Would recommend to a friend!

The hotel was average. The rooms have no balcony so the seen is not good. Night shows are good, but the theatre is small. ... I got tired of eating breakfast at the same place every morning since its the only place that serves breakfast (las fuentes). The "night life" is about 20-25 minutes away on the bus since it seems like it stops every two minutes. The Grand solaris is better looking n better rooms than the royal (stayed in grand before). The pool area is nice, although I didn't spend much time there. The hotel is good for those who plan to do lost of sight seeing and pretty much just need a place to sleep.

joysgirl2 Nov 18, 2009

This was our 2nd trip to Royal Solaris. 2 years ago, it was a great trip, and awesome hotel, but this time half the resort ... was closed for renovations, the only 2 spa's they have didn't work, only 2 out of 6 restaurants were opened. The food was the same as it was last time in the main restaurant. It was boring as far as we were concerned (meaning the food). We were called the first two mornings at 8:30 a.m., by the attraction reservationist trying to get us to book trips.

This hotel sponsors events at certain clubs/bars each night. Take advantage of it. Otherwise, you'll be paying for expensive cover charges. Also, be prepared for a sales pitch regarding buying a time share in exchange for a massage.

We came to this hotel pursuant to two friends recommendations. Ultimately, we stayed at both the Royal Solaris and the Grand Royal Solaris. Both are wonderful, but the building at the Grand Royal Solaris is newer. We will be returning next year!

The food was average; filling, but nothing great. Hotel workers were very helpful with directions and places to go for good ... shopping prices. We had reserved a king size bed,but after one night on a double sized bed, we requested another room with a larger bed. The front desk accomodated us immediately. We had a good time hanging around the pool.

Less than satisfied

Sekemper Oct 13, 2009

We had an issue with the shuttle. No one at the airport could understand our voucher. 45 minutes later we were picked up ... and taken to the very pushy hotel staff that was interested in selling time share offers. We were then informed 3 of the resterants and a snack bar were closed. The first night on was so loud because we were one floor above the lounge and you could hear everything in the hall. The private jacuzzi was not private. Rooms next to us and rooms above could look in. The quality of food was less than satisfying and the options were disappointing. We chose this resort based on the information provided, but come to find out it was not as advertised. The beach was rough and not easy to walk on. We went to celebrate our anniversary and were quite diappointed. They did bring us a warm bottle of champagne so that was a bright spot. Too bad there was no ice on our floor to chill it, unless we called down to room service and paid $5 for the service fee.

Great Hotel for the price range!

Drew Oct 7, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

I stayed her for a couple of days to celebrate my birthday. The staff were very friendly and the place was definitely a ... bargain for the price. This was my first time getting an all-inclusive package at any hotel and I luvd it. The only thing that annoyed me was the fact that drinks, although unlimited, were always served in a really small cup, I hate going back and forth for refills every time I down a small cup of soda or beer for that matter. Other than that the place is definitely awesome!

It was our 22nd wedding anniversary and just wanted a quick (5 day) gettaway. We spent most of the time lounging by the pool ... enjoying the entertainment and drinks and also swimming in the fantastic ocean waves. We would highly reccomend anyone to visit Cancun in October. The weather was absolutely goergous and we were more than satisfied with the service, food and accomodations at the Royal Solaris.

bus stops just down the street from the hotel. At 7.5 pesos per trip to downtown, (which is about .40 cents) makes going out or shopping much cheaper than using a taxi.

Royal Solaris

first trip to cancun Oct 6, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Hotel is not crowded at all. Food was good just breakfast was the same thing everyday. The rooms are very clean and having ... a lagoon view is really not that bad at all, great sunsets. If your looking for a budget vacation where you do get a lot for your money this is the place, just remember this is not a five star hotel. The location is to the south but just take the bus to the shopping center and clubs its was $.80us per person each way and they run 24 hours a day. There are not a lot of drunk college kids at the Solaris but I think its because its not near the clubs.The pool was very nice and the drinks good. You have to ask for the good stuff they have it but they don't leave it out so you know its there. I was not happy with the [...] rep at the hotel who sold the excursions. He doesn't tell you everything you need to know about where you're going and what to bring and he calls your room everyday to try to see you something else. Book them before you go and read all the details. Xel-Ha is a great place though you should definitely go there for the day.

Loved the swim-up bar and the relaxation of the pool. The daily activities around the pool were entertaining and gave us ... something to do if we wanted. We loved the nightly shows at the resort, we never had to leave!!

Snorkling was great. We enjoyed it 2 years ago, and enjoyed it again this time.

THE CITY, BULLDOGS, COCO BONGO!

--KIM SOZZI, STATEN ISLAND, NNY Nov 13, 2009

Nightlife tip

This hotel sponsors events at certain clubs/bars each night. Take advantage of it. Otherwise, you'll be paying for expensive cover charges. Also, be prepared for a sales pitch regarding buying a time share in exchange for a massage.

The buses are very easy to get around town on. There is a shop in Kukulkan mall, Hacienda T., with good prices for souvenirs and liquor. That recommendation come from one of the bellhops.

short bus ride around town only 65 cents and walk out to the street for taxi easier to bargain with than if you get right in front of hotel.

Shopping tip, Short Drive

If you like to bargain for your shopping. Masrket #28 is the place to go. I got top rated Cohiba cigars for $4 apiece. Ussually $25 at the local shops. You can bargain. However the shop owners are like sharks circling prey. They will sell you to death if you let them.

Rent a car, taxi fares too high. Always bargain with merchants to get lower price.

--soanches, Ventura, CA Sep 27, 2009

Nightlife tip, Short Drive

Coco Bongo was quite an experience for a nightclub atmosphere. I suggest going with the hotel entertainment group though because it will get you a VIP seat in the balcony instead of fighting the crowd on the floor.

Money savers tip

TRAVELTIME: If you8 want fun: Travel in the high season! If you want relaxing vacation: Off season is the BEST. RUINS: Bargain! Don't accept any price offer. The vendors usually drop the price till 20%. Buy nice souveniers at the ruins NOT in the Cancun area: American Prices!!!

--Ly, Washington DC Sep 14, 2009

Recreation/Attractions tip

We also bought a fun day trip to the Isla Mujeres from the agency in the lobby that included transportation from to and from the hotel. Otherwise if you want to go to a clubor shopping, the public buses took us where we needed to go.

--ashleygv, Eugene, OR Sep 9, 2009

Shopping tip, Short Drive

Shop at La Isla. Souvenirs are much more affordable. Quality t-shirts are 3 for 10 and sometimes 4 for 10. It's a short drive by bus which is less than $1 USD.

--Disappointed in Cancun, New Jersey Aug 31, 2009

Money savers tip

Instead of getting a taxi or taking the hotel transportation we took an airport bus for $4USD to downtown Cancun. Then we took the R-1 bus to the hotel zone and got off across the street from our resort. It cost 1.5 pesos per person. It only cost $10 instead of $30 to get to our resort!

--havinhope, Illinois Aug 28, 2009

Dining tip, In Hotel

Most of the food in this hotel had a Mexican flair to it. Although the restaurants at night had more of a worldly selection, breakfast and lunch were more Mexican themed....and DELICIOUS. If you are more of a picky eater, you might not have as much selection. We loved all of the food and trying all of the varities of meat, fish, breads, deserts.

--Erica the Teacher!, Poughkeepsie, NY Aug 27, 2009

plenty of pool activities for the entire family. They even have bicycle tours for free. Aqua aerobics, trivia games...
