Riu Palace, Riviera Maya,
Playa del Carman, Mexico
Playa Del Carmen - A
dazzling resort of breathtaking originality! Riu Palace
Mexico abounds with European flourishes, such as hand
painted murals, floral ceilings rimmed in gold, and a tiny
Spanish chapel. Splashing fountains, statues, gazebos and
wrought iron benches rest in a romantic courtyard beneath
the shade of towering palms, while sprays of bougainvillea
adorn slanted sun-shelters by two magnificent pools. La
Bodega, Don Julian, El Patio and La Traviata restaurants
offer specialty a la carte dishes and spectacular buffets. A
lavish nightclub in whimsical design hosts nightly
entertainment, and a pristine white beach along the
mesmerizing turquoise sea promises to delight the senses and
soothe the soul. Deluxe and spacious guestrooms (mostly
split-level) are beautifully decorated in rich wood and
granite rose tile, each offering a sitting area with
mini-fridge and bar. Ideal for couples and Honeymooners. 434
air-conditioned rooms.
