Who fits where at Hotel Riu Tikida Dunas
All 3 categories, from the resort's own accommodations pages. The figures are the comparison: how many the room takes, against the most this property puts in any one key. Where a category carries no figures, the resort does not publish an occupancy for it, which at villa tier usually means it is set when you book.
| Suite | Occupancy | Size | Bedrooms | Aspect |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Double Room | Sleeps 4 | 431 ft²40 m² | 1 bedroom | Not publishedconnecting |
| Standard Double Room Sea View | Sleeps 3 | 431 ft²40 m² | 1 bedroom | Seaconnecting |
| Junior Suite Sea View | Sleeps 3 | 861 ft²80 m² | 1 bedroom | Sea |
Occupancy is the maximum published occupancy including rollaways, not comfortable occupancy. Categories and occupancy change with renovations, and connecting rooms are usually request-only, so confirm when you book.
