All Royal Elite bookings are flexible! Keep in mind that the All-Inclusive fee is SEPARATE - Not Included in this room rate - and paid directly with the hotel upon arrival.

Please message with any other additional questions regarding any specifics or special requests that may be accommodated during booking. Special events like weddings or family retreats are an amazing deal with this option, rather than buying your own memberships or paying full price.

Pricing listed does not include the All-inclusive rate per person per night. This rate does change based on multiple factors including dates, room type and number of adults vs children (children 2 and under are free always, under 12 are 50% of adult rate with two adults staying). Yearly average nightly rate per adult is $100. There is also a small eco tax paid directly to hotel at time of check in, currently $32 USD. A 15% deposit of the total AI fee is required to reserve room with the resort. An email will be sent with a link for the deposit payment and reservation details. The reservation is not complete until the deposit is paid.

Room choice is based on availability. For this reason, it is recommended to book at least 60 days prior to travel.

While this listing is geared specific towards Sandos Playacar, all Sandos properties are available to be booked. If you find something else at one of the other properties on their website (listed above), please inquire and I can accommodate.

2/10 Terrible

Alexander M.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

Deceitful

This was not the place we stayed at even though we booked it through the site. we were informed it was booked out and was forced to pick the caracol location without explanation or a refund. The experience was beyond horrible that we stayed at a different hotel for a night just to avoid the nightmare we endured during the stay. I will never use this platform and will make sure my colleagues do not either.
