What a wonderful resort! It was so much more than we expected! We had been cautioned by others that have gone to Cancun that the rooms may not be nice and cool, and the drinks were watered down quite a bit. Not the case here! Our room had an absolutely picturesque view, and was nice and cool. We figured out on the first day if you tip a couple of dollars, your bartender will take good care of you. And who can't spare a few bucks for some good drinks and great service. The staff was very personable and helpful, and the restaurants had a wide variety to choose from. From the moment we checked in until the time we left, we received the best service from all involved.

Even on our excursion, the staff helped us get everything done and welcomed us back and wanted to know about our diving adventure. We made fast friends with the staff and other vacationers as well. There were a few personal touches that were special as well: on one day our room was cleaned, the housekeeping staff left the bed covered in fresh tropical flowers with chocolates on the pillows. That was special as this was my husband and mine's first trip away from our children, ages 15 & 11! Job well done Margot for all your help and what a wonderful facility the Riu Caribe is! My husband is already planning another trip for September for our anniversary!!!
