    Grateful The Company has promoted some we met there!

    Appreciate The Company Promoting From Within This was our 4th visit to RIU. Just from the people we have met I noticed 4 people having a new job that is a promotion. One was in the kitchen, two were ladies that sweep and another the RIU Party/Fitness Guy is now the chief! We loved every minute of our vacations and plan to return in the spring.

    Living In Paradise

    Everything was amazing, from A to Z to staff was exceptionally great, food was very tasty and the presentation was awesome, I would highly recommend this resort to all friends and family members, we had such a great experience that when we arrived back home on Saturday we booked again for next year already.

    Time for a change

    Honestly, this is our 4th time staying at this hotel since it opened its doors. The first three times were great. This go round we were disappointed in the level of food and the comfort of the bed. Having to eat the same food everyday at the pool wasn’t very pleasant. The steak restaurant wasn’t good at ALL! the breakfast buffet again the same exact food we ate the very first time. Not impressed at all. Paid for an all inclusive and ending up spending more money because we literally ate out everyday. Even the lobby smelled different. We would walk in to a relaxing spa smell and that has even changed. Needless to say, I think it’s time for a change
