Great Family Vacation Spot
Read More
We had such a great family vacation at Riu Bambu during Spring Break. The beach and pool choices were excellent. There was a tremendous variety of food at the buffets and themed restaurants. We have 6 yo twins, so the little kids’ pool and access to the Riu water park was a lifesaver and allowed my husband and me to relax while the kids played for hours. They loved getting their faces painted at the kids club too. The weather couldn’t have been better and the staff was stellar. They were all such hard workers and very courteous and professional. Our family fell in love with Noel and Carolina, but there were many others (I didn’t catch their names) who were great and helped us have such a great trip. This was our first time in the DR. We will definitely be back and highly recommend Riu Bambu, especially for families like us who have younger kids

Trip during Covid 19

This is a very good hotel room was clean staff was great property was keep clean. The beach area was beautiful. The pool bar was closed due to Covid and the hotel let the kids run ramped!! I think because not many people want to travel at this time there were many locals there. It's great to mix with the locals but kids should not be jumping off the tables in the pool meant for the pool bar. I use the gym ever day and it was also very clean. Yoel was the trainer and worked me out could not be more thankful for him showing me around the gym and helping with great workouts. Andy69 was there in the mornings and was a great guy also. I will be back next month loved the pace and travel right now is very cheap

Great hotel
Read More
When we read the reviews on the Rui Bambu we actually tried to change it. So glad that we couldn't. Beach is amazing along with the pools. We found a pool at the back of the hotel still within the grounds that is not common knowledge to everyone. Perfect! Room was clean and tidy and all appliances worked. Did not find any of the staff rude or unhelpful, always looked after us either at the bar or restaurant. Highly recommend the Ole restaurant. In my opinion some holiday makers are extremely rude to the staff and quite honestly, I would be rude back. They work expectionally hard and and could not fault them. Please ignore a lot of the reviews as we could not this beautiful place. Thank you for a great holiday.
