We originally booked this trip as a family vacation but with some last-minute changes, we were able to go away, just me and my husband. We made this decision about 2 weeks before our trip and every time we called the head office of RIU they gave us an incredibly hard time when trying to change the booking (I had paid for last-minute cancellation so it shouldn't have been a problem). They refused to guarantee us that the change could be made meaning we would be paying for our daughter even though she wasn't coming. We were very annoyed but, decided to deal with it when we arrived at the hotel. I am SO SO pleased to say that the hotel staff immediately made the change without any difficulty or questioning or anything. They were so accommodating and made us very happy right away without any hassle. Right away the trip started great, we were very thankful for this save in money.
Otherwise, the hotel is exactly as advertised. It is a 4-star so the food was good but not great. The specialty restaurants only offered a few changes in the menu except for their Asian restaurant which was completely different food than the normal buffet and a pleasant suprise. The rooms were clean, bathrooms updated but, beds were not super comfortable but it didn't disrupt us much. The pools were all fantastic, the entertainment was great, super family-oriented, and workouts by the pool and in the pool were fun. Overall a great hotel for the price, I would definitely go back!
