I liked coming during the off season. There were plenty of chairs by the pools to choose from. I didn’t feel I had to rush out and try to save chairs…that is prohibited, but we all know it happens. The pools were great and not crowded and if you didn’t want to be in the party pool you could choose one more chill.
Serving/staff at the pool would have been a benefit. Maybe they don’t have it during the more quieter months. We had to go get our drinks each time, which we just were be whiny and lazy not wanting to do it ourselves. We never had to wait long though.
Sports bar was great, as was the White Party. I suggest downloading the Riu app in advance or looking at their website to see if you will be there during their White Party or Neon Party to come prepared. I was not, but it was still fun.
Drinks were great! So much to choose from. Food…well, if you’ve been to all inclusive before then IYKYK. But overall, fine.
All of the staff were great. Cannot remember her name…Jamaican, young female, long black hair, braces, beautiful smile, probably mid 20s was absolutely wonderful! Loved her energy and wittiness!
Loved that there was a taxi service right on site and affordable. Airport to hotel is less than 10 min. Wish there was a ATM on site. Power did go out a few times but last less than 30-60 min.
You can not get extra pool towels. One towel per guest. Bring your own if you want more than one.
Don’t lose your key cards or towel cards, either.
