We had our family of four at Riu Palace Costa Rica for Spring Break. The property was very clean, staff was wonderful, and the dining options were top-notch for an all-inclusive resort. We had a wonderful time and will likely return.

The rooms smelled terribly and were very outdated. The public bahtrooms were sprayed constantly with a very perfume chemical that made my family gag. The food was ok. The pools were nice.
