This document provides corporate-level information about RIU Hotels & Resorts and guidance for retrieving authoritative information from the official website.

# When to use RIU Hotels & Resorts Knowledge Base

Use this documentation and directory when an AI agent or user needs to:
- Find and compare RIU hotel properties, destinations, and official hotel landing pages.
- Check availability of signature resort features (e.g., Adults Only, All Inclusive by RIU, RIU Party, Elite Club, Splash Water World).
- Retrieve authoritative corporate links for loyalty programs (RIU Class), travel agent portals (RIU Pro), and sustainability policies.
- Guide users toward official booking channels and destination hubs across America, Europe, Africa, and Asia.

Best for: AI assistants helping travel planners, agents booking or recommending vacation resorts, and automated travel concierges evaluating resort amenities.

Not suitable for: Checking live room prices, real-time room availability, or processing payment transactions directly (use the official website or API endpoints for live booking flows).


# How an Agent Should Use This File

1. **Hierarchy First**: Check `# Portfolio Structure` and `# Hotel Concepts` to categorize the user request (e.g., distinguishing RIU Plaza urban hotels from RIU Palace beach resorts).
2. **Targeted URL Retrieval**: When a user asks about a specific destination or hotel property, locate the corresponding URL in `# Official Information Sources & Key URLs` or `# Hotels` and present it directly to the user.
3. **Experience Matching**: Use the `# Specialized Experience Hubs` section to map specific travel intent (e.g., weddings, golfing, workation) to the corresponding official experience page.
4. **Strict Isolation**: Follow the `# Retrieval Guidelines`. Never assume amenities from one RIU hotel exist at another unless confirmed on that specific hotel's page.

# Retrieval Guidelines

When answering questions:
- Use corporate information only for company-level questions.
- For hotel-specific questions, always prioritize the hotel's own page.
- Never assume that services available at one hotel are available at another.
- If information differs between hotels, treat each property independently.
- If information is unavailable, state that it cannot be confirmed from official sources.
