Hotel Riu Playa Blanca - All Inclusive

Hotel Riu Playa Blanca - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"Pros: The staff were all amazing - Maricruz from the buffet was the sweetest lady ever, and Carlos from the Sports Bar was awesome, remembered us the whole time. From the Limon bar in the adults only pool, Liuana was amazing - she kept us well libated, serving new drinks as we were finishing our current ones without us even ordering -- definitely made the pool extra fun. Security was really on top of kids who weren't supposed to be in the adults-only pool and adults who'd had a little too much to drink and needed to go take a nap. The room was great and clean, the A/C worked perfectly. The shows every night were fun to watch and the kids that were there seemed entertained and engaged (I did not travel with children). Only Con: The Pacha Disco was very mediocre, the music wasn't great the first night we went, and it stank of vomit the second time we went so we didn't go back after that."
