Property is in a beautiful place. Well cared for. The food service staff is on point. The staff coming around for drinks are hit or miss depending on the day. The food; let’s just say don’t come visit based on the food. It’s average to below average at best. Not sure if I would visit here again.

This is one of the better Riu properties we have stayed at. The views were absolutely amazing. We do wish more rooms we're oceanfront views. Also the steak did not have any seasoning on it. Bringing some next time. We booked our transportaion through Orbitz, tgere wasn't a designated person to guide us to the correct space tp wait. Orbitz said one name for Shuttle service and when we got there it was something else. No signs either. Did not like that from Orbitz.

We have stayed at other RIU properties that had far better entertainment at the pools and evening entertainment. Also, this time of year and being an adults only where there is the chance of older people, it would have been nice to have a blanket in the room.

Absolutely amazing time! Spent an entire week at this resort for the first time. we usually stay at Riu Palace but this time wanted to try an all adults resort. Great service was had by everyone! There was nothing we didn’t like (except one night of a horrendous beeping outside of our room but the management was more than happy to try and accommodate our needs…thank you Carla!). Particular shout outs to Lucio, the bartender by Pepe’s, Fernando the bartender by the stage, the waiter at Krystal that started with an A (and I’m sad I can not remember), Caesar in hotel management that came by and made sure every was going ok, and Israel at the Mexican restaurant. There were so many others to mention but honestly I can’t remember everyone’s names. We are looking forward to returning in May (hopefully!). Thank you Riu!

We had another great stay at an RIU property. The front desk was great at addressing any questions or problems we had. The rooms were clean and well maintained by their awesome house keeping service. The main restaurant had great options for breakfast. The Guacamole restaurant had awesome steak and sea food, and the Krystal restaurant was also one of our favorites. Javiar was our favorite poolside drink master, and always kept our glasses topped off. We faced the sister resort, and they really know how to party next door, it was a little loud sometimes, but hey it's Mexico, bring one of those white noise devices (we used our phone), and it totally was not a big deal. Room service options could be a little better in my opinion, but still not bad in case you miss a meal or got a case of the late night munchies. The resort is smaller then the RIU next door, but it did not feel over crowded, and we still had plenty of pool space and available chairs. We met a lot of great people while on our stay. Thank you to all the staff at the RIU Palace Baja for our awesome (kid free) vacation.
