    Our happy place ❤️

    Overall a wonderful trip. Our happy place. Our 4th time at the hotel. We love everything about the hotel. The staff, location, cleanliness, beach and location.

    Beautiful

    Staff the friendliest, grounds and pool exceptionally clean, found a different room for us the next day as we requested a better view, our bathroom lights did not work and we put a work order in every day and they were never fixed, housekeeping never left 2 hand towels and two days they took both hand towels and never replaced, mixed drinks could taste better but the bar staff was wonderful, never a wait for anything even during Christmas week, fully staffed everywhere, bell hops helped with cabs, pool needs a hot tub, pool staff always there to get you drinks, buffet food and specialty restaurants were not the best. Housekeeping staff very loud outside our doors every morning at 8am and woke our kids up- very annoying.

    Elite club is a scam and ripoff of 2,0000

    Paid 2,000 extra for elite club, exclusive pool area populated over half with regular people, drinks are no different, reservations to restaurants are a joke. What a waste of money! Mentioned this to staff they commented have recieved this complaint before...?

    Disappointed

    Mixed feelings. The entertainment is great, our room attendant did a good job, but the food was mediocre and the table clothes at the buffet restaurant were not fresh. Looks like they do not always change them between guests. That’s a turn off. We’ve stayed at different Riu hotels in different countries. We will not be back to this one. So sad.
