My wife and I celebrated our 20th anniversary at the Riu Caribe on Aug 4-9th and had previously stayed here about 7 years ago. We have been to several all inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Dominican Republic and this was certainly a very enjoyable vacation. I will offer a few of our honest observations as we use Trip Advisor... more

I would say that my husband and are by no means picky travelers. We can find the good in a Motel 6, but this hotel was too much. Please pay attention the complaints of others. It will keep you from making the same mistake that we made. First of all unlike the other Riu's in Cancun the lobby is not... more

The staff is consistenty doing everything possible to please you. We arrived in the morning to find that all of the ala carte restaurants were full for the evening. I explained to... more

Riu Caribe is not a 5 star. The hotel is very hot and not many places that do have air conditioner. We had a group of 8. 4 out of the 8 ended up not feeling well during the trip. Out of 4 different rooms all had some kind of problem. 1) A/C did not cool very well and room... more

Stayed at the Riu Caribe July 28- Aug 5 For the most part we enjoyed our stay. The only downside to Cancun in August is that it is down right hot. Who’d a figured. Room Pretty basic. We upgraded to a Jr suite for about $150.00 for 7 nights. I’m not sure this is necessary. All of the rooms have... more

The beach and ocean was great, warm calm clear water all week, it never rained once while we were there. The pool is huge and very warm. The downside to Mexican beaches from... more

The website says that it is 5 star but i would agree with tripadvisors rating. It is a 3 star. Entertainment was great,... more

This was my fifth trip to Mexico, third to Cancun and have not once been sick - until I stayed at the RIU Caribe! Four of my five trips to Mexico have been with the RIU hotel chain, both my daughter and I came away very disappointed as well as sick from the RIU Caribe! Upon return to the US,... more

Everything about the Riu is great and couldn't have asked for better. Rooms were always cleaned, mini bar regularly re stocked, beach & pool fantastic. The food was great in the main dining room but wouldn't recommend the steak house. The service was shocking & the steak fatty and cold. (I'd give the steak house a miss!) All the staff... more
