Awesome Aruba Trip
My husband and I stayed at an elite ocean front room at RIU Palace Aruba. Absolutely wonderful trip will be returning next year for another winter break. Clean hotel and clean, white sand beach. Staff wonderful, especially Angie in the elite bar who makes a killer bourbon old fashion and Yamilena in the elite restaurant. Food was fantastic in all venues. Elite package is way to go, provides some additional offerings such as private pool which is nice option when you want a little quieter atmosphere. Resort isn’t too big that you feel overwhelmed and close to town if you want to adventure in, very safe. Love Aruba!

Wonderful, adult only resort.
Paola was the most wonderful woman on staff at the RIU. Her smile at the beach towel room lit up the area every day. Everyone worked hard to make a very clean, well-kept resort. The food was delicious and except for the signs in the buffet being incorrect we were able to navigate what the foods were without an issue.

The best all inclusive!
Loved our first time in Aruba. A country that prides itself and being very safe and having excellent drinking water created by the desalination plant. A very arid and plenty of cactus in the desert setting. We had a five stop air conditioned bus trip and a sunset sail on a catamaran that was absolutely wonderful. The beaches are clean and easy to walk with beautiful views. A true slice of paradise can’t say enough about the Riu Antillas staff. They are on top of things and help you with any questions. The property is easy to walk, easy access to the pools and with five restaurants it was wonderful.

Most amazing trip ever
This was as an adult sibling vacation. Amazing is all I can say. From the moment we walked into mimosas and greeted by the front desk, to the bell boys and gorgeous room. Everyone we meet was happy and helpful. Down the pools and beach, just beautiful. Tons of activities and eating options. Having a ability to walk over the family hotel and eat there was great. Just amazing

THIS HOTEL IS AWEFUL
We booked this hotel for our 30th anniversary. When we checked into this hotel the staff was very friendly. However when we were brought to our room it had 2 twin beds, there wasn't any bedding other than sheets. the mattresses were this and were hard as can be, as ere the pillows. after the 1st night we went to the front desk to see if we can change our room and were told the rooms were assigned on a first come first serve basis BUT they can upgrade us for a fee. We checked out the next day. I would NOT recommend this hotel.
