We are going to be at the Riu 6-29 - 7-6. Any other suggestions? I have heard to request certain rooms, did you? We have never been to Puerto Vallarta. We have been to Cancun twice. I know its different. How far is the resort from the beach? It looks farther than the beach was at Cancun. Did you use the Adult pool/swim up bar, if so, how was it? Was the resort nice and clean? I know this site is about the Riu, however, can you tell me what else you did there? Tours, going into Puerto Vallarta, etc., any hints would be great.
