RIU Ups the Ante for Cancun Getaways

In the world of elegant suites, sumptuous spas and sun-kissed tropical beaches, few names carry as much prestige internationally as RIU Hotels & Resorts. Family-owned for going on seven decades, the key to their success has been simple: an absolute, laser-like focus on elevating the guest’s experience. It’s this dedication that led them to revamp and revitalize their Cancun offerings — see for yourself how their latest updates ultimately up the ante for Mexico’s go-to getaway.

Riu Palace Kukulkan Hotel

Look, kids are great. No one is saying they’re not. But sometimes, a place and time can take on a whole new meaning if the kids happen to be … elsewhere. Such is the case with the Riu Palace Kukulkan Hotel, an adults-only all-inclusive resort opening November 26th. Untethered from the bustling energy that young ones seem to radiate, your days quickly settle into a quieter rhythm.

Maybe you wake up at 10 or 11 instead of 7:00 a.m. and treat yourself to breakfast in bed with RIU’s newly upgraded Cappuccino Bar and room service menu. Maybe you break up your beach reads and your poolside reads with trips to the lobby bar to try the daily signature drink. Whether it’s a midday nap or late dinner, you’ll find the ambiance is consistent: charming, sophisticated and relaxing peace. 

Riu Latino Hotel

Nestled within the Costa Mujeres beach zone — one of the most exclusive areas of Cancun — is the Riu Latino Hotel. It’s here that you and your better half (or you and your crew of closest friends) can let loose for the time of your life. Just because the resort is adults-only doesn’t mean it’s “quiet” or dare we say, “boring.” A day spent at the Splash Water World water park is likely to satisfy both your inner child and daredevil alike.

Or, if your idea of a good time is typically accompanied by good drinks, then the swim-up bar pairs perfectly with the in-water loungers. If you need a recovery day from the above, then no stress — the Renova Spa will literally melt your stress away with their sumptuous relaxation pools, steam room and range of beauty treatments.

For the best of the best, opt for the new Elite Club by RIU

Elite Club by RIU

For those seeking to truly treat themselves with their vacation days, the proverbial “crème de la crème” experience, look no further than the newly inaugurated Elite Club by RIU. Exclusive products and services seem to unfurl everywhere you turn, as if the world was a flower blooming for your enjoyment. Your stay is upgraded to a premium location — the sort of view that leaves you feeling like you’re on top of the world. Premium branded drinks unlock for your ordering at selected bars and upgraded minibars and premium liquor dispensers await back in your room. An exclusive welcome gift awaits after check-in, and no stress on when you’ll check out — confirmed late check out is standard when you’re part of the Elite Club, available at Riu Palace Kukulkan.

Making the Most of Your Trip

While it seems like just staying at a RIU Hotels & Resorts property would be making the most of your trip, there are levels to this. Your stay may be great, but your trip only elevates to “dream come true” with the tried-and-true wisdom of a professional. That’s where we come in — our travel advisors are in the business of navigating the world of travel and working with businesses to secure you deals you didn’t even know were possible. For example: we can secure great rates at all of the above. That’s par for the course when you book through Funjet Vacations, with other timely offers piled on top. Chalk it up to good business or great customer service, but the result is the same — you’ll feel like you’re on top of the world.
