My party of six stayed at the Riu Yucatan the last week in Jan 2025. Overall, we had a good time. Here are some of the Pro’s and Con’s: Pro: Beach. One of the most beautiful we have seen in 20 years of international all-inclusive resorts. Pools. They were clean. However, they did need some maintenance (many missing tiles, cracks in concrete edge, etc). The foam party was a favorite. Resort size. Small enough to walk, large enough for a decent size pools. Shared privileges with two other resorts within walking distance. We went to a Neon Party at the Tequila (it was awesome) ! Shopping is also walking distance. Room . Very clean rooms. Housekeeping did a very nice job. It was nice to have a coffee maker in the room. Staff. All attentive and polite. Staff, in charge of activities, did a great job. Con: Alcohol. No top-shelf spirits (no Grey Goose, Tito’s, or Absolut vodka). Management says that you need to stay in a higher tier resort for that luxury. Food. Plentiful and tasty. Although, a little redundant after 7 days. The specialty restaurants were average. It was nice to not need a reservation for any of them. Elevator. None. They have it on their website but you may miss it. The room buildings are three floors. Sounds like there is limited king-size beds on the ground floor. If you are going for the beach and ocean view, I highly recommend. If you are going for the pool, you might want to shop around.

Overall, a nice week away. Lovely beach and pools. Buffet food was good and lots to choose from. A la carte restaurants were disappointing. Not the quality you would expect. Entertainment was also disappointing. Not enough local culture. No Mexican dancers or mariachi bands at night. Diva show, Michael Jackson show and Karaoke were disappointing. So much better talent in Mexico.

Alcohol was great, rooms cold. Food was not great. Breakfast is the worst unless you live on fruit. Italian restaurant is great, steak restaurant not so much. The margarita is great for lunch. Too many vendors on the beach and I do not recommend buying excursions on beach your all inclusive meal on the excursion would be 2 taquitos rice and bean soup. That’s all you get to eat in 10 hours. You will also wait 40 minutes in a can as they have a sales meeting and then wait another 45 minutes to get into wherever you are going because you need your tickets. For the price nice resort with great staff
