We recently stayed at RIU- Palace resort and loved our room, service and pool. We were however disappointed with the food options available. Other than the breakfast the food was not very good, things that should be hot were cold. Also, the steak house option was the most difficult to access. We went three different nights and were told something different each night (its first come first serve, you need a reservations etc). Each time we went tables were not even filled up. When you pay for all-inclusive you are really hoping the food is worth the money. Other than this, the resort it self was lovely.

This was our second time staying at Riu Palace and we will be back. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The dining options are very good but you may want to venture off site if you are staying a whole week or more to avoid boredom with the food choices. There are plenty of beach and pool loungers, so no need to get up early to save them (although many do). We never had an issue getting chairs any time of day. The drinks are great. The hotel location is fantastic! Very happy with our experience here!
