Gorgeous beach at a good property
The property is nice. The beach is fantastic! The food is a 7-8 - they could def do better in the area... but I don't think that's the fault of staff - I think the Riu just really doesn't prioritize this area. On a different note, the entertainment was really fun & absolutely terrific, especially the evening shows (one put in the courtyard, followed by one inside the stage/theater area). The "resort credits" were basically non-existent (when I asked about them, I was told I could have a coupon for $15 off a massage service - totally useless!). Service was great - it really felt like the staff genuinely cared about the guests/guest- experience!

Experiência muito boa. Staff muito simpático, opções de alimentação muito boas e praia maravilhosa. Não rankeamos 5 pela oportunidade de melhoria no ar condicionado (capacidade de resfriamento limitada ou com problemas que não resolveram) e área do vaso sanitário com exaustão insuficiente (ou com problemas que não resolveram).
