Cancun South Hotel with Pool

"Room was average (closer to a 3-star, garden view), but housekeeping was good. The resort claims to be all-inclusive, but there’s a noticeable class system in many areas, which takes away from the experience. Staff were a mix—some very kind, but overall service didn’t feel truly all-inclusive. Expect frequent and aggressive pitches for expensive long-term memberships. Nightly entertainment felt repetitive. Food was especially disappointing for vegetarians, and we even encountered rancid ingredients once at “She” restaurant. Pool seating is also heavily tiered, which felt unusual compared to other resorts. Overall, not the all-inclusive experience we expected."

"Overall a great experience"

"Let me start with the check in line, it was horrible. We waited in line for about an hr, and im not exaggerating. I payed through expedia for a ocen view room. I had the pool view with a sliver of ocen view, they said as long as you can see the ocean, its ocean view. Staff told me if i wanted ocean view i would have to pay for a ocean front room. After i pleaded my case the manager did put me at 50% ocean view. The rooms, pool and building was clean and the staff was nice. The gym is very limited, but i was glad they had dumbells and a bench. We only had the breakfast package and the food was good. Checkout was fast. Just make sure you choose ocean front if you wana see the full ocean view. "

"Food was not good, not enough variety. Some of the staff were very rude when you asked them something.No entertainment pretty boring. Our fridge didn’t work , hair dryer didn’t work asked to replace it and they never did, safe didn’t work . We did have a nice view but honestly the hotel is old and it could use a renovation."

"Beautiful Property"

"We stayed at the Riu because of the beautiful beach. They were going to shut down for a couple of months for remodeling. Will definitely return once renovation is completed. "

"Good"

"The property is immaculate. Very well kept, extremely clean and staff was extremely helpful in all matters. The food....well, your not going to starve, plenty of food but keep a open mind, its different than the states, not bad just different."

"Everything was amazing! Absolutely everyone from the staff was so welcoming. Also, we were always the first to be dropped when coming back from tours, so that was defina plus ;) "
