    Beautiful resort

    We stayed here for 7 nights. We had a wonderful time. This resort exceeded our expectations. We loved the pool & also the beach. The drinks were also really good. Our favorite bartender was Freddy. He was super nice and always took care of us. We also enjoyed the Asian and Italian restaurants. All in all we definitely recommend this resort m. Good for couples but also families as well. We will most definitely be back.

    Great times at Jalisco

    We are repeat visitors to RIU Jalisco, and the resort never disappoints. The staff are all so pleasant, attentive, and hard working. The Friday night RIU party is always the high point of the week, and we are already planning our next visit!

    Restaurant staff were friendly and welcoming. They always refilled our water and took away our used dishes.

    Nice place

    We enjoyed our stay at Riu. The service and food was great. I wish it’s more clean but I understand with so many people staying there is very hard.

    They take your money and don’t care about your needs after.

    Hotel amenities were good. Customer service at check in and check out was fine. Customer service in regards to a room issue was terrible. Our air conditioning did not work the first day/night. We called front desk and were told maintenance would go, maintenance went and fixed it the second evening but after an hour it broke again, we asked to switch rooms but front desk would not and informed us they would send maintenance again. It took around 3 hours total to fix the issue once maintenance arrived from the first time. We asked for late check our, just one hour as compensation and were told it would be a 900 mxn pesos charge. Really? Had us seating in our room an entire day/night and you could not give us one measly hour for no charge? Way to take care of your customers. Never again.
