It is a bit pricey but the service and food very good. It is an all inclusive resort and everything is free. They have a bar and service for 24 hours. They have multiple restaurants and one of their restaurant open three times a day and there is another restaurant that opens till late. You can use RIU Jambo resort facilities. There are about four or five restaurants open for dinner time but to get a table you have to book and it is hard to find a table there and it is fully booked, well I stayed for two days and all those restaurants were fully booked.

We stayed in both Jumbo and Palace. We checked into the hotel at night, they gave us a room near the reception (the reception is more modest compared to Jumbo). Our room was 300 and was terribly far from the restaurant and activities, it was hard to walk up the hill. But you could ask to take you by buggy. In the first hours of our stay, I seemed to like Palace less, but then I realized its specialty. This hotel is more secluded, quieter, there are more older tourists, everything is measured. Very beautiful views of the beach. Lots of secluded places, I really liked the pool near the Crystal restaurant. The cuisine is not very varied. Over 6 days, a couple of dishes changed, everything else is standard. But my diet has a special feature, I can't eat gluten. The staff tried and responded to any of my requests, they brought me gluten-free bread. We went to three a la carte restaurants. Iya - Greek restaurant, not bad I really liked Crystal both for the food and the ambience The steak restaurant was a bit of a let down (The meat was very tough.) Otherwise, everything was great. Nice, caring staff, always saying hello and smiling, always ready to help. Clean and cozy. By the way, the security on the beach tries not to let the sellers of everything and anything who walk along the beach get close to the guests, because there is no escape from them. This is another huge plus for the hotel.

Excellent hotel and service. Food was very good as well, with the caveat that the buffet was not always available (some nights were a la carte only). Limited entertainment, but it was enjoyable when there was some. I would choose this hotel again regardless of those two things, overall it was a wonderful experience
