This property is breathtaking and the wildlife that surrounds it is very captivating! RIU never disappoints! Mutiple dining options, plenty of activities and excursions galore! I can't wait to go back. ALSO, make sure to fly into Liberia Airport if this is your destination because any other airport is more than an hour away!
