Ok so my wife and i booked a trip for our family on the spur of the moment to this resort for the 31st of July, and are super excited to go! And thank God your review was what i chose to watch to learn more about the resort, cause at 59 seconds in i realized we booked our flight to SJO!!!! So united came through for us in a big way and got us now flying into Lir. Can't thank you enough for the tips but mostly for the airport tip, you are an angle.
Please come back and let me know about your experience. Several people have commented on this video that they had a terrible experience. I am so surprised because we had such a good time.
Hey there, great video. I’m still deciding on which hotel to stay at between the 2. solo trip and never I’ve stayed at an all inclusive, question, do they offer take away containers for food if I don’t want to eat indoors at the restaurant? Thanks in advance
We go in a few weeks. What are the activities for young adults? We are going for a senior trip. Anything special to bring? I know there was a white out night. Anything else?
Is there a room/place you can book your excursions there? And if so should u call to book b4 arrival or can u wait until arrival to book at activities away from resort?
I had an eight day stay. I stayed one night, and left!! It’s DISGUSTING THERE!! Mildew and raw sewage when you flush the toilet! Two spiders in my room! When I left, I left w the mildew smell in my clothes! The food was terrible!!!
So I watched her video and many others and decided I would go. I got back last week and it is obvious this lady os getting something out of this review. That place is terrible!! Food was horrible. Rooms are in bad shape. Management doesn't help with anything. We had two rooms with Ocean view one was totally blocked by a Palm. That same room had no hot water. They never came to fix it. Complained every day. DON'T listen to this lady. Stay away from this place. The only good thing about it was their view.
I’m going there next week, and I’m so excited! Are the pools normally really full and packed, or is it fairly empty? Great review btw!
Thanks! It really just depends on how many people are there and how the beach looks.
Thank you for the info! Do you think that during this time of year the hotel would be fairly busy?

Now that's a reason to use a travel agent: Book the right airport.
I am going to the Riu Palace Costa Rica next month and this video made me very happy😊

No. You need to eat at the restaurant
Do you have any information on transfer services? Or recommendations?
We go in a few weeks. What are the activities for young adults? We are going for a senior trip. Anything special to bring? I know there was a white out night. Anything else?
Was the water park included in the stay ?
Yes
Angie did you happen to notice any “meeting rooms” or areas where a group of 15 could meet for retreat purposes a few hours every day?
I didn't look for it.
It looks like you had to hike everywhere. Were people wearing heels to dinner? Thinking of taking mine out of my bag now 😳
I didn't think it was a hike. It was pretty flat.
Is their a beach just for the people that booked the resort? Or is it just a public beach.
All beaches in Costa Rica are public.
@TripswithAngie ok
Is there a room/place you can book your excursions there? And if so should u call to book b4 arrival or can u wait until arrival to book at activities away from resort?
Yes. They have an excursions desk at the resort plus people on the beach offering them.
Hi. So if you had to choose
Riu palace or planet Hollywood?
Planet Hollywood for the better rooms.
I don’t know this place looks boring
For the pros and cons of the resort, please visit:allinclusivevacations.substack.com/p/riu-palace-costa-rica-resort-tour
I have a feeling theres a lot of pee in that pool 😂
I feel that way about a lot of swim up bars!
This lady had to be getting paid for this review! There’s no way it’s this empty while filming! So this was probably extremely early
Didn't get paid.
@@TripswithAngieok, but I guess it’s all about preference and perspective This place is disgusting
@@noodles1102 feel free to post your video review.
@@TripswithAngie I am.
I’m here now,
My families very disappointed this hotel.
So dirty and stinky smell..
Never again 😢
The resort was spotless when I was there last week. Are you at the Palace or the Guanacaste?
Wow. Which resort did you stay in? Do you have pics?
I had an eight day stay. I stayed one night, and left!! It’s DISGUSTING THERE!! Mildew and raw sewage when you flush the toilet! Two spiders in my room! When I left, I left w the mildew smell in my clothes! The food was terrible!!!
I stayed one night and I paid for eight days!

Can you link to your video so others can see the room conditions? Thanks!
@@TripswithAngie I have a few pictures. I didn't take video.
It's a dump
What resorts do you consider not a dump?
This is not luxury travel at all
Didn't say it was.
