Waking up to the stunning view of the blue waters from the room is simply breathtaking. The hotel offers beautiful, clean, and comfortable accommodations, though a slight musty smell could be detected at times. The friendly staff goes above and beyond to make your stay memorable, but some services like concierge assistance may lack promptness. The superb location near a small yet beautiful beach and close proximity to tourist spots make exploring easy. Dining options, although good, can lack variety for specific dietary requirements. Overall, a great value for a relaxing getaway.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and clean, but unfortunately, the smell of old tobacco lingered, which was off-putting. On the bright side, the room had a private bar, a walk-in closet, and a large bathroom. The service was friendly, although language barriers existed primarily as they mainly spoke Spanish. They were accommodating, filling our bar fridge with water, but there were multiple complaints about the music. The location was excellent for club-hopping and enjoying a small, beautiful beach nearby, offering easy access to tourist spots. The dining was surprisingly better than expected, with a lovely ocean view and personalized service. As for the facilities, they were adequate, but some areas seemed lacking. Overall, a stay with positives and negatives.

My stay at the hotel was fabulous! The rooms are great, with 2 sunbeds and a table and chairs on the terrace, offering a comfortable stay. However, the price per night per room is a bit high. The service was lovely and pretty much very attentive, although there were some issues with communication. The location is fab, right in the center of the Hotel zone party area, ideal for a fun time in Cancun. The dining experience was excellent, especially with the favorite omelet made by Miss Gaby each day. The facilities are top-notch, providing a luxurious experience.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The rooms were always clean and restocked, although they did have a musty smell. The fully stocked mini fridge was a great perk, and the spacious layout with a separate living room, walk-in closet, and large bathroom was impressive. The service exceeded my expectations, especially Rebecca at Reception, Daniel, Adrian, Elder, and Irene in the Restaurant, and the talented Chef Angel and his team. The location was superb, making it easy to access popular spots and offering a luxurious setting with elegant decor. The dining experience was varied, although some gluten-free options were lacking. Overall, a great value for a 5-star resort experience.

My stay at the RIU Palace in Aruba was absolutely wonderful! The ocean view room I had was spacious and well laid out, complete with a balcony to enjoy the gorgeous views. The service was top-notch, with staff going out of their way to assist, although housekeeping could use a bit of improvement. The location was excellent, close to the beach and within walking distance of the bustling nightlife. The dining experience was a mix of highs and lows, with standout dishes in the buffet but some room for improvement. The facilities were great, making my stay very enjoyable overall.

The location was convenient, being walking distance to popular spots like Coco Bongos and Senior Frogs, but the layout of the beds in the room was a bit odd. The dining options were varied, with some standout dishes, but not all meals met expectations. Overall, the facilities were decent but lacked the luxurious feel expected of a 5-star resort.
