Need more washrooms for resort size, entertainment was mediocre and lacked fresh content. Would prefer more Canadian type content. The morning buffet was lacking freshness and choices were the same without variety. I feel quality is slipping with Riu resorts as this one was the worst so far of three that I have experienced. This resort was chosen for a wedding, which they also were not able to set up at the pre arranged time, sound system not working properly, and too many other issues to list. Wedding coordinator no where to be found, and a complete lack of attention to detail and follow up was experienced.

We have been to more than 7 all inclusive resorts and let me tell you, this place was amongst the best- Especially for the price! The food was amazing!!! Great variety of food options even though there are 5 restaurants. San Rafael was our favorite restaurant for dinner because they offer so many options here. When we first arrived we didn’t like how people seemed rushed or desperate while getting food from the buffet but it is a family resort which I guess may contribute to this desperation. I thought maybe there wouldn’t be any more food but that was never the case. This is a huge resort and everything is fast paced due to the amount of people.

This property was supprisingly very nice. Since its not a Riu Palace property I wasn't expecting much. I would say overall the food, property and staff were top notch. If I were to complain of anything, it would be the nighly shows. Very boring. Except for the live music.
