What they show in pictures is not what’s in person. My room was in bad condition. The drawers falling apart, rust all over the room, I found a bug next to the bed. I tried to mediate with the hotel to get a room change and was told by 3 staffs at reception to wait to speak to Juan from reception at 9am. It was 10:15 and Juan was no where to be found. After waiting and not being helped. I decided I wanted to leave the hotel, at this point I didn’t feel comfortable. I stayed for 1 night & they don’t want to refund me for the rest of the days I was supposed to be there. I ended up going to a much better hotel for the rest of my stay. Don’t stay here, bad customer service. Rooms in bad condition. It’s noisy at night.

We visited this Riu in November 2024 and had a great time. The beach was fantastic, the pools were great, and the food was excellent. The only negative for the entire trip was that food and snacks in the sports bar were not refreshed on a timely basis. If you want a late snack catch one of the buffets before they close.
