The location of this resort has everything you need. Many restaurants and bars nearby and the pizza at the Driftwood beach bar is some of the best we had on the island! The rooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable. You won’t be disappointed booking this resort, we had an amazing vacation.

Royal Islander Resort La Plage is a tropical oasis! The grounds is filled with many palm trees, beautiful colorful flowers and so many butterflies and doves that ate right out of my hand.

The guy at guest services sold us on an island tour for $140 that was awful. The driver was rude, didn’t stop at stops clearly on the agenda and ran personal errands during the tour. Worst tour experience ever!

Check-in staff were excellent. Room was sold by yourselves as Ocean view, but was told at check-in it was Pool view. You could not see either as it was ground floor and view blocked by shrubs and trees. The gardens were well maintained, however. Bathrooms tried and lounge sofa's (wicker framed) were VERY comfortable. Lighting could have been brighter. Very noisy in the lounge/dining/kitchen area due to the old aircon AND standalone dehumidifier (which I emptied twice, once the next morning and again the last morning (it was turned it off in-between because of noise and heat it generated). We went back to reception our first morning and spoke to a different person about failed bulbs, no plug in the sink, blocked shower head (1/3 of it not working), the room view description and what we were told vs what we could see, and the people above tipping cig butts over their balcony onto ours. We gave them the issues in writing. That reception person (who we never saw again) just blamed Expedia for incorrect information and didn't want to know what we were told at check-in. They clearly didn't care as NOTHING was fixed either during our stay. WOULD NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN.

It’s a beautiful resort and great location. Close to the Sonesta with a casino. Easy access to little shops, local bars ..however I did find our room to have a very dirty floor and our shower handle broke and we were not able to use or shower. We only stayed one night. Beach is very nice and excellent 5 STARS for watching planes fly over.

Attention le site Hotel.com annonce que vous pouvez régler sur place le séjour aprés l'acompte de réservation hors de manière illégale le règlement a été prélevé sur le compte bancaire occasionnant de graves problèmes..!!:((( Trés mauvaise communication entre l'Hotel et expédia pour une autre chambre dont le séjour avait été réduit pour cause médicale et avertit par mail par nos soins ! Cela a duré prés de 3 jours avec des tensions et une manager qui n'en avait rien à faire ! heureusement qu'une petite réceptionniste du matin nous a aidé !
