    Riu Vallarta

    Very good vacation all inclusive location. If you plan celebrate past midnight this is not your resort. 90% of the resort shuts down, including lighting, at midnight Only a small very outdated 'sports bar remains open. Other than that great place for a relaxing all inclusive vacation.

    First time in Mexico- and won’t be our last!

    This resort exceeded all expectations! The four amazing restaurants offered a perfect mix of buffet and table service, with Il Gusto and the steakhouse being standout experiences. The main buffet was a personal favorite—endless options that changed nightly, offering both familiarity and exciting new flavors. The swim-up infinity pool overlooking the beach was stunning, providing breathtaking views. Nightly entertainment, from live music performances to shows at the central stage and theater, kept the evenings vibrant and enjoyable. The 5-star lobby architecture was truly impressive, adding to the luxury vibe. Finally, the resort’s layout was perfectly designed—spacious yet convenient to access everything with ease. Highly recommend for an unforgettable getaway!

    Great stay

    Stayed here Dec 12-19 Check in was quick and easy when we arrived and we didn't have to wait at all. Our room was ocean view on the 5th floor. It was very clean and the AC worked great . Beds are ok, not great. Our view was very pretty. If you like to go to bed early like me, bring earplugs. All of the entertainment is down below in the courtyard and is very loud. There seemed to be something for everyone here. If you wanted to party you could, if you wanted to relax you could. The beach area is quiet and the pools are a bit more lively . The buffet was decent. Nothing was ever hot but there was a very good selection of food. The steak House was good and so was the Asian restaurant. All in all we had a great trip and would probably come back 😁

    Wonderful Staff!

    We had a fantastic stay! Staff who went above and beyond were Laura at the Breakfast & Lunch Buffet, Carlos at the Steakhouse and Abel the Bartender by the pool. Everyone was pleasant, but these 3 staff members were awesome!
