    Best bang for your Buck

    My son and I went with some friends to Mazatlan...was my birthday while we were there...Amazing trip. Clear resort. Everyone was super friendly. Fun atmosphere. Clean big beach with lots of places to sit. The restaurants and food were super good. For the price we paid it was well worth it. Will definitely try to comeback one day!

    Birthday vacation

    Great hotel and location. Staff was friendly and always helpful. Hotel was beautiful. The only thing I would add is more events for adults only.

    Best experience

    This was our first trip to Mazatlán and I’m beyond satisfied for choosing RUI we are coming back. The staff: Armando, Rafael, Nancy, and Alberto were what made our experience the best!
