Riu Playa Blanca: Amezing resort

Clean hotel, courteous staff, large and clean rooms, buffet divercifier, clean pool, clean and large beach. The tours offered are a bit expensive. The reception is listening. The only small problem, the staff do not speak French at the reception and the representatives of Sunwing either. Otherwise everything was ok..

Riu Palace Costa Rica: Awesome Riu Palace Costa Rica

Awesome anniversary holiday we were looking at an anniversary vaca all inclusive stayed at many many Rius looked at the Palace Costa Rica and were not disappointed. From the moment we arrived with Sunwing an exceptional flight coming and going early with wonderful flight attendance. We emailed Jordi Customer service with requests and he was fantastic. Every aspect of this Riu was terrific from the food to the alcohol to the servers the service the cleanliness of this resort is overwhelming. The [... read more] beach is good for Costa Rica not white or black volcanic sand. Our room spectacular had everything and more. We would highly recommend this Riu Palace Costa Rica the other side not so much. Thank you

Riu Palace Antillas: Great people, fantastic beach

Overall an ok hotel. Pros Great, friendly staff Great beach Food ok Comfy bed Cons Rooms dated and worn, but clean Pool did not seem very clean and was not very big. Too busy with activities for my taste.

Riu Palace Antillas: Nice Resort

Nice resort! Extremely friendly and helpful staff. We heard some rooms had been updated, but unfortunately didn’t receive one. Although the rooms could use some updates, they are still very nice. A lovely place for a honeymoon!

Riu Palace Baja California: One of Our Best Trips

Everything went smoothly and both Tripcentral and Sunwing service was great. The hotel was less than a year old and the facility was modern, clean, beautiful in every respect. Very simple design which appealed to us. The pool area is spectacular with great ocean views. Sunsets are beautiful. Beach is walkable and wide but beware of undertow if you go in the water. September weather was very hot and sunny every day. Bar service was excellent and by the pool service was outstanding. Great drinks. [... read more] The Capuchino bar mad excellent coffees. We used the buffet and enjoyed every meal. Good variety and always found plenty to enjoy. Terrific service there. Show area in the evening was comfortable and no bugs! Room was very nice with a great shower. We liked how quiet and low key the place was. If you wanted party action the Santa Fe is a 5 min walk.

Riu Guanacaste: Great Vacation

Rui Guancaste is Beautiful and Clean. The workers are very helpful and friendly. The food was amazing at the Buffet, always something to eat. I find that it gets really busy on the weekends due to locals. A few changes need to be made with booking Ala Carte, long line ups, they should do reservation in advance so people don't have to line up from 5 pm.

Riu Palace Las Americas: Everything we expected!

My second time here and got to see everything I missed the first time. Riu knows all-inclusive. Very impressed. The shows, the food, the staff! I dont think theres anything I could suggest to make the resort any better

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Average Stay

The resort was alright for a few days. The rooms were nice and the hotel staff were attentive. The resort was on the beach and two seconds away from Atlantis. The resort had an average buffet and BBQ station. The a la carte restaurants required that you line up 45 mins to an hour before they open so you can get a seat. The food was not very good. The pool was nice but music was very loud at all times so reading by the pool wasn't a great option. When it rained the only place inside the resort to [... read more] go was the bar, which had some shows at night. There was not a lot to do if the weather was poor. The resort wasn't really anything special and I certainly wouldn't want to stay there more than a few days.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Clean and nice but lacking!

The resort was very clean and the staff were SO Nice, however, it was definitely lacking on the entertainment... by that I mean just having things for us to do in general. No casino, games room, events, etc. I felt like we were being pushed to go to Atlantis when we would have rather stayed on the resort. The food was OK. Very underwhelming. Also, there was often no food available except for some hamburgers and hot dogs left in a fridge (for who knows how long..) in the calypso bar. The coff [... read more]ee at the calypso bar was amazing and the drinks were definitely not watered down like I’ve noticed at other resorts. Overall it was a good stay for 3 days, however, I wouldn’t have wanted to spend a full week or more there.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Pretty good resort

Our stay at the Riu was good. The hospitality was impeccable, the staff really want to get to know you and what you’re about so they can recommend fun stuff for you to do on the island. The beach is great, pools are too shallow for my liking but still fun. Entertainment is just a bit lacking so be prepared to do a lot of drinking, or spend nights at Atlantis which is just a short walk away. Depending on how busy the resort is, you may not get to eat at the restaurants, people are already linin [... read more]g up an hour before they start service, the buffet food is good though! Now that I know what it’s like, I may come back!

Riu Palace Paradise Island: 30th Anniversary at Riu Palace Bahamas

We did a 5 day celebration at the Riu Palace Bahamas arriving on September 8th. The hotel is gorgeous and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The beach is amazing. We went to Atlantis (literally right next door) several times to gamble and shop. After 9 pm the aquarium is open to the public at no fee. My only complaint would be that this is the only all-inclusive where you have to line up for the alacart restaurants, no reservations allowed. Overall, I would return in a heart bea [... read more]t :-)

Riu Playa Blanca: Great resort!

Hotel was amazing. Food was good, was expecting better. Staff was very friendly, they were always there to help and assist us and the activities were great. The beach is not amazing but it's really nice. Overall a great experience and definitely worth the price 8/10

Riu Republica: Best time ever.

Located not too far from the airport. Resort huge but very navigable. Use the post for directions and rooms. Bars, restaurants, great selections/choices/selection. Room pretty clean. Beach maintained.

Riu Montego Bay: Yaa man

Good hotel Very clean Good food Nice service. !!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Riu Negril: happy wife, happy life

It was perfect, we stayed in building 2, room 2017. best view of the bay and near the beach bar. Jenn Black of Tripcentral.ca was terrific at helping me get the most for money. the crystal clear water of the bay is outstanding from the beach we seen Stingrays, Starfish, barracuda and crabs. the staff at the hotel are extremely helpful and the food was delicious. ( Mandalay restaurant, pass on that, had better food at the mall ) Best dinner was at the steak house! Room was up to date and v [... read more]ery clean, we had a fresh pool 30 feet from our room a salt water pool about 150 feet away. and they had great nightly entertainment including a beach party. simply put, this is the best of the 3 Riu hotels I have stayed in.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Amazing Resort

Beautiful place to enjoy the ocean The food was great..The staff were always so helpful and friendly..A great place to relax and enjoy the entertainment at the pool and evenings!! Rooms are clean and comfortable. Fridge well stocked with enjoyable beverages.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Fantastic resort

We enjoyed our stay at the Riu. Pools were fantastic. Bathrooms were clean. Drinks were great. Restaurants were good, but they don't take reservations. You need to show up at about 6:00 and you will be seated if they have room or come to the 2nd seating at 8...I think it was. The buffet had the same things everyday for breakfast lunch and dinner. We really liked the jerk chicken which was an outdoor restaurant that had chicken rice and veggies every day. This was delicious. Also Capucin [... read more]o was great for coffees and desserts. We enjoyed our coffee here! Our room was on the 15th floor. It was freezing cold when we got there. It was set at 15degrees. We had issues with the a/c the whole stay. The floors were always moist. Not sure how to explaine it. At night I was cold with the a/c off. Room was not my favourite place. They came o fix the a/c and it seemed to fix the wet floors for a bit, but it didn't fix the problem. Floors were always moist! Loved the place but the hotel room not so much Also on the safety side of things. We found broken glass on the beach right next to our chairs one morning. Thank goodness no one stepped on it.....we removed it from the sand and notified someone to come clean it or remove that part of the sand from the beach area. Someone did come, but he was scattering the sand all around. Maybe he didnt understand us!!! They shouldn't allow glass onto the beach area. There was always someone at the entry way telling you to put a shirt on as soon as you entered the building. They should have someone telling people no glass on the beach as soon as you enter the beach area.

Riu Playa Blanca: Not my standard Rui

Let me start from the beginning, checking in was easy, rooms were very nice, clean, bright, bathroom very nice and big, resort is on a hill so the lobby floor is on the second floor, buffet restaurant was amazing you won't go hungry, beach sand very long, bars were great, many pools 1 swim up bar pool adults only 2 kids pools and 1 general pool . We went in Aug 2019 so you will find some bugs, rain, clouds, and ALOT of Columbians coming for 3/4 day vacations since it's their summer. The cons [... read more], very remote resort no sidewalks no where to go the city is 21/2 hour cab ride one way. They say it's 5 years old it looks older then that and there's no Rui sign when you drive up.

Riu Montego Bay: Great Family Vacation

We went to this resort as a party of 12 for a vow renewal. We were upgraded to a suite because of our renewal and our room was beautiful. 2 of the rooms in our group had a musty smell (building #1). Our group didn't complain though as they were not in the room a lot of the time. Food was amazing in all of the restaurants, our favorite was the Italian. Entertainment staff were great at getting people involved as well as coming by each morning and saying "good morning" to everyone. I was amazed [... read more] that they could remember everyones name since they must meet a lot of people all the time. Shout out to Chocolate, Abigail, and Purple from the entertainment staff and a very special thank you to Darrin in the buffet for breakfast and Shakira in the Italian restaurant. (She amazinginly remembered all 12 peoples orders - drinks included - from our meal 3 nights before) absolutely blew us away My only complaint was that they need more washrooms. There are only 2. One at the lunch buffet, and one in the lobby. Makes for either wet bathing suits tracking up to the lobby during the day or (I'm sure) people just going in the pool. Perhaps when they renovate they can add a washroom by the pool and one on the beach??

Riu Palace Antillas: Very friendly people

No complaints about this resort. Drinks and food were fantastic! Always lounge chairs available any time. People extremely friendly and will do anything to make your stay enjoyable; managers walk around and ask if there is anything they can do to help. Wide age group of people here. Entertainment around the pool is great and lots of different activities. Highly recommend this place!
