    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    Tucked away from the beach and with a palm-edged lagoon pool, the Riu Naiboa is a truly tropical hideaway.

    The Riu Naiboa is a five-minute walk away from the supersized beach and lively Caribbean Street. But hidden behind a screen of palm trees, it holds on to a lost-in-paradise feel.

    Bavaro Beach is just a five-minute walk away – that’s 14 miles of sand, sunloungers, watersports centres and beach bars.

    Came here with my family of 12 mid March. And honestly we would not go back. We came here because “Riu Resorts” are very well known to be a great place to stay at. Being an “all inclusive” we could NOT get food all the time, on the first day we only had breakfast and dinner because we were NOT informed of their cut off times of their food services. breakfast was from 7am-10am... lunch was 12-3pm snack bar was 3:30-5!!!! And dinner was 6:30-10pm And going with many kids it was very difficult if you wanted food during the cut off times. Waiters and waitresses weren’t the greatest.. they would only be nice to you or give you good service if there was a tip involved. Only had ONE a la carte that took NO reservations which we could never get a seat due to our large group. Buffet was decent food but only had a few choices and very repetitive And served almost the same things everyday. Rooms were okay, but they did not change the sheets everyday even though we asked them and even left the sheets on the floor, my 2 year old spilt a bit of juice on the sheets and they just remade the bed with the SAME sheets! Beach was nice but a bit hard to walk in due to a lot of fallen branches in the sand. Bartenders were very nice and friendly. Drinks were perfect. The staff at the pool were amazing and made the experience fun. The water park was limited. A few of the slides were out of service. Weather was great but will definitely not be coming back to this resort.
    Friendly staff very good service good food and great atmosphere

    This was our first trip down south, we do travel a lot, we found this resort has a Great location clean room clean beach fun and friendly staff. You can relax enjoy the day and you can also have a great party. You won’t lack food if you are a big eater, you can eat a la carte if you prefer, the buffet has a wide variety of food for everyone. The resort theme pool parties are fun and full of energy.
    Terrible rooms

    When we got there we had to wait until the rooms were "ready" about 3 pm. when we finally got the room, it was a 2 single beds, we requested a king bed. the room stink like mild dew and it was the last room on the 4th floor. we had to walk quite a bit to get to the room. we complained about the smell so they gave us another room on the first floor, facing the swimming pool (the best they said). the room smelled like mild dew and the phone didn't work, the tv didn't work either. they said they would send someone to fix it but they never did. there were no face towels to use, no complementary soup, shampoo, NOTHING. The servers were great but they don't smile too often even when you say thank you or tip them. the air conditioning didn't work and it was unbearable. I WOULD NEVER GO BACK THERE AND WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE EITHER.
    Great Vacation

    We had the most amazing time at the Riu Naiboa!! After booking and paying for our trip I started reading reviews and freaked out at the many complaints and was terrified that this was going to be a horrible experience, but to my surprise it was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Our room was clean & spacious, only seen ONE bug on the floor the entire time! The staff at the hotel were AMAZING, beach is a 4minute walk but worth it!! We will definitely be planning another trip to this resort ASAP! And for all those complaining and negative reviews, Please go and see for yourself because apparently those who were negative have never been to the Caribbean!!! Thank you Riu Naiboa for an amazing family vacation!

    A group of 20 friends visited this resort Feb 2019, the resort was just average to begin with, and I noticied false statements from the ad for the resort, such as a meal exchange with other Riu resorts in the same area, no such plan. Also the ad stated the resort was up-dated, not likely. During the one week we were there, we had no water, on and off for about 8 hours, and the next day and 1/2 we had air conditioning. I spoke to the Manager of the resort and expressed our concern, and disappointment Alejandro (Manager) said we should have gone to another resort in the area if we wanted ammenities. I was not aware water and air conditioning at a resort were considered ammentities. I have reached out to the Riu Resort headquarters, but, no surprised no response.
