Breakfast buffet had a big selection but was the SAME EVERYDAY that I could see. Lunch buffet also had a good selection but again, usually the same offerings. Dinner options were more plentiful....'al a carte' Sicilian, Asian or steak. We chose the Italian but wasn't exactly 'fantastic'. We also had the Asian and there was a pretty good selection of food but the sushi portion was small. Fountain drinks were weak in all areas. The bars were well staffed for the most part and the servers very friendly and enthusiastic! Our room, which was a Suite C, was large and located in Building 6 - very central & convenient! We did have trouble with the toilet flushing and found out we were not to flush toilet paper in the toilet???? WHY NO SIGNAGE TO ADVISE OF THAT PROBLEM? We also couldn't get our TV to operate...never did get that fixed. Our 'safe', once items placed inside and door locked with code - we couldn't reopen! Had to have a fellow come open for us. Entertainment in the evening was alright.....not exceptional, just alright. Beaches are beautiful...sandy, no rocks or stones at all. We had a huge balcony but usually too hot to sit out there. Air conditioning worked perfectly!!! Also in-suite fridge/bar was a treat because all drinks were included!!! overall - was fun & safe!!!
These are acoatimundi creatures...a multitude of them

The rooms are decently clean, shower head had noticeable built up dust that obviously looked like it hasn’t been cleaned in a few weeks or months. The food variety is very limited for an all inclusive resort, most of the food is reused at the other “restaurants” they have on the resort. The staff is usually friendly! I don’t run into any rude or non helpful staff. My first night checking in, I was moved to their sister hotel the Riu Palace for the night because the room I had booked had “unexpected air conditioning problems”, which was a bit irritating but it was fixed the next day and wasn’t an issue to resolve. A man by the name of Tito was extremely helpful during that first night. I would stay here again, I would just hope for better and more thorough clean, and a wider variety of food!

RIU Yucatan was a good place to stay. On the upside, the kitchen workers kept the place very clean, there was a good variety of food for my 4 night stay, the optional restaurants were good and provided freshly cooked steak and seafood at 2 of the restaurants ("Sicilia" Italian restaurant "La Margarita" steakhouse.) I had the ribeye at La Margarita and the Salmon at Sicilia, the Salmon was very good and the ribeye was okay. The grounds were kept up very well and the pool experience and entertainment were very good. If there was a downside I would say the optional restaurants were under-staffed and don't expect to get checked into your room until 3PM, we got in very early (8am) but waited until around 3 for our room. Unlike Baja many of the workers don't speak or understand english well, although they were all very respectful and tried to help. I would stay at RIU Yucatan again,
