  • This Royalton Riviera Cancun tour and review is meant to give you a full view of what it's like to stay at the resort, which is now an Autograph Collection property in the Marriott Bonvoy program.
    I paid $249 per night for my stay (it's a Category 7 in the Marriott Bonvoy program), which got me a resort view room to start. Due to my Marriott Bonvoy Titanium status, I was upgraded to the Diamond Club, which got me a massive one-bedorom suite, complete with two full bathrooms and a butler!
    The property is really huge and gorgeous, but I wasn't a fan of the food and beverage during my stay. Book a vacation with us! www.jacksonjetsetting.com/boo...

      Hey Jackson, you seem to be extremely picky in your comments,you expect everything to be 100% perfect but that 100% DOES NOT exist in this world,especially in a pandemic... I suggest that you stay home so you would be 100% satisfied I suspect ???

    Can anyone advise on how to get to Cancun, apparently they charge you a lot for a cab as well as if you want to go out on a tour.
    It seems that they only allow taxis in the resort they work with, therefore the only option is to pay what they ask which is 5 times more expensive than the normal fee.

      They have an online room selector. If you go to the Royalton Riviera Cancun site, hover over the accommodations tab and drop down will show "online room selection". Click it and then enter your reservation info and hit "load my reservation". If there are rooms to choose from, you will be given a choice of rooms. If availability is short, you will receive this message: "Due to limited availability, room selection is not currently available for this room type".

    Just returned, I can not recommend. It was busy, so many people! Sure, all inclusive, but if you wait in line for 10 minutes to get a drink, how great is that? Our room was terrible, the head manager said they were too full to find us a better one. I could give a list of 5 major things wrong with the room, use your imagination. Not clean, several things broken. Shop around, don't go there. We are Marriott members, they didn't care to help us. Like staying in a sub par motel with way too many people.
