Royalton Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa
Royalton Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa is a large beachfront resort in Puerto Morelos with modern buildings, 11 pools, and more than 800 rooms. The property features a private beach area with water sports options, multiple restaurants, a spa, and a casino.
The resort opened in 2015 and reflects the modern development of the Riviera Maya as a tourism destination. Its architecture and amenities follow international hotel standards that have been established in this coastal region over recent decades.
The resort's name references the Riviera Maya, the well-known coastal region south of Cancun. Visitors experience Mexican hospitality through staff interactions and local activities, ranging from traditional cooking classes to boat trips to nearby coral reefs.
The property is about 20 minutes drive from Cancun International Airport, with shuttle and taxi services available. Most restaurants do not require reservations, though some may have wait times, and it is recommended to carry small bills for tipping.
The resort features water slides shaped like animals such as hippos and crocodiles, making it particularly appealing for children. In addition, it has rooms with direct pool access from the terrace, where guests can step straight into the water.
