Food was good. Resort was not clean, there was an invasion of bees at the swim up bar I even got stung by one. The resort had a bad smell in some of the areas. It needed a major paint job. The bath in my room was rusty, there was a leak from the balcony door, and there was a mold odor. Entertainment could have been a lot better especially since there was an hurricane.

The RIU Palace is a great place to go for an all inclusive vacation. Normally what we have experienced is excellent service going over the top! This time not so much. We are uncertain why this has changed. This is what separates out the “Palace” from the other RIU resorts. All in all a good trip but want that great service we usually get.

Overall RIU Palace Mexico is a good stay. Rooms and the hotel need some paint. It also need a little upgrade. Food overall was good. The beach was the best part of the resort. Staff at this property super nice and hard working.

The beach was nice, clean with very little seaweed in the water and no seaweed on the beach. The area between the pool and the beach was covered in palm trees so an umbrella wasn't needed to sit out close to the water. The pool area was clean and well maintained with one pool just for adults which was nice. The dining options were varied enough that we didn't have to just eat at the buffet style restaurant. The resort was big enough to be spacious, but not a lot of walking was needed to get from our room to the pools, restaurants or beach. The evening entertainment options were not that great and seemed geared towards an older crowd, but there were more entertainment options at the two other RIU resorts less than a five minute walk away
