Hotel Riu Vallarta - All Inclusive
"The facility was maintained cleaned. There were many food choices at the buffet. It was hard to get into the Steakhouse but eventually we made. You need to get there when they open or before 7 pm to be on the wait list."

"The food was not the best in general just the breakfast was good. The rest wasn’t. Also they didn’t have anything going on for adults in the night music till 11 and that’s it. The hotel next door with kids have way more to do. So wasn’t worth it"
