    My stay at the Hotel Riu Palace Paradise Island

    The staff was nice and food was excellent. The beach was nice also. The only thing I didn't like was the location. There was'nt a convient shopping area near by. Yes there were some stores after a mile of walking, but nothing like was expecting.

    Excellent Hotel with Great Restuurants

    The hotel staff was friendly. The food and restaurants were good. The only issues were a lack of transportation and no ATM machine. Plan to have your own transportation so you can get out for gifts and cash.

    Great all inclusive, but not sure we got the correct room type

    I’m not sure we got the room we reserved. We got an ocean view junior suite. It was the same as the other rooms that were on that floor that we saw when they were being cleaned. It did not look like the pictures I saw online. We were in room 917.

    Not for Everyone.

    Looks much better in pictures. Most of the staff is amazing and friendly. Shoutouts to Anthony at the pool bar, always had a smile and unfortunately, I can't remember his name, he was the host at the Atlantic, super friendly, fun older gentleman. They both made our trip a little better. The food in the buffet was very good and had lots of different options that changed daily. We only ate at two of the restaurants, the Bahamas and Kulinarium both were decent. If you want a sit down, dinner served, its a good option, but honestly the food in the buffet was just as good. The "needs improvement category". They are constantly cleaning the main reception area, however, the floors to the rooms, hallways and elevators weren't touched the entire week we were there. We saw the same stirrer on the floor in the same spot the entire time we were there. It was right outside the elevator so no way to miss it if it was being cleaned daily. The floors to the rooms felt like the projects of NYC. Just dingy and dirty, in need of maintenance, paint and cleaning. The music at the pool was torture. If you're into hip hop with loud groups of girls screaming, this is the place for you. The DJ didnt seem to read the crowd. It was a pretty diverse crowd (although I think for most, this is a one and done type place) . We spoke to at least three different couples at the beach who said they came to the beach to avoid the pool scene. If the DJ is in to hip hop, thats fine, but his job is to entertain the crowd, not his peers.
