    Lovely

    Awesome. Beautiful. Fun & exciting. Relaxing. Refreshing. The views, oh the views - phenomenal! Let me not forget the buildings. They have special, beautiful character! Something for everyone! The food was delicious with plentiful options, availability, and access. My husband is seeking to plan a huge family trip.

    Fantastic Vacation

    Had a fantastic time with a group of friends, the service and staff were exceptional. Lots of great restaurants to choose from and the buffet didn’t disappoint with a large variety of food options. Will be back

    Enjoyable

    It was great and I enjoyed what felt like so many choices of food and drinks along with the fun trips made it very memorable. And their service was phenomenal and showing them appreciation for their hard work goes a long way.

    Great place and a great vacation!

    The resort was very clean! Staff were excellent! We enjoyed our trip. My only “complaint” is that I wish the restaurants actually took reservations.

    Wonderful

    This was a great property. We had a great stay. I have only a few tiny nits to pick. 1. I did not realize that not all RIU Palace resorts are adult-only. So, this surprised me. 2. The property is NOT on a beach where swimming is possible. It would have been nice to know that beforehand. 3. The configuration of the pools at the property makes walking from one side to the other very difficult. There is no direct path. You are constantly cutting across the lounge-chair area or through the restaurant. And finally. 4. There are SO MANY stairs. I am SO glad that I did not bring my parents. But these are MINOR issues—like saying I would rather that the trim on my luxury yacht were cream instead of off-white. Overall it is a GREAT resort. And our stay was WONDERFUL! (I may never again be content to have a room without a private pool/swim-up entry.)
