I love this resort
This is my sixth or seventh time here at the resort this year and it never gets boring. I love this resort. The rooms are suitable. The drinks are strong. The staff is nice and it’s such a great getaway.

Dec 09, 2025Lovely
The hotel was huge with plenty of restaurants and bars to choose from. Suitable for all ages as all the pools, etc, had different vibes from bouncy to quiet/chilled. There was always something to do whether that be a walk along the beach watching the sunrise, chilling by the quiet pool, taking part in the activities hosted by staff or bouncing around at the pool parties. Only let down was the hotel room itself but for how long we actually spent in there it wasn’t worth complaining/moving rooms for. And sadly, the pacha club only played Spanish music all night.

Fantastic vacation
We brought our mother to the RIU Republica for 5 days, to celebrate her upcoming 80th birthday. Although, the rooms need to be updated, it was clean. The food was excellent and the staff was very helpful.
