The hotel was very clean and well maintained and the rooms are nice. Beds are a little hard. The RIU Parties were a blast for both young and old. Enjoyed our time around the pools and met lots of nice people from all over. Try the water slides, not just for kids. This was my second stay and will probably go again.
