The entire family ended up with severe food poisoning requiring doctors visits upon our return from the resort. We didn’t use the tap water for tooth brushing or drinking. The linens had stains and hair on them when we arrived. The “upgraded rooms” are not truly upgraded just fun looking wallpaper added. The mattresses are incredibly old and not comfortable. Our ceiling was leaking water from the light fixtures and maintenance did not come when we called. Instead they decided to wait until morning and woke us up at 7am to do the work they said would be taken care of the night before.

It rained a few days, some heavy rain downpours, it would help if RIU provided golf cart shuttle services during rain downpours. Vacation guests were walking fast/running with umbrellas, this situation can become hazardous, guests can trip and fall on property.

I travel with all my family 6 days vacations. I gave 5 rating on Cleanliness, staff service and location. The food was good but they need to change the variety from the buffet, because it basically was almost the same kind of food every day. They also need to provide transportation to go to the other RIU resorts that you can share,because it's a long walk to go from one resort to another. If you stay on Riu Tequila, you need to take a golf cart to go to the beach and it only operates from 8:am to 6: pm. I will suggest to expand the hours of operations for the cart from 7 to 7 instead.

We took a friend trip here October 9-13, we had a blast. So much fun stuff to do everyday at the resort, definitely recommend the neon/white party on Fridays and the foam party on Thursdays. Would definitely go back, we felt very safe there. We did have to contact the front desk the first night because our room was so hot and the AC wasn’t working but the maintenance guy came and fixed it, never had an issue after that. All around great experience, most of the staff speak English, lots of food options, I expected a little more authentic Mexican food but definitely options for all taste buds.
