Disliked: Amenities
The property was very poorly maintained, and everything was far apart from one another. Some of the staff were extremely rude and would speak about you in Spanish if you didn’t understand them. The food was terrible, and once everything closed at 10 PM, there was nothing left to eat. The 24-hour sports bar, which is supposed to offer food, only had cold beef burgers. As someone who doesn’t eat beef and with a toddler unfortunately that didn’t work for us. Additionally, there was no microwave, and the room only came with towels—nothing else—and the bedding was dirty. I would never return to this resort, nor would I recommend it to anyone, even on their worst day.

The property is dirty the towel smells very bad no shampoo or conditioner in the room and the food is horrible is the same in the buffet and all the restaurants, the buffet is messy and not so many choices. The pool smells bad and the staff are careless. The only plus is the beach.

RIU Bambu is heavily focused on being family-friendly. Usually when you hear RIU you think parties, games, fun, etc. This RIU is not diverse in terms of activities, events, or music. However, if your goal is to have a chilled / relaxing resort, then I’d recommend coming here.
