Great Experience at Rui Palace Riviera Maya
This was our first time staying at a Riu hotel. We had a great experience. Hotel was clean, rooms were always clean and the food and drinks were delicious. Everyone at the hotel was friendly and helpful. We definitely will be going back.

Beautiful facility, great service, best beach
Our favorite resort in Playa Del Carmen, The things we love the most is the quality of the resort itself (they take great care of the facility), the service and employees, and the Playacar beach. The environment around the pool gets loud and active after 10am by design (designed for fun), so not a quiet place to relax, but a fun place to play. Many love the food choices, but for us it’s just okay (relatively better than most Mexican resorts). The facility, service and beach make up for any small negatives.

Amazing Vacation!
We went on a week long vacation with my boyfriends parents. We have been to other resorts and wanted to try the RIU chain. We had a few of our friends recommend the RIU resorts and we were not disappointed. We had a wonderful time and the entertainment crew was awesome as well as the staff. Bartenders were very attentive and everyone made you feel special. We are definitely going to come back to this resort or try a RIU in a different city.

Beautiful resort but not for us
My husband and I decided to book this resort for my birthday. Beautiful resort. Very clean. The food was 6/10. The Riu in Aruba's food was excellent, so we expected more. It could see how this experience would be great for many others, but it just wasn't our cup of tea. I saw many enjoying themselves. As Americans from South Florida, it really didn't fit out taste for multiple nights. It was great the first night and much appreciated but after that I would've loved to hear top 100 at the pool atleast. Would I return? No.. We are a young couple who enjoys the turn up and this just wasn't for us. They still get 4 stars for the service, cleanliness and drinks. It's the last Riu for us. Allllsssoooo they do not have a pacha (club) at this location. You would have to take a 20 minute walk to Riu Tequila. I come to Cancun to Party! You live and you learn lol
