I Stayed at Every Riu Resort in Punta Cana - Ranking Them Worst to 1st

I stayed at every single RIU resort in Punta Cana—and now, I’m ranking them worst to first.


This isn’t one of those “top 5” clickbait listicles made from Google images or secondhand reviews. I actually stayed at all 5 RIU properties in Punta Cana—each for a minimum of 4 nights. I experienced every pool, every beach, every bar, buffet, party, and late-night lounge. I paid my own way, filmed it all, and now I’m giving you the real truth—unfiltered, unsponsored, and based on experience.


In this video, I break down the full RIU lineup:

• RIU Bambu – One of the largest, loudest, and cheapest resorts in all of Punta Cana. Is it worth the chaos for the value?
• RIU Palace Punta Cana – A laid-back palace with classic architecture… but does it still hold up?
• RIU Palace Bavaro – The “flagship,” according to RIU. Modern, massive, and… inconsistent?
• RIU Republica – Adults-only, legendary, and totally insane. The most electric party resort in the Caribbean?
• RIU Palace Macao – The gold standard. Boutique feel, adults-only elegance, and my personal #1 RIU… anywhere.


I’ll cover food, drinks, rooms, service, pools, beaches, and nightlife—and call out what no one else will. Want the cheapest RIU? Want the wildest party? Want the best beach? You’ll find it all here.
