My girlfriend and I stayed at the Riu Palace Las Americas for 2 weeks from the 10th - 24th June 2009. I would consider myself to be well travelled and have stayed in many 4 / 5 star hotels worldwide. Check-In We arrived at the hotel at around 5:30pm and were instantly seated at a table in the exquisite Lobby... more

My husband and I both agreed that this was our best hotel experience ever. The staff was amazingly friendly and attentive. They made us feel like royalty. The room, hotel, and grounds were immaculate. This hotel was an all inclusive paradise. more

I stayed at Riu Palace las Americas in early June and money was stolen out of our safe. I contacted Riu Palace several times and I did not get any response. The hotel smelled like mold and outdated. I will not return and there are better resorts in Cancun for the same price!! more

Overall, great experience here back in 2007. I look forward to going back one day. A very grand experience - all first class.

As many of you TripAdvisors readers have likely done already, I did my research too before my visit: you know, you get over informed about this hotel and others before booking. I had high expectations and virtually knew from the websites what the rooms lobby, pools, and restaurants looked like. Everything lives up to once's expectations, the place is grand,... more

This hotel is amazing. From the moment you arrive you will love it. The reception is very grand and the staff make you feel very welcome, giving you cocktails on arrival. The rooms are beautiful, very clean with a well stocked mini bar. The view over the pool into the ocean is amazing. All of the restaurants in the hotel... more
