We went to Riu in the Bahama's. Hotel clean, staff nice. Now listen: look at all the reviews from this past May 2021 on other review websites too. What do they all have in common?
The hotel is outdated with restaurant sit down dinners! First come first serve for sit down dinners. This means at 5:00pm you stand in line for when the restaurant opens at 6:30. It's like fighting in lines during Christmas to buy a TV. Trust me it's aggravating wasting valuable time that you prepaid for only to stand in line every night hoping you can go to one of their sit down dinners. We only made the cut twice out of 7 nights! Believe me there were many angry guest who couldn't believe you couldn't make reservations any time! If you are ok with the buffet every night, go there. Trust-trust me, almost 2 hours per night waiting for 7 nights is 14 hours of waiting in line to enjoy a vacation meal. For that reason and that reason only, I will go elsewhere next year! This is a BIG deal. You are on vacation. You paid for this food and service! Go elsewhere.
