It's always a pleasure to stay at Royal DeCameron. Security, a variety of dining options, family friendly, etc. However, if you have a light sleep, it'd be a little hard since there's music until about 2 am (at the disco) and people start working very early. Thus, if they'd invest in room isolation, that would be great. Moreover, I don't recommend leaving your valuables without security. Use the safe or carry your lock if you don't want to have a bitter experience.

The beach was nice. The bathroom was old an unsafe. Also in the dining area there 3 big cats running around loose as they pleased. That was disgusting for me. I did not know they would let cats run aorund looking for food in the dining area. This was very unconfortable for me.

I would recommend this property property for families and/or traveling with friends. Check in time is 15:00 hrs (strictily) so it is advisable to book flights accordingly. Transportation from Guayaquil Airport to Punta Centinela is 2 hours and there is Decameron counter at the Airport where you can book transportation. The staff is friendly and willing to help, the A/C of my room did not work and I was moved to a better room. Pool activities are as expected for all inclusive resorts, two pools available and overall good. Beach facilities are really good and beach bar is just on the beach, cocktails are acceptable and beer is also available. I would suggest to improve drinks in the other bars as same cocktail taste really different from the beach bar. Breackfast is really good specially omelettes. The buffest overall is good with different healthy options (grilled vegetables, cuscus, no sugar drinks, etc). Restaurants for dinner are ok, I would suggest the Mediterranean restaurant. Our overall expreience in Roya Decameron Punta Centilena was really enjoyable, as I said I would recommend for short time stays or traveling in family / friends plan.
