We stayed at Royal Vista for one week after being at the Sea Gardens down
the street. What a great resort, right smack on the ocean with a super large
tiki bar and music... a large pool near the ocean, another pool off to the side
and unfortunately a children's pool which never got used even during school
vac. week when we were there. All the kids were in the other pools... and
there's no outside hot tub. (They should rip out the kiddie pool and put in a
hot tub.)
A nice little restaurant on the site open only until 5 or 6 p.m. but great for
lunch by the pool -- twice a wk. the restaur. owner has a BBQ with burgers,
etc. but skip that and get a grilled pastrami or corned beef sandwich on
another day - simply delish!
Our 2 BR suite had a side view of the ocean in 2 areas, and it was nice on
the deck watching the waves roll in. The furniture was light, bright and we
had a nice sized kitchen, eating table... and the LR had a sofa & 2 chairs.
The master BR had a king bed, good-sized bath with a washer & dryer behind
louvre doors (they give you detergent), and a very big shower. The guest BR
had 2 big beds, another large bath with tub & shower. Sometimes I used
that bath to shower while my husband was in the other bath.
No internet service in this resort, a disappointment - but they are talking
about getting it soon. They do have some computers in the lobby. They
could provide better access as to how to get your messages on your suite
phone (it's in the large notebook they give you, instead of by the phone),
and give the correct # to call service people who arrange activities, as the
wrong # is in the notebook.
However, the entire staff is so helpful & friendly, you hate to complain
about little things. We wish we could've had 2 wks. at this resort. There's a
parking garage attached on both sides of the building. There's another
separate building closer to the water which blocks some of your ocean view
from the deck. We did a tour of both buildings and they are so beautiful.
We loved Royal Vista and hope to return again sometime. -Carleen & Ken
