My husband and I, are looking forward to seeing the new design of the Riu Tequila. We visit the hotel twice a year, and in November this will be our 28th visit to the best hotel ever. Can’t wait to see all the friends we have made over the years. The staff are absolutely wonderful.

We have just returned back from the RIU Tequila and it was amazing. This is the second time we have stayed here and the refurbishment is wonderful. It is fresh and modern, an overall beautiful hotel and the staff are fantastic. They really did go above and beyond for us. The staff were welcoming, pleasant, helpful, extremely hardworking and always smiling. Our housekeeper was Fabiana and she did a wonderful job and worked so hard. Our room was immaculate after she had worked her magic. The bar and restaurant staff were so attentive and thorough particularly the bar tenders at the swim up bar and Veronica who worked at the evening entertainment bar who was great. Ivan who worked on reception was knowledgeable and so helpful in advising us on the local area. The RIU staff were on the beach clearing and raking the sand early in the morning and they worked so hard in cleaning and maintaining the grounds throughout the day. In particular I wanted to say a massive thank you to the entertainment staff who made our holiday so enjoyable. We have two teenagers who loved taking part in the activities that were happening throughout the day and the events and evening entertainment were out of this world. The entertainment team were wonderful, particularly Claudia, Caesar, Kevin and the RIU fitness team who did Aquafit, Stretching and relaxing and Zumba classes.
This hotel looks great, the rooms were pleasant, the food was highly rated and the staff were truly amazing. I would definitely return and would highly recommend this hotel.
Thanks RIU Tequila!!
Hi Amie!
Thank you, we are happy to know that our hotel satisfies all these important points for you 😀
We hope to get the chance to welcome you again soon 🙂

Omg we absolutely loved the Tiquila hotel where we had our wedding back in December 2009 but WOW after the newly refurbishment, it looks outstanding.
Maybe I can give my husband a hint to return for our 10th wedding Anniversary next December. Im sure with a year of nagging he will give in, fingers crossed.
Hi Donna!
Hahaha 😀 We wish to see you both next December 🙂

Stayed at Riu Tequila for 2 weeks from 27th Mar!! It is a top hotel and the exactly just like the pictures! We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the newly renovated Riu Tequila! The room was very clean (gets cleaned daily), fresh and modern. Beautiful green surroundings with cute wild animals which we loved! Staff were very friendly and helpful.The food is of a very high standard and the choice is vast. Our favourite was the Black Cow Steakhouse. We like how the beach is 5 mins but you can also get a free shuttle if you feel lazy! This forces you to get out of the hotel and rather than coming back to the hotel to eat lunch , you can use the buffet at the sister hotel Riu Yucatán which is equally as beautiful! Overall such an excellent stay I could not find a fault! We would definitely recommend coming to the Riu Tequila and cannot wait to go back!
Hi Rob!
Many thanks for sharing you opinion with us!
We are so delighted reading your comment. It will be a pleasure to having you here again 🙂

I was disappointed to see that the Mexican flair and the pools are gone. We visited three times and loved the atmosphere, we could go to the Yucatan and Playacar for the updated cold feeling! It was a shame to rid of such an iconic place
Hi Lynn!
Your opinión is very important for us. We will share your opinions with the corresponding departament.
