- “The pool was always clean, the rooms were very clean and staff was amazing!!” 15
- “The "butler service" is a scam for sure.” 15
- “Overall, the service was great. Staff was attentive without being overbearing in most cases. Everyone was friendly, and wore masks inside the resort.” 8
- “The Butler that we had handled every reservation for dinner through text messaging and it was super easy.” 15
- “the rooms I would give them a solid 4.5 out of five the linens are gorgeous the beds were super comfortable the rooms are spacious” On camera104:57
- “Everyone was friendly, and wore masks inside the resort. It did seem like the hotel was a bit understaffed. Room service took an hour to get to our room, and one person had to man multiple stations at the buffet.” 8
- “The check-in process was pretty quick and they give you a bracelet for your key.” On camera62:20
- “The Butler that we had handled every reservation for dinner through text messaging and it was super easy. We just showed up when she told us to.” 15
- “we asked the concierge for recommendations. We weren't given any recommendations and were urged to stick with hotel dining instead. Considering we were in the middle of the hotel zone, I'm shocked that we were unable to get any local recommendations (we were looking for local fare, but at the very least, I figured we'd get pointed toward Senor Frogs or Coco-Bongo).” 8
- “so the rating for Hunter's Steakhouse I would say just because of the the things they did for us extra to go over the top eight out of ten if they didn't I would have said seven out of ten but eight out of 10 because of the service there was absolutely phenomenal they they made sure it went out of our way to make sure we're good” On camera189:55
- “The beach here feels easy and well paced rather than overprogrammed. You've got a wide stretch of white sand with comfortable loungers, and the beach service is attentive enough that drinks and light bites come to you without you having to break the flow of your day.” On camera54:55
- “Many recent guests praise the soft sand, attractive water, and beach staff, and several specifically call the beach one of the highlights of the stay.” On camera117:22
- “Food, drink, and staff were great. First time in North America so it was a whole new experience for us (British couple in early/mid 30s)” 15
- “The availability of beds, the drinks, and the service were amazing even without it.” 15
- “a cool extra of Royalton Chic is if you check in early and your room's not ready till four there's a place for you to take a shower to put your stuff down to change clothes that's not always included in Resorts but this one has it so that is a plus” On camera180:21

- “My room was massive and had a gorgeous ocean view with a huge terrace.” 17
- “look at this Oceanfront room when you step out of here this is the breathtaking part the reason I go to the hotel zone is for the beach look how beautiful this place is and the views are absolutely stunning from this Resort” On camera181:01
- “I loved the desk, especially because I had a lot of work to get done.” 17
- “Another small irritation is that there was only one outlet and one USB plug-in between the two beds. There was another outlet by the desk. For two people who each had a phone, laptop and tablet, this made charging our devices at night a neverending rotating game of "who gets the outlets?"” 8
- “The entry-level Luxury Room comes with either a king or two queen beds, a private balcony, and views of either the Caribbean or the Nichupte Lagoon (request lagoon-side for sunsets - they are spectacular).” 7
- “now the rooms you guys know I don't like to spend a lot of time in the rooms I don't spend a lot of time in the rooms when I'm on vacation but this one was beautiful very small room but everything Chic is the right word to explain it I mean it was super modern look at the rainfall shower all the stuff was brand new” On camera180:32
- “The second big standout is the layout this isn't an overwhelming sprawling campus like you find at a lot of all-inclusives it offers just as much as some of the biggest and best all-inclusives but it's in a very small footprint all the rooms and restaurants are in one building it's easy to get from one to another” On camera413:52
- “I also wasn't impressed with the lighting in the bathroom area. It was a bit darker than I would have wanted, which made doing makeup harder. Considering this is the type of hotel that encourages dressing up for dinner and checking out the nightlife the hotel zone has to offer, I would have expected a better setup in the room for getting ready.” 8
- “If you're someone who likes a bit more separation between the bedroom and living space and on a week-l long stay that starts to matter, the luxury suites are worth the step up.” On camera50:57
- “Our room had a balcony that overlooked an outdoor entertainment venue for the hotel. It offered a great view of the sunset and an easy way to listen to live music (including a Queen cover band one of the nights we were there) without braving any crowds.” 8
- “Two couples had major room issues but ended up getting a free night and moved after some negotiating (and signing an NDA lol).” 15
- “I got back up to my room and I found this on my bed I love when housekeeping does little stuff like this it isn't the biggest thing in the world but little things like this really add to the guest experience” On camera411:07
- “The room was nice, though not overly spacious. We had two queen beds, a sofa (that could be pulled out into another bed if you needed it) and a small desk area.” 8
- “I finally made it up to my room and the views from my balcony are spectacular my life will never be the same the color of the ocean is this magical teal and even more than that I have surveyed over the entire property” On camera41:36
Food48 mentions · 16 filmed
- “The Bonvoy earning, premium spirits, outstanding Gourmet Marche buffet, and stunning Level 18 rooftop make it a genuinely good value at $252-750/night.” 7
- “Rooms were huge and comfortable, the food and drink pretty decent, and everything was luxurious without being pretentious.” 17
- “The food was pretty poor so we only ate dinner at the resort once.” 15
- “It was crowded and the seats were uncomfortable. You get a three-course meal: a starter, sushi and a main dish. The starter portions were small, but the dishes themselves were good. The sushi, however, was medicore.” 8
- “Vette_lover77 • 9mo ago My girlfriend 42 and I 48 went in March of this year. We had a great time, we did have the diamond package which i appreciated for the fact that we were able to get into every restaurant we wanted to for dinner, thanks for our butler making our reservations.” 15
- “their chili dog they gave us is an absolute joke I mean this is a joke this food here was not good at all even for a sports bar I'm even for sports bar was terrible look at that chili dog I mean three out of ten at maximum for the sports bar the environment was cool but the food was I would not go back and eat the food there” On camera186:17
- “Whether you want to try out traditional Mexican dishes or grab a slice of pizza, the buffet has you covered. We got tacos, which were delicious.” 8
- “There is no bartender, but you can get the liquor from the bar and drink it. This day, the lounge food selection was not wide due to the buffet was closed, but next day there were many options. Also, their food is pretty good.” On camera61:58
- “Love it! Have been two years in a row now, food is just hit or miss!” 15
- “now I paid for a private dinner on the beach I don't remember it was 175 or 275 it was my anniversary it was my honeymoon it was terrible I would not recommend the dinner on the beach there they bring the food from the restaurants upstairs it took like an hour and a half to get our first entree and it was freezing cold all the food was terrible had Lobster it was tough it wasn't good” On camera188:15
- “⭐ Hacienda Mexican restaurant was fantastic” 17
- “⭐ Buffet was huge, varied, and high quality” 17
- “The food was hit or miss, which isn't uncommon at all-inclusive resorts.” 8
- “breakfast outstanding they make fresh Crepes there's like tons of different options like I said I've stayed at a lot of all-inclusive resorts and as far as I'm concerned I do feel like they do a good job of offering a lot of variety” On camera106:39
- “I need coffee daily to function, and the Scoops Gelato and Caffe Lounge did not disappoint. While the room had a coffeemaker and you could order basic coffee and cream at the buffet, I was able to get an iced coffee with coconut at Scoops.” 8
- “Chopstick Asian Fusion Cuisine - I ate here one night. The food was fine but not great.” 17
- “Food and drink. Better variety than average, though not every venue lands equally well.” On camera114:02
- “And the music played during the performance was very loud. It should come as no surprise that the Mexican restaurant was hands down the best. The overall vibe was more relaxed (no belly dance performances mid-meal), and the food was excellent.” 8
- “that dinner was incredible one of the best all-inclusive dinners I've had top five maybe even top one or two when I take into account everything from its location up there on a rooftop it's lighting it's style it's Ambiance the service was five star the menu was awesome the food quality was excellent everything came together in a tremendous manner” On camera42:36
- “Royalton Chic does not seem to be a resort people choose purely for destination-level gastronomy, but it does appear to offer enough variety and enough solid meals that food is more often a strength than a disappointment.” On camera115:51
- “The minibar just had water bottles and a few canned sodas and the coffee station was lacking.” 8
- “so they actually comp that for me and sent me up to Hunter Steakhouse and let me pick off anything I wanted on the menu gave me special service gave me the the GM of the restaurant there went and waited on us personally and told us he was going to fix the problem for us” On camera188:42
- “I had breakfast at the Diamond Club Lounge that is the exclusive Lounge for Diamond Club guest it is the nicest Diamond Club I've seen up until this point now it's small borderline claustrophobic I almost had to be sedated but it was the most delicious food I've tasted out of any all-inclusive Lounge” On camera47:20
- “Food, drink, and staff were great. First time in North America so it was a whole new experience for us (British couple in early/mid 30s)” 15
- “Here is a sentence you rarely read in an all-inclusive review: the buffet is actually the best restaurant on the property. Gourmet Marche is repeatedly cited by guests as exceptional for an all-inclusive - wide variety, fresh local ingredients, and consistent quality across all three meals.” 7
- “The Gourmet Marche buffet will carry you - it is legitimately one of the best all-inclusive buffets in Cancun.” 7
- “Have been two years in a row now, food is just hit or miss!” 15
- “We did order room service for breakfast one morning. The coffee was disappointing, and none of the food was that great. It took an hour to get to us, and my omelet and my friend's french toast was cold by the time the food arrived.” 8
- “Getting restaurant reservations was tough with a big group, but we liked the Mexican place, and the Italian spot.” 15
- “If you appreciate a proper sit-down dinner, Hunter Steakhouse is the one to book first. You've got open kitchen grilling, a solid wine list, and an on-site sumelier, giving it the feel of a genuine dining experience, not just another stop on the plan.” On camera52:56
- “this Italian restaurant literally has the best lasagna I've ever had in my entire life even to this point at any Resort any restaurant any place in the world I don't know what it was but this lasagna was literally the best lasagna I've ever had in my entire life I've never had one better it was made from scratch and it just had so much flavor” On camera187:34
- “It was crowded and the seats were uncomfortable. You get a three-course meal: a starter, sushi and a main dish. The starter portions were small, but the dishes themselves were good.” 8
- “The remaining restaurants (Zen, Agave, SCORE, Beach Club Grill) are adequate but not memorable.” 7
- “Something to note across the board at almost every restaurant was the chairs. With the exception of the buffet, every restaurant had incredibly small chairs. I'm a plus-sized traveler, which made dining uncomfortable no matter where we went.” 8
- “The buffet was surprisingly good and changed every day.” 15
- “Regional Mexican cuisine with gluten-free options, overlooking the lagoon. The setting is lovely, especially at sunset. The food is fine - not as refined as what you would find at Secrets The Vine's Mexican restaurant, but competent.” 7
- “first of all the food I cannot believe how good the food is here it is delicious it's delectable it's amazing it's some of the best food I've had at any all-inclusive” On camera413:42
- “now breakfast look at this view from breakfast this is wild rated a little bit higher just because the view when you got out there was just so incredible this is why you come to the hotel Zone it is for the views but it was a very normal breakfast think of continental breakfast” On camera184:37
- “Skip the Asian restaurant, we fell for the sushi and regretted it.” 15
- “The teppanyaki show is entertaining but the food itself falls into the "decent for all-inclusive" category rather than genuinely impressive. The sushi is serviceable. Go for the experience, not with high culinary expectations.” 7
- “The food is fine - not as refined as what you would find at Secrets The Vine's Mexican restaurant, but competent. The lagoon views at dusk make up for what the kitchen lacks in ambition.” 7
- “The overall vibe was more relaxed (no belly dance performances mid-meal), and the food was excellent. We ordered mango margaritas, a melted cheese and chorizo dish (which tasted as delicious as it sounds) and tacos. I had Baja fish tacos while my friend had el pastor tacos - both were great.” 8
- “Elements Gourmet Buffet - an amazing buffet for an all-inclusive. Huge, lots of options for all meals. Indoor and outdoor seating. One of the highlights of the hotel for sure.” 17
- “La Hacienda Mexican Cuisine - I loved this little Mexican spot. I ate several dinners here because the food was just incredible (SO much better than the Mexican restaurant at the higher-priced Marriott Cancun I had just stayed in).” 17
- “Overall, the dining lineup offers solid variety without falling into repetition, and anyone familiar with all-inclusives where choices feel limited after a few days will notice the difference.” On camera54:05
- “so I went to the Italian place garazi it doesn't look like much in fact it's really depressing on the inside it's one small rectangle but looks could be deceiving the food was delicious I had some lasagna that was incredible and I had a pizza that was so spicy it turned my entire face bright red” On camera49:46
- “and the food was pretty good the tenderloin was borderline restaurant quality well if that restaurant is an Outback Steakhouse” On camera46:19
- “The food to me was a little above average but if you don't like your dinner at a restaurant you can always go to the buffet that had plenty of options.” 15

- “Overall, the food was quite solid, especially considering the hotel's price point.” 17
- “Gourmet Mare is the main buffet. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And it's genuinely one of the strongest buffets you'll find at this price point in Cancun.” On camera52:28
- “the plating and stuff here is just not going to be over the top it's a five-star Resort and with five star prices and it is not I would say five-star presentation five-star food five star stuff but it's still an awesome place to go” On camera189:44
- “Overall, the food was quite solid, especially considering the hotel's price point.Do note that most of the restaurants require advance reservations. You can do it through the hotel's app, but I struggled to get the app to work.” 17
- “The Bonvoy earning, premium spirits, outstanding Gourmet Marche buffet, and stunning Level 18 rooftop make it a genuinely good value at $252-750/night.” 7
- “All taxes and fees were included (with the exception of a small environmental tax that added less than $3 total to the overall bill), which means no pesky resort fee tacked on at checkout.” 8
- “I especially felt like the hotel was fantastic value for money. The Royalton CHIC frequently runs low-season promotions, and I snagged one at $232/per night including all fees. I thought that was a great deal by Cancun standards, considering it included all my food and drinks.” 17
- “The resort was great for the price, and the staff were awesome.” 15
Noise9 mentions · 2 filmed
- “One caveat: ocean-view rooms facing the main pool will pick up music and DJ noise well into the evening.” 7
- “Considering this is a party resort, I was worried about noise in my room. I am a light sleeper and also work during the day. But honestly, it was very quiet in my 9th floor room.” 17
- “Hated it. It was loud everywhere. Large groups screaming at breakfast at 8am. You couldn't get away.” 15
- “I experienced one major, glaring issue at this resort: the slooooooow elevators. Wait times were absurdly long. During peak dinner hours, it wasn't uncommon to wait 10-15 minutes for an elevator.” 17
- “Get an ocean view room for sure, there's loud construction on the street side all day.” 15
- “But the music and lights from down below made it hard to go to sleep without closing the curtains - and the ever-changing colorful lights still seeped in through the cracks between the two curtains.” 8
- “Noise concerns and elevator frustrations appear often enough in reviews that they should be taken seriously, not dismissed as one-off grumbling.” On camera119:21
- “if that's the version of vacation you were looking for you should probably look somewhere else.. We slept perfectly fine and no noise kept us up all night so I guess the rooms are pretty insulated.” 15
- “One of the strengths here is the layout. Bars and lounges are dotted throughout the grounds, including indoor venues for live music or karaoke, giving you the freedom to drift between lively moments, and quieter corners.” On camera56:28

- “we went up to Hunter Steakhouse and the environment The Experience again the scenery you're seeing downtown Cancun with the Lagoon in the background it's beautiful it's like going to any city that was on the beach and eating it in a beautiful place like that” On camera189:02
- “We slept perfectly fine and no noise kept us up all night so I guess the rooms are pretty insulated. It's a five minute walk to Cocoa bongo, a few authentic restaurants, and some shops.” 15
- “The resort location is just 9 miles southwest of Cancun's International Airport and convenient to a vast network of underground rivers and eco-adventure sports including mountain biking, scuba diving, trekking, bird watching, deep sea fishing, archaeological sites, world renowned golfing as well as some of the best shopping, nightlife and gourmet dining the area has to offer.” 12
- “The Royalton CHIC Cancun has a stellar location on the southern edge of Punta Cancun, which is my #1 recommended area to stay in Cancun.” 17

- “The rooms and suites. Stylish, view-focused, and better when the category matches your expectations.” On camera112:00
- “The ocean view rooms are completely stunning but some have their quirks.” 15
- “no matter what view you choose literally you're going to have a gorgeous view I mean cuz being on the sunset side you get to watch the Sunset and it's like a bay right there so you still get to like look over a body of water it's not like you're just looking at a bunch of nothing” On camera105:23
Bathroom8 mentions · 1 filmed
- “The bathroom had a double vanity but only outlets on one side (which was annoying when it came time to do our hair for dinner).” 8
- “And the shower area was a little grimey, though otherwise, the room was clean.” 17
- “The shower was spacious and came with two shower heads - a rain shower head and a detachable wall-mounted hand-held shower head.” 8
- “I love the setup of the bathroom the separation they have like the water closet where the toilet is in a separate room from the shower” On camera105:06
- “The hand-held shower head had much better water pressure. There were some areas I thought could have been cleaned better - the hand-held shower head had some soap scum buildup and some of the nooks and crannies of the shower weren't thoroughly clean.” 8
- “The bathroom was pretty good.” 17
- “The DreamBed mattress system that Royalton installs across its properties is legitimately comfortable, and the rain shower is a welcome upgrade over the standard all-inclusive showerhead.” 7
- “I didn't have the best shower pressure (the rain shower head was much too large for the pressure, so I ended up just using the hand shower).” 17
