    Perfect place to relax and enjoy the sun in couples

    The resort is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. Ideal for couples who want to take some time off to chill. The gym and the SPA are good options too. There is an instructor at the gym and the SPA offers some options for couples. The food is great and so are the drinks. The beach is amazing!

    Honest Review!

    This is our second time visiting, and we plan on coming back every year. This is by far the best all inclusive, adults only resort!! The food is outstanding, views are breathtaking, and service is like royalty. Total relaxation mode, sun up to sun down. The breakfast buffet is to die for!! Some of the honorable mentions we would like to shout out are - Leandro T. (Spices waiter), Karla R. (Spices Hostess), Laura (Reception), Manuel B (Bell Boy), Maria (Store clerk), Daryo (Jewelry), and the morning breakfast crew Veronica, Brenda, Pablo, and Luis! We love every aspect of this place, and couldn't recommend this resort enough. It is no surprise RH received the 4 Diamond award!!! - Sabrsulas

    Great Service and a great value just like visiting old friends who you know well. RH is probably aging better than us!

    We have stayed many times in the last 24 years at the Royal Hideaway and the biggest compliment that we have is that we still enjoy the beautiful grounds with the amazing landscaping. The clean and ccool rooms with many added amenienties such as afternoon cheese and crackers trays, chocolate desserts and a very friendly staff to keep the fridge and ice stocked with our preferences. A quick call to room service every morning for coffee, fresh juice and fruitto start the morning. Plenty of choices for lunch and dinner with an attentive staff. Weather was perfect, the beach was clean and the view was clear to Cozumel. Blue skies, nice breeze, clean towels and clear pool is all one needs for a pleasant time at Royal Hideaway.

    They didn't seem to care if we were there or not!

    Day 1 we had a fridge that didn't work in our room and it was not stocked. A/C in our room did not work well at all. We brought this to the attention of front desk staff first thing on day 2 but nothing was ever done about it at all. We requested to be moved on day 3, nothing was done again. We won't be back.

    Great staff, delicious food, lack luster vibe

    Charley, Brenda and Alonso from the entertainment staff were friendly and fun. The food was delicious, property is super clean, rooms are nice and beds comfortable. Only downside was the music by the pool and at the sports bar in the evenings was booorrrriiinnnggg. They were catering to Americans over the age of 60. When in Mexico, people expect to hear Spanish music. Plus resort is adults only. Very disappointed in the music selection. If you’re looking for a chill environment and want to be in bed by 10/11pm nightly, this is the hotel for you.
