Sunwing is pleased to announce the opening of Riu Latino, RIU Hotels & Resorts’ newest product in Mexico, on the pristine shores of Costa Mujeres.

At Riu Latino, Sunwing customers will love the range of modern and sophisticated amenities suited to their every need and vacation style. The resort boasts a large stretch of beach and six outdoor pools, two of which feature swim-up bars, and offers ultimate rest and relaxation for couples at the on-site spa with a steam room, relaxation pools and therapeutic massage treatments. Vacationers with a penchant for health and wellness will enjoy the resort’s modern fitness facilities and daily fitness programming with RiuFit.

While 25 kilometres north of Cancun’s bustling Hotel Zone, friend groups have every opportunity for fun and excitement on property. The resort offers several thrilling water sports to try, including kayaking, snorkelling or catamaran rides along the Caribbean Sea, in addition to unlimited access to the on-site Splash Water World water park with slides. Vacationers can also take in live music and shows, RIU’s signature day and night entertainment and dancing at the resort’s own nightclub.

With exclusive RIU-topia inclusions such as welcome cocktails and in-room mini-bars re-stocked regularly, customers can also look forward to unlimited reservation-free dining at six on-site restaurants, from Asian specialties at Geisha to Italian favourites at Milan and poolside bites at Pepe’s Food grill.
