My husband and I had a great time. This was the 4th time we visited cancun and the first time at the Riu Caribe. If you are looking for a great vacation for cheap $$ then come to the Riu. We did not expect the hotel to be as great as it was with the little money we paid for... more

This was our first stay at the Riu Caribe. We found the hotel to be a very good value. While checking in, we were given a cold drink which really hit the spot after working our way from the airport in the heat. I had requested a corner room on one of the upper floors via email about a week... more

You get what you pay for! Had an overall positive experience. The only negative part was the food; we have stayed at the Riu Palace, Punta Cana DR and it was the same there (except much more expensive stay). Beautiful presentation, no flavor. Breakfast was the best meal. Alcohol was plenty and we had our fair share. Service was excellent,... more
