Hotel Riu Vallarta
Hotel Riu Vallarta is a large beachfront resort with multiple swimming pools, including two with hydromassage features and one with a swim-up bar. The building contains approximately 550 rooms, each equipped with modern amenities such as a minibar, satellite television, and balconies or terraces overlooking the ocean or gardens.
The hotel was built as part of the Riu hotel chain's expansion into Mexico and contributed to the tourism boom in Nuevo Vallarta, which developed into an established beach destination from the 1980s onward. Its creation marked the growth of Riviera Nayarit into a popular vacation spot alongside Puerto Vallarta.
The hotel is part of the Riu resort chain, which is known throughout Latin America for all-inclusive vacations. It sits within the local tourism culture of Nuevo Vallarta, where visitors experience both seaside relaxation and proximity to local shops and crafts that reflect everyday life in the region.
The resort is located close to the international airport, making arrival convenient, and most meals and drinks are included in the all-inclusive package. The reception operates 24 hours a day, and free Wi-Fi is available in public areas, simplifying both arrival and your stay.
The resort features specialized facilities such as the RiuLand kids club and the Renova Spa with sauna and hydromassage baths. These tailored offerings cater specifically to families and guests seeking wellness services combined with beachfront location.
