Excellent service and a hard working staff top to bottom. Great food, awesome beach front and pools for relaxing, and also plenty of activities available if you desire to stay busy. Very pleased and impressed with my stay and want to go back!
Loved our stay here! Had a great time at the pool, felt safe, staff was great, and the beach was beautiful, even with the sargassum. Will definitely be back!
We stayed at RIU Playacar and were very satisfied with our experience. The food was excellent — everything was delicious, with a great variety, and we especially appreciated the good selection of seafood.
We were given a nice room in building 7. It’s not brand new, but everything was clean and well-maintained. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the view from the room was beautiful.
Overall, we had a wonderful stay and left with only positive impressions.
Clean room was pretty good! Staff were awesome, very friendly. Buffet was delicious and full of options. Pool nice and clean. Something negative about the hotel was that it didn’t have elevators.
The staff & service were phenomenal - all of them! The property overall is very nice. It was difficult to keep a comfortable temperature in our room and the towels were very thin. The pool towels seemed much newer. There are three great pools, but only TWO stalls in the women’s restroom down there. ALWAYS a long line!
Clean room, friendliness, helpful staff, fast check in
