Though we manage a proper fumigation program for all our areas, it is unfortunate that we are unable to control insects at 100%. Due to the warm weather and the location of our resort, which is surrounded by vegetation, it is possible that insects can enter our facilities. Our lovely staff work to keep them under control, since our grounds have extensive garden areas. We fumigate continuously all areas to keep insects away from our grounds. However, we regret that we failed to live up to your expectations and we are disappointed to read the shortfalls you received. We have noted your feedback to ensure we can work on improving our service delivery and offerings at the hotel accordingly. Hoping to have the opportunity to welcome you again.

Day one TV not working, over 4 days I reported to front desk twice, emailed to customer service and then emailed to complaint department. 11th night, still no TV and no response, because no one cared. Jacuzzi jets not working! But still they were taking the booking!! We were told of issues when we went at appointment time and got undressed to go into Jacuzzi!!! In room we ran out of water twice, once ran out of, shower gel and hand-wash gel, once ran out of coffee mate and sugar. I tried to order through phone to relevant department, but phone not working! Then tried to order through RIU app and message came as ERROR!! Service in buffet restaurants is terrible. Waiters will serve you if you are Spanish, otherwise you will be completely ignored. They can tell by your wrist band. All guests were All Inclusive, but local guests from Jamaica and Porte Rico who come for just 2/3 nights stay have Yellow bands and other guests mostly from UK were wearing Purple bands. Why?? This is discrimination and it was practiced openly, also, it was quite noticeable as 90% of guests were wearing yellow bands. One waiter in particular was absolutely ignorant, even though he could speak English quite well, he just ignored us and not serve us. Why? We haven't got any clue, and are still baffled. He works in Mangu restaurant in the morning and Kaori restaurant in evening. Normally we had breakfast outside in veranda to avoid him, but on last day we decided to have breakfast inside in A/C room. He just ignored us, but other waitress asked him to get 2 tea's for us, and tea never came, So we asked yet again to another waiter and tea came after 8 minutes. He was happy to serve all other guests around our table, just because they all were wearing Yellow wrist bands (Spanish ID)! It really made me mad, so I asked for his name and he got confused! But I managed to get it from his name tag. EQUDURE. Number of times we had to ask supervisor to serve us and ask them to clear our table, sometimes had to get up middle of our meals to get knife, fork, napkins, coffee etc. As guests with Purple wrist bands were just ignored and this was quite acceptable practice in buffet restaurants, even by the supervisor. We both are over 70, I have grey hair and we both limp a bit because of arthritis, but, still were ignored!! It's not that we didn't tip good staff, we spent £28 on tips between room cleaner, chef, restaurant waiters, pool staff, bar staff. Also, this hotel is adult only, more suitable for 18 to 35 , who are here for just 2/3 nights for clubbing. Not adult only what we experience in Europe. I am a registered member of Riu hotels group and was expecting much better response and service from the management. So it seems members are just a number!! Never ever using Riu brand again.

During our stay, there was a power outage which resulted in our room having no electricity or running water for a period. This caused considerable inconvenience and discomfort and had a major impact on our holiday. Upon checking into our room, we discovered that there was no remote control for the television. We reported this issue immediately and followed it up on several occasions, making at least four or five separate requests before a remote control was finally delivered. Unfortunately, the remote provided did not work correctly. As a result, we were unable to adjust the television’s volume or switch it off, leaving us with no option but to sleep with the television playing at a very high volume for three consecutive nights. The fan in our room did not work at all .This caused significant disruption to our sleep and enjoyment of our holiday. In addition to these issues, I was trapped in the lift on the third floor on two separate occasions. This was an extremely distressing experience and raises serious concerns about the maintenance and safety of the hotel’s facilities. The food is awful old and stale in parts of the hotel sewage can be smelt .

Overall, RIU Republica is a very good resort with excellent facilities and hardworking staff. The rooms, housekeeping, pools, entertainment, and overall cleanliness were outstanding. Most of the employees genuinely do their best to provide a great experience. I would also like to mention that I have more than 20 years of professional experience in the hotel and restaurant industry. Because of this background, I tend to pay close attention to service quality, hygiene standards, and operational procedures. My comments are intended as constructive feedback rather than criticism. However, there are a few issues that management should address. At the buffet, the service was inconsistent. It often seemed that guests who tipped received much more attention than those who did not. I also witnessed some concerning hygiene practices. One dining room supervisor (wearing a green uniform) took brand-new glasses directly out of the boxes by placing his fingers inside them. On several occasions, I also saw dirty glasses being quickly rinsed in an ice bucket instead of being properly washed before being put back into service. These are details that should not happen at a resort of this standard. I would like to give special recognition to Angelo, whose professionalism was exceptional. Although I don’t know his exact position, he was incredibly helpful on two occasions. First, he took the time to answer my questions about room security during the night, making me feel reassured. Later, when we were leaving early for an excursion and appeared unsure where to go, he immediately approached us, offered assistance, and made sure everything was taken care of. Employees like Angelo are a real asset to the resort. The biggest disappointment, however, was not the resort itself but many of the guests. Unfortunately, a large number of visitors showed little respect for other people or for the property. Many left food, drinks, and garbage around the pool and common areas, treated shared spaces carelessly, and drank to excess. It was common to see people eating on sun loungers and around the pool, then simply walking away without cleaning up after themselves. Despite these issues, I still recommend RIU Republica. The resort itself deserves high praise, and the staff work very hard. I simply hope that management continues to improve buffet service and hygiene standards while maintaining the high level of service provided by employees like Angelo.

We had the most amazing time! Do not read the negative reviews. The grounds are immaculate, very clean and tidy. Yes it's a party resort, but you can make it as quiet as you want depending on what pool you go to during the day!. There are 8 pools, take your pick! We stayed in room 2396 which was at the quiet end. Had not one issue with the AC. Only thing I'd say is yes the room/bathroom could do with a little upgrade but we were only there to sleep in it not spend all day in a hotel room. I mean who does that anyway!. Food was great. Jerk chicken place very good! So much choice for everyone. If you can't find something suitable to eat there's clearly something wrong with you lol. The beach was beautiful too! Overall it was amazing, had the best time. Home today a very sad man to be home.

have been to RIU Jamaica and Mexico and this was by far the worst. We were given a dirty room that had mold on the walls and dirty sheets. We got a new room but it was only slightly better than the first one. My friends and I slept on top of the sheets as the bedding felt like sand paper. My friends suitcase and bed was filled with ants the next day , coming to find an ants nest on her side of the room. You can tell that no attention is being paid to the up keep of the hotel for example a huge chunk of tile was missing from swim up bar .The kicker was the mouse we spotted at the buffet dining area. The only saving grace was some of the staff (not all).As I said I have been to other RIU resorts along with other all inclusive hotels and this for me was the absolute worst.
