Rating8.1Adults OnlyEleven venues total across restaurants and bars, all included in the 24-hour all-inclusive rate. The four specialty restaurants (Kulinarium, Grill and Steakhouse, Dolce Vita, Bambu) are dinner-only and require reservations — but unlike many Cancun resorts, they typically don't fill days in advance. Same-day booking at the front desk or concierge is usually fine. The standout at lunch is the poolside Jerk Station: skip the buffet that meal and go there instead.

Gourmet, Fusion
Gourmet fusion à la carte, dinner only. The most formal restaurant on property — long trousers required for men. Menu changes periodically and leans toward creative international dishes rather than a single cuisine. Worth booking once during your stay if you want a sit-down dinner that feels different from the buffet.
Signature dishes: Gourmet-style cuisine
Steakhouse, Grilled Meats
Poolside steakhouse serving grilled meats à la carte. Open-air terrace setting makes it the most scenic dinner option. The kitchen is praised for its beef cuts, which hold up better than the buffet proteins. Book on arrival day — it fills faster than the other specialty venues.
Signature dishes: Best beef
Italian
Italian à la carte for mains, buffet for starters and desserts. Standard Riu Italian format — the pastas are serviceable, the starters buffet better than average. Dress code applies (long trousers for men). No advance reservations needed — same-evening booking works.
Asian
Asian restaurant with à la carte mains and a buffet for starters and desserts. Draws mixed reviews — the format is fine but the dishes lean generic rather than specific to any one Asian cuisine. Good option if the other specialty restaurants are full.
International Buffet
Main international buffet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with live cooking stations and three themed buffet nights per week. Breakfast is the strongest meal — the variety is solid and the live station gets busy fast. Dinner quality is inconsistent; food temperatures draw the most guest complaints. Dress code at dinner: covered shoulders for men.
Signature dishes: Themed buffets (three times a week)
Traditional Jamaican Barbecue
Poolside Jamaican barbecue, lunch only. The single most praised food item at this resort — authentic wood-fired jerk chicken and sides. Walk-up, no reservations, casual dress. Don't skip it.
Signature dishes: Traditional Jamaican barbecue
Bar menu
Lobby bar, open 24 hours. Full range of included spirits and mixers. The go-to for late-night drinks after the pool bars close.
Bar menu
Evening plaza and lounge bar. Good spot for pre-dinner drinks before heading to the specialty restaurants.
Bar menu
Poolside bar with swim-up service. One of two swim-up bars on property. Active during the day with music and crowd energy.
Bar menu
Second poolside swim-up bar. Slightly quieter than Mojito depending on the day's programming. Both serve the same full bar menu.
International
24-hour room service with international menu. Useful for late arrivals or early departures. Included in the all-inclusive rate.
