What guests say
8.6 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 3,495 guest reviews
Princess Royale Oceanfront Resort earns strong marks for its unbeatable beachfront location, consistently clean rooms, and spacious suites that work well for families. However, recurring friction points — elevator reliability, a crowded pool, patchy front-desk service, and limited dining options — leave some guests feeling the property doesn't fully justify its price. The overwhelming majority leave satisfied and intend to return, but those seeking a polished, adults-only or premium experience may find gaps.
