RIU and RIU again !

We choose this resort because we are in love with RIU company and we are glad we did !
Is the second time that I spent my birthday in a RIU resort and can’t be in a happier place that day !
This resort is smaller that other properties that we had been before but at the same time is very quiet and charm . Everything is very clean from your room to the restaurants , workers are super kind that combined real panameñan people feelings with RIU staff training .
Food and drinks are amazing !
We loved all restaurants our favourites were Italian , Grill and Asian in that order
At the buffet we all were super friendly specially Yise and Maricruz
All barman are great specially Ariel at the Disco !
Entertainment staff are great too! All the time the keep you entertained and they works very hard to make you happy !
I totally recommend the city tour and Panama Canal is a must if you go there !
Is also very safe if you want to rent a car and drive around just keep in mind the traffic and roads condition
The beach is not as Caribbean style with turquoise waters is volcanic area so the color is very unique. Is not the perfect beach to swim if your are a beach person !
In general we were super satisfied and happy I will be back and also recommend for future travellers !

Bodies Panamá was a great girls trip

Rooms were not cleaned properly, bed linens were not changed daily and the towels smelled of mildew both in the room and the pool towels, very disappointed
