Hotel needs renovation. Elevators super slow and one wasn’t working the whole week we were there. Constantly waiting for elevator. Food was awful and alcohol was crappy nothing name brand. All food was so bland. Their specialty restaurants were the dining halls and the food comes out for lunch the next day. Steak was thin, tough and literally the same food we got earlier in dining hall. No ambiance in the restaurant. Rare to see someone actually taking orders at the pool for drinks. Pool bar was closed due to cleaning. Beach and pool parties were fun evening entertainment not a lot of options. Kahoot should not be a nighttime entertainment option. Housekeeping was great. Evening food options awful cold hard bread and buns. Cheese for nachos was watered down and cold. I ate hot dogs all week as the buns and hot dogs were good every thing else stunk. I would not stay at another RIU again. Fruit tasted like not ripe and pineapple cores not cut out so had to eat around them. Beautiful beach area. Even breakfast and deserts were bland. Don’t waste your money on Catamaran ride with lunch at beach. Food was awful there too. Again drink selection was limited. Maybe if you are 18-20 you might not care about type of alcohol or food taste. Massage was ok but nothing to write home about. ElTimon restaurant two doors down was excellent! Food on Island restaurant where your boat docks is excellent too.

I did stay in the 14th floor and two of elevators didn’t work so it took me on average 15 to 20mins to get to my room. Also my room key stopped working 6times!!! So that was very annoying. Not impressed at all

My room was clean and i had a great view of the beach and pool area from the 10th floor. Hearing the waves hitting the beach constantly was great. Sometimes at night there may be people down there and loud, but im from Nyc so it was just fine. If you're hungry after the buffet closes then you are limited to burgers, franks, burritos, or nachos at the sports bar. I kept missing the buffet times but did get to eat there and it was good and i was full. Staff is helpful and coutreous. The beach is a little small but i found my spot each day and i was good. I was on a solo birthday trip and i would stay again. Nice hotel 😃
