"Royal Playa del Carmen is the glitziest resort in Playa del Carmen proper, overpowering the town's hip little hostelries with a full onslaught of opulence, but it is also the priciest." Full review

Guests have a number of dining outlets to choose from, including Maria Marie for French-Mexican fusion, oceanfront Pelicanos for Caribbean dishes and Asiana for Japanese fare of both teppanyaki and sushi.
