"It was my third time at this Riu and I always recommend it to everyone. I traveled with my 3 small kids and they loved the Infinity pool. I used RiuLand as much as I could. The kids loved spending time in the childcare. Lucas and Alvin were great bartenders at Limon Bar. I also recommend getting a spanish coffee and going to see the sunrise"

"I’m writing this review after staying at this hotel twice, and unfortunately, my experience has been consistently disappointing. The food is extremely basic—far below what you would expect in Panama, a country known for its amazing cuisine. It honestly felt very low quality and repetitive. The only positive aspect is the staff. They are kind, friendly, and do their best with what they have. The pool is also nice and enjoyable. However, the biggest issue is the condition of the facilities. The hotel looks old, poorly maintained, and quite neglected. Everything feels outdated and not taken care of, which makes the overall experience very disappointing. I gave this place a second chance, hoping things would improve, but nothing changed. I would not stay here again and would not recommend it unless major improvements are made."

"We love this hotel. We got married here 13 years ago and decided to bring our daughter to show her our favourite all-inclusive resort. The rooms were clean and everything is well-maintained. The buffets were good but the a la cartes were only okay and the service wasn’t over-the-top. It wasn’t overcrowded and there were always beach chairs available. Lifeguards were plentiful! "

"Clean rooms, amazing staff and food"

"Receptionist was very serious, employees should look happy as they are enjoying their job."

"Great location right on the beach. Spectacular panorama at a very reasonable price. Nice swimming pool and deck area. Easy access to the beach. Room was modest but clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and it seemed “family-run.” The on site restaurant had a good free breakfast and other meals available, with a great view of the ocean. The hotel is hard to access because the road going to the hotel requires a very difficult dangerous and illegal turn across a busy highway, or you have to travel a few kilometers beyond the turnoff to find a place you can do a safe U-turn. The road in is bumpy, so just drive slow. Parking is plentiful but you have to drag your suitcase over the unpaved ground to get to the stairs going up to the reception area. No elevator. I’d definitely go back now that I know how to navigate the turn into the access road."
