Highly recommend this place especially for anyone who is celiac and especially for kids who are celiac. Staff were super friendly & helpful, excellent food, lots of activities on the go, fun water slides only a 5 min walk from the resort. My daughter is 9 and is celiac. When checking in I told them about her "gluten allergy", they immediately gave us a paper where any allergies are documented and our room number and told us to take it to any restaurant we ate at. She's super picky with food, we can't say enough good things about David & Monica, they're staff managers & dressed in black. They asked her what she wanted and would go and talk to the chef or the chef would come out. She had chicken nuggets, fries, pancakes, hashbrowns, sushi (loves avocado/cucumber rolls), bacon, chips & guac...lots of fruit, veggies, salads & various deserts. They could have made her more food like chicken, fish dishes etc. but she's picky. When I asked them if they had muffins, they brought out sealed little lemon muffins (so yummy!) & little sealed packages of mini gf bread. She was so happy to have food she could eat! It takes a little longer obviously so give yourself some extra time to wait for the food. They also told us if she didn't like anything at the other restaurants that she could have food from the buffet and bring it over to the other places we wanted to eat at. We did the zipline, animal sanctuary & snorkeling tour (Planet Dolphin tours) We love this resort & will be back!

I was recently at Riu Palace for 7 days and here is my experience: I don’t write many reviews but felt it would help visitors. The location is great and food was great. The room was very outdated and facility is in rough shape. I can understand it needs updating but I would say the rooms were not considered luxury and spa was outdated many things weren’t functioning. The staff was great but I would say the room smelled and felt like a motel not resort vibes at all. I would consider a different option as it almost ruined our vacation.

Great staff and service, beautiful grounds and landscaping, the pools are awesome, the beach is awesome, the food was average but good. The only negative was the room. Totally outdated, our room was way too small for 2 adults and 2 teenage boys, boys could not fit in the pull-out bed together and There was a bathtub in the middle of the room with no encloser. Very bizarre! We give the room a 1 star the rest of the resort a 4 star.

The property was very nice, the staff was excellent very nice and friendly. Walks on the beach the locals were very nice as well. The only issue is the keys to my room never worked. I had to visit the front desk every time we left our room which made it very annoying.

Comfortable and relaxing. Only downside, lots of Wi-fi issues, didn't trust using it.

This resort is marketed as 5 star. The food is decent with good variety but in too many cases lack both flavour or quality. The seafood tastes very fishy. Staff are nice but service is ordinary. The entertainment was also decent in most nights. The all inclusive package did not include the airport transportation which opens the guests to gauging by local taxis. The ocean-front rooms are so far from the ocean that only offer a distant, narrow and often partially obstructed view and are not worth the designation and extra cost. This resort should be marketed as 4 star max.
