great resort
Other than a mix up with our reservation, this resort was a great experience.
From:long island ny Age:55-64 Travel:1-2 trips/year
September 16, 2019
Great staff, food and facility- We’ll be back
This was our fifth Riviera Maya resort and the best. We liked that it’s smaller than others we’ve stayed at because we like the personal service - felt like friends or family each time we talked to staff. The room was very nice and the bed and linens luxurious. The food quality, presentation and service in the restaurants is the main thing that set this resort apart from others we’ve stayed at. It’s not easy to assemble and keep such a warm and professional staff but they’ve found the magic. We’ll be back!
We stood at the Royal hideaway in playa de carmen. Resort was clean and food was amazing. Adults only ..very quiet and cozy for 2 people that want to get away from the stress in life or to love so more in this beautiful resort. We saw top notch shows and performers too. Everyone here is so nice from the moment you arrive and during your stay. Quality is understatement here . Its excellent in every . Highly recommend this resort. The rooms were amazing too always cleaned. They clean rooms twice a day which was nice. Every building had it's own concierge so dealing with as front desk is none existing. Real happy ! We will be back.
Very nice resort, excellent service,
could have been more restaurant options and availability,
some were closed, disappointed that the dinner theater restaurant
was closed. Also need some more daytime entertainment at the pool.
More music!
Refrigerator in room could have been a lot more cold. just basically
room temperature. Also ice machines should be available on each floor
or somewhere, had to get buckets of ice everyday from room service,
even though room service was very good too!
The service everywhere though was great! everyone that worked there
so friendly.
Just need a few tweeks, also could use a dinner buffet, only available
for breakfast, And really don't think the men in slacks requirement
is necessary, it is a tropical atmosphere, nice shorts and shirts
should be acceptable.
thankyou!

Is the Scuba Diving Shop on the resort or do we have to travel to another area?5 answers
8 years, 105 months ago
Kim
Upon contacting the resort, they advised that there is a Dive Shop near the beach.
MariaCC
It is, right on site. You can rent from your stuff and there is an instructor there as well. The diving is beautiful, affordable, and worth checking out.
genna
There is a scuba shop attached to the resort. They offer multiple diving and snorkeling packages. The diving would be 30-60 minutes (depending on where you dive) from the resort, but you get geared up right at the resort.
OysterBaby
Right their, the dive boat pulls up on the beach in front of the resort.
Tantoes
Scuba Dive shop is on the property.
GregKimS
is there a sand volleyball court3 answers
7 years, 94 months ago
jgallatin
Most resorts do, however, As amenities are subject to change, we are unable to guarantee the resort will have a sand volleyball court.
MariaCC
Yes on the beach.
dboog
Yes, right in front of the dive shop (which, I believe, is shared by two resorts).
MikeRush
are there enough shade umbrellas on beach?7 answers
some of the reviews mention lack of shade on beach. want to know if problem was remedied.
7 years, 93 months ago
mary
Unfortunately, there is no way to guarantee enough umbrellas on the beach as it would depend on the resort's occupancy level at that specific time.
MariaCC
No, it would really need more.
Renaud
There are cabanas and a small tree shaded area between the pool and the ocean. Not really an issue in my opinion.
dboog
Each chaise has a canopy that adjusts for shade.
Benito
We just came back from there and there were plenty of umbrellas on the beach. Not sure if we were going during non-primetime, but we had no problems getting an umbrella.
OysterBaby
Plenty of beach chairs with the tent feature that works great when needing sun or not without moving from your chair. The tent feature is a canvas half moon tent that is pulled up and locked with a plastic pipe. Trees are available but be prepared to move your plastic chair, that requires some work (LOL). Did not see any issues as there was plenty of chairs on a white sand beach each with the tent feature. Did I mention beach service of endless drinks and food.
Tantoes
The Royal Hideaway was one of the only resorts that had shade tents that you could unfold over paired beach lounge chairs if desired. Also, some lounge chairs on the beach at the Royal Hideaway were located in areas shaded by palm trees. Should have no issues with shading from the sun if preferred.
GregKimS
Can you drink the water?7 answers
6 years, 81 months ago
Traci
It is suggested to drink filtered water and also use filtered water to brush your teeth.
MariaCC
Yes.
TXJEWEL
Yes. We were nervous about this too at first based on the comments made by friends who have travelled to Mexico before. We used bottled water to brush teeth but had no problem with the ice and mixed drinks. They constantly provide bottled water upon request around the pool, restaurants, room, etc and we had no problems. Sparking and flat water (or Perrier) available at every meal.
dboog
We did and we feel great.
OleLy
At the resort, yes. All 4 members of our family drank the water and enjoyed drinks with ice cubes without any ill result.
Leolouis
We only drank bottled water
Benito
Yes, we drank both the flat water as well as the sparkling water without an issue.

NYC
While this hotel does have a few bars on site, most visitors head into nearby Playa del Carmen -- for more lively entertainment. There are many bars and nightclubs can be found along 5th Avenue.
BethCC
Yes Playa Del Carmen is 5 min can or bike ride. Or you can take the 2 min walk on the beach or street
Vacationers0987
In town that costs 90 pecos
ambu
Playa Del Carmen is a quick $5 cab ride away. Tons of stuff to do: shopping, restaurants, bars. We had the best time in a decade at Coco Bongo (a disco/show), be sure to get the VIP passes.

How is the beach for swimming? Sandy? Can you snorkel right outside the hotel or how far would you need to go if you were walking?6 answers
5 years, 66 months ago
Donna
Beaches in Riviera Maya are gorgeous and perfect for swimming. You could certainly snorkel if you'd like, but you might not find too much to look at when you do it. We suggest taking a catamaran snorkeling tour when you are down there to fulfill your snorkeling needs. For further information, please call us at 1.800.915.2322.
SamCC
The beach is beautiful for swimming . I didn't see anyone snorkeling .
Cruisecrazy
When we were there the waves were really big and the water was rough. I still went in the water but the current really pulled you and there was no way you could snorkel.
CrawfishGirl
Crystal clear water with white sand bottom. The beach is roped off about 50 yards out from jet skis and water sports activity. A walk up or down the beach about 15 minutes will put you in a snorkel area.
Tantoes
Beach swimming was great. Water was comfortably warm. Sand is white and packed along the ocean edge.
GregKimS
The beach is white sands and gorgeous - very clean. Some were snorkeling but the best snorkeling is across the water in cozumel - take the ferry or do an excursion for $50-80, where they take care of everything.

Yes. Per the resort's official website, there is nightly entertainment. This information can be found here: https://www.occidentalhotels.com/resort/royal-hideaway-playacar/all-inclusive

what does Adult Only really mean?3 answers
I see a lot of caribbean hotels have Adult only advertised, but I do know of a hotel in Jamaica (Hedonism) that is Adult only and I know what goes on there. Is this the same kind of Adult Only hotels advertised?
4 years, 54 months ago
Florida
Adults Only simply means that no children (typically 18 years and under) are allowed on the property. Hedonism is a special property that entices guests more sensual side, but not all resorts are like that. For more information, please call us at 1.800.915.2322.
SamCC
I can say that The Royal Hideaway is a classy resort. No strange things going on there. Adult only for this resort means no one under the age of 18. It was very nice to not have children running around and splashing in the pools. If you want a relaxing trip with no drama this is the resort for you.
AggieMom
We just returned from this resort and the majority of the visitors were older couples (30-70). No college kids hanging around and no Hedonism stuff going on here. Very professional and up-class resort.
OysterBaby
Hedonism is singles and swingers. The adult only means no rug rats. "Couples Only" note could be same gender but you will not notice. Unless your a homophobe. Age is not an issue. Most of the couples are newlyweds or anniversary celebrations.
Tantoes
Absolutely not the same. Not even close. Unfortunately, our shuttle bus dropped people off at Hedo and just what I saw in the parking lot there was disgusting. Royal Hideaway is a classy establishment. The adults only just means no kiddos splashing around in the pool.

Is topless sunbathing allowed on the beach & pool?4 answers
4 years, 54 months ago
Florida
I would say yes on the beach and not sure at the main pools.
We just go back from the Royal and did see several women at the beach that were topless. We did not see any at the main pools but we did not visit any of the smaller pools so I cannot comment on them. I did not see anything posted that said it was or was not allowed. Hope this helps....
Suntan68
There is a section for topless sunbathing on the beach. For more information, you may contact the resort directly or call and speak to one of our Beachologists at 1-800-915-2322.
TimCC
Saw a few topless sunbathers walking the beach. But I don't believe that it is allowed at the pool area.

On the beach, yes. At the pools, no.

Do they have diet Pepsi on site, How is night life during the month of May?4 answers
Tried reaching out to Hotel with other questions without a response! Is this place worth the money?
3 years, 47 months ago
Phila
Hello, Yes they usually have Diet Pepsi but that can be subject to change at any time. The night life remains the same all year around.
bthornton
Entertainment was 3-4 musicians, different each night with one night being '70 music, Latin singers, karaoke. They have a theater for shows but it was closed. Night life is minimal.
Benito
Did not see diet anything. Not a place for night life. A show every other night and music in between at the bar at night. Couples only bring your own mate.
Tantoes
Don't know about the diet pepsi.... we only drank mixed drinks! But regarding your other question, the night life is limited, but there is some.... there's one bar open until 1am, and they have nightly entertainment. Once it was salsa dancing, once it was karaoke, once it was called "rock band" (not my favorite), etc. The other bars close at 11.
It is definitely worth the money - totally luxurious. But not a party hotel.

How late do the pools stay open? I know there isnt a swim up bar at this hotel, but how late will they serve you drinks at the pool/beach?5 answers
Some hotels swim up bars only stay open until 5-6pm, so that's why I'm asking.
2 years, 31 months ago
LGN
Only one bar is open late, as far as how late they will serve drinks at the pool/beach, this is usually until sundown. As hours can vary, please contact the resort directly for the schedule.
JeannieCC
The pool signs say 8 pm and the hot tubs are open until 10 pm, but they won't kick you out if there's 2 or more people in them having a good time.
Ferren
8PM for the main pool is what they say, but I saw people in several of the pools later than that.

6 pm.

Pool tends to close up at sundown, drinks at the Deck Bar keep flowing through dinner until around 11pm.

For a schedule of activities during your dates of travel, please reach out to the resort directly. However Playa del Carmen's 5th Avenue with shops, restaurants & bars are within walking distance.

Scuba clinics
Kayaking

There was really a mixture but I would say 25-60 with most in their early 40's.
FLTOCANCUN
Typical Age Group: 30-65
Some activities at the main pool, but overall, there is not much which is why it is so relaxing. Some nighttime entertainment, but no dancing club or anything like that.
If you are looking for a party, this is not the resort for you.
CD66
I would say 40 and up will enjoy this resort. Great resort for couples looking for a relaxing experience.
