It was a lovely hotel...very beautiful and WONDERFUL food. However, not all restaurants were open and they are limited in the number of reservations, so we only got to experience 2 restaurants. Krystal was fabulous. The steak house provided us poor service. We waited for long periods between each course and no waiter to be found, so we had no... more

Riu Palace is a very nice resort. The grounds are extremely well kept. You literally can not walk more than 5 minutes without seeing someone mopping the floor. The food and drinks were great for an all-inclusive (better than others that we have been to). The service was pretty good- maybe not quite as top notch as a Sandals, but... more

I would recommend this resort as long as your agent has provided you with everything you need to travel. We landed at the Cabo airport, got our luggage & passed through customs. When exiting customs, watch out for the hallway of timeshare vultures. If you have a shuttle waiting, just pass through. They'll try to offer a free activity for... more

My wife and I just returned from the Riu Palace after a quick four day get-a-way and I can't wait to go back next year. Our expectations were simple - we just wanted to have a nice breakfast each morning, relax and drink poolside, eat at a couple of the better restaurants at the resort, and watch the Angels pound... more

My husband and I spent five nights at the Riu Palace. This place is beautiful! Rooms were clean. Staff constantly cleaning. The food was very good, we preferred the buffet over the hotel restuarants. The buffet was huge! Something to eat for everyone's taste. At lunch the buffet staff would set up food at pool-side for guests. The only small... more

My wife and I just recently returned from a week at the RIU Palace. I do have to say that our feelings are a little mixed on the hotel. Early in the trip we did experience an issue with ants in our ocean front room that took 2 - 3 days to clear up. The main problem stemmed from the... more

5 months of planning this trip with 6 other couples! We drove up to a gorgeous resort and had "top of the line" service immediately! Everything was going perfect. Our room was somewhat clean but as the days went on we found several critters...ants on the counter, a roach on the wall, and a lizard in the room. And that's... more

I have been to the Riu Palace in Vallarta and must say that I was very disappointed with this hotel. We got an upgrade to an oceanview and the view is beautiful. Nice hotel but not as friendly to Latinos from the U.S. We speak the language and we were treated diferently. Cabo was not for us but that did... more

After two years of no vacations my husband and I decided despite the economy we were going to take advantage of our timeshare benefits and go to Cabo. We wanted to go for at least 10 days and could only stay at the timeshare for 7 days. We decided to go to an all inclusive for 3 days before heading... more
