"I really liked the RIU resort. The food and entertainment were great. A big plus for the amazing staff who work there—they were friendly and made the experience even better. I had a really great time!"

"An honest review. Rooms are clean, but smell musty until you adjust the thermostat to 74 and low fan speed. Too much AC and humidity mix causes the smell. The resort staff are friendly and try their best to help you enjoy your stay, but language is definitely a barrier. I will not hold that against them because I can't speak Spanish either. Property grounds are exceptional! Amenities are abundant. Great for adults and children with plenty to do. Pool area was beautiful and the water park was great...even for our 2 year old granddaughter. Towel game is always in play but I had no problem finding a spot for 5 at 8:00am. Check in was relatively easy but they always try to upsell. I'll take care of you if you take care of me is a common theme. Doesn't matter which room you stay in you will hear everything outside your door. Bars....pack your patience, slow service....hold a $5 bill in your hand then they look at you. Drinks are good, but you may get faster service if you wait for someone to come around and ask you. Food is good for the most part, buffet has good options and excellent pizza. Tried a few restaurants and they are decent, nothing to right home about, but depending on how busy the resort is you may not get in unless you book 2 days out. Beach is nice but the ocean is weedy. If I were to go back to the DR I would stay here again."

"Staff was very good. Beach view was very nice."

"Clean room, the staff was generally nice some were sort of rude, especially at the casino. The pool tiles were falling apart, the gym equipment was outdated. You could tell it’s slightly dated. But overall a great experience and good time "

"Very clean, very nice. The stuff there are so nice and always happy to help."

"1-star stay at Costa Bahia Hotel Paseo Caribe — unprofessional staff, dirty room, and mold everywhere. Checked in (or tried to) after a day out on the island. I know 4 pm is check-in—I arrived at 10 am expecting to drop bags, came back at 4:15 and was told the room still wasn’t ready. It wasn’t actually ready until 5:15. So we lost the first hour of our evening. Front desk is on the second floor, four people working (two women, two men) and all of them were goofing off behind the desk—throwing a pen around, joking, totally unprofessional. When I asked about a late checkout, I got attitude; the same staffer told me to “check back in the morning.” Next morning we called to request a late checkout and were told it was unavailable. At checkout, a couple trying to check in at 11 am were being offered early check-in for $75—so they’ll charge for early access but won’t extend a courtesy late checkout. Room condition was worse: • Outdated carpet and a persistent moldy smell. • Main orange couch was stained and not fit to sit on; floors were dirty with visible stains. • Bathroom had mold around the tub. Water pressure and hot water were the only positives. • Bed was the worst: the thin blanket had green mold on it (we didn’t notice until the next day). Pillow had a streak of blood. • Balcony door was off its track and a pain to open; view of the bay was nice but not worth the hassle. • All night there was an annoying beep from a utility closet in the hallway—sounded like a dying s"
