This was our second stay at Riu Palace. On our second afternoon I became quite ill due to food poisoning and was confined in our room for a day and a half. Room service changed our sheets out twice that day without a beat. I like this property and will most likely return in the future.

The property is beautiful and clean and spacious, what I didn't like was there wasn't an adult pool. One pool was loud with music and games and the other pool was great but no sign of a lifeguard and several children jumping and diving into the pool, splashing. One out of two pools should be made adult only.

This is our second time staying at RIU palace and we had a great time!! We ordered room service for dinner on our last night and it was really fast. All the staff are always so nice and the service is great! The property is always kept very clean and we enjoyed the food options, but also proximity to downtown/marina on the days we felt like exploring.
