Riu Palace Aruba

My wife and I returned from Aruba last week. We stayed at the RIU Palace on Palm Beach. Excellent location right on the beach with a large pool. This is an all inclusive resort and food was very good with a large selection. We ate at two speciality restaurants (Krystal a gourmet restaurant and Milano an Italian restaurant). Both were very good. We stayed in the main building on the 9th floor with a beautiful Ocean View. Room was recently renovated as most of the rooms have been. The pool is huge with a swim up bar and drinks are plentiful. You need to save a place at the pool around 7 am to be sure to get a good location at the pool. Staff was very friendly, especially the restaurant staff. We found the resort to be very clean with staff constantly cleaning. Beach is very nice with plenty of lounge chairs. I would recommend this resort for couples, singles and families. I would like to express my thanks and assistance to Santana at the front desk for his hospitality. We would definitely stay at this resort again. However, I was informed the resort is going to be closed for about six months this year to complete their renovations.

We had an incredible stay at the Hotel RIU Palace Aruba! From the moment we arrived, everything was amazing. The hotel is absolutely beautiful. Our room was spacious, clean, comfortable, and had a gorgeous view. The food was great, and we loved that it was all inclusive- there were delicious options available , along with unlimited food and drinks throughout our stay. The pool and beach were fantastic- clear blue water and soft sand. Each and every staff member were friendly, attentive, and gone above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We also felt very safe the entire time. We were able to walk around at night and enjoy nearby shopping, restaurants, and entertainment, which made the trip even more relaxing. We would highly recommend this resort and can't wait to come back!
