Good Morning, We were able to order breakfast to the room. As diamond club we had a slightly larger menu than those who were not diamond club. Thank you for watching and if you haven't already, please don't forget to hit that subscribe button. Happy Vacationing.

Thank you for your question. During our stay, not all slides were open yet. However, the ones that were seemed safe to me as there were many kids and adults having fun and I am not aware of any issues. If something occurred after the remaining slides were installed, I would not know. Hopefully someone here can further reply. If you haven't already, please don't forget to like and subscribe.

Thank you so much for watching. During our stay, they were placing off-shore barriers to keep the beaches clear of seaweed. It's been awhile since our stay, but these barriers have been successful elsewhere. Hope this helps. If you haven't already, please don't forget to hit that subscribe button. Happy Vacationing.

Nice review,added information is good…I just booked for our annual family vacation to this resort this morning Feb 8,2024, for April…coming back to Mexico after a long absence, Punta Cana is my favourites, sure has changed from the reviews I watched. Hope to have fun in the sun. 👍

Thank you for watching and for the feedback. The season will definitely determine the beach conditions, although they were working to install a barrier to prevent the seaweed from reaching the beach. There were also cleanup crews working diligently until this barrier was completed. As for the water, I was pleased. It was not as clear as some waters at other coastal destinations, but far more clear than many others. Thank you again. If you haven't already, please do not forget to hit that subscribe button.

@@permanentnomads743thanks

Hello and thank you for watching. From our experience it can be between $30 - $70 per person, per night. When we visited, you could choose Diamond Club with or without a butler and this is the reason for the cost difference.

Thank you for watching. If you did not select Diamond Club, be sure to let them know your status. If you did select Diamond Club, it may not make much of a difference, but still let them know as there is a specific wristband so staff knows your status.

@@permanentnomads743 we didn’t book Diamond so I will mention at the desk. Btw, we have been to Royalton Varadero about 4 times and if you go to Cuba I recommend it.

Your status will get you access to Diamond Club amenities such as Diamond Club Pool, Lounge, etc. We are hoping to make it there. 2024 will have us in the Maldives, Fiji, Singapore, and Thailand. Maybe 2025 we will get there.

⁠@@permanentnomads743what will you be reviewing in Singapore? Marina Bay Sand? Nice hotel with its infinity pool, worth a visit

Thank you so much for watching. You will need to be open water certified or take a dive certification course there. I dove with Pro Dive International - Westin Cozumel and the cost was $143/USD. This included two tank dives ($104), park fees ($5), and equipment rental ($34). This price included a 10% discount for booking online. I hope this information helps.

Thank you for watching. They have some "top shelf" but not the best of the best. To get the higher quality, specifically ask for that brand or they will make the drink with the cheapest. This has been true for us at many all-inclusive resorts and cruises. I hope this helps some. I wish I could give more details, but drink selections at resorts can often be different from one season to another and distributor restrictions.

Thank you so much for watching. Unfortunately I am not able to find an answer to your question. We did do a small search online, but unable to find any results. I would recommend contacting the property directly. Thank you again for watching and happy vacationing.

Thank you again for watching. During our time at this resort, there was not a designated disco or night club. Not sure if this has changed since. There were frequent shows outside by the pool that had lots of dancing and other events during the evenings, but they didn't stay open too late. Thanks again and happy vacationing.

Thank you so much for watching. For us personally, while there was some good benefits, I don't think we would use Diamond again, with one exception. If we were going during the busiest time of year and wanted to ensure some set dinner times, then I would do it simply for the reservation aspect. Hope I was able to answer your question and that you have an amazing vacation. If you haven't already done so, please don't forget to hit that subscribe button. Thank you again.

@@permanentnomads743I think it’s worth it for its convenience, private beach area where u don’t need to reserve a lounger ,private area pool too, ease of getting a table in all the restaurants. For a couple, I would upgrade for $980 US extra for a week. I just booked the Royalton Splash today for our annual family vacation for April 2024 n can only afford to upgrade to Ocean view,can’t upgrade to the Diamond for 9 people. Hope to have fun in the sun with my 4 grandchildren n that’s the highlight of my annual vacation , just to see them having fun n laughing…😂😂😂

Thank you for watching. We personally like Royalton Riviera (Hideaway) better at that time. The food was better quality (even though many of the restaurants were the same), there were a lot more activities for adults, more pool options, and we did have the option to escape from the kids if it got overwhelming. Splash was still brand new at the time, so they may have improved in some areas, but the resort layout was much more geared to kids and way less options for pools leaving it feel very crowded. I hope this information and helps and you have an amazing vacation. Thank you again.

Hello and thank you for watching. We did, there were several Titanium Elite who had been upgraded. Here is the link that shows Elite level upgrades www.royaltonresorts.com/frequently-asked-questions Please keep in mind that Titanium gets you access to Diamond Club areas, but does not get you a Diamond Club Suite or Butler Service.

Hello and thank you for watching.

Thank you so much for watching and the kind words. I want to make sure I am understanding correctly, did you mean between Royalton Riviera Splash and Royalton Riviera (which is next door), as there is only one Splash in this area? If this is what you meant, we much preferred Royalton Riviera. While we didn't travel with kids, I did show the kids area in my review video. Our reasons for preferring Royalton Riviera was the food, the service, and the activities. I also believe the small children splash area would be more geared towards younger children (my personal opinion). With that said, Royalton Splash should be fully operational and out of their "new status" and functioning well. Summary - we will be going back to Royalton Riviera again. Keep in mind, you can also get a day pass at the other resort. You can just walk down the beach, purchase the day pass and enjoy both. Unfortunately, I do not recall how much the day pass is. Hope this helps and Happy Vacationing. Lastly, if you haven't already, please remember to click that subscribe button.

Thank you so much for watching! In our opinion Royalton Riviera would meet your needs. Teen boys would love less young kids running around and food is superior. Thanks again

Why what’s the difference

Good Afternoon, I would be curious to hear your story. We stayed as both non-Diamond and as Diamond and had an amazing experience during both stays. Thank you for watching and we hope your future travels are enjoyable.

We are very sad to hear that you did not have a pleasant experience. Hopefully all of these issues are being addressed by the resort. We hope all your future travels are nothing but happiness.
