I went on a solo trip I felt safe the whole time. The property is clean and the staff is nice. The food could've been better but can't really complain when everything was GREAT. I recommend getting the elite the perks are worth it. I want to say Suge that checked me in with Elite was so helpful,I had a really nice bell man (sucks I can't remember his name), and most of all Evelyn in the Elite bar is the best. If you want good quality drinks make sure to find her. Everything about her is Great!!!

Had issues with room keys and internet. Then had a free return trip back to airport included in package. I went to speak about setting up my return trip to airport on 11/27/25. Spoke to Robert who is in charge of the destination packages told me to write down all my information so he can arrange transport. He looked at it said ok and told me to go back on Saturday the day before I leave to get information about when we will need to leave. I go back on Saturday and Robert then informs me that no they do not do return trips to SDQ airport only Punta Cana airport and I needed to email Expedia. He then turned and spoke to other people ignoring me. Later on Saturday the restroom light shocked me. This created a burning pain from my finger to my wrist. I have discoloration on my finger from where I was shocked. Once informing customer service, Anna Maria I was given some burn cream and told if it gets worse to let them know. Atmosphere was amazing but customer service and all around would I go back a big No.

The hotel was clean, well taken care of, and beautiful resort. The staff does not respond when questions are asked but they do hear you and walk away to go get any requests. It would be nice to hear, sure I can do that, or yes, I’ll be back. Most of the time I did not get a nod or yes when I asked for a glass of milk with my coffee for example. The pools were beautiful however, we did not receive a towel key so we were sent to walk across the resort ( which is big) back to the lobby to get one… it was mid day so a lot of check ins were going in, we had to wait in line. The food at the restaurants were not that good, we are not picky eaters but every restaurant we tried was a solid 5, needed salt pepper and some hot sauce options, not available. The best food on the resort if the BUFFET….. the beach was beautiful, the location is great. If you purchase any excursions with the guys at the beach or the resort, be sure to bring cash and expect to spend quite a bit since they will stop at many gift shops, beach restaurant, and tours that’ll push to pay for extras. I give this place a 3 because of the food mostly… the cocktails and amount of bars were great. But I would like to see Riu improve on the quality of food..

Wow… this place is AMAZING! The hotel is gorgeous, the food is next-level, and there’s something for everyone—whether you’re chilling with the fam or ready to party. We hit up a bunch of restaurants, but the steakhouse? Chef’s kiss. If you’re Elite Club, do yourself a favor and have dinner at the Elite Club restaurant. Honestly, being Elite felt like royalty—private beach, private pool, private bar, private everything. Plus early check-in and late checkout? Yes, please! The vibe here is unbeatable. The neon pool party? BEST party I’ve ever been to—hands down. The staff? Super friendly, taught us some Spanish, and made us feel right at home. People from other RIU resorts were sneaking over just to eat at our buffet because the food was THAT good. Real talk: The only meh thing? Room service. The menu is super basic—club sandwiches, ham sandwiches, chips and queso. Not great, but honestly, everything else makes up for it. Bottom line: If you’re heading to the DR, skip the other resorts and book Bravo Palace. You won’t regret it!
