We were checked in with no power, no hot water, wet paint in the room, no restaurants open, and someone went missing. Terrible food at buffets, the worst liquor, and things were falling apart. It just was not a good experience at all

During my stay at RIU with my girlfriend for our Spring Break trip, not only did the power go out for 24hrs, but our room got up 85 degrees during the power outage. My girlfriend began to get ill due to lack of water quality within the resort, and was suffering from diarrhea and vomiting. With the toilets being unable to flush for a few hours during the beginning of the power outage, she was having to repeatedly use the toilet without the ability to flush any of it away. After a long night of little sleep due to the temperature of the room, we proceeded to head down to the pool to cool off for a bit. As we headed into the elevator, and began to head down to the lobby floor, the elevator shook and stopped abruptly leaving stuck in between floors. The doors opened only to show us the raw materials in between floors, leaving us trapped in the elevator for 30mins. To finalize our stay one of the girls at the resort was reported missing leaving us scared to go to the beach at all during our last few days.

overall the hotel was OK. The amenities weren't all that great you can tell it needs a good upgrade. I will say the most disappointing thing was the dining reservations, we tried to book a reservation to one of the four restaurants and was only able to get a reservation 2 out of the 6 days we were there. You HAD to book your reservation right at 6, you couldn't book it in advance and if you weren't there at that time, then good luck trying to get seated. Service from the staff was mediocre. What I did love was the beaches! Wow these were stunning and the beach was clean. Will I go back to DR? Yes. Will I go back to this hotel? Probably not.

The property itself is outdated, I can’t say I had a bad experience there though, I had AC the whole time, light never went out and water worked fine. The food is my only complaint tbh. And more outlets! The key definitely did stop working one night. They need to invest in updating the whole hotel. But overall I had a great time.

I stayed here for 6 days and 5 nights. We did not have electricity or ac or running water for that time. Someone also got kidnapped from the hotel. Food was horrible, they had the same food items in the restaurants. Rooms did not get cleaned, and everyone who worked there were unhelpful. Beach and water was nice.

An entire 24 hours with no electricity and no water. We were very kinda to the staff about the situation and they did not seem to care at all. I understand this is a budget resort, but the expectation was subpar food and weak drinks, not being unable to flush my toilet or brush my teeth. There should have been some sort of communication between administration and guests on the situation yet we were both metaphorically and literally left in the dark.
