    Lovely holiday

    Friendly welcoming staff who couldn't do enough for you. Special shout out though has to go to David in the buffet restaurant. Absolutely amazing service from him.

    Celebration at riu

    First solo trip. Had a blast. Staff was great. Food was moderate mostly buffet style. Steak house was better selection of all restaurants and jerk chicken heading towards the beach was the best meal on resort. The rooms where clean except for the foul smell from the water/ septic sewage... Over all staff was excellent. Very courteous and helpful. Lot of fun activities on site as well as all the cool parties. Yes I would definitely recommend this hotel. It's definitely for party and vacation.

    Awesome parties, music and dancing. However not the best for cleanliness of the resort or friendly staff

    If you’re looking for a PARTY resort - look no further. They are known for their RIU parties for a reason, and that did not disappoint. However, the amount of people and the crowds are quite overwhelming. Went as a couple, but it would be better with a group of people to party with. The food was good, you have a large selection at the buffet’s. The best was by far the jerk chicken! It is a very large resort, so be prepared to walk. Our room was the furthest from the main party pool/beach, so it was about a 8 minute walk. The main complaint would be the cleanliness. There was lots of trash scattered around, the pools were quite dirty, and the beach was not raked like all the other resorts. And the staff did not seem the friendliest, compared to other resorts we have been to. Overall we had a blast, it is what you make of it!

    Very good

    Hotel was good. A little outdated but I still found it clean. The food in some of the restaurants was quite bland but the buffet was good & the steakhouse was yummy 😋 The only compliant is the air-conditioning didn't work properly in the room & room service often forgot to replace water & coffee in our room. However, they really did a beautiful job of our room after cleaning using real flowers to create beautiful designs 😍 Our room was in front of the pool & bar pool so early every morning I got to witness staff cleaning the pools & pool side & constantly checking the pools ph levels throughout the day. Absolutely fantastic jobs been done here by staff that you wouldn't see over here in Europe. I'll definitely will be back again 😊

    Disappointed from the start

    This is definitely a party resort, but we knew that going in. Definitely better as a group of people and not solo or just as a couple. There are some quiet sections if that is the case. The staff don’t seem very eager to help you unless you give them extra money, including the Sunwing reps (that was who our trip was booked with). The room gets clean but not everything gets replaced - I often had to go ask for water at the front desk. One day we had no towels at all. The air conditioning in our room broke so it was SO hot and the front desk don’t do anything, they just say it’s a “general issue” and the technician may or may not show up for you. Many of our travel mates had broken ac and it was the same response all around. Will not be returning.
