    We continue to be impressed!

    My fiancé and I just returned from our 7th stay at RIU Antillas. We have stayed at several other all-inclusives in Aruba and we haven’t found another property that offers the same bang for your buck. Keep in mind, this property is a little more active than some other resorts. Including music and guest competitions at the pool. The food is consistently good, the rooms are updated and clean and the staff is wonderful. The only criticism I USED TO HAVE was the lack of different beers besides Aruba’s own Balashi and Chill. However, we were pleasantly surprised to find they recently added Coors Light and Heineken. Definitely a welcomed addition! We want to acknowledge manager Alejandro. We chatted with him almost every evening during dinner and he always wanted to know what he could do to make our stay even more enjoyable and always available to answer any questions we had. We also want to acknowledge some of the outstanding bartenders and restaurant staff. Chong, Pierina and Camilo were always ready with a fresh cocktail. One of the main reasons we come back again and again is to hang out with these bartenders. They are fantastic! We also want to recognize our server, Susana. She is always excited to see us and always takes great care of us! We will be back again in a few months. Thank you!

    Celebrated Wife's 60th birthday

    It's a big all inclusive resort, but we never felt crowded or had to wait in lines. The restaurants were great. I like the special touch at Krystal in making cocktails at your table for dinner. The pools were refreshing and relaxed. A couple kids jumped in the pool and the staff removed them nicely. I liked the beach attendant. Helping us find a good spot on the beach. The cocktails were ok. They had a white party on Friday and it was very odd. They have a beautiful stage they should use that. The staff was always helpful. I had a massage and it was very relaxing. I spoke to other people at non inclusive resorts and they told me how much they spent on dinner for 4 at local restaurants. It was over $350. I would stay at the RIU again.

    Aruba 2024

    Hotel was clean and the staff very friendly and accommodating. Food was excellent, drinks average. Pool was closed for last two days of our visit due to flooding from rainstorm.

    Beautiful Aruba

    This trip was very special as my daughter and I went to celebrate her birthday. Aruba is beautiful and very safe . We stayed on the adults section beautiful resort ; the bed not the most comfortable booked 2 separate beds , when we went up to the room was given one bed , was too tired to have it changed as they had a room package ready so their was no opportunity to confirm my option but no big deal . To get a beach seat you have to getup very early to reserve with a towel on your chair to save a spot it rained quite a bit so the pool was closed fora day. The specialist restaurants you have to line up from 5.30 to get in as they do not do booking. This system is a pain wish it was not like this. Went only to the steak restaurant; as could not be bothered with lining up early also because it is the rainy season their was a lot of mosquitoes my daughter got bitten up at the steak restaurant as it is outdoor . Wish I had prepared with deet spray. The cleaning staff did a good job staff very friendly and accommodating. The guys on the beach if you tip will drag you 2 chairs . Did we enjoy our trip we sure did don’t stay on the resort. Explore the island and go to the city and see all the nice shops. The resort have a casino. It is very tight very hard to win. Played at the casino in the city a bit more loose but all in all very safe off the resort . Would I return to Riu yes I would and yes Aruba you have a part of my heart .
