We just arrived home last evening from the Riu Las Americas in Cancun after spending a glorioius 5 days. Pick up at the airport was great, as we stepped out of the airport I could hear my name being called and we were taken to the hotel without any long wait. When we checked in the staff was great, Damain... More

I can not imagine a better hotel experience than Riu Palace Las Americas in Cancun. We selected the all inclusive option and the staff were extremely attentive and provided us with drinks around the clock free of charge and tip. You can be in the lobby, by the pool or on the private beach and your every need will be... More

The place is amazing. The staff are excellent, especially the bartenders: AB and Diego, and the entertainment staff: Adrian, Jack, and Steve. I would definitely go back. More

Despite some the negative reviews, we have the RIU PALACE to be the best value among the large selection of hotels. We have been there four times in a row and each year we think about changing. However we know what the RIU is all about and decide not to make a change. When you get there,you are overwhelmed with... More

Been to Cancun many many times but never at the Riu Palace Las Americas. We can't say anything negative about this property. It's the most prestigous hotel in a perfect setting. We took our family and our childrens significant others. What a great way for our daughter to forget her problems. It was a vacation they will never forget. We... More

We planned a week-long adults-only vacation and had a GREAT time! Restaurants were all good. Pools were nice - one was quiet and the other had music and activities throughout the day. Beach was nice, but small. Rooms were nice - typical RIU with a stocked bar. Highly recommend it! More
