"We traveled as a family of 3 with a toddler age 2. Overall, we enjoyed the all inclusive amenities offered at this facility. I felt there is something to keep my toddler occupied everyday -big shoutout to the kiddie water park. The food is fantastic at the buffet and the Sport Bar (24/7) and the drinks at all the bar are equally amazing. Since the resort is newer, the rooms are new and up to date with decors/furnitures.
There are few things that could have made the experience 5/5. First. As an interracial couple, beware you will get all kind of looks especially disgust from staff as well as fellow vacationer. Typically, I don't let these stuff get to me but when it's majority of the people you encountered give you the same look, things become uncomfortable. However, there are equally the same amount of people who are beyond great and we appreciate their kindness and friendliness. If you plan to book a la carte date night, not all the restaurant are equal and we were very disappointed at Kyoto. However, the steak house made up for it. We enjoyed the pools that allowed children and like that there are multiple pools dedicated for adults. Riu is very family oriented so if you want peace, I would suggest adult only. Our Oceanview room was beautiful. Big shout out to our housekeeper, Aliyah, for making the room extra special each day! Shoutout to Annalee and Kodi in the buffet. We're not a big all inclusive, but this visit might change our minds."
