This hotel makes for a great getaway! For the money, this place is fantastic! Paticularly if you enjoy trying the various daquiris and drinks by the pool all day. The staff is so helpful and so nice. The pool and beach are beautiful. The lobby is beautiful. The food was good. Plenty of variety. Is it 5-star like a Ruth... more

Ok, I'm somewhat picky, but this is a real review. Not what you want to hear, but what we truthfully experienced. Excellent , very efficient service. European/Spanish corporation and efficiency is top notch. Clean, well kept rooms. We left little gifts for the maids each day including makeup kits, toys for children in addition to cash tip. That might have... more

ROOMS – the ocean views are absolutely gorgeous. We were in room 428 and had fantastic view of the water and the pool. Love that the soft drinks and purified water in the mini-bar are included in the all-inclusive and you can request as many as you want. They replenish the mini-frig every other day. They have a nice drying... more

We arrived and the weather wasn't great and the next morning it was raining so i pretty unhappy but by 11am it was gorgeous sunshine and it basically only really rained at night after that. There was a constant breeze so the heat was more bearable. The hotel is great and the entrance... more

My wife and I just spent 7 nights at the Palace. Check in went smooth, were arrived around 12:00 and were checked into our room with ease. The AC in the room is so so. It blows cool, but does not remove the humidity. We woke up the first morning on hard beds and also WET. We went to bed... more
