What a place! Food is consistently amazing and a special shout out to the entertainment team - the best I've ever experienced. Rooms are a little dated but I can live with that.

Now this is just as god as the riu palace however where the riu palace is quiet and relaxing this one is more of a party resort theres a club and a 24 hr bar where they serve fruts and burgers .

Experience excellent service, a fantastic white sand beach in Cancun, Mexico. Also don’t miss the treatments at their world-class Renova Spa , which also has a gym , sauna , and Jacuzzi .

Kyle Goulet

Beautiful. The liquor is low end, but it's free and no one is complaining. I wish the bar tenders knew a little more as to what to do with the liquor . But, it's such a great place. 5 stars in my mind.

Awesome customer service.. Had bugs in our room.. Quickly exterminated.. And very helpful to book reservations outside of resort . Also Note: can only book the a la carte 2 days in advance! :(

Stephanie Cheng

Awesome services by all the staff . Room is clean , and ocean view is perfect! Thanks =)

Martha Lutz

Don't worry if you can't get a dinner reservation - just show up at the first seating time (6:30 or 7 depending on season), and you will prob get seated after around 10min.

Bryan Pedersen

Awesome spot. One of the best in Cancun. Go for the seafood paella

David Sowersby

This is our 6th time back to CUN and 2nd at this hotel . Love it! We have stayed in all three RIUs en cancun... All great :)

Agustin Nieves

Just perfect. Best attention ever

Collin Mc

Request your mixed drinks with Bacardi, Appleton or Captain Morgan rum , they will taste better.

Rachel M

Diego in the pool bar is adorable, as are Adrian, Emily, and Carina on the entertainment staff :) xoxo

Rafael Astrana

Not only in hotel but anywhere in Mexico giving tips returns you a super customer treatment, large doses, extra towels, anything that you may need.

Have lunch at the italian restaurant in the lobby. Order the steak . Absolutely delicious.

Adrian Fong

Location, food and staff !

Jeremy Pac

Excellent Hotel , top notch service, highly recommend!

Hkling

Buy the wifi card.. You can use it throughout the resort . Not limited to your room as they say

Gustavo B.

The Room balcony has a terrible view ! It has a concrete wall of the size of a person!!

Bram Cool

Give the bartenders a tip and you will be treated as a king

Matt Kamhi

Beautiful resort , great place to experience Cancun

Ryan Michaelsen

WiFi is only available in lobby so be sure you grab a drink before catching up on Facebook.

Marcia Jacobi

The people who work here are FANTASTIC!! They keep me coming back every time I can!!!

Kyle O'Connor

Use the farmacia in the mall across the street (Plaza Caracol) for cheaper sunscreen than in the Hotel 's tienda

Courtney Herzog

Ask for el Hefe at the pool bar . Aka furtunato. He is the best!

Eric S.

Leave a $20 and a note to swap out for Smirnoff.

Joss Domínguez

The recepcionists are great! LOL

Terry

All rooms have a liquor dispenser

David Carroll

The lobby is the only place to get WiFi . However, Riu staff will bring you drinks though!

Kenny

The farmacia has learned and adapted. I could only save like 2$ in sunblock

Jari Salomaa

Brazilian restaurant has some magic if you ask

Joss Domínguez

Just the best!

Paul Lin

tips? avoid like the plague. they will call security on you after you enquire about prices. potential customer = harassed. nice!

Randy Allman

Tip Frank the pool bartender . It pays off. :)

Zee Whicker

The 'Mexican' restaurant Tio Pepe is not good!!

Maika Van der borst

As a 5* this place is scruffy with poor service.

El mejor hotel ❤️😊 modernizado y si duermes mucho no te quedas sin comer. El sol esta a la orden del día. Tiene 2 piscinas y un jacuzzi . Los meseros son geniales y todo el personal .

Jair Ceron

excelente servicio, comida abundante y deliciosa, los tragos no dejan de fluir... un hotel mas para adultos que para familias .. muy bueno para conocer gente de todas partes del mundo...

Samir Rifai

Uno de los mejores resorts en todo Cancún, la playa y el mar son excelentes, comida muy variada para todos los gustos, hay un bar de deportes 24h donde comes y hay juegos . El mejor trago: "Goodbye".

Edward

La comida es excelente, todo el tiempo te estan ofreciendo bebidas a tu gusto, la playa esta muy bien cuidada solo bajen temprano para tomar el sol, ya que mas tarde el sol no da sobre la playa

Renata Campos

Hotel muito bom all inclusive com vista espetacular para o mar do Caribe, comida deliciosa no buffet , só não agradou o restaurante japonês . Ponto neg: academia ruim pequena e alg aparelhos quebrados.

Héctor Ávalos

El hotel es hermoso, te atienden muy bien, lo mejor es la comida, puedes comer a la hora que sea :) todo es genial

Ehecatl Lorenzo Perez

las instalaciones de primera el servicio en bueno pero no excelente y la ubicacion magnifica sin duda alguna lo recomiendo

Renata Campos

Dica: o pessoal guarda as melhores cadeiras perto da piscina com vista para o mar, onde bate o sol, antes mesmo do amanhecer. Aproveite o espaço com hidromassagens que fica meio escondido do resto.

Greice De Rossi Gava

O atendimento é ótimo, os restaurantes , as piscinas e a praia na frente do hotel . Pontos a melhorar: ter wifi liberado nos quartos (atualmente o wifi só é livre no saguão e piscina ) e o spa (caro )!

Ellen Vasconcelos

Atendimento excelente com funcionários muito simpáticos e prestativos. Localização top, em frente a um shopping e do lado das melhores baladas de Cancun. Comida farta e muito boa! Volto com certeza!

Flávia Fenerich De Moraes Ferrari

Excelente resort da rede RIU. All inclusive de qualidade, atendimento ótimo, localizado perto de shopping e das baladas . Vale a pena conhecer este paraíso!!! Alegria, si si si! Problemas, no no no!!!!
