We liked the drinks but the food was horrible, they need to improve on the quality. When we got to the room, the bathroom was not cleaned and my kids got sick because of the food. We left the hotel the next day. I do not recommend this hotel at all.

Pros (+) I went to Riu Palace Punta Cana with my partner and my in-laws for my friend's wedding. I cannot find enough words to describe how much we loved our stay at the hotel. We had an amazing time and loved that the staff was so friendly and accommodated us anyway they could. I would without doubt recommend this resort to anyone!! I would surely love to go back!
Cons (-) There is not one thing that I can think of that I did not like about the resort. Everything was on point and worth the money!
