Jessica, May 2025
Pros (+) Everything! The hotel is amazing and perfect for kiddies because the beach in front of the family cabins are protected by large rocks, making the beach super safe for kids. We had premium all inclusive and didn’t have to worry about a thing. My daughter fell in love with all the staff - thank you so much to Myatt, Rina, Maria, Diya and Razi for always going above and beyond and being so sweet to o...
Cons (-) I am cautious to say that some of the facilities are stuck in the 90s. But, everything fits with the island feel and I feel like if they updated things it would cheapen the whole experience. Everything was clean and working and that’s all that matters. There are a lot of mosquitos though - so wear mosquito repellent at night.

Britta, May 2025
Pros (+) This is a lovely little island with excellent swimming and snorkelling just in front of each bungalow. The resort has a diving school and arranges diving trips to see sea turtles, manta rays and much more. There is also a variety of water sports on offer. There are only two restaurants, but the choice is excellent, as is the quality of the food. The bar regularly offers a variety of life music and...
Cons (-) Alcoholic drinks are extremely expensive and restaurant timings are a bit short and inflexible. So one has to adjust to that that rhythm, which was ok.

Petr, May 2025
Pros (+) It was truly magnificent stay in Royal Island. We loved absolutely everything. Each guest has a standalone beach villa with your own sunbeds. Hotel staff is very humble and friendly. Service level - exceptional. First hotel where I see two times a day room service. Food was different and delicious. A la carte restaurant is highly recommended ( may be pricey if not included in your package) . Those...
Cons (-) There were only few points I’d like to highlight. The hotel is located in a biosphere reserve and I was a bit disappointed to find motorized water sports entertainment ( such as jet ski ) which cause unnecessary noise. However I have to say it didn’t bother that much since it was not that popular) Another point which I also highlighted to the management is a technical water leaking right in a snor...

Cons (-) I didn’t like the lies that some of the earlier guests said in regards to having mice running around the yard!! I didn’t see one cockroach during my stay! The room was spotless and was clean every day! If I can suggest to future guests is to get the premium all inclusive package is very impressive and worth every cent !! and also to make sure that your flights time on arrival is around 13.00 and d...
