I have mixed feelings about this resort, which is why the 3-star rating. We were with a group of friends and had an amazing vacation over Christmas 2024. This resort itself is okay. Nice, well kept, and they do a great job keeping rooms, pools, common areas and especially washrooms clean. They are also very responsive when one reports messes. The Activities team did a great job keeping guests engaged with yoga, foam pool parties, and so on. It was a lot of fun. The staff are courteous and the bartenders will mix drinks well for you. The infinity pool with mezcal bar was crowded, but our favorite place to hangout after other activities. Also, big plus that lounge chairs by the pool or by the beach are always available! They have a lot, and one doesnt have to scramble early in the morning to find a place. Our kids also enjoyed a lot in the pools, beach and the 24hr sports bar. Riu Jalisco is also walkable from this resort and we went there to the disc; and that was a lot of fun. (However, on our second visit to the disc, there was no one there and there was a strong odor of vomit - so some guests seem to have partied a little too much). There is lively daily shows and music performances in the evenings/night with dancing that livens up the atmosphere. Overall, guests are going to have an amazing time with their loved ones. So why 3 stars then? The food. I’ll put a caveat here and say that while the food did not sit too well with us, I can see that some other groups who have a

No life guard at the beach. The food at the steak house is lousy and too salty. No table or a small desk in the room. The front staff is lacking common courtesy. We stayed here 12 years ago and back then it was excellent. The pool hours are too short.The beds are very small. Very disappointed.

The restaurants were the only issue. You can’t make reservations, which is fine, but if you don’t show up within the first hour of them opening to get on the wait list, you won’t be eating. With that being said, it was the week of Christmas so maybe it’s not normally this way.

Lugar bien pero muy mala atención.

El hotel esta solo bien, la comida, los cuartos normales y habría estado bien todo si no fuera por el servicio y la limpieza del buffet. Durante el buffet la comida esta bien pero todo al rededor de la comida lo que se cae no limpian y no se ve agradable. Hay muchos moscos en algunas areas y terminamos con las piernas muy irritadas. La atención de la gente que trabaja en el hotel es buena solo en la recepción, pedimos cosas a la habitación y teníamos que llamar varias veces porque suben lo que quieren y no lo que pides, me subieron la cuna para mi bebe y literal la persona molesta me la lanzo a medio cuarto, durante el desayuno una mesera muy grosera igual aventando los cafes y cosas teniendo a mi bebe conmigo. Durante la noche de Navidad a medio día cerraron el buffet y si preguntabas donde estaban sirviendo la comida las 4 personas a las que preguntamos muy mala actitud, groseras y no sabían nada. Fuimos una semana y nos hemos quedado siempre en la cadera RIU cuando viajamos porque tienen buen servicio y esta vez termine muy decepcionada de eso.

Great resort, especially for the price. I liked that they had so many options for food, but I do wish they had more authentic Mexican food available rather than seemingly catering to international visitors’ tastes. It was also nice that we didn’t have to make any reservations for restaurants and there was always somewhere for us to go if one of the restaurants was full. As someone with celiac disease, I was worried there wouldn’t be many gluten free options for me/cross contamination would be hard to avoid, but we stayed for 6 days and I didn’t get sick once. The staff seemed educated on gluten and the importance of knowing what was and wasn’t gluten free, and even on the excursions we went on (Las Caletas and a tour of PV) the food was safe and the employees seemed to care a lot about making me feel safe. The room was very nice, and the air conditioning worked perfectly. We loved the balcony area and we had a lovely view of the resort and the ocean. All the swimming pools were always super crowded so we didn’t spend much time there, but the beach was beautiful. Excellent service, good drinks, and all around a very nice stay.
