I went to celebrate a birthday! It was a couple trip to create memories!! Their staff were amazing and friendly! When I checked in they free upgraded our room for being a gold member with expedia! With no additional cost! They gave us a room with a huge balcony where we were able to see the night show from there including a jacuzzi! It was a great experience!! Their variety of food was so good and they had the most amazing team in their restaurants ! Each night we had the experience to make a reservation for their different restaurants beside the main restaurant buffet style. Such a great experience!! Riu palace never fails to amaze me! Highly recommended

Nice property very safe for solo travelers. Right next to the beach so I loved that. It was kind of hard to get a palapa or chair by the pool if you didn’t go out early around 6/7am which was a little aggravating at times. The room was nice however the sliding door on the balcony was broken and hard to slide open, the shower head was a bit broken, the sink drain had some rust on it, & the sheets had some stains on the edge, so updates definitely need to be made to the room. The food was good it wasn’t all that but considering I booked this trip last minute it was not a terrible experience but an average one!

My first stay at The RIU PALACE ARUBA was 12 years ago and I really enjoyed my stay and the cleanliness of the facility. I decided to return this February 2024 and I was disappointed with condition of some things at the facility : The ice machine on the 3rd floor was out of service and you had to go to the 6th or 9th floor for ice , The refrigerator in my room did not work properly , The main bathrooms needed to be monitored and cleaned in a more timely manner and The air conditioning left our cloths musty smelling and we had to wash all of our clothing when we returned to our home in Florida. I Will Not Return to RIU ARUBA, but I have already Booked a week's stay at The RIU Montego Bay Jamacia for next January 2025 Because it was built in 2020 and looks like a much Newer and Up to Date Resort. The staff and restaurants were excellent, but I really think this resort is in need of some upgrades? The Resort Is Definitely Showing Its Age

As soon as we walked in we were offered glass of champagne! That was a nice touch. But I booked 2 queen beds, w a jr suite. but Jonathan at the front desk gave me a king bed. He said that was “suggested preference “ how can they do that? I pd for 2 queens and should have gotten it. After complaining, 2 days later they offered to change rooms, but by that time we were already settled. N they offered a smaller room n not at a good location. The check in process was not pleasant. It was their busy season. But the grounds are beautiful, staff is very pleasant, restaurant food is amazing. Very surprised how good it was. Except the specialty Japanese restaurant, I’m from NY do we know good Japanese restaurants, this was not it. Other than that food was excellent.
