I have stayed at other RIU resorts before. As a matter of fact i stayed at the RIU a mile down from this resort back in march 2020 during the coronavirus and it was safe clean and nice. This place is dirty. Specially the buffet. Oh, horrible. They put a punch of people to make dirty and ugly looking and tasting food. The lettuce is always brown. This should speak enough. I got sick the 3rd night and i believe i had corona. My wife git sick the rest of the trip and when we cam back to the state we did a corona test and sure she has it. The worst place to be. Never again RIU

First the good. This is a brand new hotel so the property and amenities are in good shape. Rooms were cleaned and nice/modern. The entertainment team does an amazing job keeping people engaged and there’s plenty activities to do. New year’s was amazing and can say enough to thank Riu. The Mexican service is spectacular! Waiters bar tenders etc!! The gym is tiny so I feel for such large hotel the gym is way too small and always crowded. The food overall was average and needs improvement, the buffet wasn’t too good but dinner was a bit better. Not sure why one of the pools was way too hot (40 degrees Celsius) and the other pools were fine. Overall. It’s was a good experience and me and wife had a great time.
