“Definitely, it's not a five-star resort. Especially the front desk brings the standard down to 2 stars.I missed my connecting flight and ended up checking in 2nd day then I was sent out an invoice with no show fee of $120 USD. It took more than 2 hours to check me in then was given a room backing on to the lobby (Villa #24). It is noisy all night.I was told that they were over booked. I tried calling the hotel contact number and hung up twice.Cons:Entertainment is a joke. They were advertising for their casino.Kids' magic show at 9:30? It's too late for the kids.Watered down alcohol.Letting employees sell coconut in the resort?Front desk staffs are helpless, slow and don't care about the guests.No snack bar (hot dog, burger, fries, etc.). So called snack bar has food in the fridge.No lifeguard at the beach or pool.Pros:Food - Food is okay but restaurants close early. Restaurants are also buffet style. I heard that there is only one al-a-cart restaurant.There is a free shuttle if you book resort directly but have to listen to their excursion sales pitches.Water sports are free but had hefty training fee $30 for sailing training and then you are on your own.Wi-Fi is amazing, each room has an access point.Mini-bar is good. They provide water, Pepsi and beer.No room servicesNo show up fee of $120 USD even if you pay in full and don’t show up.”

“Went to Riu Bambu from 8/25-8/28. First and foremost the staff which include bartenders, waiters , cleaning crew and reception are impeccable. The property itself however, could use some serious upgrade. I booked 5 rooms total. Problems included electrical wall outlets that were loose and didn't grab the wall plugs to charge anything at all. In my room the iron and blow dryer were non-functioning. They only put 2 towels in the room when my room alone had 4 people. Oh, and the phone itself wasn't working so I couldn't contact front desk. I met only one condescending person at the front desk, his name was Ariel. My biggest problem was my mom got locked into a bathroom by the restaurant Ole and we couldn't find her for almost over 1 hour. Thank goodness the restrooms are regularly cleaned because that's when she was found. I am giving this hotel a 3, not because of RIU but the staff was great, they made the stay enjoyable.”
