I read review after review about the RIU Playacar and was really excited for our vacation. There were a few negative ones, but I usually take the negative ones with a grain of salt, because some people are just very hard to please. I don't consider myself hard to please and am not a snob by any means. My husband... More

We just returned from 9 days at the RIU Playacar. Absolutely wonderful in every aspect. Food and drinks were beyond compare. This was my 18th trip to the wonderful country of Mexico. I hae stayed at many different hotels as well as many of the RIU properties. I can honestly say the Playacar is by far my favorite! Food and... More

The resort was, as always, immaculate. They keep the lobby, resturants and rooms so clean. The staff are so friendly and nice. Haven't met a single one that wasn't super nice.

I went here with my husband and we are both in our early 50's. Check in was very quick, our room was very comfortable. People complain that it is outdated but I like to call it chi chi esque. Entire resort was spotlessly clean, always plenty of hot water, air conditioning worked great. People complain that the AC doesn't work... More

When we arrived from the 11 hour flight was a bit tired and the check in was very fast and efficient and informative. The rooms are large and we had a ground floor room in block 5 which was perfect. I had my birthday while away and they left loads of balloons and a present in the room for me... More
