Overall the Riu was great. The only negative was the food. The food in the specialty restaurants was not worth getting reservations as the buffett is good. The steak house meal was awful and you really don't get full restaurant service in the speciality restaurants, they are partial buffets. We loved the Latte machines! Service staff were wonderful! Ask for Harry Potter (this is a nick name he uses) at the Buffett breakfast, he took our trip from good to great. Great service! The dinner reservation system was awful for us, but they were converting to a new system when we were leaving. If you don't pay extra for an ocean view, you could get stuck in the back portion of the development which has you so far from the beach it is a 10 minute walk to the ocean. If you don't like to walk a distance to do things, you need to find a smaller resort. The good part about all the walking is you can eat more at the Buffett! The professional dance shows were great, bands and singers good, the local entertainment staff try to entertain you with volunteer guests, but I found their shows not worth the lost sleep. Overall we would go there again. I have stayed at Hotel Solaris in San Jose and I liked it better for the same money. The good part about the Riu is the location at Los Cabos (10 cab ride). When you want a cab in the lobby, just talk to other guests and you usually can share a cab and split the fixed fare. The guy calling the cabs will not help you with this, but most visitors are quit to join you in the cab. Just speak up.

I went to this resort with my sister over a long weekend; overall it was a great resort, one of the best i've been too. The resort is HUGE and plan on doing a lot of walking; there are at least 900 rooms spread out over 8 or 9 buildings; plus the main building and its 'square' with restaurants, shopping, stage, bars etc - it's really big! As far as the foods goes, it could be better, but I should preface this with the fact that we did the buffet almost all the time except once when we went to the Asian restaurant (not good). The buffet does have a big selection, but try hitting them all, they're each at varying times and there is a slightly different selection at each. If you'd like a nice sit-down restaurant you can arrange for that in the mornings, apparently people love their food and they wait in line for this, I mean really wait in line. By the time we got there the only thing available was the Asian restaurant, it wasn't fantastic and it was buffet style, but not good food. There is an Italian and Steakhouse that seemed to book up really fast and there's also a mexican restaurant. Sorry I've got no info on those other than to tell you if your interested, go early :) and you can book for 2 nights at once. I can't really attest to the activities because we didn't do any, although we knew they were there, just not where specifically. The pool is fantastic, if all you want out of a trip is to go and be lazy by the pool - this is it. There are 2 pool areas, both huge, both have swim up bars and each 'area' has 2-3distinctPools.Sorry.Out.of.Space.Its.a.Nice.Resort!!!EnjoyIT!!!

I will keep it brief. We travel to Mexico at least once a year and this hotel really made this trip unenjoyable. The food is awful!!! Even in the reservation dinner restaurants, some of which are the buffets with a main course ala carte. There is no room service and our mini bar was stocked once( I had to ask). The pools were gross, I don't even want to know what was floating in them. It was like spring break, loud, nasty, and not a place I would want to take my kids. I am glad they were home this trip. The entertainment was the worst I have seen anywhere, unless you consider people spitting water on each other art. All in all it was by far my worst experience in Mexico.

The mosquitos were horrible in the rooms, it took various requests to have someone spray for them, and even after the spray they were still there. The pool bar off the beach was enjoyable until a large group got intoxicated and got very inappropriate with each other and other guests. This was no place for children. I was very surprised that they were never asked to stop nor were they cut off of alcohol. I was glad my own child wasn't with us for this trip.
