We just spent 2 glorious weeks at the Riu Lupita!! Our second anniversary fell during this trip, and the restaurant staff brought us out a cake and sang a Mexican good wishes song for us. The devils even put in a trick candle that wouldn't blow out!! In general, we enjoyed ourselves very much. The room we had was clean... more

We stayed at the Riu Lupita at Playa Del Carmen for a week around the second week in April. The resort has all the basic facilities and is simple. The food is ok too , no complains with that. But what really put us off , was there were cockroaches ( big ones) crawling around in the room and bathrooms..which... more

I went with my 2 sisters for a vacation here. The hotel was a great size for us and the buffet had lots of selection. However, the first night we found a pair of women's underwear (none of ours) between the comforter and sheet - gross but not dire. The distance to the beach wasn't bad - we even walked... more

My husband and I were visiting the Mayan Riviera for the first and wanted a hotel which was not isolated and would give us access to the town of Playa del Carmen. We wanted to stay in a smaller, quieter environment. We read reviews from other travellers and decided Riu Lupita looked good for our needs. Our room was clean... more

We booked a last minute trip for 5 nights here at a super cheap price of $720 per person, a little over $1500 a couple with all taxes and fees. The resort is small with 2 pools, the one main pool with entertainment,bar and food nearby and the quiet pool that doesnt offer much. If u plan to layout poolside... more

We took this trip as a last minute deal March 29th to April 5th and had a great time. The resort is not a big place but sometimes smaller is better. At first we were concerned about the distance from the resort to the beach, but the shuttle ran on time ever half hour, dropping you off at either 5th... more

Are you like me? and not sure of an all inclusive vacation? We booked last minute with the best we could find for our available funds. We got more than we paid for ! Great service, great food ( and I like food ), close to Playa del Carmen ( 5 mins by shuttle that runs every 1/2 hour ...... more

My husband and I stayed at the Lupita from March 7th to the 21st. We booked with Sunquest. The bus that brought us to the hotel was ok but the guide in the bus had a little racket going. They were selling Corona beer for $3.00 a bottle and at one point I was wondering where they had stored the... more

My husband and I stayed at the resort with my young teen daughter and my niece for spring break. We absolutely recommend this resort for service, entertainment and activities. At first I was concerned about lack of beach access, but the shuttle goes every half hour. If you take a taxi, it's only $2.00 so you can go when you... more

Just returned from a week at Riu Lupita. As noted by many other reviews, the hotel is quiet, a little off the beaten track, but offers tremendous value. My daughters and I spent the better part of two days at the Riu Playacar hanging out in their bigger pool, which indeed did have more action, but the food was the... more
