My girlfriends and I went for a girls trip to the Dominican for the first time. We loved everything. The resort staff was friendly and helpful.They made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to entertain us and make us laugh.

My husband and I just got in yesterday from a week at the Riu Taino and I couldn't wait to sit down to write this. We travel to the DR twice a year and couldn't wait to get there this year. Before driving up to the Riu Taino we drove through the Naibo first. The smell of sewage was soo... more

My husband & I just returned from the Riu Taino. We had booked this trip 5 months prior to our arrival. I had emailed the resort shortly after booking asking for a room on the second floor with a view of the ocean.

Booked through orbitz. After 1 day prices dropped 100 dollars then went up to 1200 dollars then back down....It is like the stock market. Pre-arranged ground transportation round-trip but don't count on the trip back, it is near impossible to arrange the trip back but Ok. Since I was all the time at the beach/eating/pool/disco who has time to arrange... more

My husband and I, who are both in our early 30's just returned from 5 days at the Riu Taino. We had a lovely time. We booked the trip through Sears Travel Canada.
