Our stay at the resort was truly wonderful. Every morning, the breakfast was incredibly fresh and delicious, setting a perfect tone for the day. The bar staff were exceptional they took our orders with great attention and delivered cocktails promptly and with a smile. Their friendly and efficient service made our experience even more enjoyable, adding a special touch to our relaxing time at the resort.

We enjoyed our stay at Riu Palace. It was a bit of a long journey to get to the island but staff helps you along the whole way. There was a bit difficult communication in our situation as our domestic flight was cancelled and we weren’t notified of this but eventually it was sorted. The vibe is very much charter holiday which wasn’t super appealing to us. But overall we had a nice stay and staff was friendly.

Very nice resort honestly the best I’ve stayed at but…. Snacks at bar is all you can get after 10pm and they really suck bad I mean gross bad and if you have been drinking late and have midnight munchies you are gonna hate the few options they have especially compared all the other Riu I’ve stayed at? They all have nachos and popcorn and hamburgers and hotdogs and chicken nuggets none of that is here idk why?? Even the rooms don’t have snacks why? No chips no cookies? All the Riu have snacks in the fridge. And only one beer option it’s called Lion I personally hated that beer and the alcohol quality for all the alcohol in general is really bad
