Bless the person who invented the drone as well as the person/company who decided that making drone videos of resorts could be a money-making business. Gotta love them–they give a great overall view of a resort’s general layout which can provide additional information when deciding whether or not to book a specific resort.

My Riu Playacar walk-through video has been up for awhile on YouTube, but I thought I’d post it since some readers may not visit that site with regularity. Take a look–here’s what the new renovations look like.
The newly renovated Riu Playacar has already made some changes since its reopening the fall of 2015. Due to the popularity of its main buffet, The Palms, a la carte reservations are no longer required for either the steakhouse or Jade. There is a new a la carte restaurant which shares space with the steakhouse and it serves Mexican cuisine. Reservations are not required for this restaurant either. You just need to show up. Another reason to like this resort–no standing in another line just to put your name on a list with a set dinner time. Just show up–can’t get more easy than that.

Now Jade just finished some renovations to its property. Here is what was done:
