I would come back to this resort! Our room was nice and clean, although it had a stuffy slightly mildew smell… That might be partly because of the tropical environment? The beds were comfortable and we slept well and the AC worked well, too. The bar staff was amazing! They were extremely friendly and attentive and gave great service and the pools were all nice and clean. The Japanese restaurant was closed when we were there, and the steakhouse was not good at all, but we were very pleasantly surprised with the buffet options every morning and night! The front desk was attentive and responded to our needs promptly… There was an active hornet nest on our balcony that they removed within hours while we were down at the pool! The RIU Fun events were nice, although they never seemed to start on time. During the day while we were hanging out at the pool bar or lounging that didn’t really matter too much, but it would’ve been nice to know that we didn’t need to show up on time to the evening events because we ended up waiting around. Once we figured out that the timing of things went a little late, we adjusted our plans and had a great time!

Property was great and the staff was as well. The howler monkeys serenaded us at night and let us get a glimpse of them chilling in the tree tops while talking a walk on the beach. The fresh fruits and coffee were amazing and we miss that already. It was a great experience and can’t wait to try another RIU resort.

property is dated but kept very clean. Room furniture needs updating, bathroom sinks. Food is just ok at the regular buffet. Best places to eat were the Italian and steak house. No sportsbar to watch a game. The staff work soooo hard everyday and they are very polite and eager to please. They made up for what was lacking

It was incredible! The only thing I did not like was the peddlers and people trying to sell you things along the walk to the beach. We stayed away from the beach because of it. Otherwise it was amazing! Food was great, property was clean and very well kept, the staff was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be returning.

I was skeptical about staying here at first based on the reviews they appeared to be a hit and miss. If you want luxury this may not be the place for you. We were there for a short time not a long time and it was suitable for my needs. The room is just what you see online. The only complaint is that the first night it was a bit warm. After that it was right on time. The rooms were cleaned every day.I wished they had decorated my room for my birthday but that was okay. The view was very nice and I shouted from the balcony on my birthday. The staff were friendly. I saw reviews about the language barrier, please be patient, they will find someone to help you. We had no issues with staff speaking English. I enjoyed the inside and outside bar. Brenda, Felipe, Bryan, Juan, are just a few that made my birthday so memorable! The breakfast and dinner was very good. Lunch was mid. Overall I enjoyed my stay and so did the group I was with. Find Carlos for a great spa service. My massage by Jaqueline was amazing. There is plenty to do here. If you need a sign to book here do it! Although the new site next door is opening October 4. I will be back soon. Thank you Rui!
