The resort is a nice one - we loved our 4 night stay. Overall, the service was excellent. They had plenty of food options. The pools and the beach are great. The property is pretty and you have everything you need, but if you want a quiet resort, this isn’t it. It’s busy and noisy! We don’t usually go to resorts but the signs everywhere there said you aren’t supposed to reserve lounge chairs yet everyone was doing it - maybe this is just what people do at resorts?? It was annoying to not find a chair because someone’s flip flop or sunscreen is on it for hours. They had some lovely and talented dancers and performers in in the evenings over Christmas. The female saxophone player deserves a shout out, she was excellent! We really appreciated the efforts made to make the resort festive!

We were in the renovated property so it was good. Our view from the balcony was the mountain so could see birds in the morning and then monkeys. The pools were good. Easy access to the beach and had a fun time there. The waves were strong. They had some good activities but not enough. The food was good. The breakfast and lunch options was very limited. Other than the buffet, the dinner options was first come first serve so you have to stand in line to eat. Also the dinner was at 6pm which was way too early.

Nice location and very peaceful But, customer service was below expectations, room services were bad, Calling front office was not easy due to not answering the call,…

It is a beach front resort, but it has black volcanic sand. Swimming in the ocean is impossible. There is not even a life guard. There is nothing else nearby. Nothing. If you want to leave the resort, you have to book an activity.

Loved the all inclusive
Loved it. Had to request water everyday because they only come every other day to fill bar. I don’t drink alcohol or soda which was plentiful. Also had to request coffee so I could have it each day. The requests were sent but didn’t happen till next day. A bit delayed not instant service

The food and beverage was not up standards in the restaurants with only two restaurants which was not buffet styles. There were only two wine choices red or white which was horrible. They had no sparkling wine. This will be the last time I book with RUI.
