Stayed some time ago at RIU BAMBU. I can recommend this hotel to everyone, food is good (you have different restaurants open all day), apartments are clean and close to the beach. The beach is nice and clean, not over crowded. The swimming-pool is nice, with chairs under-water sitting in front of the bar. The staff is nice also. I... more

Me and my partner are both 20 years old and went to the Riu Bambu for our 1st holiday alone together hoping for a laid back week in the sun. The holiday got off to a bad start when our Thomson flight was 4 hours delayed , we were off to the caribbean thow so our smiles didnt turn upside... more

I travelled to the Riu Bambu with my boyfriend from 10/06/09- 24/06/09. We're used to 3-4* SC beach holidays in Spain (Canaries), Greece etc so decided to save up and spend a little bit more this time round with it being my 21st Birthday a few days before we went. When we got to the hotel check- in was quick... more

Booked this holiday with Thomsons just a few weeks before we travelled. We went from 31.05.2009 - 14.06.2009. This hotel was part of 5 Riu hotels on the complex, and as much as we liked this hotel, the Palaces are definitely the hotels to go to! ROOM: The room was a good size, and the two double beds were great!... more

My partner and I have just got back from staying in the Riu Bambu. I can honestly say it was the nicest hotel I have ever stayed in. All the staff will go out of their way for you. The facilities are really clean and your rooms are cleaned every day and are left spotless. The cleaner even leaves little... more

Traveling with a young family, I have always been very cautious where we travel, this time because our original holiday to Cancun was cancelled at short notice we opted for the Bambu as we were told (By Thomson) we might be able to get inter-connecting rooms. On arrival we were told there were no inter-connecting rooms anywhere on the Riu... more

Animation team are brilliant and work very hard. Water aerobic sessions in the pool are so funny! Staff at the pool bar (Victor & Wilkins) are great barmen - no short... more
