But firstly a couple of negatives out the way: Maybe this is really obvious to most, but we were expecting the sandy white beaches and clear turquoise waters you always see in the pictures of the Caribbean .. but in the Riu hotels of... more

We returned June 14th from this hotel Our family of 4 (two daughters 17 and 19) had a great time. The reort grounds were better than I expected, the staff was great, the food was real good. We did not eat at the "specialty restuarants" as we preferredt he buffet selections. The beach was real nice....good for a long walk,... more

We just returned from the Mambo last night. I've been all over the Carribean but this was my first time to the DR. We researched the resorts extensively over the net, etc. and booked this one for the price. You can use all three RIU's resorts and they are side by side. I'm more adventurous and rented a car, but... more

Riu Mambo was great! We stayed there from 06/12/2008 to 06/17/2008. Great pools, excellent service, the staff is very, very helpful. They always called us back to make sure that our requests were fullfilled. We liked the food. Although a la carte restaurants did not impress us, so we prefered to go to the buffet. We did not like the... more
