Royal Islander
The Royal Islander was a great place to stay. The rooms were nice. The view was amazing. The beach was walking distance which was great. Liza, our personal concierge, was welcoming and helped with any questions we had.

Great Family Getaway!
We have been with the RI for over 20 years, and still enjoy going back to visit years after year. The resort did an outstanding job in keeping us safe by having many COVID prevention protocols in place, including masks and hand sanitizer in the rooms. As usual, we really enjoyed the fun activities the resort had to offer. The only downside this year was beach erosion due to the hurricane and large amount of seaweed, which impact the enjoyment of the beautiful blue water.
