Got back from this hotel this morning and I have NOTHING at all to complain about this hotel! It was just my partner and I who are both 20 and was our first long haul and we loved every single day we had there! Reading reviews before we went I was a bit worried about going but it was truly... More

Very friendly workers, always anxious to help...even the front desk. Other comments are right, many don't speak English. TV does have English (5-7 channels), German (3-4 channels) and the rest (20 or so) in Spanish. Electrical outlets in rooms WILL work with North American 2 prong standard outlets, as well as the Carribbean/Western Europe style. Drinks are generally made with... More

We stayed at the Riu Bachata the week of March 28, 2012. Processing through the airport was fast – much faster than in a Cuban, Mexican or American airport. Note: You pay a $US10 arrival tax here and make sure you put aside $US20 departure tax for the way home. Most tourists use American Dollars, although the Canadian dollar and... More

We stay at the Riu Bachta from April 2-10, 2012. This resort was very huge, clean and staff was very hard working and friendly. I did not like the beach, there were alot of rocks in the water, we had to be careful where we swim. Our friends loved the pool, there were 3 pools. I Loved the buffet had... More
