"100% must do"
Located about 45 min drive from Airport depending on the day . Nestled between to mountains. Lots of wild life birds , monkeys, turtles and of course iguanas. Rooms were very nice we had ocean view . Shows were par for Riu . Food was amazing whether it was buffet or à la carte didn’t make a difference. Lots of pool chairs but get out early. Beach is great for walking with lots to see but is very hot in the afternoon due to the dark color sand . Monkey bar off resort is great for a lunch and drink if you want a walkable little adventure. 100 % would do this trip over aagain
"The Roach Palace"
I highly recommend NOT staying here. Yes the view is amazing but not its Costa Rica and many other hotels have similar or even better views. This place is invested with roaches, and all kinds of bugs inside and outside the rooms. We had two rooms for our trip and we had to request both rooms changed. A bug crawled in our daughter’s ear one night. It was a disaster. Also, getting a reservation at night is crazy. No online system. You wait in line in the heat to hope you get a reservation for later that night. Please do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. This place ruined what should have been an amazing vacation.
