🌴🌴 RIU PALACE COSTA MUJERES FULL TOUR

[@LindsayMcHone-vi3yi]

Thank you so much for posting such a thorough video tour! This video is the reason we booked our stay at this beautiful resort! It didn’t disappoint! Everyone is so friendly and the whole resort is amazingly clean!

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yay! So glad you enjoyed it as much as we did! Thank you for watching and glad we could help ☺️

[@lesterphipps2737]

Thank you for the BEST resort videos on KZbin! The minor details as well as QR codes make our decisions much, much easier. Went to Riu Palace Mexico at the end of August. Absolutely LOVED everything about the resort, especially the food and employees! Thanks to your videos, we have already booked the Riu Caribe in April...and may even book one at this resort in July or August. Will keep my eyes on rates every day. Thanks again, and can't wait to see the differences in the Palace and regular Riu hotels.

[@WherewegoingNext]

Thank you so much for all the kind words!! 🙏🏻 we first visited the RIU Palace México 10 years ago for our honeymoon and loved it as well - and have been going to RIU hotels ever since! Have a great time at Caribe and let us know what you think! ☺️

[@GB-nu6ow]

“Great resort. I’ve been 4 or 5 times, including the Dunamar next door. Great beach with tons of trees for shade, which is on the top of “must have” list. The food is great which is typical of all riu palaces. You can’t go wrong at this resort.

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes agreed! It’s one of our faves 🙌🏻 all-around great resort 👌🏻

[@stephaniebally4479]

Does it get much seaweed in summer

[@WherewegoingNext]

@stephaniebally4479 not much, this beach is shielded by Isla Mujeres

[@violetg3878]

[@WherewegoingNext]

Thank you for the lovely compliment 🥰 hope you have a great trip and glad we could help!

[@luvablesweetnsassy]

Great walk through thanks! Can you use the water park at the Dunamar is you stay here?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Thank you! Yes you can 👍🏻

[@davidng407]

Hi Andrew and Mona, thanks for another excellent report. I hope other people appreciate your level of detail! I love the way you use waypoints, and also warn people of possible dangers. Is there a town with a 5th Ave. like in Playa del Carmen north of the Cancun airport? I guess downtown Cancun is too far away. take care

[@WherewegoingNext]

Thanks David! We have been getting great feedback on our detailed tours - thank you for noticing! We don’t know of another 5th ave other than in Playa del Carmen 🤔 the Cancun strip is a bit of a drive away, so if you’re looking to explore a nearby town, this might not be the resort for you 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@livlife22]

Going there next month! Will you be posting a buffet tour ? 😊

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes we will!! 👍🏻

[@polbethian]

Hi have you never stayed at Catalonia Grand Costa Mujeres a few hundred metres away? I enjoy your videos and hoped to see that resort as the rooms are perfect and the resort looks stunning

[@WherewegoingNext]

No we haven’t - but we’ve definitely been eyeing it! Maybe one day! Ps. Thanks for watching our videos 🫶🏻

[@ohoque]

Great video. Love these detailed tours! Having visited most, if not all RIU Hotels in Mexico, which one would you recommend the most? We’re a couple in our late 20s. Visited RIU Palace Riviera Maya in 2021 and loved it there.

[@WherewegoingNext]

Hey Olivia! For a young couple like yourselves, we def recommend the RIU Latino! This resort is adults-only, right on the gorgeous Costa Mujeres beach, has tons of amazing entertainment and is pretty new (opened in October 2022)!!

[@ohoque]

@@WherewegoingNext Thanks so much, that’s really helpful ☺️ Can’t wait for more videos!

[@Jo-sl2rj]

Hi. Thank you foe another great vid! How far is the airport?

[@WherewegoingNext]

About 50 mins to an hour, depending on traffic.

[@Jo-sl2rj]

@ Thank you!

[@jenniferdorado]

Great video! Do you need to make reservations for the restaurants?

[@WherewegoingNext]

No, they are all walk-up 👍🏻 thanks for watching!

[@hotelcartelradio]

As if he was SCARED of the gym! He barely glanced 5 seconds of the gym. 😮 26:34

[@WherewegoingNext]

There wasn’t much to show - it was really small 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@jessseniac]

Hi, thanks for this review! Did you stay at this hotel? Would love to see a room tour.

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes we did! The room tour will be out in a few weeks 👍🏻

[@DANNOS1993]

Do people still tip the front desk to try to get upgraded room?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Not sure 🤔 haven’t tried 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@theonlyjstokes]

Do they offer transportation to other Riu hotels for parties?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes, they take you by bus to Riu Caribe - and Riu Dunamar is next door, so you can just walk over for their parties

[@GlenCraytonJr]

I think you so much for your reviews. These are awesome! OK I gotta ask, out of hard rock, Riviera, Maya, Rio, Costa, Mujeres, and Planet Hollywood, which one would you choose? Lol. I like your review on hard rock rivera Myya with the rooftop terrace. I’ve gone to excellence and usually do the two-story rooftop, Spectacular! But excellence didn’t have a lot of activities. So that brings me to planet Hollywood, it does look like you can do a lot over there. The rooms don’t seem too spectacular, the beach seems OK but what are your thoughts? And of course, hard rock? My wife and I are looking for something that’s nice, where there is a decent amount of activities Doesn’t have to be a lot, but not where we’re just going to eat and swim either. Please let me know! Thank you so much.

[@WherewegoingNext]

We would definitely recommend the Hard Rock over Planet Hollywood - the resort, food and staff are all much better! The Hard rock also has a large array of activities and live entertainment to choose from 👌🏻

[@mm27_14]

Trying to decide between here, Planet Hollywood Catalonia Grand Costa Mujeres and Grand Pladium!beach and foodwise, what would you recommend? Thank you!!

[@WherewegoingNext]

We’ve only been to Planet Hollywood and Riu Palace Costa Mujeres - out the of 2, we definitely recommend RP Costa Mujeres!! The food, service and rooms are far superior to the PH. The beach is basically the same (they share the same Costa Mujeres beach) and is amazing at both resorts.

[@debjanir]

Hi Andrew ....thanks for the video with all the details. looking to book for 7 nights with two teenage kids for end of this month. Would you suggest Riu Caribe or the Riu Palace Costa Mujeres . We love to spend a lot of time on the beach . We loved the Riu palace Riviera Maya last December .

[@WherewegoingNext]

We absolutely loved the RIU Palace Costa Mujeres! Being at a Palace resort gives you a bit better food and service - plus this one is next to Dunamar, which has awesome water slides 👍🏻

[@briannwo1900]

We are actually staying at this resort in April for 8 nights so this is good timing for another preview. How was the drink service on the beach ? Thanks for the great reviews.

[@WherewegoingNext]

Thanks for watching!! We’re not big drinkers, but we noticed the servers coming by quite often 👍🏻 the service at this hotel was great over all! Enjoy your trip and let us know what you thought!

[@briannwo1900]

@@WherewegoingNext we will take a taxi over to the Riu Latino while we are there to check it out.

[@WherewegoingNext]

@briannwo1900 awesome 👍🏻 make sure to check out one of the RIU Parties!

[@stuartbradford3702]

Hi question for a 10 year wedding anniversary would you say this hotel or RPRM as can’t decide between the 2. It will just be me and my wife travelling

[@WherewegoingNext]

We prefer the RP Costa Mujeres. This resort is excellent all around, and has a better beach. RPRM doesn’t have much going on at night either - whereas RPCM has a great bar plus access to Dunamar next door that has a disco plus RIU parties.

[@stuartbradford3702]

Thank you

[@cruisingwithcaptaincliff]

Hello - I am staying there couple nights to attend wedding. May I know which airport transfer you used to take y'all to the hotel? Since I am NOT staying at least 3-nights, the hotel will not provide the transfer. Thanks for sharing!

[@WherewegoingNext]

We always use Canada Transfers 👍🏻 you can book right through their website.

[@kwsj10]

Which Riu Palace would you say is your favourite? Do you have a top 3? We stayed here and loved it!

[@WherewegoingNext]

Our top three would be Costa Mujeres, Riviera Maya and maybe Peninsula

[@gabrielalopez7791]

Me encanta como explicas todo y mostras detalles importantes.El mar es calmo? Hay sargazo? Realmente es transparente?

[@WherewegoingNext]

The water is heavily dependent on the weather and the seasons - but on average, the water is very clear and calm. Isla Mujeres blocks most of the sargassum from this beach 👍🏻

[@gabrielalopez7791]

@@WherewegoingNext Gracias!

[@christinadasilva5641]

Which resort would you recommend between this one and the Riu Cancun???????

[@WherewegoingNext]

RP Costa Mujeres 💯💯💯💯

[@mobileuser3596]

Hey there! We went there around the same time you both were there and enjoyed it! Have you been to Riu Vallarta yet? as I am interested in that next vacation. Thank you 😀

[@WherewegoingNext]

Glad you enjoyed it! No, we haven’t been to that one 🤔

[@santoscolmenero7828]

Is there service on the beach itself? Like food, drinks, alcoholic beverages, ect.

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes they definitely have drink service on the beach, including alcohol 👍🏻👍🏻 there’s no food on the beach, but the snack bar is right on the pool deck not far away

[@santoscolmenero7828]

@@WherewegoingNext Thank you for the fast response! I’m booking a trip in July and all I want to do is sit on the beach with an alcoholic beverage in my hand all day 😂☀️

@santoscolmenero7828 you’ve picked the right place! Enjoy your trip!

[@jonathanotchengco9651]

I love all your videos. We will be in riu palace las americas in april. Can we visit this resort? Thank you!

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes you can - but it’s about an hour drive

[@figurinechamp6881]

Is there a beach bar or drink service for guests while you are on the beach?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes, there is drink service on the beach 👍🏻

[@trinhthao9858]

Is it a friendly family resort? Do you know how much they charged for kids over 12? Thank you for sharing.

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes, this is a family resort. It looks like you get about $100 off for a child up to age 17 on tripcentral. I guess it depends on which site you book through

[@gabrielalopez7791]

Hay actividades especiales para niños?

[@cuongdo9958]

Thank you. Just wonder, do you think Riu palace costa mujeres vs Riu palace penisula which one is better ?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Definitely RP Costa Mujeres!!! It’s much newer, has better rooms, entertainment and overall experience 👌🏻👌🏻

[@virginiafikry224]

Great video. Would you recommend this resort or Riu Palance Peninsula?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Definitely this one 💯💯💯 nicer, newer hotel and better food 👍🏻

[@calumlawless9928]

Is there a billards table here ?

[@WherewegoingNext]

I don’t think so I’m 🤔

[@WILLISTHEBOSS]

Is The Mini Fridge Free?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes 🙌🏻

[@sjm4396]

Are the hallways air conditioned?

[@WherewegoingNext]

No I don’t think so

[@nicholask8657]

I'm trying to decide... Would you prefer here or Rui Palace Mexico, and why? Where has more activities and where has better food?

[@WherewegoingNext]

We prefer RP Costa Mujeres 💯 the food is very similar, but this one has a much better beach, better rooms and more activities 👍🏻

[@luatpham3997]

Do they have a lot of seafood or good foods sir ?

[@WherewegoingNext]

Yes, there are always seafood options at the buffet 👍🏻

[@Mr.Jamie.D]

I got SEVERE food poisoning from the Mexican restaurant. The poor passengers and staff on the flight back. So sorry again, you guys 😭✌️

[@dianackiam9017]

Hi! Does this resort have a nightclub?

[@WherewegoingNext]

No, but the RIU Dunamar next door does 👌🏻 and being a palace guest gives you access as well 👍🏻

[@dianackiam9017]

Okay! Thank you

[@topknotstyle4370]

Do you have access to the waterslides at Dunamar? @@WherewegoingNext
