matter which restaurant or type of food we tried at the resort; the quality was the same.

The beach was great, the property was clean. Main compliant was that the water park area, the tennis/pickleball courts, and the basketball courts were closed due to maintenance. This limited activities for kids and teenagers. They have been shut down for a couple months, so it would’ve been nice to know before the trip.

It's not the Sands I remember under the Royals, most of the staff didn't speak or under stand English, except the people that have been with the Royals before the sale. The food quality wasn't the way we remember, very limited menu, same food day after day. Holiday Inn's will have to step up and get things squared away, before we return, at the price they want.

Great resort overall, but the dining options weren’t great, and most days we couldn’t even get into one of the nicer restaurants. My only other complaint would be that there were several items that required additional money. When I go to an all inclusive, I expect all food and drinks to be included. On the positive, beautiful property, very clean and exceptional service. We had a blast.

The royal Sands was a good resort, but not maybe the best if you’re expecting a variety of food options. The hours were restrictive to when we wanted to enjoy the resort. Honestly, none of the food was to write home about. But the beach was wonderful. The pool facilities were very nice. Our room was clean. There seem to be some communication issues upon check-in, and we were almost not issued the full room that we paid for, but due to our own resourcefulness and not the management we were able to clear that up quickly!
