I loved this place, my whole family went! I went with 13 other people and we all had a great time!! I went on the 18th of December until the 24 of December in 2004. We had soo much fun we might go again but the best was the dance lesson and FRANCO and the kids section. We had so much fun having rentals on the beach. Me and my cousins all went and ordered 3 kayaks then when we were done 3 paddleboats!! It was the best trip EVER! Good job.

My husband, daughter, daughter's boyfriend and I went for 4 days 12/26/05, and was so pleased with Riu Caribe Cancun and all the EFFORT they were putting forward to having a CLASS hotel, in light of the Hurricane WILMA damage. Cancun was worse for wear, but RIU was hands down a great place to stay! My daughter's boyfriend had never been to Mexico, and had a great time and was in awe of the hotel and all of its amenities. The oceans water is chilly in December, but when the sun is out, you can certainly enjoy it and the pool as well. The food offerings were plentiful and tasty. The atmosphere was wonderful. We will return!

We stayed at the Riu Caribe late February 2006 till beginning of March. The hotel is beautiful, front desk staff not so nice, very busy, we had to wait for our hotel room an extra hour and a half. The food, they do give you a good variety to choose from, but the food wasn’t the best, it was OK. The ocean was cold, the beach is nice because no one bothers you to buy things and the pool was very nice. The bartenders really take care of you if you are nice to them. The bartenders inside the hotel are extremely nice; when you go ask for Juan, Jose, or Alfonso, they are the BEST and they can fix you the best SHOTS!!!!
