I recently came back from a 10 day trip to Aruba. This is the 3rd trip I have taken there and stayed at the RIU. Each time I went it was getting worse. I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt. However, on my final stay there when we arrived the rooms we were promised and had paid... More

Our room stunk of mildew and had the most horrible view possible. Jonathan at the reception was a disappontment when doing the check in and the check out. The info he gave was scarse and not helpful at all. To get free beach chairs and a hut was a nightmare. Anonymous hands had them booked even if that is not... More

We just returned back from a 5 night stay at the RIU palace (1/26-1/31). I traveled with my husband, 9 month old daughter, sister, brother-in-law and my parents. Our stay was fantastic and I am totally perplexed by all of the bad reviews I read prior to our stay. They actually really stressed me out and made me think we... More

We thoroughly enjoyed the Riu Palace! All of the staff were friendly towards us; the food was amazing - yes, even the buffet! Admittedly, the nightlife is a bit 'dry' but seriously, there is so much to do at night...walking, casino's etc...that I can't imagine anyone being bored! Thanks to all of the staff who made our stay so much... More

I just returned from a 7 night stay with my husband and my in-laws. We had 2 junior ocean view suites on the 9th floor of building A and we could not have enjoyed our stay more! Absolutely no complaints and with 4 people staying at an all-inclusive, that is pretty difficult to accomplish! The food was delicious- no need... More

My girlfriends and I recently returned from the Riu Palace Aruba. Overall we had a great time. Our Junior Suite had a great view and the cleaning staff kept our room clean and mini bar well stocked. The buffet and restaurants were very good and my faviourite was Krystal. The hotel and pool could a little TLC but overall everything... More

My wife and I vacationed at this resort Jan 19-26 2012. The Riu Palace Aruba is a very nice resort. The food is good, the staff is very nice and the hotel is very clean! But now to start with the rest of my Riu Palace Aruba experience!! My wife and I get to the resort check- in, get our... More

The RIU PALACE ARUBA is a medium-sized resort and easy to navigate. The staff was efficient, friendly and helpful. Our room was cleaned each morning around the same time and the refrigerator was replenished each day. We had no problems with elevators. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained. Wi-Fi was intermittent and only available in the lobby and the... More

This was our 3rd all-inclusive in a year. None of the others were RIUs, but they are the only ones I can compare the RIU Palace too. Right off the bat I can say we enjoyed this one the best! The other 2 were the "NH Real Arena" in Dominican Republic & "Sunset At The Palms" in Jamaica. Location: Only... More
