I spent 8 days at Royal Island on a solo getaway, and it turned out to be one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease. The island is peaceful and breathtakingly beautiful – turquoise waters, soft white sand, and lush greenery all around. My villa was spotless, stylish, and opened right onto the beach – a dream for anyone looking for serenity and privacy. As a solo traveler, I was especially touched by how warm and welcoming the entire team was. I never once felt alone. A very special thank you to my butler, Mark Anthony, who was incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful throughout my stay. He made everything effortless and always made sure I felt comfortable and cared for. The food was another highlight – fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The restaurant and bar staff, special thanks to SHA and Habib, were also exceptional: always friendly, attentive, and genuinely interested in creating a positive experience. Their warm energy made every meal and drink feel personal and enjoyable. Royal Island is not only stunning – it also has heart. It’s the perfect place to reconnect with yourself, recharge, and feel genuinely cared for. I left with a full heart and can’t wait to return.
⬇️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️ We had a wonderful time in Royal Island Hotel! Every guest had a private host. Noble was ours, he was taking care of us and also he was sending day by day useful information about the activities and the weather. The villas were perfectly clean every day, they change towels, beach towels and also we had compliments every day in the room. There is so much variety of food in the restaurant for every taste. But mostly we were so amazed by the staff there! All people were so kind and smiling! The adventures we had like snorkelling were perfectly scheduled and wonderful as well! We can't wait to come back again next year!!!
From arrival to departure, staying at this resort was an unforgettable experience. Since we booked it for our honeymoon, we were delighted to receive cake and champagne as a special treat, thanks to Noble. The massages at spa center were exceptional, the food was extraordinary, and the marine life right in front of our villa was mesmerizing. Snorkeling equipment is provided, so there's no need to bring your own. We encountered a variety of fish, turtles, crabs, and more, all swimming around us. There was so much to see and explore that we couldn’t cover it all in our 10-day stay, so we definitely plan to return. In addition to the mentioned amenities, we had specific preferences for bed mattresses and pillow firmness, and everything here exceeded our expectations. Special thanks to Noble, who managed everything seamlessly, sent regular updates, and assisted with whatever we needed. Remon, responsible for cleaning our room, ensured the mini bar and snacks were always stocked and created beautiful leaf drawings on our bed, brightening our day. Nirval at Raabondhi restaurant is a model waiter, friendly, talkative, and attentive, always with a smile. Kishore at the main restaurant is outstanding; we always aimed to sit at his tables. He welcomed us warmly, remembered our previous orders, and ensured everything was timely. Anyone fortunate enough to be served by these wonderful individuals will have a paradise vacation.
