Is there a dress code at any of the restaurants at the Royal resorts in Cancun? (i.e., does my husband need to pack a suit coat for dinner?)

TIA,
Wendy
 
I think they have given up- but it once was long pants and a collared shirt.
 
Only at El Conquistador in the Royal Mayan - that's a collared shirt and tie, and maybe even jacket, restaurant.

At all of the others, shorts and t-shirts and sandals are fine.
 
There's another place to eat ? ;)

While I agree with you in regards to what people SHOULD wear at El Conquistador, I have seen people in there wearing shorts (both men and women) and I have even seen a lady in there wearing a hoochie mama real short skirt with tube top thing as shirt. It was SOOOOO inappropriate for that restaurant, but they were not turned away. Most guys were wearing resort casual (khakis, nice collared shirt) and most women were wearing a dress or skirt, or a nice outfit.

Presumably referring to El Conquistador:

Sometimes I think the same thing about McDonald's :p

After years of looking longingly in El Conquistador's windows, I can't wait till we can go to a restaurant for grown-ups. :whoopie:
 
WE just got back from 10 days at the Royal Mayan and didn't have any problems with dress code. My hubbie wore dress shorts and a collared knit shirt and was fine!
 
We are going March 5. Can hubby wear khakis and polo? Really can't imagine need for tie, let alone sport coat
 
Goodness yes, khakis and polos are fine everywhere, as are nice shorts and t-shirt.

The only restaurant where I'd definitely say Khakis and either a collared shirt or nice polo would be El Conquistador at the Royal Mayan.

Check royalresorts.com for more info on El Conquistador if you're considering a special dinner out (or in, since you'll be at the resort :) ).

A tie while on vacation??? :hysterical: :hysterical: :hysterical: :hysterical: Are they SERIOUS? In Cancun yet? It gets funnier by the minute.

DH certainly never packs a tie or jacket, but we've seen it. Haven't you noticed people arriving with numerous suitcases and going out each evening quite dressed up?

I guess people go there for different reasons - for me, relaxation is the goal. Bathing suits and shorts, maybe a comfy long casual skirt at night, the key words are casual and comfortable.
 
I know OP asked about Cancun, just just a friendly FYI - There's also now a dress code at Los Murales @ Royal Hacienda.
 
Los Murales

We ate there last night and the sign reads casual-elegant. My wife and I are still trying to decide on that one. I wore what I consider nice belted dress shorts, knit not cotton and a nice collared Cubavera, Tommy Bahama style shirt that I got in Kauai last year. No questions. No strange looks. Wife got a rose after dinner since it was Valentines Day. Still yummy!
 
Boy is my face red. :mad: I wore decent shorts and a nice shirt to both El Conquistador and Los Murales back in October. No one seemed to mind too much. Would certainly not do a tee shirt. The only pair of slacks packed was a pair of jeans.

I promise to do better next time. :rolleyes:
