Riu Flamingos: Good value
Good value for money. Food, drinks, beach were all great. Staff friendly and were always willing to help. Entertainment staff were fun and included everyone. If I had to say something negative it would be that the towel service now limit how many towels you can have. I would just go to the towel service to exchange my beach towel once every morning and come day 5 of my 7 day stay they told me I had no more towels available. I wasn’t abusing the service, I would just ask to exhange my towel [... read more]
Riu Palace Costa Rica: Glorious!!!!!
This is our third year at the Riu Palace in Costa Rica. All of the Riu's are great, but the people in Costa Rica are very kind and informative. As usual, the room was delightful, the food was A+++++++ and the weather was great the whole week - lots of sun and warmth. Thanks Riu Palace - we will be back again. Sarah Fick
Riu Negril: Amazing resort, wonderful staff!
The grounds were kept immaculate! Everyone was very friendly & helpful. We went with my 4 & almost 2 year old, there was a lot of walking, but beautiful sights to see & a gorgeous beach! All the staff were wonderful & kind. They knew my kids’ names & were always greeting them! The food was delicious, we loved the jerk chicken hut on the beach! Excellent trip, we’ll definitely be back!
Riu Palace Paradise Island: Riu Palace Paradise Island
The hotel has been renovated and looks good but the pools are awkwardly placed. We upgraded our room to have a better view of the ocean but we could hear music and loud talkers even when our door was closed. The buffet was not the greatest. Not many choices. We went to one restaurant, the Steakhouse. My husband waited in line at 5:30 and we received an 8:00pm reservation. The food was terrible and cold. The beach was spectacular and there were many employees to help you set up your beach chairs [... read more]
Riu Palace Antillas: Fantastic Vacation
The service at this hotel is the best I have had. All of the staff made me feel special and ensured I had everything I needed. I was surprised at how good the food was in an all inclusive hotel. The room was a little dated, but it was very clean every day.
Riu Palace Paradise Island: Agent had poor communication
Our travel agent asked our group of 13 to call to pay the deposit by the next day. Then she went on vacation. no one at the office could accept payment. Then when the balance was due, the exact same thing happened!
Riu Reggae: Good resort
We thought the hotel was very clean, rooms were nice a d clean. Long walks back and forth to room if you weren't on 1st floor.no coffee maker in rooms just booze. Entertainment was very good as was food. Overall not a bad hotel
Riu Ocho Rios: What an Experience
I went to The Riu in October ‘2018 fabulous weather the grounds were emaculate and well kept. Friendly staff always accommodating,who went above and beyond. If you wanted your room cleaned it would be done after your day off fun. I liked the fact that there were always lots to do and the excursions were amazing!
Riu Guanacaste: Another great stay
We stayed here a second time and everything was great again. People friendly, hotel clean and food good. Nice to have a beach and pool area. This is a great place to visit in November because even though its still rainy season we lucked out and had great weather for both of our stays. This is driest part of Costa Rica so great in Nov. If you are staying on higher floors in back area where we were, the elevator didn't work both this year and last but we didn't mind the climb as it helped work o [... read more]
Riu Vallarta: Resort that will make you to return
We liked almost everything in this resort:the art deco style it is decorated in, reception(check-in/out took a couple of minutes). Staff is super friendly & helpful, no problems with English. Rooms and grounds are clean, frig is supplied daily. Washrooms are a bit dated and need renovation, be aware there is only soap & shampoo/shower gel supplied. Food satisfies everybody's taste & you can find something to eat & drink 24/7(no straws for drinks supplied anymore). We did not use the pools only t [... read more]

Riu Republica: RIU Republica was an amazing time! Would repeat in a heartbeat!!
This resort is for adults who want to have a good time and meet a ton of like minded individuals from around the world. It was a very refreshing experience from the usual all inclusive resorts as this one is adults only and has a different vibe. I made a ton of new friends from Canada, the USA, UK and Argentina as well as some new Dominican friends ...mind you I have been to the DR 5 times before ...this trip was the most memorable, the event staff was amazing and the restaurants were ok....

Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas: Great Resort
The resort was more than what I expected. Very fancy, clean. Good food, lots of options at any time of the day. The rooms were clean. The view of the beach was nice and you can see it from almost anywhere in the resort for example; lobby, restaurants, room, pools. No complaints. Would go back to the same resort if the price is right.
Riu Vallarta: Fantastic Resort
Cons - Not enough public restrooms - Housekeeping came very late in the day, like 3:45 pm and later. Pros- Food was great, my favorite was most of the meat, pasta, ice cream and desserts. Drinks - Wide varity available, tasty. Pools - Good size, with 16 build in lounge chairs and at least 6 booths with table and seats. Ocean was fantastic, not to rough. If you require a umbrella for the beach it cost 200 pecos a day to rent. Entertainment - from what I took in, it was all rea [... read more]
Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas: some costly omissions by sunwing.
The grounds are immaculate and kept exceptionally clean. We had a suite with an ocean view and a patio....made us feel welcome every time we walked into our room. The public areas including the pools are 5 star and are maintained all day. Bar service and poolside service was the best we have had in a long time. Our room was kept nice but some days the cleaning service came very late to clean our room...after 5 pm two or three days. After being out all day it was not a treat waiting in the h [... read more]
Riu Republica: Amazing resort
It’s close to the airport. The beach is amazing. Very clean and very friendly staff. A lot of food options. There is a water park and a great convenient/ souvenir shop on the main leave. There is also a great lobby area when you can hang up that’s close to a bar and you can smoke.
Riu Republica: fantastic resort
What an experience at the Riu Republica! We stayed Oct. 27 - Nov. 3, 2018. Cannot say enough about the food, rooms, vast beachfront, seaweed free. Many resorts have had their beachfront washed away with erosion. The beaches and pools were well maintained. Never had anything to complain about. Would highly recommend this resort to anyone wanting an Adults Only vacation.
Riu Ocho Rios: good
the grounds was wonderful but the room need lots of improvements.tv poor bà thtub don't run water out property toilet sometimes don't flush properly and the bed and room smell mold and there are roach the towels are very stiff
Riu Palace Paradise Island: Wonderful resort
My sister and I where very impressed with the hotel, the service, all the staff, the food was excellent. We would go back there anytime as we enjoyed it so much. I would highly recommend The Riu Bahamas for anyone looking for a wonderful vacation.
