Impressive RIU Property

RIU Palace Cancún is the best RIU property we have stayed at so far! You can tell that the staff genuinely care about the hotel and the experience they provide. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, and they made my birthday trip feel extra special. The entire property was incredibly clean, and the food was great at every restaurant we tried. I also loved that reservations were not required for dinner, unlike at some other properties. It made the experience much easier and more relaxing. The beach was easily the best part. It was absolutely gorgeous, and the staff worked constantly to keep it clean and safe. We also loved the RIU Fit team and the entertainment staff. There was always something fun happening during the day and in the evening. My only disappointment was how far away the RIU Party location was. Transportation is available, but the distance honestly made us skip the parties, even though we normally love attending them when we stay at other RIU resorts. Thankfully, the entertainment team and evening activities at the hotel still kept us entertained, so it did not take away from the trip. Overall, we had an amazing stay and would absolutely return. Great job, RIU Palace Cancún!

Amazing Hotel

We were there as a group of 6 - 3 couples - this hotel was amazing - from the moment we checked in the reception staff are wonderful. We had an issue with our air conditioning not being cold enough and went down to reception who immediately offered us another room, they gave us the key and asked us to go and look to see if this was cooler but it was at the same temperature so they then offered us another room and again we went to look, the temperature was perfect so we moved all our items into this room. Impeccable customer service from them. This room had a pool and sea view and was such a beautiful view. We could not fault anything - the staff are all amazing from the cleaners, bar staff, pool bar staff, entertainment, concierge - everybody went out of their way to help. To name a few there was Abu in the Bar, he was brilliant and could copy so many accents he was so funny and very quick at making sure everyone had whatever drinks they wanted - Lucero (or as we called her Lucy) she was so sweet, always smiling and always over asking if we wanted another drink - most of the staff are like this it was just Lucy made more of an impression on us, she was wonderful and lastly Jimmy at the Pool Bar - my goodness to work out in that heat and always have a smile on your face and be running around all the time. As I said all the staff were lovely and I wish we had taken a note of more of their names but these are the ones that stuck out for us. Just a note on the cleaners - wow they work hard - the room across from us was vacant and they must have been in that room for almost an hour getting it ready for the next guests as I walked by I looked in and the bed was pulled out and the furniture all out - they really give it a good clean which is comforting to know. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Married couple trip

Stayed here a few years back with my wife, we had a to of fun. I really loved the steakhouse and the Italian restaurant. They had a 24hr food and great room service. The service was amazing. We were there in summer and the pool was hot. But the ocean was cool and was great for relief. The rooms are a little dated but very clean. The coffee bar was perfect was to cool down with a frappe. Food was really good everywhere.

We would go again.

Repeat guest and still love it.

We have been going to Palace Las Americas since 2018 and it has yet to get old for us. It is like going back to an old friend. Yes there are things that need repair but that is expected of a mature building. But the maintenance personnel are very attentive, professional and punctual. As usual the best part of our stays are the buffets. Anytime of day the food is varied and excellent. The pools are clean as well as the beach. The service from all the servers is done with a smile. The coffee bar was a great addition. They have the most delicious offerings. For us it was the carrot and the chocolate cakes. We got to see the Michael Jackson show for about the 3rd or 4th time but it is alway enjoyable. The team performers work their butts off. Not just for the performances but at the pool areas. I have only one negative and that as we have gotten older we would really like to get a jr suite in the quiet area of the hotel away from the theater. We enjoy the shows but sometimes we don't stay up for the late shows but the sound from the theater is a bother until it shuts down at 11pm. Next time I do hope that the hotel will accommodate our request for a quiet area. Other than that I definitely will be returning next year...God willing.
