Our overall assessment of this property is that it is over rated. Facilities are old, air conditioning in the rooms is awful, bathrooms smell like stagnant water, hot water is deficient, there is an extreme lack of security, people having sex in the swimming pools without security intervening, food was disgusting, entertainment was not entertaining and it was boring, and alcoholic beverages were substandard. We were relocated to another room after several complaints and hours of going back and forth with the front desk personnel to help us find a decent room. Communicating with the front desk was an adventure and very challenging. We were a group of 18 people looking forward to have a fun weekend and ended up disappointed. We will definitely not recommend this hotel.

Disappointed First-Time Stay at Riu Republica This was my first time staying at a RIU property—and unfortunately, it will also be my last. The overall experience at Riu Republica fell far below expectations. The rooms are extremely outdated, easily over a decade behind in design and upkeep. One of the biggest issues was the smell of sewage in the hallways and even in some of the rooms. I had to request a room change because of the overwhelming odor, which they attempted to mask with an excessive amount of bleach—making it even worse. The cleanliness left much to be desired. The sheets looked worn out, as if they hadn’t been replaced in years, and it honestly felt like a game of “Guess the Stain.” I’ll definitely be traveling with my own bedding from now on. The food was mediocre at best, and the entertainment was minimal. Despite the hype, the famous pool parties were underwhelming—I’d rate them a 3/10. The casino was also a huge letdown; it’s about the size of a two-bedroom apartment and didn’t offer much of an experience (2/10). The only highlight was spending time with my girlfriends on a quick getaway, but this resort was not up to par. The staff didn’t feel particularly welcoming—except for the team at the pool area, who were friendly and helpful. Overall, I can’t recommend this resort and won’t be returning.

The entertainment was absolutely amazing 10/10 Food 2/10 jerk chicken was okay and the Japanese restaurant was good. Rooms were outdated and the water smelled like sewage, the pipes were rusty and dirty. The drain was black as well as the shower head. The minibar was not stocked. The restaurant had flies, we had a sever used her hand to pick up dead flies from the table then used those very hands to set our utensils. The iron had rust coming from it that damaged our clothes. We were late for dinner because of that and basically couldn't get a table, we had to go to the front desk, when we did get a table there was really nothing to eat.

There were bugs in our room almost everyday. I know it’s tropical but we kept everything closed. The food wa not that great. To mak a reservation action you have to show up at the restaurant, eat right when they open or see something for later that night. It’s such an inconvenience. The liquor isn’t great. The pools are great. The party’s are fun. They provided transportation to one party at another location and not the other which sucks. The parties should be at the resort so people don’t have to travel. It wasn’t my favorite spot. Probli wouldn’t go back or recommend it. The beach was beautiful!

My experience at Riu Republica was incredibly disappointing. Our bathroom flooded and when we tried to get help from the night staff, no one could understand or communicate in English. We were left without assistance until the morning manager arrived. In the meantime, I requested towels to manage the flooding — they never came. They kept saying that the request was fulfilled but i clearly did not receive any extra towels. We spent the night going back and forth between different staff just to get relocated after I begged them that I was not waiting for someone to come in and service the bathroom after hours of waiting for them to even come to the room and check on it. When we finally got a new room, the air conditioning barely worked. The room never stayed cool, which made it difficult to sleep, and the bathroom looked worn down. I love Punta Cana and will definitely return, but I will never stay at this location again. The lack of service, communication, and overall maintenance was unacceptable. I highly do not recommend Riu Republica.

Not what i expected . I have seen over 60 people including me whose key cards stopped working causing us to get locked out of our room at all hours of the day. Management was rude and very unhelpful everytime and even when we would get a new key card it would still not work. My toilet handle kept breaking so I could not flush my toilet and i could not even close the bathroom door.

The outdoors were very well maintained, our room has a broken lock to our door, tv didn’t work properly, the sink and shower drains were clogged, water took long time to drain, towels look like the use them to clean the floors, bad smell. Linen of the bed with stains. Food was average, didn’t impress me, some of the restaurants were fine, breakfast was the same every day, the staff on the restaurants some of them were very attentive others had an attitude of not wanting to work, needs improvement on customer service. Music was annoying, expected to listen more Caribbean music. Checking in and out were quick and staff were very helpful. Needs more fun activities for the older groups.
