Overall I enjoyed the experience. If you’re traveling with a child it is nice to have such a small property. Everything is close. The staff is incredible. However, the shuttle to the beach is inconvenient and the specialized restaurants are terrible. The buffet is good and has a lot of variety. There is a lot to do around the resort but no one at the front desk really told us much. The resort is far from the airport and the excursions. You will not have access to the other Rius. It’s not bad for the price but I’d advise you to spend a bit more and upgrade to a resort on the beach.

The property doesn’t have immediate access to the beach! The restaurant and bar in the beach area closed at 5 pm so if you plan to stay for the Sunset no food or drinks will be available and you will have no transportation from the hotel to take you back. The beds are extremely firm making it very difficult to sleep. We were offered a mattress topper that helped a lot.

evening

Riu Lupita was overall a lovely experience. If you’re looking for a good all inclusive for a low price this place is it. What I will say is that the rooms leave something for the imagination. The bed was extremely hard, so hard I actually had pain on my hips and back because of it! Food is questionable, you will have to go off the resort to find anything that resembles authentic Mexican food. Drinks are very much the same, don’t expect a margarita made with out a mix. That being said, the bus to the beach was almost always on time and the adults only pool was the perfect place to relax. Enjoy your stay!
