Worse Riu Palace Option
Worse Riu Palace that we have stayed at, and we have stayed at several. Customer service is highly lacking especially in the buffet areas. It’s as though the staff does not want you there. Bottle water policy of one per room is ridiculous! When you call front desk to order water, it never shows up. Same goes for the mini fridge service, never stocked. Shower floor tile is slippery. Beach is terrible.

This hotel was really subpar. Our room smelled horribly, you had to force your way in because the door was stuck, the tv didn’t work for the first two days, and there weren’t many amenities besides going to the pool and eating. We were supposed to get a resort credit and were out through the wringer trying to get it so we gave up. Overall, I would not recommend and would not return.

This was one of the best all inclusive hotels we have ever stayed at. The staff was beyond attentive. They remembered our names, our likes, and they did everything they could to ensure we had an outstanding stay. We would absolutely stay here again!

Transportation to and from the hotel was terrible. If your flight got delayed the hotel said “they are not responsible to pick you up”.
