    Pros and cons

    We were just there this past week and unfortunately our trip got cut short due to snow we had to leave a day early . Here’s what I have to stay about the resort . Staff are all amazing friendly . I was very disappointed in the food I read nothing but raving reviews but had a hard time finding more than 2 things I liked and I’m not a picky eater . The best was the steakhouse burger and Caesar salad the buffets were not great bland food , dry meats . They do have great entertainment I’ll give them that . If your wanting beach front definitely do not stay it’s a lot of walking we walked 20,000 steps a day from our hotel room all the way down to the beach your lucky if you can catch a shuttle . Beds suck super hard. blankets are just a sheet . They were not able to accommodate us our shuttle to the airport because we had to leave and day early on short notice so we had to pay a taxi 100.00 which was a little disappointing. I would assume they have shuttles constantly leaving the resort . Although this may be for some people we will not be back

    RIU tequila in Playa

    First time going all inclusive. The food choices were good and variety good. The staff were amazing, helpful and very welcoming. This particular RIU is outdated, a bit of a walk to beach (we had a bad knee in the group) the golf cart services were not every 10 minutes as the stated. Just a a tip, know that there are certain RIU areas you can’t be on at the beach. We were enjoying our day at the beach and were told we were in the wrong section of beach??? We moved but annoyed as we had been purchasing drinks from them.
