Riu Palace Mexico-All Inclusive: Spring Break destination    Check Rates

    • the Riu Palace was a typical all-inclusive setup. About 20 buddies and I went down there for our senior spring break trip. it's basically just a week of nonstop beer/mixed drinks. The Riu is only a $5 cab ride to downtown playa, and you can split it 4 ways, so I'd say location is great. If you're an adult looking for a quiet, beautiful location, DO NOT GO HERE. People kept complaining to the front desk about the noise. Unfortunately, when you place hundreds of teenagers in an all-inclusive setup, it's going to get loud.

    This hotel is the best out of the 5 RIU properties on the beach.
    The food is very good, although it seems to be the best at the buffet. The beach is probably the nicest out of all the hotels on that strip.

    Accommodation is great and very, very clean.

    All the drinks and food you can take. The resort provided enough of what we might need for lounging around and being happy with no worries. Being able to take off to more local and less tourist-type places was easily accessible. But for staying on the beach and sunnin', this was perfect

    We stayed here for a week in December 2006. All said, we loved the RIU Palace Mexico and would return in a heartbeat. Great service and best beach in town.

    The lobby is over the top gorgeous and checkin was quick and easy. The meals were excellent and varied at the buffets. Great selection of salads, fruits, hot dishes and desserts. Every night's offerings had a different theme (Italian, Seafood, Mexican, etc.). The other restaurants were just okay. Try room service. Food service was impeccable. None of the rooms are really on the beach or have much of an ocean view. Although they are spacious and clean. The minibar is well stocked and free. A small tip ensures your favorite beverages are plentiful. The main pool is nice with a swim up bar. Take an aerobic swim class. The spa is nothing special, but you are able to get a massage on the beach. Drink service is also available at the beach. The night time entertainment if fun, professional and the Vegas style lounge is cozy and the drinks flow freely. You are also able to visit and dine at the other nearby Riu hotels. The RPM jewel is their beach, which is arguably the best in PDC. It's lined with date palms and hammocks. Security keeps the local beach vendors at bay. Try the outdoor restaurant near the beach.

    This place was amazing!! Not exactly cheap but it was so worth it, you get what you pay for! It's a beautiful resort, all inclusive, top shelf drinks, yummy food, GREAT service. It has 2 swimming pools, a children's swimming pool, jacuzzi, a swim-up bar, 5 restaurants,in-room liquor dispenser & minibar, tennis courts, big rooms with balcony, daily activities & entertainment in the evenings: usually live music followed by a show. It seemed more like a family place to me, because usually by 11pm the nightly entertainment is over & it's definetly not a party place. There is a club across the street @ Riu Tequila resort, but I only went there once, did not care to go back....however, downtown is a $5 taxi ride away & there are many clubs over there, many right on the beach. This is a beachfront resort as well. There were many couples & many Europeans at the time I went there. I highly recommend RIU Palace MExico & I can't wait to go back!!
