“休暇”
+ 1人で宿泊したけど十分楽しめた。隣のリウカリブは系列なので入ることができ、リウパーティーにも参加できて良かった。ビーチに関しては想像するようなビーチってわけではないが綺麗で遊べるビーチだった。初めてのオールインクルーシブだったが、いい体験ができた。
− エレベーターが潰れていて1つしか稼働していなかったのでエラーベーター待ちの行列できていた。日本食レストランの歌舞伎はみんなが想像するような日本食ではない。あくまで創作料理として食べるべき。でも美味しかったよ。

“New resort with plenty of potential - but not ready yet”
+ New resort with plenty of potential - but not ready yet
I’m currently staying at the hotel and, having experienced it first-hand, I think it’s important to give a balanced review.
The hotel has only recently opened and, to be fair, everything is very clean, fresh and new. However, it is clear that the property still has a considerable way to go before it can genuinely be considered fully operational.
One of the biggest disappointments has been the swimming pools. With temperatures of 90°F+ (32°C+), the pool should be somewhere to cool down and escape the heat and direct sun. Unfortunately, the water is extremely warm and provides very little relief. In this climate, I would expect at least one properly temperature-controlled pool.
There are also still a significant number of floors and rooms undergoing renovation, with loud remedial/construction work taking place daily from morning through to evening. This can be quite disruptive and is not what you would expect when paying for a relaxing resort holiday.
The hotel itself has plenty of potential, and I’m sure that once the remaining works are completed and the operational issues are resolved, it could become a very good property.
Based on my experience while currently staying here, my recommendation would be to wait at least another three months before booking. Give the hotel time to finish the renovation works, resolve the operational issues and get everything fully up and running.
At the moment, it feels more like a new hotel still finding its feet than a fully operational resort.

“Bait and switch- find anywhere else to stay”
+ Save yourself a headache and find a different resort. I directly booked through the RIU app. 2 adults and 2 teens. Paid for 3 adults and a child ( ages 15 and 12). No flights just hotel. Flew in on Sunday. Double checked daily and even called ahead 48 hours prior to confirm our Oceanview jr suite with queen beds. Also pre-checked in and had copy of check in that was confirmed. At check in, we immediately received RIU palace bracelets, paid the hotel tax and confirmed the room. The man was about to give us room keys when the manager, Ira, walked over and denied us. We were heavily discrimined against. 2 other parities argued with staff at the same time we were. A party of 6 was yelling at staff because half their party was arriving on Tuesday and they separated them between caribe and peninsula. The person said they only had 3 rooms left. Ira the manager walked over and cancelled my reservation in front of us. I complained and said I have seen on the FB fan page that others were upgraded to villas. Why is my family being left out. I was just told "it is what it is". They then demanded I sign a release of liability for this issue. We said no we refuse. We then called customer service and they told us oh well go to caribe. We only asked for access to restraunts since my husband has severe garlic allergy. We were denied everything. No compensation. No upgrade at caribe. NO REDUCED RATE!!! Same price for lower level hotel. They told us they would have their RIU service drive us next door for free. As we were arguing, another party arrived. 5 people with a toddler. They gave them room keys, bracelets and signed them in immediately. I asked what a type of room and they said jr suite, same as us. I then argued about them getting in and well as the other man saying they had 3 rooms left. Split my kids and my husband up...2 to a room. They said no you need to leave now. We can confirm the discrimination. We then were called a public taxi and took a 1 min ride next door. At check in. I even called, texted and kept checking my riu app. I'm here now and my riu app still says I'm at the palace peninsula, when we are at caribe. Way smaller room. Full size beds, lower quality alcohol and not much for my teens to do. I would rebook ASAp instead of being told at the arrival reception desk
