First time visiting Mexico and wasn’t sure what to expect given that I’d never done something all-inclusive like this before (traveled abroad many times elsewhere) - Had an absolute blast with 3 friends of mine (26-27yrs old). Beach is a 5 min walk from Riu Requila and The resort was in a huge gated area along with the other resorts which makes you feel safe. We reserved transportation to and from the airport through Cancun Shuttle and had zero issues. Facilities and rooms were clean, food was good, staff was excellent all around and did everything to ensure we had a great time. We stayed in our bubble of resorts the entire time, but there’s plenty to do if you want to do a tour of some kind off-site. Very balanced mix of young, middle aged and older travelers. We went during peak spring break time and I was concerned the place would be littered with college kids - not the case. Whether you like to drink & socialize @ the pool all day long with people you don’t know (guilty as charged), relax in quiet, or go explore, this was a great place to be for a week.

Most of the resort staff were fairly friendly, but they only provided assistance when asked—they didn’t offer help proactively. One major disappointment was that, despite calling well in advance and emailing to request a room close to the main areas due to both girls’ challenges ( having autism) with regulation, we were given a room far away. This made it extremely difficult when they became dysregulated, as walking back to the room to calm them down was a struggle. The food was average, but the service from one pool server, Daniel, was exceptional. The entertainment was also excellent, and the pools were great, with plenty of daily activities. However, accessing the beach was inconvenient since it was at the resort across the street. Guests either had to walk or take a cart that ran every 15 minutes, driven by a worker who seemed quite miserable. There was no system in place, so even if you were waiting with kids, others would cut in line, causing longer wait times. If you chose to walk, the cart driver would drive right up behind you without honking and would scowl at you. The resort offered activities and entertainment throughout the day and especially in the evenings, which was a highlight. However, the late-night food options were lacking. When we arrived at 9 PM, the only available food was leftovers from the pool earlier that day, which was disappointing.

Great resort, service, entertainment, beach, pools. Our 15 time staying at a Riu property. Weve been staying at either Riu Palace Riviera Maya or Riu Tequila since 2016 and we have never been disappointed with our stay. While the club level isnt as full service as the Palace is, we find the club level hotels have more families and things going on for kids of all ages to enjoy. We enjoy the Palace level when we are traveling without our child. Since we were travelling with our 11 year old we chose the club level. We liked the rooms and evening entertainment at Tequila. Especially the neon and white parties on fridays. We spent our daytimes across the street at the pool and beach club for Riu Yucatan since Tequila isnt ocean front. Guests at Tequila can freely visit the Riu Yucatan and Riu Playacar and use their pools and beach areas etc. The walk wasnt bad but theres a golf cart shuttle all day as well. -Our room was great, we had a family villa which was a king size bed and a pull out couch. We had a small balcony with a hanger for wet clothes. Shower and toilet were a good size. Cleaning staff did a great job every day. -Food was good. Lots of options every day at the buffets, although the Palace Level has more variety day to day. We stick to the buffets for breakfast lunch and dinner. -Entertainment staff did a wonderful job keeping things all day and night. Coconut party, foam party, circus show were our favs -All staff were friendly and kind as always!!

Need to ban smoking at the resort!!

Basically the resort is very nice. We loved where our room was located and the food choices were good. However, my biggest disappointment and complaint (we spoke to the management several times about this) was the smoking that was allowed in the entrances to the resort. Coming from the rooms, there is only one way to enter the resort. There were many signs posted for NO SMOKING and there was even special area set aside out of the mainstream for the smokers. However, EVERY time we were trying to enter the main facility, there was a pack of smokers standing there blocking the entrance smoking. Also, the smoke drifted into the main lobby and made it unusable. We heard several other patrons complaining about the smoking. I have a sever allergy to smoke and this was very distressing. I couldn't go anywhere without my inhaler for fear of an asthma attack due to the smokers. When we brought this to the attention of the management, their response was "well they are outside and the smokers have right too!" This was unacceptable! Nothing was ever done to ask them to move or to deter the smokers from smoking anywhere they wanted to. We will never return to a RIU property because of this issue.
