I would have rated this resort a 5 but there were a few things that I didn't care for. Now don't get me wrong, this was a very nice place. The staff were incredible. The location was great and the food was of good quality. I do have to say that the frozen drinks seemed to be watered down. I... more

Overall I found this hotel better than your standard AI, with some area for improvement. The grounds and pools were beautiful, and the property was well kept with plenty of places to relax. It is right on the beach, but the water was too rough for swimming. No matter how early we went to make a reservation, we were never... more

Bring between $40-$60 in one dollar bills for tipping at the hotel, shuttle drivers, taxi drivers and wait staff. When ordering drink tip $1 as you get the 1st drink and that will keep the staff coming. Francisco will be on the beach outside of the hotel in orange sunglasses he can get you a water taxi over to the... more

The hotel itself is beautiful and the rooms are nice. I met my girlfriend there for a girls weekend and we booked a partial ocean view. This was a very partial view. You had to stand on the furthest corner of the balcony outside to even see the water, and at that you mostly saw the pool. The did give... more

And just so you know, we've been to a lot of AI's and we're pretty particular! Specifically, I cannot stand bad customer service, I work hard... more

Just returned from a fabulous week at the Riu Palace in Cabo. We've traveled throughout the Caribbean and Mexico - and the Riu Palace is perhaps the nicest resort we've ever stayed at. Our room was rather modest. But as for the rest of the resort, it was a sight to behold. The Grounds and Pool Area - were absolutely... more

No need to worry... this place is a gem! I read lots of reviews that almost doubted my decision to stay at the Riu Palace, but I am so happy with my choice to spend my vacation here. I always book my trips with Liberty Travel. They are reliable and every trip goes as smooth as possible. From the time... more
