    Staying at Riu Bambu

    The hotel is nice, the food is tasty, beautiful beach,and clean rooms. The staff at the front desk was not nice, not smiling at all and not welcoming new guests

    Alcohol Content and Room Cleanliness

    It's the belief of my partner and I that the alcohol content was pretty weak. We tried various mixes and it still was weak to us. The room could have been cleaned much better for a guest arrival.

    Decent Stay Could be Better

    "Decent Stay, But Could Be Better" I recently stayed at RIU BAMBU and overall, my experience was fine, though not exceptional. Positives: The location was convenient, with easy access to the Beach. The staff was generally polite and helpful when approached. My room was clean and had the basic amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Areas for Improvement: The facilities felt outdated, and some areas could use a refresh. Noise levels were a bit high, making it hard to fully relax. Food was nasty. In summary, Riu Bambu is a reasonable choice if you’re looking for an affordable and convenient place to stay, but there’s definitely room for Improvement.

    We Had a Great Time Here

    This was our first experience with a RIU all inclusive hotel. We had a great time, the food was excellent and the service was incredible. The front desk staff were very accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful stay at RIU Bambu
