I’ve been using Expedia for over a decade. However, this was my first extremely unpleasant check-in experience. We were told at the hotel that we need to pay additional $375 for our kids apparently Expedia didn’t process the booking correctly although I had a booking confirmation for 2 adults and 2 kids. After a week long back and forth with finger pointing Expedia denied our request for refund. Please be aware of a possibility of this extortion when booking this hotel. The resort itself is maintained but definitely outdated and shabby. Food was Ok. The territory is massive so be prepared to walk a lot. The shuttle between the lobby and the beach is very seldom.The beach is very nice and actually was the highlight of the trip. Kids club hours are odd. 3 hrs on the morning and 2 hrs in the afternoon. The stuff was friendly and welcoming.

Disappointed by the Lack of Cleanliness, Quality,

I stayed at Princess Family Club Riviera All Inclusive with my family, and unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. The resort looked worn down, with visible damage around the beach, pool, and buildings. Our room was dusty, had stained walls and mattresses, and wasn’t properly cleaned before our arrival. We checked in at 3 PM, only to enter a dirty, smelly room. Thankfully, I brought cleaning supplies and requested new towels and pillowcases. We were disappointed that room service wasn’t included, even though we paid for an all-inclusive package. Other resorts we’ve visited offer more flexibility, but here we were told we couldn’t bring food back to our room—an issue for my elderly mother who struggled with the long walks to breakfast. Food lacked variety and flavor, especially for those avoiding pork and red meat. Drinks were watered down, and higher-quality alcohol had to be requested. Calling the front desk often took 3–4 tries. One staff member even questioned whether my sister was a guest, despite her wristband, which was unprofessional and frustrating. Entertainment was limited, though the silent dance party was fun. We were constantly approached about buying into the resort chain, which became overwhelming. While we made the best of it as a family, I wouldn’t return or recommend it in its current condition. This resort has potential, but major improvements are needed.

The Riviera is a really nice property. It’s geared towards families, especially is you stay at the Family Club. Be prepared for long walks, as the resort is huge. Our swim-up room was nice, but dated. We loved the evening entertainment. They clearly put an emphasis on the quality of shows and performances. However, the food situation was underwhelming. The buffets were fine, but the a la carte restaurants were disappointing. They should have more daytime snack options, like other resorts, were you and get tacos, pizza, and other snacks, at anytime. Overall, the resort is fine, but there are many flaws.

My wife and I traveled with two toddlers (2 & 3). We rented a car and it was an easy drive to the hotel with plenty of parking. Overall it was a nice stay for 4 nights. However, there were a few cons that make me hesitant to visit this specific hotel in the future: Cons: -For us, the hotel felt too large. Family club is on one corner for the property while the beach is on the exact opposite side. About a 15-20min walk from lobby to beach. -Pools were almost too cold -mininum age of 4yrs old for family club activities. Wish we would've know this ahead of time. We were looking forward to different activities with our kids at the family club such as loteria, pinata, etc. -Limited buffet option at family club buffet -Rooms smelled and felt humid and moldy -Not treated the same as English speaking only guest. We are fluent spanish speakers. On a handful of occasions we felt that staff would treat english speaking-only guests more attentively than they would us. -annoying being chased down every day by someone "offering" extra perks to sit through a timeshare talk. Dont join the vacation club. -Poor wifi. Would constantly disconnect. Have to pay for premium wifi Pros: -free stoller rentals. This was definitely needed especially with two toddlers and such a massive property -the a la carte dinners were delicious! -great kid pool with slides -overall friendly staff. Our server from la vaqueria restaurant was fantastic. Wish i remembered his name but it starts witha B.

Great spot for families. Very family friendly with fun options for young kids. Food was always good with something for everyone. Pool facilities were great, beach was nice if a little crowded with chairs, but kids still were able to have fun in the sand and swim in the ocean.

EXCELLENT family and kid focused property. We stayed at the princess family club side and the kids pool was amazing as well as the kids buffet option and ice cream shop. The shows were great. With that being said, they had lots of options for the entire family at the main pools etc.. and lots of friendly staff, buffets, restaurants and more! Highly recommend

We stayed at the Princess Family Club, but you have access to all areas and ammenities of the Grand Riviera Princess. We went with our 3 year old granchild and he had a blast! The Family club has a pool for small kids, a playground, a kids club and a restaurant, all with Pirates theam. They also have an "Heladeria" (icecream shop) decorated as in the 50's that was a great addition to our stay. To get to the beach it's a long walk, but they have carts that take you and are part of the fun for the little ones. The pirate restaurant it's very cute and although it's smaller than the restaurants at the Grand Princess, they had many options and all the food was very tasty. It was perfect for breakfast before the beach. There is a bar at the beach and they have que kiosko too where they serve simple food @ 12.00 pm for those whe want to stay longer (burgers, hot dogs, french fries, etc). The big pools of the Grand Princess are very close to the beach, and they have a buffet restaurant for lunch that opens @ 12.30pm. They had an offer that you pay 15.00 usd per person per day and they give you access to the Platinum Club. We took this offer and were very happy to do it. They have a lounge with delicious sandwiches and coffe and drinks, the pool is small but private and it was perfect to relax during our last day. It also includes free room service 24hrs and a private area at the beach with drink service. The beach was not the best (but being originally from Cuba, we are spoiled)

This place was very family oriented the kids did not have any issues playing with other kids. The food in the princess family club buffet was not the best. Very dry over cooked food. The snack Rivera is where I would recommend going to for food. A few safety things I would recommend would be making sure all patios have the lock on, not every room does. Thankfully ours did but my mom’s did not. Another thing I would suggest for the company would be to put a chain lock higher up on the door. Young kids can easily get out when they should not be. Overall was a great vacation!
