Vacations Close To Kaan Luum Lagoon

We stayed in August 2024 for my birthday. This was our 5th or 6th trip and unfortunately we will probably not return. Resort has stopped focusing on couples and has starting promoting large groups to book rooms. The resort isn't set up for this. Dining is delayed, staff is stressed (not enough of them to serve large groups plus other guests), more buffets than before, loud groups partying until late into the night/morning takes away from the chill, relaxing, quiet vibe the resort used to have. Staff and taxi drivers indicate the new manager (might not still be there 1.5 years later, maybe so) was running the resort into the ground for personal profit. We came here for our honeymoon in 2016 and loved it and went back several times. The last trip was so bad and noisy we were ready to leave early since the other people in our building thought nothing of blaring their music and talking on the phone until 3 and 4am in the common areas between rooms. The way the buildings are set up in this resort you walk into a common area and all the rooms in the building come off the common area. The problem is the rooms are very insulated between the rooms but not around the doors. Also because of the large open ceilings, stuff in the common areas echo. As the group was very large (probably 30 plus adults), our concerns were pretty much dismissed since they had rented out about 1/3 of the resort. The wait staff and kitchen staff and bar staff did the best they could.

I really have nothing to say. They did have space to accommodate me and my friends after i had booked through this website they sent me to another hotel. So i have nothing to comment so they will get poor for not communicating things ahead of time and causing me an inconvenience of changing hotels.

My wife and I stayed at Riu palace las Americas for 4 nights to celebrate our 10th anniversary. The staff was amazing and super helpful. We loved and enjoyed all the activities, pool volleyball, bus trips to the riu caribe for parties almost every night, great music and atmosphere. The buffet food was good, loved the Italian restaurant. The steakhouse get too crowded and you have to get in line early. I ordered a ribbye steak but didn't enjoy it, too hard for my taste. This resort is very age friendly for seniors. Will go again
