"We have been going to the RIU Peninsula for 5 years and RIU hotels in Cancun for 13+. The RIU peninsula has evolved into more family or kid friendly rather than balancing adult activities. Literally basically lights out by 10pm. Shows are mixed between their own entertainment crew and some nights professionals. Keep in mind shows are open for kids so be ready for constant interruptions and adults not watching children. NOW; THERE IS NO UTILIZATION OF OTHER RIU Amenities after 5:30 so be sure the check entertainment schedule as you will not be able to join other RIU hotels shows as previously allowed.
Elevators on main high rise was broken so many trips up and down from 16th floor.
Requested repair on fridge and within six days still had not been fixed. Keep in mind ice only on 3 floors. So with elevators broken and warm fridge …. Well enough said.
Now the staff in restaurants and bars are amazing.
We will definitely be going to an adult only hotel next year and I hope the RIU increases their level of service. "
