    Hassle to go to wedding

    Went here for a wedding. Be advised if not staying it is $150 per person to go to the wedding. That was $110 more that when I had first inquired. We knew we had to pay, but didn't want our kids in the non stop party environment. So we chose to stay elsewhere. I did not expect what came next though.... Eliva was the rudest hotel person that I have ever dealt with. She lied to me telling me that she told the groom there was an additional $4,000 deposit that had to be paid in CASH when checking in for the wedding. My husband and I laughed out loud and said nobody has that much cash on them. She pointed to an ATM and said take it out. We asked to pay with a CC since it was supposed to be a deposit. She said no and walked away. Another employee came up to our family and asked how they could help, when I explained that we did not have $4,000 cash on us, she said how about $200. So we were able to put the deposit of $200 down. Which took us 20 minutes to get back at the end of the night. Eliva came up and told us we had to leave by 11pm and reminded us to not be late. I followed up with the groom and was advised no conversation ever occurred and he had no idea who she was. Also note-Uber is not allowed to pick up on site. You have to walk about 5-6 minutes to get out of gate. Food and drinks were plentiful and the property is ok. Nothing fabulous about the food, cooked for crowds. Beautiful venue and wedding staff were great.

    Wonderful stay

    This was our second trip to RIU Palace Cabo San Lucas and what can I say except it was once again a great holiday. We had a group of 16 that went to celebrate a birthday. This time of year was amazing, it was a little cool at night and first thing in the morning but way better than all the snow in Ontario. We were able to see whales and stingrays jumping about right at the beach at the resort. The staff are always very attentive and had multiple interactions with department managers asking that everything was satisfactory. The beach right at the resort is not swimable but the pools are plentiful and very nice. Definitely take a day to go into town and explore, it is safe and beautiful. Our room was 3137 had a wonderful view and even though you could slightly hear the evening show it was over early and did not disrupt our sleep at all. Go and enjoy this beautiful resort and people.

    Superb Cabo vacation on gorgeous resort layout.

    Beautiful resort, very clean and friendly staff. Would have liked one queen mattress instead of 2 twins pushed together.
