We had a fantastic time at the RIU Palace, especially celebrating our 10th anniversary. The location offers a nice balance of being away from the hustle, yet close enough to downtown Cabo. The staff were incredibly accommodating, but the lack of cash services was a significant drawback. The cleanliness and the dining options also exceeded our expectations, even though we had a hiccup with our room assignment initially.

The initial room we were given was a partial view instead of the ocean view we paid for. However, after a few days, we were moved to a better room that offered the spectacular view we were hoping for.

I had a wonderful time at this resort! The overall vibe is great, with beautiful views and a warm atmosphere. The staff were very attentive, ensuring a memorable stay for me and my boyfriend. However, while the food was generally good, I think some areas could benefit from improvement, especially in terms of entertainment options at night. Still, it was a relaxing getaway, and I’d certainly return.

I was disappointed with my stay, especially since I had high hopes from previous all-inclusive experiences. While we did get to enjoy the pools and a beautiful view, the lack of empathy for guests with mobility issues and the overall service really let us down. The dining options were also quite poor, making the trip less enjoyable than I had expected.
