Whether your idea of luxury is an opulently decorated adults-only hotel or classy Hotel Zone accommodation with endless All Inclusive activities, there’s a 5* Cancun hotel on the list for you.
All hotels come with private beaches and some even offer exclusive adults-only areas with their own strips of sand, restaurants and other extras. You can choose to stay in a tucked away location or a hotel close to Cancun’s excellent nightlife, restaurants and cafes.
Riu Cancun Hotel
The 24-hour All Inclusive Riu Cancun is a 5* beachfront hotel that welcomes you in with its spectacular entrance hall complete with grand pillars and marble effect floor.
Situated in the Hotel Zone right beside the Caribbean Sea you’ll be directly opposite the Mayfair and Caracol shopping centres and only a 15-minute walk from the clubs and bars of Cancun.
But with a 24-hour sports bar with games on the big screens and pool tables, plus a late-opening Pacha nightclub on-site, you don’t need to go far.
All Inclusive also covers buffet and speciality restaurants like a steakhouse, Italian and Asian places. You get free use of the gym and whirlpool bath overlooking the sea, and for a little extra you can get treatments at the sumptuous Renova Spa.
Otherwise just relax by the three freshwater swimming pools – one with a swim-up cocktail bar – or at the infinity pool with in-pool seats.
For more action take part in volleyball or organised water polo, enjoy watersports, watch shows and let the kids indulge in the RiuLand programme.
Even the standard rooms here come with a king size bed or two small doubles, plus a balcony or terrace. Otherwise choose a suite or junior suite with sea views and up to 53m2 of space. Suites have a separate lounge area with sofa and a hydromassage bathtub.
