Riu Yucatan Beach
Resort Riviera Maya, Mexico
Playa
Del Carmen - Ever since it opened as the original Riu on the
Riviera Maya, the Riu Yucatan has been causing a great
sensation! Themed in an early Mexican Colonial style, the
resort features a lobby modeled after an authentic Mexican
town with hand-painted frescos of flowers, angels and
clouds. The Hacienda Restaurant extends to a terrace amidst
jungle greenery, offering a great variety of tantalizing
buffets and on-the-spot cooking. Guests are sure to enjoy
the informal atmosphere of Margarita's specialty restaurant,
as they dine alongside the large pool area and take part in
the delightful theme nights. Relax beneath one of the many
palm trees sprinkled along the white sand beach, or enjoy
the array of watersports for fun in the clear waters of the
Caribbean. Play tennis on one of three lighted courts, or
sip a sunset cocktail in one of four bars. Bright spacious
garden rooms come with two double beds, mini fridge and bar.
The Riu Yucatan is a great choice for families and couples.
507 air-conditioned rooms.
