Hi Andrew and Mona! It feels like ages since I've been in touch. I was wondering if you've had a chance to return to Riu Dunamar lately? We've been considering it, as we've heard that it has a more relaxed vibe compared to some of the other Riu resorts in Cancun. Travel costs have absolutely skyrocketed since 2022 - it's insane! We're constantly searching for the best deals for our Canadian dollar. So far, Riu Dunamar from Calgary for 9 days seems like a decent price at $5691 for two people. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and cheers! Chef Bari
Hi there! Yes, prices are crazy these days 🫠 we usually compare prices between Tripcentral.ca and Sunwing vacations. We haven’t been to Riu Dunamar since we filmed this video. We recommend joining the facebook group for this resort to see what people are saying about it - you can get real time answers to your questions from people who are currently there 👍🏻 good luck!
Just watched your vids on Riu locations…Dunamar, Palace Costa Mujeres and Latino to help us, as a group of 16 decide which one to go to. These have been extremely helpful..thanks!
Thanks for the video... Mexico resorts are getting crazy expensive now ... 2 years ago I went to the one beside .... Riu palace.... It was just 1750... But now I'm trying to book this in next year.. it is 2850 ... Canadian dollars ...
Yeah, sadly prices in Canada have gone up for everything 😢 we find that the prices tend to be lower if you book only a few months out from your trip 🤷🏼♀️ trip central.ca is a great place to look to compare prices - we use the classic grid 👍🏻
Great video, thank you for your effort. Quick question- since you have been to many Rius in Mexico, which one would you say has the best ocean swimming with kids? I am looking at Riu Dunamar or Costa Mujeres and don;t know where the ocean swimming would be better, or maybe I should consider Playcar? Thank you!
Riu Palace Costa Mujeres and Dunamar are right next to each other, so the beach will be the same.. and it’s excellent 👌🏻 out of the 2, RP Costa Mujeres will have a bit better food and service but otherwise they are very similar. The Rius in Playacar are older and the beach there tends to have a lot of seaweed. The Costa Mujeres area definitely has the better beach 👍🏻
I would say yes 👍🏻 overall as a resort, it’s nicer. The benefit of Riu Cancun is that it’s right on the main Cancun strip, so you can venture out for more action. Dunamar is not close to much 🤷🏼♀️
I’m going there in June and I really liked your preview. However, I would say that unless you know the medical station has a doctor, don’t say they have a doctor.
They’re very similar in terms of accommodations, food and service - but the main difference is that Latino is adults-only whereas Dunamar is a family resort

What's your favorite Riu that you've been to in Mexico (food quality, overall experience, etc)? planning a trip and want to get the most for the money! Or actually best all inclusive period, doesn't have to be Riu!
We loved the Riu Palace Costa Mujeres! It’s got great amenities, rooms and location 👌🏻 we also loved the Barcelo properties, particularly the Barcelo Maya Riviera, and the Hard Rock Hotel Heaven was amazing 👍🏻
Thank you so much for the video. We will be there in two month!
Enjoy your trip!!
You are amazing! Thank you very ery for all the details! Just booked this hotel for this saturday. Your content will be very useful!
Thanks for the kind words! Enjoy your trip! ☺️

Great video. I'm on my way there this coming weekend. Will be spending Christmas there.
Enjoy and Merry Christmas 🎄
@@WherewegoingNext thank you, Merry Christmas

Hello
Thanks for the video 👍
Is this hotel family friendly?We are thinking of flying at the end of June.
Thank you very much
Yes, this is a family resort 👍🏻
@@WherewegoingNext Thank you
Excellent job, thank u...im going in July and feel a lot better about it now
We hope you enjoy! It’s a great place!

@@WherewegoingNext thank you for your response, I just booked Riu Palace Costa Mujeres for October. 🤩
The swim up bars pools are adults only? Or kids can be in that pool too?
Shoot - we didn’t notice 🤔 the swim-up pool bars at Costa Mujeres next door were adults-only, so that’s likely the same at Dunamar
Hi. Thank you for the video tour. was the gym 24 hours?
I don’t think so.. I believe it opens at 7 🤔
Thanks I love the videos you guys posted
Thanks for watching!
Hi there, good to see you again. Just confirmed, you said you like Riu Dunarmar better than Riu Cancun isn't it ? Thanks alot !
I would say yes 👍🏻 overall as a resort, it’s nicer. The benefit of Riu Cancun is that it’s right on the main Cancun strip, so you can venture out for more action. Dunamar is not close to much 🤷🏼♀️
Hi if I am staying at dunamar... I know I can't head over to palace for restaurants but can I head over to use their lounge for drinks and coffee?
I don’t think so 🤔 as far as we know, non-palace guests do not have access to the palace hotels
Is there other hotels we can use if booking this one ?
You have access to Riu Caribe to attend the Riu Parties 👍🏻
What ones out of the Riu latino Riu caribe Riu cancun and Riu Dunamar are the Riu parties at?
Riu Caribe and Dunamar have the parties
Do you know if they let you do early check in?
It depends on availability of the rooms 🤷🏼♀️
Are there any street vendors on the beach? Or street near by?
No vendors on this beach
Did you have to make reservations at the restaurants? or first come first serve? Thanks
First come first serve 👍🏻
I’m going there in June and I really liked your preview. However, I would say that unless you know the medical station has a doctor, don’t say they have a doctor.
What kind of tours do they offer?
There are many options - eco parks, catamarans, pyramids, etc.
Is it hard to find shadow on the beach?
No, the beach is nice and shallow when you enter
@@WherewegoingNext is there plenty of shade on the beach? thanks
There are only palm trees on the beach, but they do provide good shade 👍🏻
What’s the major difference between riu Latino and dunmar? Stuck inbetween both
They’re very similar in terms of accommodations, food and service - but the main difference is that Latino is adults-only whereas Dunamar is a family resort
Is there air conditioning in the main buffet
Yes, there’s an enclosed section that has air conditioning

40 bucks a game is expensive
I believe that’s in pesos
