The hotel looked clean and nice and the staff were friendly, however they rebooked us at a different one of their locations with out any previous communication and when we expressed that we did not want to they said that’s all they have. Further more they guaranteed that we would still have an ocean view in the new hotel however that was not the case and when I talked to someone about it they said they can fix it but it couldn’t happen till four days later (two days before we were to leave)

It was nice to have privledges at other properties. The RIU parties are awesome. The food seemed to fit us better at the Caribe but there were plenty of options at the RIU Cancun. The only negative thing was that we were unable to get into any of the specialty restaurants. We were turned away even though the sign said they were open for two more hours. It seems if you don't go as soon as they open, you won't get in.

Overall the experience was great, the staff was amazing, and when a request was made, it was taken care of in a timely matter. When traveling, I want to unplug and enjoy my stay, so Premium alcohol is a must, that was not included at this hotel. The drinks by the pool were watered down because after consuming 10-12 when by/in the pool, a person should feel a little buzzed, but I did not. The elevators were unusable when there was extra crowd due to overweight or inefficiency. The location was great, it has amazing sunrises, and full of night entertainment. When it comes to the food, it was average. I really enjoyed their steakhouse, Sushi, and Culinary restaurants. I would have enjoyed to have a bit more variety on the buffet and also to be able to order Bloody Mary or mimosa for breakfast, but they only served wine at the dinner options.

The staff did a poor job of managing the spring break revelers. Could not get through to the front desk at night and had loud noise immediately next-door for six hours from 10 PM to 4 AM. Intolerable.
