    Love this Resort!

    I can’t say enough good things about this resort! The people, the food, and atmosphere were absolutely amazing. The activity pool is the best. We have been three times since it opened and can’t wait until next year already!

    Disappointed

    Night 1 and we are already so incredibly disappointed. For what you pay as an Elite Club member, the quality of the room is awful. The rooms are super small, the hallways echo VERY loud, and the beds are very very stiff. Our first dinner was at the smaller Mexican restaurant and the food options were very limited. despite how the pictures make it look, it’s a very small resort. When we checked in, the woman gave us no explanation of the benefits to elite club.. we kept having to prompt them to tell us basic info about the resort. Elite club is NOT worth the cost at alllllllllll.

    Relax and enjoy the view.

    This is a nice hotel. I say 4.5 out of five starts. This is due to the food and limited pool entertainment/activities. The ocean and the hotel are beautiful and clean—a bunch of hard-working people day and night. The food was just okay. There are not many activities going on in the pool. Bingo every day gets old. All the fun is at the Riu Caribe. They take you and bring you back on a bus the hotel provides. I disagree with paying 200 extra a night to be treated as a VIP. Because we are all VIPs. You get an oceanfront, one pool, and a restaurant dedicated to VIPs. I would pay extra for oceanfront, but not 200+ a night. All rooms are ocean views. Our lady server in the middle pool was excellent! Our cleaning lady was on top of her game. Landy gets 5******* for sure. Ernesto was super attentive at the main buffet. Antonio at the steak house was on point. Recommend if you are coming down to relax. This resort caters to the middle-aged to older crowd. And we love it!
