RIU has added a new hotel in Costa Mujeres, the Riu Latino. Located just 3 kilometres away from the Riu Palace Costa Mujeres and Riu Dunamar, The Riu Latino is a five-star establishment with 24-hour all-inclusive services, offering all guests the amenities and facilities of Riu Hotels, but with the added value of the exclusive service for which the adults-only resorts are known.

The chain, which is celebrating its 25th Anniversary in Mexico this year, now has 21 hotels at the six most popular beach destinations in the country, as well as in Guadalajara, Jalisco.

Riu Latino has a total of six restaurants: the main restaurant Moctezuma; an Italian restaurant Milan, an Asian restaurant called Geisha; a steak house offering up the best meat; a gourmet restaurant, Kulinarium; and Pepe’s Food, a grill buffet. It also has five bars: the lounge bar Mariachi, with a terrace; the lobby bar Velvet; a 24-hour sports bar; and pool bars Tequila and Mezcal, the latter being a swim-up bar.

Guests will be able to choose from standard double rooms to suites with views to the Caribbean Sea, as well as stunning swim-out rooms with private pools. The 594 hotel rooms will have a fresh, understated style with natural, light colours, inviting guests to disconnect and enjoy the tranquillity the destination has to offer.

In true RIU style, entertainment will be top-notch, offering a variety of activities that include five pools, a Splash Water World Water Park and Renova Spa, a wellness center that offers beauty salon and massage services.

Located on the beachfront of Bahía Mujeres, guests can also go out on a catamaran, try kayaking, and take a beginners’ scuba course in the pool. To round out the fun, club Pacha is open from 11:00 pm to 2:00 am, and guests can also revel in the various parties taking place at the hotel: Foam Fest, Silent Disco, and Beach Party.

Starting in December, Riu Latino guests will also be able to enjoy the famous Riu Party, held in the hotel theatre every Friday.

Travel agents are invited to become RIU experts through the RIU Specialist program. The course offers official certification as a RIU Specialist, which opens travel advisors up to many exclusive benefits, including the ability to showcase their achievement with a diploma, a digital welcome kit and 2,300 RIU Partner Club points when they make their first booking. Those who complete the final chapter of the RIU Updates section will also receive 500 bonus points.
