    Great all inclusive hotel

    Nice Hotel, very organized, with activities schedules and well organized. The staff fro m the restaurants is my only complain they all look tired and are not friendly at all and agressive (80% of them) but in the other hand staff from all bars, lobby, housekeepers, shows were very nice. The facilites are nice, the pools excelent. The food the best at Riu hotels ive visited. Im general I will recommend this place to anyone and will plan to come back The fact that is Adults Only makes the experience even better

    Birthday Weekend Getaway

    The hotel property is huge with many pools to enjoy. We enjoyed the buffet for all meals as the selection was very large. There always seemed to be something going on so you are never bored. Most of the mess comes from the guests on the resort so be aware of that. The only thing was the sports bar snacks never seemed to be available or replenished timely. The bartenders and servers are all very attentive from what we experienced.

    My Experience at RIU Republica

    It was a A magnificent location, great Staff good crowd and very nice vibe. Great recreation for me. Almost wanted to stay forever. Only problem that we had to face was the key card suddenly stopped working. I couldn’t get to the room in the middle of the night and had to walk to the reception more than once in each time to get it fixed. It happened to me twice. Then we realized that happened once you put it behind or same pocket with your mobile phone. Please upgrade your technology on that. Other than that overall, it was a great experience and I thank you team RIU Republica

    Riu República was fantastic.

    We had a wonderful holiday! Our stay at the RIU hotel was fantastic, with delicious food and great entertainment every evening. The beach was stunning, and Punta Cana is truly a beautiful destination. Regards, Jason Vaughan
