Resort could use some updating but it was nice enough for our group of 6. The road coming into the resort is very rough ( huge potholes that really need to be addressed especially since multiple resorts use the same road. Food was good, drinks were decent. Rooms were basic but dont spend much time in them anyways. Beach was nice but the ocean was pretty much red flag everyday, lots of seaweed as well. Still didnt stop us from going out and enjoying the waves. Just be careful if your not a decent swimmer. Front desk personnel are horrid, expect big tips to do even the most basic parts of their job. Will also talk crap about you and be disrespectful right in front of you when trying to switch rooms. Room Key cards kept failing for everyone in our group, so many trips spent going back and forth to get re-magnitized. RIU really needs to be like most resorts and put the door key in the braclet, would make life so much easier. Onsite gym is very small and most of the stuff in there is broken or needs some repair. Also has no fans so it gets very warm quickly. Servers at the buffets and resturants were amazing and actually helped make the most of our vacation. Shout out to Sandy (Chuggy Chuggy) who went above and beyond to really make our groups experience awesome! Overall we had a great trip but the experiences dealing with the front desk personnel would def make me reconsider staying here again.

The staff was friendly and the food was good. The room smelt musty, which might be because of the extreme humidity. There were a couple of times where the other guests would play extremely loud music. Tried calling front desk and no answer so I had to call room myself.

I made the best of my stay, but this resort is really for the 18–30 party crowd. It’s outdated, doesn’t look, smell, or feel clean. My sheets were stained, I found a huge cockroach in the bathroom, and many areas like the ice machine and vents were rusted. Furniture was old and squeaky. They claimed to upgrade my room, but I had no view and was placed next to a noisy staff storage area—woken up daily at 5–6 AM by banging plates and carts. The liquor was terrible—watered down and low quality. Every mimosa I had was warm. If you like name-brand alcohol, bring your own. Food was okay; the jerk chicken stand was the best and the steakhouse was decent. The restaurant servers were the highlight—friendly, respectful, and they made an effort to remember you. Unfortunately, customer service at the front desk was poor. I never received the birthday champagne promised to my room, and no one helped coordinate decorations. A staff member at the steakhouse said he reserved and decorated for my birthday dinner, but didn’t follow through, even after daily reminders. If you just want to party and don’t care about cleanliness or comfort, it might work. But if you want peace, aesthetics, and better service, this isn’t the place. I wouldn’t stay at a RIU resort again.
