Castillo del Romeral Vacations from $1,140

The property was well kept, and the staff was very friendly. I do wish the resort had a shuttle service for its guests to get them to and from the airport and to attractions on the island.

We enjoyed our stay at this resort and liked having a 1 bedroom with kitchen bungalow near the pool. The pool was very clean & beautiful but the water is too cold for most people to swim. Even tho the weather was very hot & sunny as soon as they felt the water they would not go in. The staff is nice and friendly. I wish they would have told us about the free shuttle to the beach when we checked in instead of 2 days later. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and we enjoyed Happy Hour (2 for 1 drinks) and ate dinner 2 times at the pool bar that had a casual menu with many choices. There were no other dining options and many guests left the resort in the evening to go out to dinner. It would be nice if the beach shuttle had longer hours for guests to go to dinner at the nearby Caybeach Princess affiliate location that serves a nice buffet. We liked the location of this resort and would stay there again.

Excellent, would visit again!

The view from our room was outstanding. The room itself was spacious with lots of hangers and room to put clothing and unpack and keep suitcases. The washroom was huge. The bed was comfortable. The balcony was large with a place to hang and dry towels and clothes if needed there was a kettle and a mini fridge. The resort was full of people, but never felt that way there were lots of kids and families, and the customers and staff were all super polite. There was always something to do and somewhere to sit never had to wait. The staff works super hard. I’d be up early in the morning for a run and see staff washing windows top to bottom washrooms floors very busy trying to keep the place spic and span. Lots of front desk staff and people asking if there’s anything you needed it felt like a real relaxing holiday. It actually feels like home when we stay at RIU.

A bit big for us but that said it is a great place to stay and excellent value for money. We had a Prestige Suite which suited our family well as long as your kids will share a bed, or it’s 2 couples. Spacious and modern and cleaned everyday. Main restaurant offers a good selection and quality of food and the pool bars are very good. When it’s fully booked (which it was last 2 days of our hols) it was less enjoyable. We then chose to eat out and had lunch in the main restaurant rather than the pool bar as it was way less busy.
