37 Things to Know: Royalton SPLASH Riviera Cancun All Inclusive Resort in Mexico with BIG WATERPARK!
The Royalton SPLASH Riviera Cancun All Inclusive Resort in Mexico has one of the BIGGEST Waterparks in the Caribbean! This new hotel in Mexico just opened in December 2022. We wanted to give you a sneak peak and and review because the Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun is gong to be one of the best all inclusive family resorts in Mexico!
Special thanks to Royalton for working with me to get all of us an EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT & DEAL to the brand new Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun!
🌟 Dates may be extended via Royalton but here are the current details:
👉 BOOK by Apr 22, 2023 to get this deal
👉 But you can STAY any dates from Jan 1st, 2023 to Dec 22, 2023!
👉 Head to themeleashow.com/RoyaltonSpla...
👉 And get an extra 10% off your stay with code MELEASHOW (if the link doesn't add it automatically)
💥 Code & discount only work on the Royalton website through the link above. Will not work on Marriott or any third-party website.
Nightly rates will change based on availability, Holiday dates and low-season vs high-season. So if you want the very best deal, I would book early to get the lowest starting rate and then use that link and code to get an extra 10% off!
Remember, this resort is ALL-INCLUSIVE meaning that your initial rates will be higher than a regular hotel because everything, including your food and alcohol & all the amenities like the Waterpark, are included vs booking at a regular resort that only covers room cost.
BTW: The Royalton SPLASH Riviera Cancun is also an Autograph Collection Hotel through Marriott.

Nice tour!
Great post!
I stayed here last August definitely want to return. One of the best holiday resorts
Thank you, super helpful! I do have a question, did you guys feel unsafe to take ubers there? I read reviews saying taxis at the entrance of the hotel can get hostile if you take private cars to go out. Also, is there construction noise? everywhere?
I’m going there tomorrow
I am going Mexico next year🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for the video! I have a question, was there a basketball court and a volleyball court?
Thank you for the review, how did u find the beachfront? Is it clean and the water is clear enough to swim ?

No, this is not a hotel that has that bright turquoise water. In the video at 3:59 you can get a glimpse of it. And this entire side of Cancun has water like this. If you want Turquoise water, you have to go up to Cancun Row on the part of Mexico that looks like a seven. There are pros and cons to both places geographically.
Does anyone know if the resort is fully open? Especially the water park. 🤞
Love your video, thank you very much! We used to be a regular guest of their sister hotel, the Royalton Riviera Cancun. But the prices for that one have gone up extremely and the quality has gone down considerably. So we are thinking about going here. Do you happen to know whether they have rooms with two separate beds? Or only one king bed and one sofa bed?

It also depends on the time of year and the weather conditions. It is not an exquisite white beach with clear blue sea. But last time we were there, in September 2022, they were doing more than other years to keep the beach as free of seaweed as possible. Let's say that on the whole, the beach was clean enough to walk on (and mind you: I HATE walking through seaweed :) ).
