My girlfriend and I booked with some friends at the Riu Caribe for 5 days for an inexpensive, relaxing couples getaway. For the money, the Riu Caribe more than delivered. Check-In - Relatively painless, took about 20 minutes and we were given a welcome drink while we waited. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful not only at check-in... more

We travelled with a 15 and 10 girls. The 15 yrs was happy by the pool. The hotel was nice nothing over the top. The lobby bar closed at 22:00 literally they shut the lights down. The 24 hr Sports Bar was a great option. Restaurants: Buffetsx2, Indoor was a nice place, the food was okay nothing changed much from... more

Myself and my partner had a great time at this hotel so it was a shame that on the last day my bracelet got stolen from the hotel room. I had locked this away in the safe everyday except one. I can't really say that the reception handled it well either and it seemed like they couldn't be bothered as... more

We traveled to Mexico for many years and probably to over five different Riu resorts over the years. During the research for this trip we were a bit concerned about the Riu Caribe because of the 3.5 stars rating. Our trip was absolutely fantastic. We traveled with two young children and our friends also had a young child. This hotel... more

Wanted to write a review on this resort. We have been on about 15 all-inclusive vacations throughout Mexico and the Caribbean so we feel we can give a fair review. We travelled Dec. 4-9 with our 2 teenage sons and 10 year old daughter. Our friends also joined us with their older children and a 10 year old girl as... more

My wife and I have stayed at 3 Riu properties in Mexico now and think this one is propobably the best value for money out of all of them. It is situated on the hotel zone, towards down town, however the excellent cheap bus service that covers the whole hotel zone means that despite it being slightly away from the... more

Just got back from the RIU CARIBE with my wife and we had a wonderful time. We stayed for 5 days and 4 nights and booked our trip thru Expedia. The rooms were very clean, the service was great and the food was pretty good for all inclusive. Don't get me wrong, it's not the Ritz Carlton but for the... more

I perused some of the reviews prior to going to the Riu Caribe and must admit that I almost changed hotels. I read about unkempt rooms, bad food and poor service. This turned out to be SO NOT TRUE! First the rooms. Some of them are not the biggest rooms but they are well kept, up to date, ocean viewed... more

I went with my partner for 2 weeks to this resort and it has been such a wonderful experiance, the weather was amazing right up to the last couple of days. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Tipping is a big issue over there. We went out on a bar crawl and in the clubs the toilet assistants were... more
