RIU Land is the kids club at RIU Hotels & Resorts, available at the chain’s family-friendly hotels in beach destinations. The program is led by Calú, the sea turtle that serves as mascot, and runs activities and themed days for young guests, organized by a team of kids club staff.
How are activities organized?
RIU Land favors physical, outdoor, group activities over more sedentary options like arts and crafts or board games: pool and beach games, drawing, singing, face painting, and short choreographies or skits where the kids take center stage.
The club splits children into different age groups, with activities tailored to each age range.
Themed days: Pirate Day and other special events
The program runs themed days, including Pirate Day, with challenges and a treasure hunt, along with other days that combine pool games with group sports and individual challenges. Also includes Ecoland and Magic Circus Day, focused on environmental awareness and circus arts, respectively.
Calú, RIU Land ‘s mascot
Calú is the sea turtle that represents RIU Land and joins children in games, choreographies, and short skits organized by the club’s staff.

Water games, slides, and outdoor play areas themed around pirate ships, fish, water-spraying mushrooms, and dragons are available at select hotels offering the program.

Hi
We have just returned from our 4th visit to Riu Club Gran Canaria. We have all had another amazing time and my 4-year-old granddaughter ‘Chloe’ has had a holiday full of memories.
The Riuland team were amazing and a real credit to your organisation.
One team member called ‘Celia’ from France struck up a lovely friendship with Chloe and they seemed to bond instantly. Celia was a brilliant host, so energetic, fun and friendly. And I commend her social skills. Please if you can, pass on my thanks for making our holiday one of the best……..
thank you

Im currently at the Riuland in Negril Jamaica and I’ve walked with my 4 year old a number of times to get activities out of the sun. No one is ever there. It’s been really stressful as she needs to get out of the sun. No one has been helpful. They just keep telling me to go there and I’ve been during their hours of operation with no luck. I won’t be going to a Riu again because of this issue.

I am looking into the Ocho Rios in Jamaica and we will have 3 children with us; ages 4,7,10. I was wondering if they will be altogether or is the kids club separated by age?
Thank you.
