Riu Tequilla

The all-inclusive Riu Tequila is a fabulous 664-room village-style resort, located next to a beautiful 18-hole golf course inside Playa del Carmen's exclusive resort area. Numerous clinets have given great reviews about staying at this property. A tropical garden path opposite the Riu Yucatan hotel provides easy access to the resort's beach club, just a short stoll away. A beach shuttle is also available.

If you are looking for a lovely, laid back resort, then look no further. Renovations completed in November 2008 include completely re-decorated guest rooms, a new Asian restaurant, an updated palyground and a separate pool for the kids. Riu Tequila offers comfortably furnished rooms and a wide variety of bars and restaurants for fine dining. The all-inclusive Riu Tequila resort is a favorite among the other sister properties, as activities and entertainment are non-stop day and night.
