This is the perfect resort to feel absolutely fabulous, fun but also not toooo crazy. Relaxing when you need it to be for sure. The service 10/10 From the moment you step foot in the hotel.

Do not stay here! Their service was terrible. First room they tried to give us smelled like sewage and they tried to say it didn’t (even though in Spanish they were saying they agreed with us and didn’t know we spoke Spanish). They couldn’t move us until the next day. Wouldn’t upgrade us even tho we offered to pay. Overall service here is a joke and the management is horrible. The last night I asked the front desk if they had a first aid kit for a minor injury bc my partner slipped on their staircase and they didn’t have one. Instead they sent me to an on site “urgent care” that wouldn’t give an ice pack or ankle wrap. Lastly, the food here was also awful. I will never stay at any Riu property again purely because of the poor service. This was a one and done.

I do not believe this property is a 4 or 5 star property. At best 3.5 due to the food options. The best meal I had was during the romantic beach dinner that we had to pay an additional fee for. I went looking for that same food around the resort only to be disappointed. On the positive side our room was upgraded for my birthday and the balcony was amazing. I also that housekeepers did an outstanding job each day. They need better food options and be sure to bring US dollars because tipping is expensive and expected even for bad service.

Amazing Staff. Kind, quick and eager to serve. Property size is great to get around, big enough and beach very close to rooms. Nice Pool Bar to chill with music and drinks. Several sun beds everywhere. Food is great in every venue, even the sports bar which is 24 hours service. Drinks are amazing, many cocktails and spirits to choose from. Only BAD review, is that my package included airport shuttle and they did not arrange any, to get there and to go back to airport. So I spent 60USD on them. Location from the airport is around 30min. We had a great time.

This newly renovated property was so wonderful. We went in a group of 6 with my siblings and had an amazing time! The rooms were clean and comfortable for the week we stayed at the resort. The property was well kept with so many tropical plants. We ventured out to the other Riu properties that conjoin via a beach path and the Palace Macao was by far the best. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We went into town for dinner a the concierge called a car for us and gave recommendations. We ventured off the resort for excursions, but the resort has plenty to do where you would not have to leave. If you plan on going, download the Riu app. The app has a daily schedule of events and happenings with restaurant/bar menus for each resort. The food on the buffet was ok, but everything else was amazing! If the food at the restaurants for dinner doesn’t appeal to you, you can always take a short walk to eat at another property’s restaurant. There are also some shops on the Riu property that you can get souvenirs, sunscreen, clothing, etc.

The resort, beach and pools were great. The grounds were unbelievably clean and neat. My room was great.I enjoyed my balcony and despite being right above the karaoke bar once I closed the door i didn't hear any noise. Food was good but not great, enjoyable none the less. Breakfast buffet was good with lots of selections, desserts and smoothies. Fray at reception was very friendly and was my go to guy. Visited the water park and it was small but fun. Most staff were friendly but there was one or two bartenders that were a little grumpy. Customs and Punta airport was not a very good experience.

We booked a suite - it was terrible and completely misrepresented on the Expedia website. Very cramped in the bedroom. The bed was about a foot from the dresser (could barely walk in between) The closet was incredibly small. And so was the toilet room. The shower had a rain feature, but only made for one person. The website said there was a hot tub - nope, it was a tub that filled with “hot” water and no jets. Lastly - the sitting room area has terrible furniture with a fake leather cover that was not comfortable at all. Plus side - the outdoor property was nice and the bar staff was great. The best part of the property is the gym and wellness/spa area. The food was decent, but the restaurant choices were limited. And none of the restaurants served breakfast or lunch (buffet only)

We really enjoyed our stay there! We have never been to DR before and it was a great first time. The hotel is small but, not too small. The entire property is very walkable. I found the staff, extremely helpful and kind. For the restaurants in particular, the steakhouse and fusion restaurants were excellent. There is some shopping a few hotels down that is still part of the Rioux complex and that was very handy. But, I would’ve preferred more diversity in the shopping if it was near anywhere, but it really isn’t. Having said that, we would definitely stay there again.

Although the staff involved with daily activities around the resort were excellent, the staff at the front desk were less than helpful. At times, it seemed as though basic questions annoyed them. They were quick to send you to another staff member or ask you to come back at another time. The service around the pool was quick when Victor was working. Other employees were not as quick, but present. The lights in the public restrooms turn off within seconds so plan to do your business quickly. While discussing lights, there is a sensor light in the room which activates at the slightest move. If you are a light sleeper and sharing a room with someone else, get ready to be woken with each movement. There is no place on the resort to purchase basic items so be sure to bring everything you need if you do not expect to leave the property. There is a sign posted which reads that a doctor is available 24 hours. This is not true. When we went to the doctor to get a basic antacid, we found a couple who had been waiting for the doctor. They had been told by the front desk that the doctor was called and was twenty minutes away. The gym is clean, but the machines are positioned in direct sunlight with no shades on the window to block the UV rays. So, if you like to sunbath and workout at the sand time, this is a good thing for you. I for one do not. Overall, Hotel RIU Palace Macao is nice, but there are a few things which need improvement.

The only thing that could be improved on was the entertainment in the evening.

The property was very beautiful and I loved our balcony it was big and spacious with amazing views. The only thing I didnt like was the sewer smell in the room and I think the food options could be a little better.

Great all inclusive adults only resort! The service was excellent provided by prompt and friendly staff. The staff was not only polite and accommodating, but many went above and beyond by connecting and engaging with the resort goers, making a fun experience. The facilities were clean and well kept. The only thing that was lacking was the nightly entertainment. The opening entertainment was the same every night (Kahoot and awkward attempt at dancing with the crowd- maybe try just opening up the dancing area to all instead of pulling up only a few guests). The shows were overall pretty cheesy and lack luster. Think bad lip syncing. When there is a Riu party there is not another option in the evening and the party scene is not everyone's thing. Overall a great choice and I would book here again.
