Worth every penny. My first all inclusive resort and I’m already planning going again to the same place. No need to shop around when I’m already more than satisfied. Definitely recommend!!!

A Royal Escape in Cancun
From the moment we walked in, Riu Palace Las Americas felt like pure luxury. The beachfront views were unreal, the service was top-notch, and the food? we’re still dreaming about the buffet. The adults-only vibe made it super relaxing, and the swim-up bar was the cherry on top.

Just ok
Air fresheners throughout the property are too overbearing. The speciality restaurants are a level lower quality than the quality you get from a cruise speciality restaurant. Shower head came off the wall when turned on and gave bruises. It was reattached in a swift manner. Loud partiers smoking weed woke us up. Good pools.
