Likes: well run and managed hotel: housekeeping, concierge, service, information, maintenance, food service, bar tending, drink and food prep, entertainment, beach area services, grounds keeping and Xmas decor were outstanding. Dislikes: inconsiderate guests, improperly attired guests for the venue, and people ignoring basic safety rules.

This was our families first time staying at a Riu, and we had a wonderful time! Our 10 and 12 year old boys had a blast playing volleyball and met some really great friends! Our favorite restaurant was the general buffet, the specialty restaurants could use a little help. Other than that, The only real downside was that it was advertised that we would receive resort credits, but really they are coupons towards services. Not a true resort credit as we have experience at other resorts.
