"Built to resemble a Mayan pyramid, the all-inclusive Riu Caribe is located on the north end of Cancun Island." Full review
Lonely Planet "Riu rules the Riviera Maya – they’re everywhere. This particular Riu has 541 rooms (all with ocean views), including 60 junior suites, and a family-friendly atmosphere."
Star Service "Location aside (it is a bit prosaic), this remains a satisfactory all-inclusive operation. Situated 21 kilometers from the airport, it is one of the more isolated hotels from Cancun action. " Full review

Fodor's "Thanks to the use of solar energy, a water-recycling system, and composting toilets, this unique hotel has very little impact on the environment." Full review
Michelin Guide "Rooms are comfy, the cafe is great, and the composting and solar power energy leave a respectably small carbon footprint."
Rough Guide "Sunny yellow rooms with kitchenettes, plus a pool, spa services and generous breakfast at this casual hotel that feels like it should be on a beach in Tulum."
