Viatges a Bushiri

This is and was the best resort I have been to and I have been to 14 different resorts and islands. Me and my wife plan on coming back

I recently returned from a vacation in Aruba, where we stayed at RIU, an all-inclusive resort. The property itself is beautiful—especially the family-friendly side—but overall this stay was very disappointing, and the biggest issue was the quality of the food. For lunch and dinner, we tried the buffet multiple times, including going right when it opened. Unfortunately, the food was almost always cold and looked like it had been sitting under heat lamps for hours. We left the buffet more than once just to find something better and ended up eating off the resort to get a decent meal—an added expense that really defeats the purpose of paying all-inclusive. In addition to the food problems, we also had an issue with our room. I booked a junior suite with two double beds, paid well in advance, and when we arrived, we were given a junior suite with a king bed instead. When we brought it to the front desk, they told us that was all they had. That was disappointing, especially considering we specifically paid for the bed setup we wanted. While the resort is attractive, the combination of cold, unappetizing meals and not receiving what we paid for left a lasting negative impression. When we return to Aruba, we will not stay at RIU.
