Nov 18, 2024Excellent vacation
I had visit Aruba for the first time by cruise, but this was the first time staying at Aruba for a whole week at an all-inclusive hotel. I loved the RIU Hotel. It was very nice, beautiful rooms, pools, accessible beach area etc. It was a gorgeous overall hotel. I think the entertainment can work harder in terms of having more live music and shows plus the host at entertainment nights can level up a bit giving more animation to the people. Overall I enjoyed my stay and will love to visit again. I only hope we had straight flight to Aruba from Puerto Rico being a tropical island too. The big hassle was taking two planes and having to go through immigration twice. But that has nothing to do with the hotel. Thank God having a wonderful time at the hotel made us forget about all the tiredness of our flights.

Nov 14, 2024don't expect extras
Getting into the Steak house is like getting into a fancy nightclub who's bouncer picks and chooses who gets in and who does not. They told us line to get in start at 6pm --- but people passed us in the line with a pager and when we asked how they got a pager we were told they got there earlier, at 5:45. But line start at 6pm. (?). Others got RESERVATIONS! they told us that was impossible to do. By the time we left the Steak house line, it was too late to try the Italian restaurant. So we left the premise for dinner, money i didn't expect to spend. Also upon check-in we were NOT told you could get floats, snorkel equipment and other fun toys. I rented a floatie, cause i was not told the hotel supplied them. Why not put that on some paper you give us when entering? I didn't find out until i was heading back to the hotel and saw a postboard at the other Riu advertising that! The place is clean, but plan on only eating the buffett, unless you are a lucky one that wins the lottery into one of the dinner restaurants on premise.

A GREAT PLACE, IF YOU GET TO THE BEACH EARLY IN THE MORNING.
Getting chairs on the Beach is a real challenge. They allow guests to place towels on them early in the morning, even if they don't return. The sign says they can be held for two hours, but that's not enforced. That can easily be corrected by the staff. Location is perfect, the beach is wonderful. Drinks, breakfast and lunch are terrific, as is the wonderful staff. Dinner is so-so.

Nov 12, 2024Not accountable for missing item
I just got back from my vacation at the RIU Antilles Aruba. What totally ruined my trip, was a couple days in a necklace went missing from my room. I searched high and low nowhere to be found. I went to the front desk customer service. Told them that my necklace was missing. She called housekeeping and said they didn’t find anything. Well, I didn’t lose anything. Somebody took something. And her words to me were if you feel a certain way, you can call the police. It wasn’t very expensive. But it was totally sentimental. I never got it back. So I am totally disappointed and I will never ever stay there again. I felt like customer service was horrible with the way they reacted.

Nov 11, 2024Horrible restaurants, beautiful beach
The restaurant’s are a joke. Food was at best a 2. We never got into the steak house as you had to wait in line BUT they only sat two seatings with limited tables. The beach was beautiful but you had to pay off a beach attendant to get a palapa. Rooms were clean and nice and so was the beach. I’d rather pay more for a hotel elsewhere on the island that isn’t all inclusive
