We went to get away from the cold weather and had a wonderful time. The Condo's are great, we traveled with 2 teenagers and we each had our own bedrooms so they could sleep away the morning. The pool was not heated and the water was cold. We sunned but could not enjoy the pool. The staff was very helpful.... more

We just returned from a week at the Royal Islander, and had a mixed experience - some good, some not so good, and some downright ugly. THE GOOD: the resort & grounds are beautiful, the pools lovely, and the beach quite nice, although they are not wide due to Wilma, and there are rocks interspersed along the shore. The staff... more

I own a villa at the Islander week 49 but split it up so I could get 2 weeks. Stayed beachfront 2nd floor the first week then in the lockoff portion of my own villa the 2nd week. Beach: When we first arrived there were alot of rocks. Worse than this time last year. We had high winds the beginning... more

We stayed at the Royal islander from Aug 11th to Aug 18th 2007 and we loved this place! We got a 2 bedroom/2 baths, full living room, dining area unit with full kitchen! We were only 2 adults and a 12 year old and this was plenty of space. The best part was that our room was on the 4th... more

Due to the cost of flying on the Saturday after Thanksgivings, we left on Friday the 23rd, at a savings of $250 a ticket. That savings X four travelers, well you do the math. In addition, the planes were ½ to ¾ full and not just on time, but early! We were scheduled to check in at the Royal Islander... more

We stayed at the Royal Islander Nov 10 -17th. It was a family vacation which included our 17, 13 and 5 year old. We decided to use the timeshare and were keeping our fingers crossed that there was enough to keep the kids busy since we were not staying at one of the inclusive resorts. After the first day, we... more

The Royal Islander was fantastic. Words could not describe the service we received as guests of the hotel. Everyone is assigned their very own personal concierge. Ours even came up to the room and helped us plan our week, he even made our reservations for us! The rooms are spacious and clean. The kitchen has all the amenities of home,... more

We were at the Royal Islander Sept 1-8th. It was wonderful, clean, friendly and helpful staff...BUT after spending some time at the Royal Sands, I would book there next time. More going on at that resort. Although....all of the Royal Resorts were very nice. I would say the staff was excellent! If you plan to cook in at all...you may... more

We had a great time at the Royal Islander! All the rooms have excellent ocean views. We never had a problem getting chairs at the pool or beach. The beach has a steep drop off, not great for young children and my teenage son could not skim board here. We used the shuttle service and went to the sister resort,... more
