This was our second stay at the Riu Caribe for a family vacation Dec. 31 to Jan 8. The weather was cloudy and mid 70's. Pool was beautiful but got colder as the week went on. Pool drink service was excellent by Ysreal and beach service was just as good by Benjamin. Pizza was very good. Beach had a lot... More

For a European wanting a winter break this is a great hotel to stay and chill. Good standards set by this hotel chain and the demands of Americans means you are going to get good service. Well laid out grounds, excellent food, and a decent beach makes it a good place to stay. Nice little touches like Turtle pools in... More

I traveled to Riu Caribe in Cancun for the second time in August 2011, with my husband and two kids ages 10 and 6. This must be a really busy time to travel because the airport was pretty busy, but we got through it. Be aware of the timeshare people at the airport, they flat out lie and tell you... More

We had our honeymoon here for 2 weeks, from the end of June. The flight was very long, we upgraded & were happy that we had after we heard the groans from the other passengers as we disembarked! We loved the hotel, the staff are beautiful people, so patient. We also loved the area, although avoid anywhere that looks like... More

We just got back from Riu Caribe this week. Upon our arrival we saw live music and people in 20's and 30's drinking, playing cards, and sitting with laptops in the Wifi area. We are two girls aged 25 and 27. Staff were friendly and the room was not spectacular, but was spotless with large bathroom. Nice beach, crowded but... More

Me and my girlfriend stayed here in sept 2011, at the time half of the hotel was getting renovated so since we've been they can only have improved this hotel! Our room was the 4th floor, a two minute wait on a lift took you to your floor (only impatient people would complain about this), rooms were cleaned EVERY day,... More

Service at check in was very efficient and friendly. Our room was ready by 1:30. Our room was newly remodeled and just beautiful, very clean. The bed was really hard but not uncomfortable. Bathroom was nice, no problems. Bars were fine, they did have some bottles of top shelf liquor, but you had to ask or you got the Mexican... More

DO NOT USE THE ATM MACHINE IN THE HOTEL LOBBY! I am embarassed to admit, I didn't notice my card was gone until the next day. I took out 400 pesos, but never received the card back. Somehow, they were able to conduct another transaction in the same bank machine for exactly 4000 pesos. Our camera was also stolen from... More

First of all this is your holiday so dont take notice of the bad reviews, if you want to have a good time you cant fail by staying here. As other reviewers have said pool is great, the beach is great loads of sunbeds although the ones with the parasols do get taken quickly. The staff come around with drinks... More
