Nice hotel. Needs a light in shower enclosure. Night club needs to be inside with air conditioning. If you get sick or have a heart attack you are responsible. There is no medical services at all. Oh be sure to keep your eyes on your children in the pool. They do have a lifeguard but they are standing in the shade. Not sure if they would see someone drown

We were there for a week. Plenty of food options for kids and adults. Tried Mexican restaurant and Asian restaurant. We thought the Mexican restaurant was better, more authentic flavor. Went to bed too early to see any shows. Beach had lots of sea shells. We did swim in the ocean a couple times but kids liked the pools better. This was our second time here.

The waterslides - which was a big reason we booked this resort - were unsafe. The material used to make them was rough, which made for a painful ride. An adult cut their arm going down. The kids did not enjoy them because they hurt. 14 year old and 7 year old bumped their heads going down one of the slides because it went so fast. There were gaps between the pieces joining the slides together so made for a very bumpy and uncomfortable ride. We would not go back. The children's show at night was just a game of musical chairs. A pair of earbuds went missing from our hotel room. The pools are missing several tiles and look like they are in need of an upgrade (lights underwater floating and hanging on by a wire)

We absolutely loved our stay at Riu Emerald Bay. Riu always maintains a high standard for their properties and this was true to that standard. Staff were always super friendly and helpful whenever needed. Whatever requests my wife and I had they were able to accommodate. The 5 pools were great and was always able to find two good chairs by the pool. The nightly shows were great, performers clearly had practiced the shows a lot and was very impressive with the amount of choreography. Bartenders were all super friendly and were characters and were funny. The drink/cocktail selection was expansive and impressive for an all inclusive. Food overall was super tasty and even in the buffets was cooked properly and not overdone.

The staff are all very hard working and friendly! Service was wonderful! Pool service staff (Louis), very attentive and would even bring fancy drinks that he thought we would like, as a thoughtful gesture. Rafael in the Tres Isla buffet was also exceptional, he was even teaching me some Spanish by the end! Restaurants are a hybrid of buffet and a la cart. Nothing exceptional, good food though. Buffet was definitely suffcient. No trouble getting sun chairs....always plenty as they have hundreds both at the 3 pools and on the beach. Elevators were frustrating as they took a while to come, passing right by your floor. Not a deal breaker. Entertainment was good, especially the 2 rock bands! Live music, no lip syncing! " The Stones" and "Kannon". Incredible! Would definitely go back!

Our 3rd visit tothe RIU Emerald Bay. Beautiful location for people that want a little of everything. Pools all had dufferent temperatures to suite all. Beach is expansive, a fantastic walk. We always found the buffets differed slightly, so food dudnot get boring. Overall very relaxing vacation.
