Overall an excellent experience from check in to departure. Fausto at desk upon arrival a consummate professional. We were upgraded to a huge Junior Suite and cocktails were ordered for us as we were checking in. Room was huge, beds are a little hard but not bad. A/C is adequate although not freezing like back in States. Pools were beautiful... more

My wife and I together with some friends have just returned from the RIU Cancun. We had a fantastic two weeks, without doubt the best holiday we have had. The food was amazing with plenty of choice, whether at the restaurants or the buffet. I have read some reviews where the food has been criticized, some even stating that there... more

I was very disppointed and would consider this hotel to be 2 stars at best. I would have preferred for the hotel to admit that the air conditioning operates on a limited basis opposed to lying that it is broken all the time. The elevators, lobby and restaurants were unbearable!! But this was not the nightmare. Upon departure, I had... more

We were on the 4th floor over looking the side pool (quieter side) and the sea. We were so close we could hear the waves lapping up... more

When we first arrived at this hotel, we thought it was fantastic. The service was excellent, staff were friendly and helpful. The first week we could not find a fault with the hotel at all. Until the second week. The staff work for tips, so if you do not tip them, you get a lesser service. As an English, i... more
