Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomFood choices are limited.
The resort is right on the beach and the water is calm, unlike at other resorts. You can eat on or near the beach too. Lots of free activities like aqua-aerobics and sailing lessons. The friendliest staff. Very comfortable bed and all facilities. Fully equipped kitchen. Ability to visit and eat at sister-resorts. This is a low-key resort, perfect for those who want quiet.

United StatesThis was our second visit to The Royal Cancun. Our first trip was in 2020 as a couple, when we stayed at three different hotels in the Cancun Hotel Zone. This time, we traveled as a family of three with our 2-year-old daughter. I specifically chose The Royal Cancun because it offered the perfect balance of shade from the sun, calm waters, and a more serene atmosphere—ideal for our little one. The hotel is family-friendly, clean, and spacious, with a more relaxed vibe compared to other resorts. The beach is gentle, not too rough, and the surroundings are peaceful, yet we had the option to visit the sister property, The Royal Sands, for when we wanted more active beach with bigger waves and wind. Every moment of our stay was wonderful. We were treated with such care and kindness, and the staff truly went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The cleaning staff, in particular, made our experience effortless, ensuring our trip with a toddler was more relaxing - I was impressed by the fact that every day our milk bottles were cleaned and for a week I didn't have to worry about this daily task! Our room was the perfect size for a family, providing plenty of space for all of us, and the entire hotel is impeccably maintained. I truly enjoyed every second of our stay at The Royal Cancun, and if we return to Cancun in the future, this will definitely be our go-to hotel. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

BermudaAs an all-inclusive resort the food choices were limited and effectively there is only one restaurant on the property.
Entire resort is a non-smoking facility hence a good place for family with young kids. Also, beaches are very shallow allowing plenty of time in water and sand with no worries.

United StatesOnly downside is the beach in front of the resort is weedy. But a couple steps down the beach it is shallow and clear so it didn't really affect our stay. There is no night time activity but that wasn't something f we were looking for.
This resort was perfect for our family trip with 3 adults and 2 teens. The suites were very comfortable and as advertised. The entire resort is spotless. The location is 2 blocks from the ferry and easily accessible for the the bus to take you around town. The buffet was clean and varied from day to day. Food is available 24/7. The staff is welcoming and kind. Loved that they provided complimentary 20 min shuttle to their sister resort (The Royal Sands) and that we were covered by the all inclusive there as well. Bigger pools, better ocean, more eateries.

United StatesOur room was near the main road, so you could hear traffic all night. Even though we had an all-inclusive package we had to sign for all food and drinks, which was a little more inconvenient than other all-inclusive resorts we've stayed at.
One of the main reasons we chose this resort was the villa size (2 bedrooms + kitchen + living area + balcony). We enjoyed all the included sports offerings (we took advantage of tennis, kayaking, paddle boarding, soccer pool, foosball table). Staff was very friendly. Good pool for kids. We liked the smaller size of the resort and having access to their sister resort which was larger with a better beach and a water park for the kids.

United StatesIt was a little noisy at night with the Captain Hook ships and there was not a lot to walk to outside of the resort. However, the shuttle to the other resort / buses allowed us to access other parts of the city easily.
The room was spacious and had a great view. There were several food options between the buffet and menu. We also really liked the ability to use the sister property (Royal Sands) as that had more beach area/waves and the hot tub.

United StatesI can think of anything
It was smaller than other properties which made it less crowded and more relaxed. We loved dining on the beach for all our meals. There were pretty much always beach chairs available so no fighting to get those early in the morning. The room was clean and comfortable and great beach front view. Plenty of activities on site to keep you busy. The staff was friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

The resort was smaller compared to the resorts in the hotel zone. However, it also provided a very wholesome family atmosphere. The kids loved the intimate setting it had to offer. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Our concierge, Carlos, made sure that all our needs during our stay were met. Pedro, the bartender, at the pool bar was very friendly and provided the best mixed drinks the place had to offer.

The resort staff take such pride in keeping all grounds immaculate. It was truly one of the best places my family and i have stayed. The restaurant staff were wonderful and extremely attentive to our needs. Adrian at the Palapa restaurant indeed great to us and our needs.
