Winter Refresher
This was our second trip to Hotel Riu Palace Baja California. As with our last stay, it was relaxing and comfortable. This time we stayed on the resort and didn't venture off for any other activities because it was a shorter stay. The resort is clean, the staff were friendly and helpful and the food is great.

I love this resort
I’ve stayed here twice in the last two years and I love this resort. This time I noticed upgrades and fruits and cheese as well as champagne in it room in addition to the already stocked fridge and bar. Defiantly recommend

First time at RIU, we will be back
We stayed at RIU based on a co-worker's recommendation. This was our first all-inclusive resort, and we were very happy with the experience. The entire resort is beautiful and clean. We had no trouble finding a spot at the pool and the drink service was good. Service at the bars fluctuated a bit but we found a favorite bartender and he took good care of us. The selection of food buffet was ample and everything we tried tasted good. For specialty dining, the Mexican restaurant, the Asian fusion restaurant, and the gourmet restaurant all served nice meals. The food in the steak house and Italian restaurant was amazing!!

FUN RIU PARTY
Best foam party I have ever been to. Lots of energy and interaction with the RIU Party. Great food and excellent selection in both the buffet and Krystal restaurant and the Steakhouse. You can also swim on the beach if you walk 15 mins. toward the marina. I would highly recommend this all inclusive hotel if you want to have a fun time.

Read before booking
Although there were some typical Riu high standards, there were also issues. We are part of the Elite club, but the pounding and loud music from the 24 hour partying was too much and not relaxing. Loved that the property was compact, but the loud all day music was exhausted. Don’t go to relax, only go to a party.
