this is rather late as we went in August last year! Obviously everyone's got their own differing opinions. For us this was a super first all inclusive holiday. We were greeted with fruity cocktails then directed to our rooms, which were basic but clean. The pools are lovely with really warm water. The beach is stunning lined witrh beautiful trees... more

We stayed at the Riu Mambo from the 21st March 09 for two weeks. Overall we had a good time. This hotel is 4* but personally we've stayed in dozens of 4* hotels and this was the worst one by far. Everything seemed tired and dated. Myself and my husband who are in our early 30's travelled with our two... more

We stayed here for our honeymoon and had a fantastic time. While there we did 6 trips - dominican discovery mega trucks, freestyle catamarans, dune buggies, charity night at the ocean world casino, ocean world and VIP carribean cruise to paradise island. They did amount to about $1,100!! but as it was our honeymoon we wanted to experience everything. All... more

This is the only hotel/resort I would return to in a heartbeat. Ignore the negative reviews- I think they must be more in relation to the people they are traveling with because this place is top notch. Fresh food, great service, beautiful grounds, in the most amazing setting. What else needs to be said? more

My daughter's I-pod and cash from her purse in the bureau drawer was stolen from the night stand within 2 hours after unpacking on the first day of checking in. Again on the last day of checkout of the hotel, the hotel tried to charge me a connecting charge from my room from a pre-paid calling card on the same... more

This was our third trip to Dominican. First two were great and we couldn't wait to go back. This resort was a big disappointment. We never believe the negative reviews. We thought you could make the best of any situation . . . and we tried. First, the rooms are not nice. Beds and pillows feel like concrete. Although we... more

Check in was fast and bags arrived at room within minutes. Room was clean and spacious enough for two adults and our ten year old. We hired a hairdryer for $20 and it worked fine Food was always good:- breakfast lunch and tea sometimes it got a bit busy but we always got a table I reluctantly have to agree... more

Well around the corner is an internet room that charges $10.00 for 15 mins, and $1.00 per page to print. After conferming my reservation he said come... more
