Riu Palace Aruba - All Inclusive

great location, clean. Front end staff were very helpful and pleasant.

Everything included, always food and alcohol available, beautiful rooms. Breakfast is amazing! Cocktail bar is the best. Good location but you don't need to get our of the hotel. Huge pool and private beach.

The hotel was beautiful & staff were very friendly and helpful. We stayed in a junior suite and our room was very large with a huge balcony & jacuzzi tub on the balcony (however, we did not use it ) we had a partial ocean view. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was large & shower was fantastic. The room came with a liquor dispenser ( we also didn’t use it) and fridge was stocked daily with large bottles of water & pop. The pool area was beautiful with plenty of room, daily activities were very entertaining & pool bar staff extremely friendly. Staff walked around to see if you needed anything from the bar often. The beach area was well kept and plenty of loungers to use. The nightly shows were fun & entertaining. The lobby bar provided delicious variety of cocktails & staff came around to tables often to take drink orders. The restaurants were first come first serve ( no pre booking) but if you got in line 30 min before open you always got a table. The food was fantastic! We chose steak & lobster most nights but they had a Japanese restaurant with delicious tapas & Italian restaurant. The buffets were fabulous as well and I am not usually a fan of buffets but everything was freshly made and delicious. They were extremely helpful with booking excursions. I would definitely stay here again!

Great location and good food at buffet and restaurants. Staff was friendly. Pool and beach areas were great. Close to Butterfly farm and shopping nearby. Great onsite nightly entertainment. Pool swim up bar was nice as well.

The location was excellent, service was great, the pool was great, and the drinks were magnificent. The buffet at Don Nicholas was very good as well. Room was kind of old-fashioned but very clean, and I loved the shower.
