Entertainment staff were fun and amazing! Pepe and Eric have so much energy! Variety of activities too. Buffet and Kulinarium - best food! All the bartenders were great and great service including bartenders w carts around the pool. Never had to wait to get a table for dinner. I was most excited for the steakhouse but my dinner parties steaks were so overcooked. Ordered medium and got well done. That is really my only complaint. Beach was fun - definitely grab the boogie boards! You do have to get up early and claim pool chairs (recommend 7 am). All in all very fun and very pleased - would go back again !

Riu Vallarta was a wonderful, all-inclusive resort. They had many dining options and bars. We loved the beach and the swimming pools! Our room was cleaned every day and our maid left an adorable animal on the bed made out of towels and stickers. It was always a fun surprise to come back to. The front desk was super-helpful if you needed anything. We truly enjoyed our stay!

I enjoyed everything about my stay. The only complaint I have is that the bottles of alcohol in the rooms were not replaced as is mentioned in the little plaque. I am only a gin drinker and the bottle upon arrival was almost empty. I asked about getting a new bottle and it never was replaced. Also, bring your own conditioner. They have a soap that is both body wash and shampoo. There was also no lotion. Otherwise, everything was great.
