We had a blast here but the only thing I’d have to complain about is the rooms. Out dated and they could use some renovation. And these tiny tiny bugs were crawling all over the place including myself. I’m not sure what they were but they were super tiny. Other than that staff was amazing and everything else was great.

Aside from all of the negative and positive reviews, my boyfriend and I had a very great time. Food was great, drinks, pool, amenities, etc! The people were so nice, but I will say the women were not super nice. The only downside I will say is one of the cleaning ladies took my boyfriend’s charger. (yes we stripped that room to make sure we didn’t misplace it). I loved the different restaurants aside from the buffet! I would definitely rebook this resort!

The outlets were in poor condition. The rooms need minor updates. The staff was awesome. Dinner is first come firat serve-no reservations. Bambu doesn’t offer room service.

We like the beachfront access and all the cool activities like the RIU parties and the splash park. There’s lots of bad reviews about the food but we found them to be quite untrue as everything we had was good and did not make us sick. Obviously we stayed away from seafood

The shower had no shampoo or conditioner for guests — only a 2-in-1 “hair & body wash”, which appeared to be just like the same hand wash product provided in the bathroom. Shower flooded many times as the drain was not doing its job properly. The restaurants were not open until 10pm (as advertised), all of them closed as soon as the “limited number of people” was reached. Food was okay, nothing spectacular; a variety of appetizers and desserts were served, but there were only a few options for main dishes. Everything tasted fresh though. Pools were poorly maintained and got dirty very fast due to the huge number of guests. Bars were good with friendly staff making drinks all day — without pressure for tips. Beach front was a nice spot to relax and enjoy calmness. It is a cheat resort, don’t expect much. Good option if you have a low budget for a short trip.

Room was okay kinda small and lights only worked if the room key was in the box that activated electricity throughout the room. Wall plugs did not work in the room except but one. Alcohol was available but it was in a very inconvenient spot as well as the mini fridge. Room service was very quick and sheets seemed not to be switched out or not cleaned very well. Also seemed like since i spoke Spanish, employees seem to not care if i was being treated with kindness and respect.

The entertainment crew were fantastic. The servers in the restaurants were friendly and sing to us. They would go beyond the service of making sure we had drinks and were always cleaning our table. We were greeted with flowers in the morning at our table it was wonderful. The front desk was no help we checked I asked for the information of events and parties I just asked to download and app and figure it out. The app had barely information. The guests at the hor were awesome and friendly it felt safe among strangers the vibe was incredible. It was from the guests who filled me in on what was happening and they got it from the entertainment staff. Over all excellent totally recommend it. House keepers are great if you needed anything right away no problems. It was great !

definitely some areas that could be improved. The beach was beautiful, and the food offered a great variety. I spent most of my vacation on excursions and activities, so I only had about four days to fully enjoy the hotel itself. The staff was a mix of excellent and disappointing. During my stay, I witnessed a fight at the pool involving an employee. On another occasion, a guest pulled down his pants and urinated in the pool in front of everyone. I understand that the hotel can’t control every guest’s behavior, but experiences like these definitely affect your stay. One thing I found very frustrating was the constant interruptions on the beach. It was difficult to truly relax because vendors were continuously approaching guests to sell excursions, massages, and other services. The rooms were clean, but they could use some improvements. There weren’t enough electrical outlets to charge phones, and several of the outlets were loose or didn’t work properly, making it difficult to keep devices charging. I traveled with my daughter, so my priorities were different. If you’re mainly visiting to party, some of these issues may not bother you. Lastly, I’d like to mention the staff uniforms. I honestly felt sorry for the employees. This is the Caribbean, where the weather is extremely hot, many of them are required to wear long pants uniforms. I believe well-designed uniforms would look just as professional. Seeing employees working outdoors and sweat excessively because is Sad.

Broken shower door and patio door in our first room (we had to change because it was a family room that was directly across from the ‘party riu’ section where they had booming music all night—great for party goers, not so much for kids. Broken safe and dodgy air conditioning in the second room. Told someone would come fix the safe at 9, no one showed, said they’d come between 12-1, no one showed, said we could change rooms again so packed up yet again only to have someone finally show up and fix it leaving us to unpack all over again. Coffee/juice machines were usually out and we don’t drink alcohol much (I’m 19 months pregnant) so that wasn’t great. Staff weren't very helpful or all that nice other than a select few. Food was decent, beach was covered in seaweed, pools were alright, kiddie pool was not maintained all that well. Only one spot to get towels and you had to use towel keys to get them which would be okay except the resort is very spaced out so it’s a ton of walking. Also only 1 atm machine that is about a 15-20 min walk from the resort. Just unfortunate, but we made it work.

The resort itself was clean, the beach was nice, and overall our trip was good. The buffets were not great, I’d recommend only sticking with the à la carte restaurants for dinner, the Chilli’s one especially. One of our friends got extremely sick and was out for an entire day which we are unsure what from. Aside from the food, the resort staff were quite ignorant and rude. Even though this resort is an “all inclusive” the staff expect tips for LITERALLY everything. If you don’t have money in your hand they will not bat an eye at you. We got attitude from every single person we spoke to, even though we were very kind to them. Our friends got yelled at by resort workers for asking for multiple drinks, they really didn’t like making more than 2 drinks at a time. One night we got locked out of our safe and the staff refused to help us get it open for almost 24 hours, they did not provide any reassurance or assistance. We had to beg them to call the maintenance guy to come unlock it. The exact same thing happened to our friends. The RIU parties were great but we had terrible interactions with the staff again and the security was not controlling the crowd well at all. I really wish we had a better experience with the staff. This ultimately made us decide we will never be returning. I would recommend booking some excursions and going off resort to get away from it for a bit like we did. If you’re considering booking, prepare yourself to become used to the ignorance here.

The buffet restaurant was the worst; the food there was terrible. The steakhouse and the Mexican restaurant were good. In the rooms, if you turn off the light, the fan turns off, and the air conditioning doesn't cool enough. Most of the waiters were okay, but I can't say "wow, what an employee!" with any of them. I've stayed in hotels where the staff were excellent. Please tell the other cleaning staff around the hotel that it's nice to say "good morning" when guests are walking by. (No one greets you with "good morning," "good afternoon," etc.)
