What Do People Think About Staying At The Hotel Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas?
absolutely loved spending my vacation here, definitely want to come back! there’s so much to do and a great place to relax and have drinks. customer service was always amazing, definitely recommend for a getaway trip with significant other or with friends! amazing price as well.
Our third time here. The service and people are still wonderful, best part of the stay. I boasted about the dinning and food to our first time to Riu Palace Cabo traveling companions. This time, except for the buffet, the cuisines were terrible. The worse in my frequent all-inclusive experiences. 2 years ago the fine dining food here was great. We had a nice stay.
Just left here yesterday was amazing resort, everyone is so nice here i asked for a drink they brought it to me and poured it, and they pulled out the chair for me to sit all of the workers were just overly kind. Pool activities were fun the entertainment team was fun although i wasn’t old enough to do some of the activities but aye it was fun. Also the food was so good i had so many plates the french toast is to die for.
We had a good stay, but would like to mention a few things.. We paid for the Elite Club rewards and perks. The Elite pools, cabanas and restaurants were not monitored for olive colored wrist-band patrons, what's the point in paying extra if everyone is allowed in those areas? The pool areas are baron with no palm trees at all, just cacti. Umbrellas were taken by 6;30 in the morning. Going to be very hot in those areas. entertainment was really not much of anything, however the White Party at the Santa Fe was awesome! Guacamole Restaurant food wasn't the best, but the Promenade was the place to be for breakfast and lunch. Room was nice and clean, staff was ok. We like being able to share the other hotels although we didn't use except for the White Party. Adults only is best. Would stay again...
We went for a four-day getaway to Riu Palace. The property is large but not unmanageable. The staff attentive, friendly and helpful. As most all-inclusive resorts go, they are not known for the quality of food. We were pleasantly surprised at Riu Palace. The choices for us vegetarians were plenty! The presentation and taste were also commendable!! The specialty restaurants cold manage to tweak dishes on the menu to make them Veg. The drinks in the pool bars were ok but the ones in the lobby were exceptional. The room was well appointed and bathroom had basic amenities. Linen quality was also good.A minor issue - the signs around the restaurants showed Bombay as being open at 7 pm in the evening and also had a menu displayed. We went back at 7:30 pm for dinner only to see that the restaurant was closed and undergoing renovation!Two days later it became a Mexican restaurant! No signs or fanfare or notification that a new restaurant was open on the property!
The hotel itself was amazing. Very clean, crew were constantly cleaning the common areas , beautiful views, great variety of food. It would have gotten a 5 star if it wasn’t for hotel/airport transfer issue we had. They don’t offer transfers if you don’t book directly using the hotel website(that’s what the hotel staff told me once I asked for a hotel transfer). I had to book a shuttle through Grey line. They have a representative (Ricardo) inside the hotel as soon as I arrived at the hotel I met with Ricardo and scheduled my shuttle for hotel to airport. The pickup was scheduled at 12:25 pm and thinking I met with a representative, I didn’t expect this to be an actual scam!! I waited at lobby entrance from 12:00pm till 12:50pm, no Grey line shuttle showed up, no one announced our name or anything. I kept asking the valets crew if our shuttle is here and they said no! At 12:50 I sent a message to Ricardo asking what’s going on and he responded the shuttle was there nobody showed up and he left!!! He also send me generic photo of the front of a van( no logo or anything on the van)!! Just like that! No more help and he stopped responding to my messages. No refunds nothing! I got last minute cab and made it to my flight but this left a very bad memory of this hotel in my mind. They need to think about guest transfers and work with reputable shuttles only.
Amazing stay here having two ocean view adjoining rooms. Rooms were very clean and up to date with no issues. Service was top notch. Great food and drinks. Line ups move fast especially at the bars. Entertainment was fun to watch. Property is very beautiful with amazing pools. Love this place. Coming back here again May 29 and I can’t wait!
I cannot recommend this resort to anyone due to the rampant theft and the complete indifference of management. Our group of 20 was here for a wedding, and multiple rooms were robbed—including three separate incidents that were deeply upsetting:-A bridesmaid walked in on an male employee actively going through her purse in her room.-A relative of the groom had all her jewelry stolen, including her wedding ring.-We had all of our cash stolen from our safe, and to this day, we have no idea how they accessed it.The worst part? Management did not care at all. Their response was dismissive—they simply told us to fill out a form and insisted no one besides guests had accessed the rooms (which was clearly false). There were no attempts to investigate, no compensation, and no accountability.Even the police admitted this is a common issue at this hotel due to the lack of cameras outside the rooms. This resort does not take security seriously, and unfortunately, guests are paying the price.If you value your safety and belongings, stay somewhere else.
The service was top notch here. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family. The food was great at every place we visited. The rooms are a little older, but they were kept clean. The whole place was kept clean. They had some cleaning something all the time. I even saw someone walking around checking the pool water. Blanca went above and beyond at the breakfast buffet. Oscar kept checking on us while at the pool loungers.
Excellent for going on vacation and relaxing, it is very comfortable and even more so if you are going to party , I loved it.The resort is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking ocean views, modern decor, and a luxurious atmosphere that made us feel pampered throughout our stay.The drinks were top-notch, and the bartenders were always friendly and attentive.One of the highlights of our stay was the incredible pool area—relaxing by the infinity pool with a cocktail in hand while overlooking the ocean was pure bliss. We left feeling completely refreshed and already can’t wait to return!If you’re looking for a luxurious, family friendly with exceptional service, delicious food, and a relaxing yet lively atmosphere, Hotel Riu Palace Cabo is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!
The pools and other amenities were great. Staff was very helpful and kind. The rooms were large, and comfortable. However, the quality of the food was unpredictablethe biggest. The Italian restaurant was the best meal we had, but the Steakhouse was not worth the wait.
My daughter and I had a terrific time. Enjoyed the accessibility to adjoining resorts. Plenty to do or not do. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Easy to arrange off-site activities. Loved the camel ride and arch tour. Clean.
I recently stayed at the Riu Palace in Los Cabos, and it was absolutely wonderful. The grounds are beautifully maintained—clean, meticulous, and well-manicured. There are several pools to choose from, catering to different preferences. If you’re looking for a lively atmosphere, the pool with the swim-up bar is the busiest. For a more peaceful and relaxing experience, the larger pools are perfect.Drink service is excellent, with staff frequently coming around to take orders. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-kept, with good service from housekeeping, including turndown service at night.The food is great, with a variety of restaurants to choose from, including French, Japanese, Indian, Italian, and a steakhouse. The best part—no reservations are needed!Between the three Riu resorts in Cabo, I would definitely recommend the Riu Palace for its beautiful setting, excellent service, and overall relaxing experience.
The resort is beautiful and clean. The staff was very accommodating. Certain restaurants on property should advertise the need for reservations, and the lack of elevators in the resident quarters was difficult to navigate. However, the entertainment was wonderful, and there were adult only spaces to enjoy.
We loved the first come first serve à la cart restaurants. This was so much better than getting up at the crack of dawn to make reservations. We had the steakhouse, Krystal, and Italian. Krystal was our favourite. The resort has a huge beautiful beach that is suitable to swim and play in the rolling waves for people who know how to swim well (not for people with mobility issues or who aren’t strong swimmers). You can walk or run about 1km down the beach to the marina or you can walk the other direction down the same nice sandy beach for also about 1km to some cool rock formations. Fantastic upkeep of the venue! Everywhere you go there are employees cleaning and doing maintenance on the property. We had a garden view room and with that we still had a partial ocean and pool view. There are lots of amenities/things to do at the resort, especially since you can also access the Santa Fe if you want something different. The Palace has almost no waits for bar service and has a special “Palace” service area” at the Riu Parties also with no waits and premium drinks. We were spoiled with amazing food, friendly staff, and felt it was great value for the money we spent. Contrary to what I had read prior to arriving, we had no issues getting lounge chairs on the beach or at the pool and could change spots throughout the day without issues finding new ones to sit in. The entertainment was good and the water slides were a blast.
DON’t EVER STAY IN THIS HOTEL, YOUR ROOM WILL BE ROBED BY THE HOTEL PERSONNEL BY ORDERS OF THE MANAGER
They pick you up straight from the airport and bring you to the hotel. Room was the perfect size, view was amazing, every morning there was turn down service, multiple buffets to choose from and everything you can just ask for and have because it's all inclusive, you just ask for a taxi or a ride somewhere and you get it in minutes and the Rui parties are SO fun we loved every minute of it. Planning on going back again one day too.
I'm thinking of going there on my next vacation. Thank goodness I saw too many notes on social media that they rob you in this hotel when you leave the room. Careful! They leave you with nothing!
A hotel where they break into your room while you're not there to rob you!!! If there are already several comments of this type, do something!!!
We stayed here for a family vacation! 6 adults and one child! We had a great time. The entertainment team is amazing! (Ivan- Sebastian-Orlando and all the others) get to know them and have some fun! They made my daughter feel so welcome and always made sure we had fun! Our housekeeper was a gem & the servers! Important to note that you cannot swim in the ocean in front of the hotel- the currents are too dangerous. But it's beautiful and you can dip your feet, tan etc. also don't ever take the first price the beach sellers give you. Dont pay for anything over $10 🙂 Take a water taxi and they can drop you off at a beach that's swimable! Worth it!Only small complaint would be to have a little bit of a thicker blanket in the rooms- gets chilly with AC - luckily we had our own and that worked. All in all - great time!
Customer service is absolutely incredible. They upgraded our room for free also decorated our room for my wife birthday. The pool is absolutely relaxing with enough room to move around. You have access to all the other resort’s perfect for the kids to hit the pool. The food selection is amazing along with the drinks. The night time shows are incredible as well. Definitely will be returning again.
This is our second time at Riu Palace, and so far, I have no complaints. The room is cleaned daily, the food is great and there's a big variety. The pool is always clean, and the bars are clean, and you can get your drinks pretty quickly.Not to mention, in the dining area, there's a lady (Maricela) she goes above and beyond to make you feel like at home. She always has a smile on her face and prepares your table by the time you come back with your food.
The scenery and staff are lovely. There are many activities happening each day and the food is amazing. Not much to look forward to outside the resort as it is on a desert coast. Don't drink the tap water but the water they give you at the restaurants is safe.Beds are comfy and amenities are refreshed daily. Be sure to take some time to sit somewhere and listen to the ambient noises to relax and do nothing for a bit
Overall the place is good. Huge. Reasonable walk from town along the beach, if you can ignore the near constant pestering from people trying to sell you literally anything....Several food options, all basically buffet style as expected. Very Americanized options, would have like a spot or two with something a bit more local. The few sit-down style table service options had limited menus and creativity, but it was all good.Booze flows and fast if that's your thing. Multiple pools, some louder than others.Rooms are fine but depending on where you are, can be a long walk.Certainly caters to the tourist crowd, not crazy, but if you weren't in Mexico, you could be on any Gulf of Mexico beach resort in the States...
This is our go to Cabo resort. Friends and family have joined us. Many different restaurants on site. Pools aren’t overly crowded. People are much friendlier than we saw in Cancun. We went 3 different times over 2 years. Swim out pool is the way to go. Reserve early. It’s nice to hang out in your own pool and people watch the main pool. 4 bottles of liquor in your room that they will refill on request. Rooms are always stocked with waters, soda, mixers, and beer. Employees are very nice. A small tip goes a long way and your drink glass will never be empty. Beach, sand, and ocean are not as nice as Cancun. I prefer Cabo, wife prefers Cancun. I think Cabo has a bigger bang for your buck than Cancun. The vacationers are a lot different too.
