This was my second visit to this property and first time for the rest of my family. It was a total of four of us.
Pro's:
-If you are looking for value on your $ this is a great option.
-Depending what side of the resort you are at you can be part of the party/activities or enjoy a more calm vibe
-Great theme parties (We attended the Jungle Pool party & the neon party)
-The staff at the bars and restaurants go above and beyond to ensure that you are having a great time and are very personable
-If you go to the Mangu restaurant for breakfast or dinner, ask for Ramon's section. You won't be disappointed. His energy and joy is contagious.
Con's-
-Disconnect between front desk and maintenance. Communication is not a strong suit, and they take their time to resolve the issues.
-Steakhouse-Skip it, go to the buffet. Service was slow and they forgot to bring our salad. When we advise the staff they advised they "ran out". Once we left the restaurant we realized the salad was just right outside the restaurant being prepped since they share the same area as one of the buffet.
-Italian Restaurant-DO NOT GO HERE. The stations are not kept up and they are extremely understaffed.
-Beach is far depending what side of the resort you are in
-No beach umbrellas
Overall you pay for what you get. If you are looking for value and a nice getaway. This is a resort that you can disconnect, recharge and create new memories. Great job Riu Republica with creating a safe, fun environment.
