This is our second trip to Mexico this year, we stayed at this resort for 1 week and it was definitely not relaxing in the slightest. We flew with Sunwing Vacations and had nothing but problems from the start. Our seats were double booked with another couple and we were treated with no respect at all by the flight attendants....

We were told that Puerto Vallarta was "gay friendly". Well it is not, and it cost us a vacation to find out. Our son graduated with his masters and we planned on going to riu jalisco to celebrate. They werey dicriminatory. The staff at the front desk advised us to not stay at the RIU's if you were gay.We...

Just returned from the Rui Jalisco on the 13th of May and would say that yes we would again go to Peurto Valarta and would stay in one of the many Rui hotels in the area. We both liked the hotel and our only negative thing was the lack of a stated adult pool and the many diapered and pantied...

We Stayed May 17, 2011 - May 24, 2011. Food: Good. It was hard becuase some were closed some days. I did not like that there were times when you couldn't get food. Also, the sports bar was out of food one of the days. The hard part was the kids, they were everywhere and would cut infront of you...

Well it was a long exhausting vacation, not worth the aggravation I have not had to write a negative review since 2005(not on TA), so I am guessing this may be the time.Please let me say that what works for some may not work for others ,depending on your previous experience & expectations of travel & that even as much...

My husband and I decided to vacation at the RIU Jalisco for our second honeymoon and my 30th birthday. He has been to several all-inlcusives and I've only stayed at the RIU Santa Fe in Cabo, which was gorgeous. We read the reviews before going to the RIU Jalisco and when we pulled into the resort, our Apple Rep told...

My husband and I have travelled quite a bit - at least one trip a year, and this was our second time to an all inclusive. The first one was in Riviera Maya. We had never been to Nuevo/Puerto Vallarta before, but will be back! We got an amazing last minute deal in April to the Riu Jalisco and couldn't...

My boyfriend & I (now Fiance, he proposed the first night at the Jalisco) were vacationing down there the last week in April. We were a little hesitant because of all the complaints we saw on here but we must be really laid back compared to other people. The food was just fine, all the buffets were great! The Steakhouse...

We travelled to the Riu Jalisco from May 9 - 16, 2011. Overall, the hotel was fantastic. The staff were amazing - very very friendly. Tipping goes a long way with the staff, and they live off their tips. A small tip will guarantee that your drink at the bar is full all the time, or that your breakfast coffee...
