There are several small and smaller lakes in the western part of Röylä, such as Häkläjärvi, Sorvalampi, Hepolampi and Igelträsk. The eastern part of the narrow Lake Pitkäjärvi of Velskola also belongs to Röylä where only the northwestern part of Pitkäjärvi belongs to Velskola; the peninsulas protruding east from the northwest shore extend to the Röylä area according to the official district division.
There is one Swedish-language school in Röylä, Rödskogs skola. Right next to the school is Snettans Farm. In addition, Röylä has several horse farms with riding schools. In the southern part of Röylä is Hovgård, originally founded as an officer's mansion. Röylän ja Bodomin Seudun Omakotiyhdistys ry, founded in 1971, operates in the region of Pohjois-Espoo.
