Riu Bambu
Punta Cana
A
superb beachfront Resort with a flair for decor and ambiance
is located next to the Riu Palace, on a seemingly endless
white beach. The name Bambu (bamboo), is a theme which
creates a magical and exotic experience. The Morrocan style
architecture, with mosaic domes, archways, and white columns
with fanned palm trees, adds glamour and distinction, as a
fine quality Resort. A magnificent pool with swim up bar
shaded by another dome, faces the Caribbean. The lobby is
sunshine yellow, with woodwork crafted and carved, and great
hanging baskets of ferns and flowers. Comfy wicker and
bamboo couches covered with banana leaf patterned cushions,
and the slow motion of overhead ceiling fans, with the
coolness of tiled floors, is a welcoming tropical setting.
Accommodations: Set in colorful villas, with brightly
decorated rooms in bamboo decor, offer two double beds,
ceiling fan, satellite TV, in room save, mini-bar stocked
with water, soft drinks, beer and a liquor dispenser. Full
bathroom (no hair dryer), balcony or terrace. 560 air
conditioned room.
