“Excelente servicio. Muy limpio. Comida muy rica y deliciosa. Entretenimiento sin fin”
— Gustavo Solis
“If you choose to stay at Riu Tequila, Riu Playacar or Riu Yucatan expect to have a wonderful holiday. Whichever hotel you choose you have access to the other two so you can't go wrong! There are a few diffences between them.Riu Tequila is set back from the beach but there is a shuttle buggy that takes you too and from the beach. The walk is less than 5 minutes. It has large pools and a great kids pool. This is definitely the more party hotel with themed nights every Friday, a late night club that anyone from all 3 hotels can use and a sports bar with multiscreens, pool and fussbal.Playacar has the most modern layout of any of the hotels. Two large pools and a fantastic infinity pool bar that has sun on it all day. It leads straight on to the beach. This was our favourite place for lunch. The seafood was excellent. It is the least busy of the three I'd say and has a relaxing feel alongside great entertainment! Including watching the chef carve an ice sculpture or turn a watermelon into a flower.Yucatan has the most jungle in the grounds which is home to wild howler monkeys. There are all sorts of animals roaming all the hotels but we loved seeing the baby monkeys at Yucatan. There are two lovely pools, a pool bar in one area that leads onto the beach. There's also a seperate pool and bar in a chill area that has hammocks and beds with mattresses. The Theatre is by the main pools whereas the other two have the theater connected to the lobby. It means there is an outside bar at night which is lovely.Every hotel provides you with entertainment all day long. It really is excellent and gets everyone involved (unless you don't want to).The food is exquisite in our opinion. There was so much choice every day at the buffet! I love seafood and this place blew my mind. Lobster, crab, prawns, mussels, Sashimi, sushi and more. A real treat. My partner doesn't like fish at all but he always had an excellent meal too with steak on everday, ham, pork, chicken, turkey and of course mexican! There's also always pizza, burgers, chips pasta etc. On top of this you can use the sit in restaurants including Mexican, Steak and Asian. Excellent friendly staff through the restaurants. We liked the touch of having hand sanitiser in and out of the restaurant and all over the hotel.Drinks were amazing! So much choice. Any cocktail you can think of essentialy. Some local some imported spirits. Made excellently by proffesional friendly staff every time. Tip though bring a reusable straw as Riu have stopped using them across all hotels.Room was lovely and always cleaned to an exceptional standard. All the cleaning staff were very friendly too.Reception staff were always very helpful and accommodating.There is good WiFi coverage throughout the hotel including the beach.Mexico is beautiful and we recommend you go on excursions. Just don't bother buying biodegradable lotion or bug spray for swimming with animals or in the cenote as they make you shower before you get in regardless.The weather was gorgeous! Bring plenty of lotion and good tropical insect repellent. Both are hugely expensive here. It was 28c in the shade most days if you found a sun trap I reckon it was late 30c. Our forecast said 6 days of rain when we got there. In two weeks there were two 30min isolated down pours.Playa del carmen is 30/40mins walk from the hotel. Its hot to walk though! We paid $120 pesos from the far side of town back to our hotel. Or we got a taxi for $60-80 pesos to the edge of playacar and just walked in.Playacar is a beautiful, historic gated community. You feel so safe here it is bliss.This holiday is highly recommended by us!! Thank you to everyone at Riu for a wonderful time.”
