Our room at the Riu Caribe was awsome. We had the jr. suite overlooking the sea and also had a view of the pool area. The first day we were there it rained for about 5 minutes. It is very humid but that didn't stop us from doing anything. The entertainment crew were excellent. We went to the international show... more

The staff was awesome! They were so much fun. They kept everyone involved and ensured everyone was having a great time. They were never rude or unprofessional. They were so happy with a simple two dollar tip as well. It was very humbling. The service is just unbelievable. The staff worked so hard, 16 hours a day… and they barley... more

Overall - we were happy with this hotel. The rooms were clean and the service was friendly. We would have liked to see some seafood on the buffet, but the food overall was good. The hotel wasn't as upgraded/fancy as some of the other hotels in the hotel zone, but a good value for the money. more

This was an amazing experience. My family and I wanted to go to Cancun to celebrate my daughter's 12th birthday. In the end, it turned out not just a birthday but a family reunion. All i can say is that the service felt like the people were so happy to serve you. They did the impossible to make sure you... more

First off, for anyone reading this review, use your best judgment when reading other reviews. I was reluctant to book, and I did anyways just because the price was great. we payed approx $650 per person with airfare included and all inclusive. I stayed at Riu Caribe for 4 nights in the beginning of October to celebrate my birthday. I... more

Upon arrival we were very disappointed in our room size and the beds were not what we had requested in our reservation. I went to request an upgrade even if we had to pay And they said that they were sold out so can't help me. I was really mad since it was my one year anniversary. NIce beach and... more
