    Not terrible but certainly not good enough

    Currently here and opinion below: Definitely not a 5 star hotel, 3.5 at best. Stayed at much better 4 star resorts. Pros: - comfortable bed - staff are friendly Cons - I have had some kind of food poisoning/diarrhoea most of the time here. - food average at best. - if you’re not up and out at 8am latest don’t expect a sun lounger. - because of the party on a Friday been kept awake by drunk guests. Not helpful when we have a baby with us. Not terrible but certainly not good enough. Wouldn’t recommend

    This is a lovely resort

    We had an all-round great experience here. The property is beautiful and well maintained. Our room was comfortable and a good size. The outdoor balcony was quite big with seating. Our maid service was excellent. There are numerous daily activities in different places on the property for those who want to participate. The beach was groomed every morning. The food is good. Some of the a la carte meals were excellent.

    As Relaxing as you want it to be

    5th time at the Yucatan and another wonderful 11 nights, built into the jungle with the fantastic wildlife and sounds just makes this place. The staff are so hard-working and welcoming, the food is fine and the Caribbean Sea as crystal clear as it always is at this time of year. You can relax or have fun. The resort is close to needing a few refurbs but who cares - 11 days of sunshine and people watching, ill be back. Thanks Yucatan

    Winding down at Riu Yucatán.

    Best food ever. Everyone is not in a rush. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. No one pressures you to tip them. Love the vibe, so chill and relaxing.
