From the new protocols RIU has put in place to keep you safe to top RIU resort picks for every getaway, read on to start planning your dream vacation.

Stay safe with RIU

To help keep you safe throughout your stay, RIU Hotels & Resorts partnered with professional health and safety consultants to put together an extensive list of new protocols. Hotel occupancy has been reduced to a maximum of 60%, (or lower to meet local restrictions) and web check-in will be implemented where possible. Guests’ temperatures will be taken upon arrival and all employees will be wearing PPE and practicing physical distancing. All non-essential items will be removed from your room, surfaces will be frequently disinfected and hand sanitizer will be provided for every guest. In addition, restaurant capacity will be reduced and lounge chairs will be spaced out to promote physical distancing.

Now that you know how you can stay safe at RIU, check out some of our top resort picks for your next vacation.

For those dreaming of an adults only getaway

Whether you’re planning a romantic retreat or a vacation with friends, Riu Palace Baja California in Los Cabos is the perfect destination for an adults only getaway. Grab a margarita from the swim-up bar and admire the iconic El Arco from one of the oceanview infinity pools or work on your tan by the beach with attentive wait service. In the evenings, you can take in live music before watching the sunset over the Pacific Coast.

For those who want to keep the kids entertained

After months of trying to keep the kids busy at home without school or play dates, you can finally relax while the kids have a blast at Riu Dunamar. This Cancun resort is home to an on-site water park that kids – and kids at heart – will love, in addition to plenty of fun-filled activities and the RiuLand Kids Club for kids ages four to 12. While the little ones are busy, you can soak up the sun by the pristine shores of Playa Mujeres before enjoying a family meal together at one of the à la carte restaurants.
