    We have visited the RIU Emerald Bay for 11 years. We have enjoyed each and every visit. The rooms are always cleaned as well as the entire resort. Recently my wife stopped drinking and we found out that you have 0.0 alcohol beer at the Sports Bar. I feel this beer should be offered in the room as well as the other bars. Also 0.0 alcohol white wine is also available too.

    Incredible family vacation at Riu Emerald Bay

    We stayed in a family room and although the room needs a bit of updating, you cannot beat the location or the view. We played a lot of games and had so much fun!! All the staff was friendly (huge thanks to the amazing chef B who made me kiddos their eggs everyday.) such an awesome space and we cannot wait to go back!!!

    all inclusives are not for me.

    first all-inclusive that we had ever stayed in. mariachi band played all day on the beach. couldn't have a nap on the 16th floor because it was too loud. lunch buffet was so loud we couldn't talk to each other. all restaurants were buffet, although the brochures say that they are sit down restaurants. ocean was beautiful, pools were pristine, sitting areas were perfect, drinks flowed non stop. for a young family with kids, this is a good vacation, but i guess i am too old for this level of noise.
