Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall this was a nice all inclusive property. The resort is well maintained and my room was nice. The room had somewhat dated furniture in the sitting area, but otherwise was clean and nice. The staff were all friendly and the front desk staff even sent a nice birthday surprise to my room. Meal options were good, as was the option to get breakfast and room service to the room as part of the all inclusive. My only issue with the meals, is that the resort would frequently change the meal times at the buffet or at times in the restaurants and only post a notice outside of them, so I was refused breakfast once at the buffet for coming at 10:30a when it was supposed to be open to 11a and went to dinner one evening at one of the restaurants only to find out that they were closed. The resort should update the hours on the app that most of the resort uses. The pool and beach area are very nice and service there was excellent. The casino is smaller, but still had plenty of machines and tables and was not overly crowed. Close and within walking to shopping and the butterfly farm. Overall, it was a nice stay and a very good option in Aruba.

For the price we paid, is not worth the food, the service. We couldn’t t attend any restaurant because they said it was fully booked, but there were so many tables available and it was huge place.. RIU NEEDS to upgrade if they will continue to charge like this .
