Already booked for next year !!
Absolutely loved this place !! We had a great room on the corner of the hotel, overlooking the gardens, pools and with a sea view, couldn’t ask for better views really. It was our wedding Anniversary while we were there and we were left a nice canvas picture and a lovely message from the hotel management ( nice touch)…Food was great…. Buffet was good and other restaurants were excellent…. Our favourites being Crystals and the steak house. Staff were great, especially at the pool bar. Room cleaned daily. Lovely beach and ocean… lots of drinks to be had. Even wandered to the other Riu hotels and had a few drinks. Plenty of activities to do in the day time if you want to…. However…. We found the evening entertainment not too good. I had a little accident on the day we were leaving, where I stupidly put our case on the glass topped coffee table in our room…. We told them at reception when we were checking out and they were fine…. We did pay for the damage $70. We would recommend this hotel to anyone… so much so that we have already booked to go back next year…. But this time for 14days instead of 10.

Our recent stay at the Macao
Visited the Rui Palace Macao in the first week of June. This was our first visit here and after reading some of the less positive reviews we were a little nervous as to what we would find. These fears were quickly quashed as we were met with smiling helpful reception staff who checked us in with the minimum of fuss. Our room was a junior suite which was a good size with a very large double bed. The mini bar was well stocked and the shower was a large walk in type. We took some damp rid bags after reading about the damp in some rooms. Ours were bearly filled as we left the air con on all the time. The hotel boasts a buffet restaurant which has a good selection of dishes during the meal times and has themed nights which will cater for most peoples tastes. It also has al la carte restaurants serving Italian and steaks ect. We found these not to our taste but others who we spoke to rated them highly. You will never go hungry at the Macao. They have several bars which are very good and the drinks plentiful with many branded labels to suit even the most fussy drinker. We found the daytime entertainment chilled with plenty to do if you wanted to take part. The evening entertainment for us was hit and miss. Lots of local dancing and music as you would expect in the Dominican Republic. The biggest asset of the hotel is its staff who we found very polite and helpful and made our stay extra special. The Macao being adults only is the quieter of the Rui hotels on this complex which suited us. But if you wanted it more lively then you can use the other hotels a short walk away for the evening entertainment and drinks. Pros: Staff, relaxed atmosphere and quality of the food and drinks Cons: Some of the other guests around the swim up bar can get very loud at times. We avoided them by using another of the pools available.

Not a Riu we enjoyed.
This was our first time at this Riu Palace Macao. We've stayed at several other Rius over the last 15 years. Unfortunately, this one disappointed us. CONS: We've paid extra for a beach view room. We were in building 5 and our room faced another building. We didn't go back to the front desk and ask for another room. From what I've read in other reviews, they rarely honor room choice. The Riu grounds were fairly clean. Our room was never cleaned. I went into the hall and requested clean towels, wash cloths, toilet paper and tissues. On our last day the cleaning lady did finally come, but left a note stating she could not clean our room due to our safe being open. That I appreciated. PROS: Room was large and was clean when we arrived. Everything worked. Take a Damprid bag. Ours was almost full of water the day we left. No issues with bugs, mold, etc. The food was fairly good. Lots of choices and several restaurants to choose from. A storm came through on our first night and the seaweed was horrible. They rarely worked removing it. It smelled awful and kept us from enjoying the ocean. There were tons of available chairs at the beach and staff did bring you drinks. Smoking was everywhere. In the pool, at the buffet. etc. Dress code was extremely relaxed. People in bathing suits without cover ups. Finally, we would not recommend this Riu to our friends. We will not vacation here again.

Realy good Holiday resort
Very good holiday resort. Very friendly staff, excellent entertaent team. Many restaurant with various kinds of good food. Very good quality of international alkohol. It was realy nice stay except two small inconveniences: 1. Nice evening with music, but why only local musić? Bachata, mengue arę nice to dance, but why every evemimg almost the same musić. I prefer variety with more international hits. 2. For two weeks there, I killed three cockroachs in my room

Excellent
Just returned from Riu Palace Macao for 10 days with two sons aged 23 and 21. We’ve all thoroughly enjoyed it, superb hotel, lovely grounds, staff are very attentive and theres lots of them (wouldn’t like their payroll!). Loads of variety in food, with all their different restaurants and theme nights. Theres something for everyone. If you want to party you can, and if you don’t then you don’t have to! Room was lovely no issues at all. We visited punta Cana palace whilst there which appeared much busier around the pool area, probably because children are allowed there. Beach was slightly disappointing due to seaweed, but certain things are beyond our control, they were doing the best they could trying to clean it up. The only thing I would suggest is a net around the volley ball area, because if you’re sat on the nearby sun loungers, you do get hit! We had an amazing time, just book it! You won’t be disappointed!
