“Riu Palace Tropical Bay wins on location with direct access to Bloody Bay Beach, setting the stage for an all-inclusive experience geared towards families and couples. The Victorian-style architecture is noteworthy, though some facilities show signs of wear. In my opinion, the entertainment and diverse dining options-from Japanese to Italian-are solid, but quality can be inconsistent.”
