Overall we had a wonderful 4 day stay at Riu Vallarta. All the staff were attentive and friendly, the room was spacious and clean, bartenders were fast & efficient, and it's hard to beat being right on the beach. the only thing that was left to be desired was the food. the buffest was very average and most of the food desperately needed seasoning as it was lacking in flavor. The Kulinarium and Steak House were by far the two best restaurants but still left something to be desired. All in all, we had a wonderful time and would reccomend Riu Vallarta to anyone looking for a good mid-level all-inclusive.

My family and i had a good time. It was my birthday weekend and them sending a small gift to my room was very thoughtful. The waitresses and waiters were very nice and on top of everything the best they could. I loved how close the beach was and the set up around it. I do have to say the rooms need better sheets and blankets and the pools were way too hot.
