This is the worst resort I have ever been in. the room smelled like mold even though it seemed clean, the food at the buffet was absolutey disgusting. my sn had diarreah for 4 days after eating there. the hotel is old and extremely outdated even though the reviews said different, those were clearly lies. the workers seemed miserable only a few of them were smiling and helpful. i had a terrible time, i will never stay at another riu again. theres a reason why they are affordable, i rather spend more money and have a better experience. lesson learned. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME AT THESE RESORTS. ALSO the alcohol was the cheapest most disgusting brand that i have never heard of so i couldnt even get drunk !!!!

The entire family ended up with severe food poisoning requiring doctors visits upon our return from the resort. We didn’t use the tap water for tooth brushing or drinking. The linens had stains and hair on them when we arrived. The “upgraded rooms” are not truly upgraded just fun looking wallpaper added. The mattresses are incredibly old and not comfortable. Our ceiling was leaking water from the light fixtures and maintenance did not come when we called. Instead they decided to wait until morning and woke us up at 7am to do the work they said would be taken care of the night before.

It rained a few days, some heavy rain downpours, it would help if RIU provided golf cart shuttle services during rain downpours. Vacation guests were walking fast/running with umbrellas, this situation can become hazardous, guests can trip and fall on property.
