    Pool and lagoon view
    Jackie S.

    The rooms and surrounding facilities are clean and modern which is always a bare minimum MUST for me. One star for cleanliness. The area and other guests are quiet and calm which is my preference. It's nice to go out but when I come back to my hotel I don't want to be close to any kind of party or noise. All I could hear at night was the rustling of the palm fronds by the pool. One star for atmosphere. Pool and lagoon are peaceful and beautiful. One star. The gym has a great view of the lagoon and it had more machines than a hotel gym usually does. One star. I l

    Service is absolutely terrible!!! Horrible hotel!! No running water???? Are you kidding me?? Can't take a shower or even flush the toilet! What kind of horrible place is this?! I took a video of it so they can't even deny it!! Check in process was super slow and you have to wait until 3pm not earlier. If you want a pool towel, they require a 300 pesos deposit and it has to be cash!! The towel is absolutely horrible, very thin, old, grayish, and falling apart! Housekeeping is not very fast, we came back around 4pm one after and they were still cleaning our room and we left at 5am that morning. After they cleaned the room, the floor was still dirty! They also don't change your sheets or exchange your towels. The front desk staff all have major attitude problems and never smiles and is very mean! AVOID!!

    So for starters, I came with a group of about 20 at first and we only stayed here one day and for breakfast I was pooped on twice within a 5 minute window. I was glad that checkout was in 2 hours because I was ready to go. You get what you pay for. It cost $58 to stay there. Didn't use the pool. Alligators lurk in the water where the edge of the hotel restaurant is. Yes signs are also posted but come on. From our room balcony the view was great! AC didn't work even after they came to so called fix it but hey, it was $58 to stay there.

    The hotel was very fresh and clean, looks just like the picture and the breakfast is good (but we were 3 people and it was only included for 2) even though the dinner is somewhat okay but wouldn't eat there everyday. It has a sweet view and the pool is nice. Negative things are that the hotel is on the side with the lake so you can't swim there, but there is a beach just over the street. Speaking of the street, it's not a lot around the hotel but there is bus stop almost just outside for less then a dollar that takes you both ways. Would preferred a mini fridge in the hotel room but except from that the room is pretty big and fresh and it comes with a good WiFi.

    Great hotel for the price. Make sure to get the lagoon view which is beautiful. There is an area to walk around by the pool and the room balcony we had was huge. Would definitely stay again.

    The wait staff visiting. Too busy to actual provide service.

    The hotel is new. The pool is nice too. The service is absolutely horrendous. When I order food, it is regularly 45 min or longer. And that's for guacamole. I can't imagine how long a cooked meal would take. I ordered ice cream over 30 minutes ago and it's still not here. There are two other tables besides me so they are not busy. In fact the waiters are gathered talking instead of helping. The bar regularly runs out of ice. They out of Modelo now. You can't order just anything odd the menu as they are out of much of it. As for the hotel room, we have requested towels three times because they only supply one. There are two of us assigned to the room. The ice machine is broke, fixed then broke in a constant pattern. I will not return here. Still waiting on my ice cream......

    The room was very spacious, clean, decorated modestly, and all parts functioned well. I especially liked that electricity worked when you inserted the key card into the slot, so this minimized energy waste--very nice touch! The hotel staff are all friendly, approachable, helpful, and speak English, which is especially important for me. Location is nice, as it is located along the lagoon, so there is a nice view of the water. There are bus stops everywhere along the Hotel Zone, which makes getting around the city so easy and cheap. Taxis are also always at the hotel, if you need that instead.

    Unlike other people here I didn't have a shitty experience. It was AMAZING ! This hotel is located in the beginning of hotel zone. Me and my bestfriend came to cancun early January right after New Years. After AIRBNB failed us I found Real Inn on Expedia. The staff here were super nice from the moment we got their. I believe the guy name "Jose" was super sweet ! He helped us get our stuff to the room and he also recommended us places to go and where to eat. Where to explore and how to get around with public transportation. Any questions that we had he answered with no problem. The staffs always greeted us the moment we leave and the moment we walk in. The rooms were super clean nothing to complain about at all. We had a beautiful view of the lagoon. Room was service okay just like any other hotel you would go to and we often go to the cafe downstairs to get drinks and food from time to time. The best part was that they had a starbucks there ! The view and the pool is amazing ! Our room had a fridge and a safe. As well as free wifi. For the price that you are paying for it's the biggest bang for your buck. If you want all the fancy stuff and what not go to the resort !

    Amazing spot in cancun.

    I never imagined I'd be writing a review like this. A…read morevacation should leave you with memories--not trauma. Unfortunately, ours left us with both. My husband and I came to Temptation Resort to celebrate his birthday, relax, and make memories together. Instead, we experienced one of the most frightening experiences of our lives. While we were napping in bed, the ceiling above our bed suddenly collapsed onto us. I woke up to the sound of crashing drywall and instinctively threw my legs up to shield my face from the falling debris. Looking at the damage afterward, I can't stop thinking about how differently this could have ended if I hadn't reacted in that split second. Looking back, there were warning signs. From the day we checked in, our room had a persistent wet, mildew-like odor and excessive condensation. I remember mentioning how strange it smelled, but I convinced myself it was just the tropical humidity. The room was both excessively cold and damp. What has stayed with me most, though, is not just the collapse--it's how we were treated afterward. I expected compassion. I expected concern. I expected someone to recognize that waking up to a ceiling crashing down on sleeping guests is a traumatic experience. Instead, I felt like the seriousness of what happened was minimized. The initial response was a lateral room change and upgraded wristbands for premium liquor, as if that could somehow make us forget what had just happened. Only after we continued to express how unacceptable the situation was did the resort offer an upgraded suite, steaks, cabana, and a (2) 25-minute massage. Those gestures completely missed the point. This wasn't about luxury upgrades or complimentary amenities. It was about our safety. It was about acknowledging the fear we experienced and taking responsibility for a catastrophic event that should never happen in an occupied guest room. Instead we got "things like this happen". Huh? To make matters worse, the resort refused to provide ANY refund--not even for the day the ceiling collapsed--unless we signed documents releasing them from liability. We were expected to sign away our rights before we even knew whether we had injuries or what the long-term impact of this experience might be. We declined. The emotional impact didn't end that night. For the rest of our stay, I couldn't relax. I suffered from extreme anxiety the next day, that warranted a doctor visit. At this time, the matter had still not been rectified. We were expected to wait around for the GM to speak with us, he never did- we never even met him. The sense of peace and security that a vacation should provide was gone. Instead of enjoying my husband's birthday trip , I spent the remainder of our trip feeling anxious, on edge, and constantly replaying what had happened. No guest should leave vacation with this experience. The front desk manager denied my request to any incident reports or doctor reports that included information pertaining to this situation. She didn't appear to have any remorse, empathy, or compassion. I'm sharing this not because I want sympathy, but because people deserve to know what happened and how it was handled. I hope the resort takes this incident seriously, thoroughly investigates what caused it, and changes how it responds when guests experience a major safety event. The photos tell the story better than words ever could. I truly hope no one else ever has to wake up the way we did.

    This is a AMAZING value all-inclusive resort…read more We arrived in the evening around 9:15pm, the check in process took about 40 minutes and we were able to hit the dinner buffet before it closed at 10:30pm. We got a ground level room with a deck facing the pool, it was clean and the mini fridge was stocked, it is restocked every 24hrs with water, snacks, beers and soda. The room did have a watery smell to it, but nothing that was a bother. The room's air conditioning worked great and there is a ceiling fan. There was shampoo and body wash in the shower. The shower head is adjustable so you are able to change the water pressure. The shower gets hot and stays hot. We used the gym all 6 days we were there, it has great equipment, 3 treadmills, 3 bikes, 3 ellipticals and weights. The only thing is the air conditioning doesn't work very well so be prepared to sweat! There were 3 restaurants on the property, Mexico Lindo, a seafood and an Italian restaurant. They all had amazing food, we ate at each one twice. You can also choose to eat at the buffet for dinner which doesn't need a reservation and there is a 24hr snack bar. The reason why I gave this resort 4 starts instead of 5 is the fact that you do have to be up at 6:45am if you want a reservation. However, when we were there, Mexico Lindo wasn't requiring a reservation. You also have to be up early if you want to reserve a spot at the pool or beach. Each guest receives one towel that you can exchange at the end of the day for a new towel or a towel card. If you lose your towel or towel card it is a $25 fee. There is a ferry right by the beach that you can take to Isla Mujeres which we did, it was $29USD per person which makes for a beautiful day trip. A lot of reviews say there is a gasoline smell at the beach, that was not the case. At times when the ferry left to Isla Mujeres it would linger for about 5 seconds then it'd be gone. It is a great beach. There is also free WiFi at this resort. The workers are AMAZING!! We had great service at the restaurants, bars, everywhere. They were all friendly and helpful. We never had an issue getting drinks at the bar and we went during Spring Break season.

Due to having a suite, we had butlers Romero and Isaías, and they were both AMAZING. They were extremely attentive, and whatever we needed was never an issue. If we asked for something, it was done quickly and without hesitation. You honestly couldn't ask for better service. We also had access to the Aqua Club, which was open from 7 AM-10 PM and offered premium liquor along with light snacks for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The waiters there--Daniel, Guillermo, and Eduardo--were great! They were even willing to make us our favorite shots that they had never heard of (blowjobs... Google it ), but they made them anyway! The lounge itself is super relaxing, with spectacular ocean views from the 5th floor. Now, onto the part we ALL care about the most: THE FOOD! There are several restaurants on the property to choose from, but our absolute favorite was Hidden Garden, which is Asian-inspired and run by Chef Mario. Everything we ordered was spectacular! Chef Mario even came out to our table, greeted us personally, and provided us with a menu curated by him--which I'm assuming was because it was my birthday... lol. They also have one paid restaurant called Carnivore, which is a steakhouse. Now, I am a self-proclaimed steakhouse snob, so I have to keep it real: for the price, it was mid. But for a resort steakhouse, it was good. The rest of the food throughout the resort was WAAYYYY better than expected--even the poolside grill and the food you can order directly to your cabana. Everything was well-seasoned and cooked to perfection. The ribs they made at the poolside grill every day were FANTASTIC! The head of culinary at the resort, Mr. Germain, is definitely doing what needs to be done because the food was consistently impressive throughout the property. Now, the second-most important thing for most people: NIGHTLIFE. Personally, I came to relax, and the overall vibe of the resort definitely gives relaxation. However, they do have a nightclub called Egos, which stays open until 1 AM. I went once, but it wasn't really my music or my vibe. If you're looking for more of a nightlife scene, I would suggest heading into the city. BUTTTT... if you love a good pool party, make sure you hit the Moët Pool Party because BABYYYYYY... it was LIT! Overall, the resort exceeded my expectations. The service, food, atmosphere, and attention to detail made for an amazing experience, and I would absolutely consider coming back!

However, what truly struck us both this time was the incredibly warm treatment we received. A hotel is only as great as its staff, and the team here is what makes it special. We booked a club-level oceanfront room, which included butler service. Our butler, Arturo, absolutely came through for us. He handled our restaurant and cabana reservations ahead of time and was instrumental in securing a late check-out on our final day. The dining at this all-inclusive is superb. For breakfast, Siete offers a decent buffet, and our waiter, Helvert, was incredibly kind and always took the time to chat with us. For dinner, DB was our top choice for elegant continental dining, complete with a live pianist. The manager, Susana, provided excellent service, the food was delicious, and the chef even came out to greet us. We also loved Hidden Gardens, a relaxed Asian-fusion spot with tasty food, impeccable service, and another welcome visit from the chef. During the sweltering day, the pool is the main draw. Lalo was always helpful in securing our requested cabana. They cost an extra $115 each time, but they are completely worth it to escape the intense sun. Our pool waitress, Marysol, befriended us and knew exactly what non-alcoholic drinks to bring us. My wife is a big coffee drinker, so we frequently stopped by the included Starbucks, where David the barista gave excellent service and loved chatting with me about World Cup soccer. Also, a big shoutout goes out to Lady and Daisy at the spa. They gave my wife and I heavenly massages. However, the absolute heart of the entire hotel is Marco, the extraordinary juicer at Siete! His positivity, jokes, and contagious smile drew a long line of people waiting for his blended drinks every morning. Thank you to everyone for making our trip so memorable!

    A Beautiful 8-Year Anniversary Celebration at Hotel Riu Palace Kukulkan!…read more On September 3, 2026, my hubby and I flew to Cancun, Mexico, to celebrate our 8-year wedding anniversary, and we stayed at Hotel Riu Palace Kukulkan in Cancun from September 3rd through September 6th. We booked an Elite Junior Suite Ocean Front View for two adults, all-inclusive, through a JetBlue Vacations package that we booked months in advance. Our package also included transportation from the airport to the hotel, which made everything so convenient. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed. The hotel lobby was beautiful, and during check-in we were welcomed with champagne. It immediately put us in vacation mode! Once we completed check-in, we received our key card for the Elite Floor and headed to our room. Our room was absolutely beautiful, and the oceanfront balcony view was breathtaking! Waking up in the morning and watching the ocean, and then seeing the sunset in the evening, was simply spectacular. We made sure to explore the property and enjoy everything the resort had to offer. We spent time at the beach, infinity pool, pool activities, Elite Club and pool restaurant, Pepe's Food, and of course enjoyed plenty of drinks. One of the highlights of our trip was our Tulum excursion, where we visited the Mayan ruins and learned about the history and culture. After the ruins, we enjoyed tequila tasting and then continued to a cenote, where we explored the beautiful natural water and hidden caves. This was an amazing experience and definitely something I would recommend doing while visiting Cancun! The resort also had several dining options, including Don Julio, the main buffet restaurant, Rossini, Krystal, the Steakhouse, the Cafeteria for cappuccino, and the Lobby Bar Salon. We enjoyed having so many choices throughout our stay. I also want to recognize the hotel staff. They were friendly, kind, respectful and always willing to help. Whether we needed directions, information about the resort, or simply wanted someone to take our picture, the staff was always ready to assist. I really appreciated how they would stop and make sure guests were having a wonderful experience. My only suggestion would be to add more adult entertainment in the evenings. There wasn't really a disco or dedicated dancing area, and I would have loved more live entertainment where adults could dance and enjoy the night. For me, the resort was almost too relaxing! I definitely needed a little more music and dancing. But overall, we had a wonderful anniversary experience! We relaxed, enjoyed the beautiful resort, spent time by the ocean and pool, explored Tulum, enjoyed great food and drinks, and celebrated eight years of marriage in a beautiful place. Would I come back? YES! Hotel Riu Palace Kukulkan is a beautiful resort with fantastic views, wonderful staff and plenty to enjoy. If you're looking for a relaxing all-inclusive vacation in Cancun, this is definitely a place to consider. Thank you, Hotel Riu Palace Kukulkan, for helping make our 8th wedding anniversary so memorable! Maria & Tony

    Hey Ya'll! So I wasn't impressed with this resort…read more Amenities (3.5/5)Overall, the amenities were decent. I really enjoyed the beach and the pools for swimming. They were clean and I had no reaction after. Pools that are not properly maintained give my skin the itchies after. Food (2/5)Breakfast buffet and the Mexican restaurant were the meals I mostly enjoyed. I did love the buffet, but let's be honest, that's probably because all I ate was avocado, fruit, eggs, and bacon anyway, lol. So that part worked in my favor. The Italian spot had good apps. The mussels were what I should have eaten for my meal. The rest was meh. Room and Cleanliness (3.5/5)The room view was absolutely beautiful and made me happy. That said, I cleaned the room well myself upon checking in. I had only one cleaning so my roomie would have the new room clean experience when she checked in. Room Decor and Structure (2/5)Not up to my personal standards in any way. The minibar is why a two and not a one. There was no headboard. The sinks had no drain covers. I was petrified and spent most of the week taking jewelry on and off so I wouldn't drop anything. I really enjoyed the view from the balcony, which is where i spent most of my waking time when in the room. I also thought this was an adults-only resort. It wasn't. No bueno! The staff was a solid 5/5, especially after the mishap with my dry cleaning. They were accommodating, kind, and appreciative of tips and our patience. I almost lost it about my clothes, but they handled it well and I appreciated that. I do wonder if the floor that we stayed on was an older floor we were on the fifth floor in rooms 545, 547 and 548. So I wonder if rooms on that floor were in worse condition than some of the other others they seem to have not been slept in for a while because when I cleaned there were lots of dust as if no one had been in there for a while . The beach was great and very almost private. The vendors weren't too pushy and they had decent pricing. Dollars go further...don't exchange to Mexican pesos!

    OMG I would say the worst, but it was some pleasant moments…read more We were he for a little under a week, and had to change our rooms 3 times; due to the air conditioners not working properly. The first night our room was like an oven. We changed the room and it was the same thing. The last room safe did not work or lock at all, so we had to lock our valuables in our luggage. While we were out on an excursion Items from our room was appeared to been searched, and missing. One thing that was the obvious was the my eyeglasses cleaning cloth, which was on the floor, that i always keep folded with the tiny spray, in its Velcro satin case. That's the moment when I discovered my son's Ray Ban's were missing. ( a birthday gift from his Nana) The best thing that about the resort was the coffee and me shop, and one restaurant that was RSVP only, that was still inclusive with the price of the room. I appreciate that excursion could be purchased on the venue. It's so unorganized when your purchases tour come to pick you up. We are informed to be in the lobby, there's so many people in the lobby, on different tours, that we were overlooked. Not only did our tour bus leave us, and we discovered within the SAME MINUTE, I'm talking seconds! They can not call them back to pick us up theirs no return or discounts, I had to pay another $120 for transportation ONLY to get to the park states over, otherwise I would have lost my money for two people. We manage to get there and rode our tour bus back to the resort afterwards. Mexico tours will definitely leave you at your hotel, jungle, or desert. And theirs no much phone reception. So have your ass outside on the curbs with a sign or your purchase records. I met a lady who always visit Mexico and was told that she always travel with her own fan. Like she brings a Carryon just for her fan only. This was a lesson learned. Service was friendly. They want to discord all your wristbands when you checking out. There was a cool night club on the venue that offered drinks as well. Overall I felt safe and irritated. I would selected a different resort on my next visit to Mexico.

    Ignoring the beach sea algae and stomach bugs we got, there were so many issues with our stay…read more Buffet food was dry and low quality, restaurants require reservations but were all full regardless, broken elevators, showers with damaged plumbing, drinks were all watered down (both regular and alcoholic, you can taste it and watch them pour water into the OJ, for example), they aggressively sell you excursions and addons at check in like a pirate ship outing, pool towels are constantly unavailable and waiting on being washed, the gift shop only had minimal medicines in case you get sick, the required wristband to wear have sharp edges and it's easy for you and your kids to cut each other while playing at the pool, the bedroom drawers aren't secured properly and can easily slide out and fall on your kids feet, etc. They're helpful with bringing drinks at the meals and things like the swim up bar at the pool are handy, the beach hammocks are nice, and they did a good job picking up our bags at check in, but there's still so many issues and so I don't plan on coming back.

    I was very disappointed with my stay. The room was dirty when I arrived, and its overall condition…read morewas poor. The bathroom was especially horrible--it was not clean and clearly not maintained. The hotel's common areas were also very uncomfortable because there was no air conditioning in the lobby or the restaurants. The beach was extremely dirty, which took away from the overall experience. It was also concerning to see staff serving food while sweating heavily due to the heat, creating an unpleasant dining environment. Overall, this hotel fell far below my expectations for cleanliness, comfort, and maintenance. I would not recommend staying here based on my experience

    Food sucks here.. what's the point of all inclusive if you only give people buffet.. all nice…read morerestaurants are buffet until dinner.. we are staying 5 nights but they only gave us 2 nights of dinner at the nice restaurant.. I thought this was all inclusive.. I tried to change dinner days but you can only cancel.. so we have only been eating at the buffet.. 3 days so far and only buffet.. should have checked Yelp before booking.. this place sucks.. also the concierge is useless.. called to confirm our one and only dinner reservation time.. she made me walk to the lobby because they are too busy to give me the answer on the phone.. that's such crappy concierge service.. they also try and sign you up for a time share.. so not cool ..

    If you visit this place it is easy to see why we need closed borders. It is nicer than ANY hotel…read moreI've ever been to. And what used to be "the world's largest telephone booth" would dominate ANY hotel in the USA. The people are overly friendly as long as you are not doing shady things. And with billboards offering services directly to your room and a hospital system where you only go if you're sick. The "grey area" is a pretty loose term. The entire hotel is illuminated with L.E.D.'s. The space is immaculate. It was 1/4 mile from the room to the lobby. The ballrooms and convention spaces are like a stadium. (Indoors or outdoors). The public bus arrives every (2) minutes and are often full. It is approximately .50 US to go 30 miles downtown. Just looking at the creative ideas a child could write a book . "This ain't Tijuana". The malls and beaches are protected by federal soldiers and the streets have checkpoints every mile. They obtain your information and destination. If something is off a militia is on alert. In NOLA people go missing all the time. They get discovered weeks later. Would never happen in Mexico . A drunk guy might get out the box, but it is very controlled. These citizens are: smart, efficient, implemented, hard working, drive excellent, fast, diligent, and gracious. It's like walking through a museum. Being from a popular tourist town known for food, this place is VERY advanced. Instead of lounging and hiding these citizens WORK to pass the time. If you need anything just ask a bartender. "Tip and pay, you'll be OK!" LOOK at the photos!

    Wonderful hotel! We stayed twice, three years apart and both times were fantastic!…read moreWe came here when my fiancé and I first started dating then again for our anniversary. Every single person that works at this property is out of this world! Kind, helpful and always going above and beyond to make things memorable! There's always a little bit of construction because they're renovating, so plan accordingly by calling with them to make sure the areas you want open, are open. The new speakeasy is super cute. We visited there one evening and have the best time and service! This isn't the same restaurant where you go to breakfast but at night is a Spanish tapas restaurant. Everything was fantastic but all the food on the property is really great! We especially loved to order lunch by the pool. All the cocktails are fantastic, even poolside! Rooms are standard JW with some of them recently updated with the others on their way to being updated. Yes, there is a sort of a musty smell in the air, but that's in most hotels. It's a very hard to keep those highly humid rooms from smelling a little musty. You just have to get over it and enjoy the time outside the room. Pools are super cute and the beach area is nice. There is an adult pool that is open during the day but wish it was open later! Lots of places in walking distance if you decide to venture out of the property but why would you need to! Easy drive from the airport and to the downtown or for departure to Isla Mujeres. We did not go to the island this time but last time we booked everything through the hotel and they made it super easy.
