Beautiful hotel!

Great resort. The hotel is breathtaking and very elegant. The rooms are a little outdated but I understand they are beginning renovations soon. The food is amazing and plenty of options to choose from. The hotel is kept very clean and staff are very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return here again.

Beautiful Resort

Excellent, the staff very helpful and the happiest people ever, cleanness was excellent , rooms cleaned and towels changed twice a day, food there was a lot of variety and well prepared and presented, I had a wonderful vacation and like to visit different places and would most likely return in to Aruba and RIU Palace

Amazing with a couple of glitches.

We are very happy with our choice of resort. The location was the best. The rooms clean and service very good. Just 2 things need improvement for us. 1. more washrooms at the pool area 2. better food for all the restaurants especially the buffet. We are told that the company plans to renovate the rooms and yes they could use an update but they were fine for our vacation. The resort looks the grandest on the Palm Beach.

Beautiful resort

The hotel was beautiful, everyone was really nice, the rooms were big and clean. The food was always good and different each day. Beach was gorgeous, the entertainment was always fun and interactive, overall best resort I've travelled too

Amazing honeymoon!!

The service was amazing! The food delicious! The resort and beach were super clean. Lovely spa:) nothing to complain about, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would recommend it to anyone. Great vacation

Amazing!!

Hotel was clean, food excellent, check in was organized, in the evenings walking to town was safe and easy, lots to do. After reading some reviews we were questioning our choice on this hotel, but we (there were 4 adults in our group) all said we would recommend this hotel. We have all travelled to many islands, cruises and Europe. One day the beach was very windy, otherwise we sat everyday on the beach.

Very nice resort

This was our 2nd visit to Aruba and at the Riu Palace. As usual, Aruba is a beautiful place to visit. The Riu hotel is also great, however it is starting to show signs that it is a little dated. Hotel wait staff are great and always friendly. Stay away from the hotel manager as he was not very helpful to us as we had an incident at the hotel with our daughter during our stay. He showed little care and compassion for the unfortunate situation that occured while we were dining in one of the hotel  [... read more]restaurants. Aside from that, Aruba is a wonderful island to visit and we cant wait to go back. However, because of our experience, I dont think we will return to the Riu Aruba.

Relaxing time

Beautiful place, lots of restaurants and bars. Freddie in the main lobby bar is a fantastic ambassador for the Riu brand. Outside the resort is very secure and safe to walk about. The islanders are very friendly, so it made for a very relaxing trip. The older side of the resort could us some upgrading to the rooms and this to me was the only downside of our stay.

RIU Aruba

RIU Aruba features: a gorgeous beach with white sand and turquoise water. Delicious meals with a lot of variety. Clean rooms and public areas. Huge pool with lots of chairs and shade. The resort lacks nightly entertainment.

I Think I Went To Heaven.

The RIU Palace Aruba Is One Of The Most Beautiful Resort We Have Ever Stayed At. Aruba Is One Of The Safest Islands To Visit. And Has The Cleanest Water In The World.We brought Our 8 Month Old Grandson With Us And Found The Walkways At The Back Of Resorts Were Perfect For Stroller walks.In Front Of The Resort Is All Kinds Of Restaurants And Shops.

Pleasant Stay

Hotel is in a good location right on a nice sandy beach. Food and service was very good all the staff were very pleasant. It was easy to get into town as the local bus stopped outside the hotel and cost about $2. Car rentals were expensive from the hotel so go down the road to Budget much cheaper. There were always plenty of lounge chairs for the pool or beach.
