Imagine a sleepy Mexican village nestled on the soft, sugar-white shores of a sparkling turquoise sea. Look a little closer and discover a five star resort in the Caribbean. Amidst palms and bougainvillea flow two freeform swimming pools with bridges, palm covered islands, and a swim-up pool bar. The resort is located on the ocean side of the Hotel Zone and looks out over Isla Mujeres. The surf is very gentle, making it an ideal choice for families with small children. The La Palapa restaurant is a long-time favorite with Royal Resorts members and guests who enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner in a spectacular setting between the pool and the beach. The menu features tropical soups, salads and Mexican and American favorites. Located in the main building of Club Internacional, and with a beautiful view out over the gardens, El Castillo restaurant is used for special events.
