Stayed for 7 nights at the Riu Vallarta. The hotel had a lovely layout, easy to get to lounges, pools, restaurants, and to the beach. The room was nice and spacious. The balcony had a little towel drying rack which was amazing for hanging up wet swim suits. The balcony had two chairs and a little table. Amazing sunset views from the balcony as well. The room its self did have a liquor dispenser on the wall above the mini fridge. I stayed on the 8th floor and the location of it was lovely as there was a elevator just around the corner from my room.

Hotel was beautiful and extremely clean. Staff were friendly, food was really good, and nice clean beach. Check-in and check-out was efficient. If you are looking for night life, this is not the right hotel.. It's quite sleepy overall, with one show a night, and no late night entertainment. Everything closes by 11 pm.We went off the resort most nights We didn't like that the pools closed at 7 pm each night, as most resorts let you enjoy an evening swim till at least 10 or 11 pm. Overall, a nice resort and great for families

Clean, safe and great food choices. Lots of activities for kids and adults. All the staff were friendly and considerate. Easy beach walk between RIU properties. RIU Jalisco had a larger kids pool area with slides and bucket. RIU Vallarta had a smaller kids pool area but very adequate.

This is the fist all inclusive hotel I have stayed with no waiters on beach or pool. It was a surprise that you could be in the pool for 2-3 hours and no staff was available. It’s not a bad hotel but I would not choose to stay here again. The food was surprisingly unflavored the state of Nayarit enormous and delicious food and dishes so for the resort to make the food as tasteless and bland was disappointing.

Stayed at multiple Riu resorts in Mexico and this was definitely at the bottom of the list. The property is very dirty with pool lounge chairs that have multiple stains. Food is poor and all of the buffet was the best option in comparison to the restaurant. The buffet would run out of food items and you would wait over 20 minutes for them to bring out a new dish. Staff was vert rude and not friendly at all. It didnt matter where we went, it was rare to find a smiling happy worker. No drink servers anywhere to be found and we had to walk to a bar everytime we wanted a drink. We payed for cabanas on the beach and got no service their either. Shows were ok and night entertainment was probably the highlight of the resort. People at the pool with the swim up bar got completely drunk one day we were there and were totally inappropriate. Given that this is a family friendly resort and although this happened at the adult pool, its literally a few feet away from the other pools. Honestly would go somwhere else. If youre ok with some chaos and low standards and 2 star service i would say youll be fine here.
