I had a wonderful experience at this resort, especially enjoying the spectacular oceanview from my room and the pristine beach area. Although the dining was just okay with a limited brunch selection, the overall vibe felt relaxing and friendly. However, the extra charges for certain activities and the dated room features left some room for improvement.

The staff was consistently pleasant and helpful, especially during check-in and check-out. They even held our bags for us while we waited for our late flight. Rating: 9/10

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the location is amazing with a beautiful beach and great access to activities. However, the service was lacking, and I encountered issues with my room that were frustrating to deal with. The dining options also didn't meet my expectations considering the price. Overall, there's potential, but improvements are needed for a better experience.

We had a lovely stay at the Palau Royal Resort, enjoying the modern and clean facilities. The staff was incredibly helpful, which made our trip even better. However, we were disappointed that the beach was not accessible for swimming, which was a letdown given the beautiful waters around Palau. Additionally, the dining options could use some improvement, especially in terms of quality.
