The hype
Families love the water park and the price, but everyone agrees the rooms are dated and the buffet gets repetitive fast.
Royal Solaris Cancun Resort All Inclusive
$160-250/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want an affordable, unpretentious family all-inclusive on a stunning beach without the chaos of the Party Zone.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Direct access to a massive, less crowded stretch of white sand beach
- Kid-friendly mini water park (Noah's Ark) keeps little ones occupied for hours
- Located at the quiet southern end of the Hotel Zone (Km 20.5), away from the thumping nightclubs
Kurzfassung: A lovable, slightly faded 1980s time capsule that delivers a solid family vacation if you keep your culinary expectations in check.
Bewertet von @travelwithAndrea: I spent my afternoon just spinning around on this terrace—the ocean view at Royal Solaris is honestly unmatched. It’s super windy but in a refreshing way! If you want that perfect turquoise backdrop for your feed without the sandy mess, this spot is it.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
You will likely hear your neighbors through the thin walls, and the 'ocean view' might be partially blocked by palm trees on lower floors.
- You are traveling with kids under 10 who need a water park
- You prefer a relaxed, quiet atmosphere over foam parties and DJs
- You want to be close to the airport (15 min drive)
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.5
- Housekeeping: Consistent and praised. Maids do a great job with towel art and daily refreshing.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean but dated. Grout lines show age, and toilets can be slow to flush.
- Maintenance: The building is old (late 80s). Expect chipped paint, worn furniture, and occasional AC drips.
- Linens & towels: Clean but can feel a bit worn/scratchy compared to luxury resorts.
- Odors & scents: Common tropical mustiness in ground floor rooms; lobby smells fresh.
