The Rif At Mangrove Beach Corendon All-Inclusive, Curio

I was thoroughly impressed by the contemporary design of the hotel and room and the fact that it was fully equipped with all the amenities you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. It was indeed an all-inclusive experience. Everything you could possibly think about, the resort had it available for your comfort and convenience. My room was also very clean. I would say that the staff is doing a good job to maintain cleanliness throughout the resort. I also appreciated the fact that even though you are staying at the Rif, you also have access to the adjoining Corendon property to indulge in their facilities and activities. It's ideal because the Rif is the quieter side whilst Corendon is more active; so it was like having the best of both worlds depending on your mood. The Stay-App was also very efficient for making requests for room service and room cleaning, etc. However, making reservations on the app for the restaurants was a bit challenging. Making the reservations in-person worked out more effectively me. The food was really good at the Buffet with a wide variety of options to choose from. There was good flavour in the food and the use of quality ingredients in all food options available. My favorite overall restaurant was Cor & Don's BBQ Restaurant, especially at sunset. The ambiance and the food was top tier there! The staff was also very friendly at the restaurants and the bars. My favourite overall bar was Sunset Beach Bar, with the bartender, Carlos, making some of the best cocktails on the resort. I also really liked the freshly brewed teas at the Mondi Café. I visited there every day to get my fresh lemon and mint brew on mornings. Overall, I would say this resort truly met my expectations.
