Great Time

We had a wonderful time at this resort. The staff were always polite and efficient. Our room was great! Loved the 2 pools, a party one and a quiet one, gave great options depending how you are feeling. The resort was less than 40% capacity, so we never had issues with seats around pool or restaurants. The only downside was the smell from the seaweed, which is in no ones control. There were people cleaning the beach from 6am on doing their absolute best. The food was very good, we loved the Japanese restaurant and the Blue Moon. The Mexican by the pool had delicious lunches. Overall we had a wonderful experience and we will definitely go back.

Wonderful experience

My husband and I spent a fantastic two weeks at this hotel in June 2026. We booked the privilege package which we found great value for money. On arrival, check in with Melissa was quick and smooth. Leidy showed us to our room, checked in with us throughout our stay and responded to WhatsApp messages and requests very quickly. The room was clean and comfortable and housekeeping maintained this and topped up our mini bar throughout our stay.
We used the app to booked dinner reservations and did not have any issue choosing our preferred venue/time to eat as we booked earlier in the day and didnt leave it to the last minute.
The gardens are beautiful and well looked after and we loved seeing the wildlife on our daily walks.
Having done our research, we were aware the resort may be affected by sargassum. As a natural phenomenon, we appreciate the hotel has zero control over it. However, what they did have control over was the number of staff who worked tirelessly every day trying to remove it.
We spent much of our time relaxing by the quiet pool where Jesus and Rusbel looked after us with a warm welcome, cold drinks and a huge smile!
The buffet was fantastic with a wide selection to suit everyone - the ladies on the egg station made an amazing omelette and Sandi, Angel and Gabriella were very welcoming and friendly. Mikes coffee shop serves lovely coffee and pastries too. We had room service a couple of times and the cheese toasties are to die for!
Our favourite was the privilege restaurant, made even more special because Sophia and Ilsa looked after us so well. They were chatty, friendly, helpful and always remembered our favourite food and drinks, not to mention a side of habanero salsa for my husband. Thank you so much girls!
Staff in the sports bar were always helpful and friendly. El Charro food was great and again, the staff couldnt do enough for us - Hilda, Raffael and Peter to name just a few.
My husband hired a jet ski and arranged a diving trip through Margarita, who always stopped to chat when she saw us. My husband loved his dive at Puerto Morellos and the company of Ivan from the dive centre.
Thank you to everyone at the Ocean Maya Royale for a wonderful experience - well definitely be back !

The service was perfect from drinks at the pool or in any of the restaurants. The weather was excellent this time of year, super hot and clear days. Carlos was exceptionally good to us! It was a great choice. Just the right size resort. Friendly service, great drinks.

The hotel experience was not as good as when we were here 2 years ago. Some wait staff left us with empty glasses, not all the food arrived together etc. but Edith in the front lounge bar was awesome, margarita did great. We definitely had a great time either way but sad that the hotel seemed tired. There is some construction going on too.
