Our stay at Riu Kukulkan was great! Staff were friendly, food was good and the beaches were cleared of sargassum. Our only complaint is that there is zero night life at this resort. At night time there isnt anything to do except sit at one of the resorts bars. I did also want to note the temperature of the pools is like a hot bath during the day. Overall 8/10 experience!

Book It!

This was my first all-inclusive experience and Riu Kukulkan set the bar very high. Every staff member was genuine and so willing to help with any need. They handled any issues swiftly and w professionalism. The entire grounds were spotless and all meals were lovely. Very thankful for Pepe's grill. Parties at Riu down the way were so fun! Will definitely be back!
