Me and my husband went to Cancun on the 15th Aug for 10 nights. Flight: We booked with Thomson. To my horror we got to Gatwick airport and we soon realised that it was a First Choice flight.

We holidayed in Mexico the year before last (2007) at another Riu property in nearby Playacar, which we... more

I stayed at the RIU Cancun Aug 19-23 with 3 other girlfriends. Check was good. As soon as we arrived, someone took our bags. I had requested 2 adjacent rooms with double beds in both and we got that on the 13th floor facing the ocean. It was beautiful. No real complaints about the rooms. I was a little worried... more
