The staff at the property were phenomenal. The drinks were good. The food was amazing. Wish they had more options after 10pm. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from all of the clubs and it was safe to walk at any time of the day/night. The bus stop was a minute walk away.. also very safe. Uber and uber eats were easily accessible. Our housekeeper always cleaned our room and kept our fridge/bar stocked. Try the jetskiis by the beach and they give you videos/pictures from a drone for purchase and they came out amazing!!! We also booked excursions through the hotel at a really good price. Worth every penny!! Thank you Riu Cancun!!!!
