I spent a week at the Riu Palace with a friend from September 11th - 17th. It was my first resort experience, and I absolutely loved it. The hotel was big and beautiful, the pools and beach were both nice, and there were lots of free drinks to choose from. The entertainment was cheesy, but so very awesome in an... more

The rooms were average to above average, but the grounds were beautiful. The food was good, especially the burgers and fries. I tried to only have one plate of fries, but they were always fresh and hard to pass up. Thank good they had a good gym. The location couldn't have been better. Make sure you get a car because... more

I can not say enough about the Riu Palace Hotel. My wife and I had our honeymoon there from September 19 – 23, 2008. We had a Junior Suite / Ocean View room. I have nothing but good things to say about the Riu. If there is a 5 Star Rating, I would give this resort a 6 Star Rating... more

But we had a budget and certain dates we were traveling during. We asked her to... more

Check in was amazing, the room was clean, bathroom was imaculate. Our ocean view room, was spectacular. I tipped... more

This hotel is dangerous. Many robberies and a history of shootings and a fatality back in May. I urge guests not to book here, especially females traveling in pairs. There are safer countries to visit. Thanks more

The Riu Palace exceeded my expectations. I booked the trip because of the personal experience of my travel agent, but after reading all of the negative reviews I was very concerned. The concerns were unfounded. I've traveled all over the world and also stayed at a number of "all inclusives" throughout the Caribbean. The Riu Palace was better than most... more

I do not understand AT ALL how anyone could write a negative review about this place. Perhaps if we had visited during their busy season things could have been different, but I can say with all honesty that this was THE nicest place I have ever stayed. Had it not been for Hurricane Ike we would have stayed at least... more
