The staff was friendly. The food choices were very good.
The kid's pool could be a bit bigger otherwise my family really enjoyed their time at the resort.

I had the best time at Riu Palace Riviera Maya. The hotel is located on a beautiful stretch of the beach, with a wide white sand stretch. It's quiet and relaxed. They have plenty of chairs, shade provided by trees, and staff takes drink orders from the sand. Perfection.
The grounds are beautiful and spotlessly clean. The rooms are super comfortable and housekeeping services ensure the rooms stays clean and organized at all times.
The all-inclusive system provides a bountiful suppy of food and drinks. There are food stations and bars spread across the property, all providing quality foods and drinks. Breakfast is huge, cafeteria has many options, and the night restaurants serve tasty food. It's not super fancy but all is tasty. The highlight is the coffee bar with the best desserts available.
The hotel also has a packed agenda of activities, exercise classes, dance classes, sports. And at night there are live bands, and high-quality entretainers (shoutout to the Michael Jackson act which was simply amazing!). You can also go to the other nearby Riu properties that have other activities. RIU Tequila has a nightclub and a weekly huge and fun party.
The staff is the friendliest and most helpful. They are always circulating and trying to anticipate guests' needs.
All in my party felt this was a great value hotel! And I would definitely return. Great job Riu team! You provide a memorable experience!!

Food is ok, repetitive food. Staffs are amazing, great service. I had to change my bed linen twice because there were spots on it, but the new one also had spots. Linens looked clean but they had spots which made me feel disgusted.

This was our second stay at a Riu and it was all around excellent. I went fishing one day and brought my catch in to be prepared and cooked that evening. The chef cooked it perfectly. I also gave a lot of the staff some fish to eat as well. Everyone there was wonderful. Fernanda at the front desk especially. We would definitely recommend and return. Thanks yall

We spent a good time in this hotel. Everything excellent. But as we reserved our room, we were supposed to have king size bed but hotel put 2 double beds together and considered it as a king size bed. We asked staff but they didn't really care.
Also we went to night show one time. Didn't have good experience. Sound systems was not perfect as it should be.
But overall i recommend this hotel. Very nice beach and pools. Perfect accommodations.

• The hotel is nice and clean,
• The food was always fresh, delicious and various, we’ve never struggled finding something to eat even though we have some food allergies and intolerances.
• Staff is super friendly, nice and accommodating. (Especially Fernando and German at the pool bar :) )
- There is nowhere to go nearby, you are kind of stuck with the same people every day
- the beach and the sea were dirty with seaweeds in the last few days of our stay and nobody intended to clean it up.
- we saw a women throwing up in the pool and that was disgusting.
- we didn’t like the entertainment (except Mariachi).
In overall if you like an all inclusive resort atmosphere then you won’t be disappointed with this hotel. If you like exploring the area, then you should consider something closer to Cancun.

Had a great time. Everything you need is in walking distance (ferry, shopping mall, dining, entertainment) or taxi if you prefer. The food and staff were amazing. Would stay again.

Second time we've been here. last time was around 7 years ago. It's still a great place to go on vacation. Food is great and staff is very friendly and open to assist and accomodate when possible.
I did see some things that would substract a star compared to my last visit: the beach (which is private) was very dirty and I didn't see staff doing cleanups.
It looks like they re-did the hotel rooms. I think they are more meant for couples than for families, the bathing area is very open and was hard to get the kids away from it while someone was bathing.
If you have small kids, probably this is not the best place to go. There's usualy loud music and lots of noice until 12 ~ 1 am, so be mindful of that. The rooms have solid walls, but unfortunately the doors are weak, so all noise comes from there and you will hear it loud and clear from the room. The AC systems are also extremely loud, not sure why. Maintenance team came to check and confirmed this is the case and it's the system they purchased, so if you're not a heavy sleeper, watch out.

Wonderful place to stay. Food was great in some places (Italian and fusion), average at breakfast/Dinner buffet and not so good at the steak or Japanese place.

Absolutely beautiful property and resort. Only downfall is the rooms do not have a private bathroom because the room is open concept and the bathtub, shower, and sinks are all exposed beside the beds.

close to a shopping center and tons of restaurant options inside the hotel. The beach had sea weed which could be cleaned up but other than that very nice.

The RIU Palace was such a wonderful place to stay at and relax. The staff was amazing and attentive with everything. One staff remember that stood out was Franco, he always made sure we had water and drinks at all times. The property was very family friendly and currently planning our kids there next year.
