One of a kind.

The grounds are beautiful. The resort is clean and it has a Mexican feel to it. It is done in bright colours and very festive. The staff is friendly and helpful. Every Thursday night is Mexican night with music, vendors and it is a lot of fun for everyone young and old.

Quality has declined

We have been to this resort 13 times. It seems the quality has declined significantly over the last year. This used to be a good resort. The Tropical restaurant burnt down two days before we arrived. They set up some tents on the grass and served out there about 5 days after we arrived. We wrote a list of things we experienced to remind us not to book again.

Ok

Food was not very good, rooms were decent, bartenders were inconsistent on making drinks, block 6 where I was is to far away and full of rude Mexicans. Beach was amazing and close distance to Bucerius

Great resort!!

This hotel was awesome! This was the 3rd time at the resort and I enjoyed every minute of it! The staff was very friendly and helpful! Enterinament crew did a great job! I would for sure go back to this hotel!

Great Resort

All amenities required for a fun vacation are provided at the resort. Short walk to Bucerias to experience the local atmosphere. Some improvements for a better experience: Better WiFi access to all parts of the resort, maintenance & cleaning of adjacent Pool/Beach-Bar bathrooms.

Love this resort

Great value for the money, clean, friendly, good food, lots of pool and beach area. Close to small town market with nice friendly shops along the way. Nightly entertainment is excellent. Definitely recommend and will return.

Wonderful time again at the Royal Decameron

We so enjoy coming back to the Royal Decameron near Bucerias. The hotel is large enough to have variety with the 5 better dining options and two buffets. You don't come here for pool and beach service, or a fridge and coffee maker in your room - we don't need that! We come for the easy going atmosphere, the returning guests year after year, the wonderful staff there. The grounds are nice, you are close to walk into Bucerias, they have stretch classes on the beach and bicycles to borrow. The [... read more] beach is excellent with walking available in both directions. There are beach locations for a one hour massage for just $20.00 USD. My only suggestions to the hotel would be, a hook in the public washrooms to hang a towel or bag, better wine and a few more umbrellas for shade at the Adult pool. Otherwise we LOVE it hear and will keep returning back.

Wonderful Resort

Really liked the resort. Had a hard time finding a resort that we could go to for only a 5 day trip as we had time restrictions and most only offer a minimum of 7 days all inclusive. The food was great and staff very friendly. Rooms older but clean. Evening shows very enjoyable and nice 30 min walk into Bucerias.

Hola from Canada

This was our 13th stay at the Royal Decameron Complex. Our home away from home. Rooms, although dated, are clean and comfortable. Staff are so accommodating, friendly and humble. Will be returning.😎

Gem of a resort

The Decameron is a deliteful ,colorful entertaining resort. The grounds are well kept and the staff are friendly and helpful. There are 5 pools, a kids pool an adult only quiet pool, one with entertainment. Lots of dinning options, 2 smorgs and 5 alacart restaurants. NIghtly theater shows that are very good. It is a short walk into the Mexican town of Bucerias which has a market full of all your Mexican souvenirs. This is great Mexican holiday experience.

Good resort, great beach

Beach is located right next to the resort which is awesome. Restaurants are good, but unfortunately you are forced to wake up at 8am to book your dinner reservations each day (or up to 1 day in advance). I wish they had something else in place so the people leaving at 7:30 for excursions can still book dinners. Bars were ok, but their selection wasn't as good as some other resorts I have been to (could not get a mojito). They should have wifi in all the rooms, not just certain common areas.

Still great

Been to this hotel 3 times over the past 15 years and never disappoints. Still great value for the money. Nothing ever feels crowded, staff are wonderful grounds are beautiful. Authentic Mexican feel. Wonderful location

Beautyful resort

Yes the resort was very beautiful well kept and clean the staff was very friendly the food was good and the weather also excellent .The only problem we did not liked that we have to pay paying for the safety box and it was to expensive other vise we liked very much

Very nice resort

It is very beautiful we had a good time staff was nice and help full the only think we did not like that we had to pay $ 30.00 dollar for the safety dep. box Because every other resort is free. We did not liked our room when we got there but the staff was very helpful and the next day we got vat we ask for

Royal decameron section 5

I all nice resort but some areas were very noise and lots of people. section 5 and 6 seemed the nicest. Lots of Canadian from British Columbia which was nice as they seemed very friendly. Would have liked better arrangement for reservations at restaurants than meeting at 8:00am in the morning.

Amazing resort.

This was our 5th time back at Royal Decameron. It always feels like home for us. We love the whole complex. The food is always good with lots to choose from. Staff is always friendly and willing to serve and help with whatever you need. We love the fact that there is a lot of green space, trees, flowers, and the Iguanas!! The beach has great, soft sand. You can walk for miles. We will definitely be back 😊

Love the resort, my favorite

My family have been going there every year for the last four years, we love the staff, grounds the vendors on the beach and all amenities. The only quirk we had noticed this year (Mar. 8-17/2018) was that the food has seemed to take a scale downward, still good but out of a 10 that I normally would give, it has stepped down to about a 6.5-7. Still love that place

Great Resort!

It was our third time there so obviously we really enjoy the resort. The past two times we were there we requested where we'd like to stay and each time we didn't get it. Both times it took us 3 moves to finally get what we wanted, a little disappointing but having 2 weeks vacation it didn't infringe too much on the holiday!

Middle of the road

Grounds and rooms are clean, the food I would say is average. I am a picky eater and didn’t really like it. beach is great, entertainment is budget. Some Staff are amazing while others were rude. This is the second time At this resort with a 6 year gap...definitely not the same as it was

Love this resort, this was our 3rd visit!

The Royal Decameron Complex is a great place to stay with your family. So colourful and bright. The rooms are clean, lots of options for swimming and eating The staff is exceptionally friendly. The beach goes on for miles. The free WiFi is slow and only available in lounge areas. Totally sufficient to upload pix to Facebook and drive your friends nuts. The best thing about this resort is that it is 20 minutes from the PV airport. It is right beside the town of Bucerias, where there is a m [... read more]arket and lots of local restaruants and shopping. You can also grab a cab and go to Sayulita that is about 40 mins away. We took the local bus at the top of the road. 22 mx pesos for the ride one way trip. A cab ride to the Malacon in PV was 320 pesos.
