"Everything was great except the beach there was a lot of sea weed, but I know the hotel as nothing to do with nature but maybe they can do something clean more often, I don’t know do something!"

"That’s a very beautiful, clean place Food is very good We love the ocean, and it was a lot of sea weeds, but not the resort fault Overall I will give a 10/10"

"Not the place if you are looking for a relaxing vacation. Lots of partying and no private beach. "Quiet pool" is very small and have to sit in front of peoples rooms"

"This was my second time at this resort. The first time was amazing. The food was great, the resort was all open and clean, restaurants were amazing. But this time, half of the resort was closed off due to construction. This wouldn’t have been an issue had we been aware. The only notice that was given by the resort was “noise from construction”. They nowhere mentioned that so much would be closed, along with restaurants. Restaurants had to be combined into one building and the food slacked greatly this time "

"What can I say!! This property is a 10000/10. We had a beautiful swim out suite. The room was cleaned daily. The staff went above and beyond. The spa was amazing. If you are weighing your options just book it! You will not be disappointed. The drinks are strong and the steak house is really world class! "

"My stay at Riu Tequila had some great highlights, but also a few letdowns. The entertainment team was truly top-tier — easily 10/10. They consistently organized activities throughout the day and night and made a real effort to engage guests. They were friendly, energetic, and made the experience fun. The shows were interactive and kept us entertained the entire stay. Another standout was the cleanliness. This is one of the cleanest hotels I’ve ever stayed at. You constantly see staff maintaining the property, and the rooms were spotless every day. However, the biggest disappointment was the food and drinks. For a RIU resort, I expected much better quality. Most of the cocktails tasted watered down, which was surprising. The food overall was hit or miss during my six-night stay. The buffet was excellent on two nights, offering a great variety of meats and fresh options, but inconsistent on other days. The restaurants were decent, but definitely could have been better. Compared to other RIU resorts I’ve visited, this was a noticeable downgrade in both food and drink quality. One important thing to note: this is not a beachfront property. You’ll need to take a golf cart or walk across the street, which takes about 7–10 minutes. While the golf cart runs every 10 minutes, this could be inconvenient for elderly guests or anyone with mobility challenges. Overall, I’d rate this resort a 7/10. The property is beautiful, and the entertainment and cleanliness really stand out. "
