We had a terrific time on our week vacation to Riu Caribe and Cancun. The hotel had a great staff - very friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. We like a firm mattress - so the bed worked out very well for us. We enjoyed the food and there was plenty for... more

Went to the Caribe for our honeymoon and really enjoyed it. Let me say upfront that we are young (late 20s) travelers and we are not picky about most things. The hotel was always CLEAN. The staff is always cleaning and they are friendly, dont forget to tip . I know its all inclusive but most of the people that... more

Don't believe some comments that i completely disagree with.... In my opinion, I loved this hotel and its personnel. Went here for our honeymoon and we had a great time. When we checked in, our room was ready and very clean. The view was ok since we got a partial ocean-view looking out the south (towards the other Riu). I... more

The hotel is conveniently located along the hotel zone. The inside of the hotel is beautiful with lush greenery and plants, marble floors, and beautiful decor. The hotel staff are so nice and extremely helpful. The outside is inviting with a large pool, outside covered bar/ eating area overlooking the beach on one side and the pool on the other,... more

My husband and I booked our stay at the Riu based on all of the great ratings on this website. It was horrible! If you are just looking to stay drunk and don't care about a view, comfortable bed, or good tasting food, then I guess this would be an alright place. Reasons we switched hotels from the Riu: 1.... more

Upon arrival at the Riu Caribe no one help us with our bags out of the van and there was a gentleman standing there to, I believe, do just that. He managed to do so for the couple that arrived after us. There was no air conditioning in the lobby, and the air conditioning in the room was like a... more

There are more pluses to this property than minuses. The first call is to an attentive and excellent staff. All the servers and the room cleaners are very nice and attentive. No, they don’t just jump when they see you, but they acknowledge you and will get to you right away. The room cleaners were probably the most friendly we... more

The Riu Caribe, Cancun, is a good place to escape and relax. The all-inclusive resort amenities provide the traveler with an opportunity to literally do nothing but play and rest. For those who want to sit by the pool or ocean with nothing but a book and drink the Riu Caribe offers all that is needed. The entire resort staff... more

Just came back from our trip to the Riu Caribe and I don't have a single complain. In fact, I can't wait to go back. The food and drink was nothing short of excellent. The staff were unbelievably enthusiastic and helpful, never once came across someone with a frown on their face. The sand on the beach was soft, white... more

My wife and I celebrated our 20th anniversary at the Riu Caribe on Aug 4-9th and had previously stayed here about 7 years ago. We have been to several all inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Dominican Republic and this was certainly a very enjoyable vacation. I will offer a few of our honest observations as we use Trip Advisor... more
