"august 2026 vacation"
The rooms are nice and clean. The bathrooms and rooms are spacious and comfortable. There are many food choices for all meals whether you are vegetarian or not. The kid’s show are entertaining. However, the adults’s show is not so engaging and entertaining. It needs a master of ceremony that can make people laugh and feel they are partipating
"Riu Playa Blanca Panama Review"
Unfortunately, my experience at Riu Playa Blanca Panama was very disappointing. The service was horrible, and many of the servers were not attentive or helpful. We often felt ignored and had to wait a long time to receive service. The towels also smelled bad, which was very unpleasant. Another major concern was the amount of flies around the food and dining areas. This made us uncomfortable and concerned about the cleanliness and hygiene of the resort. The food was also very disappointing. The menu had very little variety, and it seemed like they did not change the options enough during our stay. There were not many choices, and the quality of the food was poor. Overall, I expected much better from a Riu resort. The poor service, bad-smelling towels, flies around the food, lack of variety, and poor food quality made our stay frustrating. I hope management takes these issues seriously and makes improvements because the experience was not what we expected from this hotel.
