The hotel has 3 restaurants, but myself,I only ate at the Lagoon restaurant. Certainly set in a wonderful ambiance, with a waterfall right next to the table. Sadly, I didn'ttry many of the local specialties, but the steak I ordered was done to perfection. In the nearby town there were a number of places to eat, including allmajor fastfood branches. Nando's deserves a special recommendation for a quick bite, as the chicken here is delicious!
In the spa of the hotel (the mandara spa) I had an aromatherapy in Swedish style. The massage itself was excellent, although the music was slightly too upbeat to be truly relaxing.

We stayed here for 6 nights in Febuary of this year (2008) and found it to be very good value for money, and the weather was surprisingly good which was an added bonus.
It was a last minute cheap gettaway I had already booked the flights with Ryanair and not decided where we were going to stay exactly, and then we decided to try lloret. We chose The Royal Beach because it was very resonably priced (£208 for 6 nights all - inclusive for two people) and it had fairly good reviews.
One mistake I did make though was I had booked the hotel and flights seperate and didn't bother with transfers we just got a taxi from Girona airport to resort, this was easy enough to do but cost 50 euros each way. I found out when we got home I could have booked a transfer both ways for about £25 so could have saved quite a bit of money there ...
