Hotel Riu Palace Aruba

The Hotel Riu Palace Aruba: remember that dream about a grand hotel on a pristine white beach in the Caribbean? This is what you were dreaming of... A five-star holiday extravaganza with white domes, split level swimming pools, a swim up bar, five outstanding restaurants and a casino. It is located on Palm Beach, one of Aruba’s premier beaches and is just four kilometres from the lively resort of Oranjestad and a mere 300 metres from the nearest shopping centre.

Inside, the Riu Palace will enchant you from the start. From the decorative marble-floored reception area to the exquisite Japanese wall panels in the Sayuri Restaurant, no expense has been spared. The bedrooms are sumptuous and elegant, with dark wooden furniture and exotic furnishings; all the rooms have satellite TV, air conditioning and minibars and the standard rooms have Juliette-style balconies. Upgrades with a sea view and larger balcony are available. All inclusive activities to tempt you: sauna, whirlpool, aqua aerobics, beach volleyball, daily entertainment programme and free entry into the casino. And if you’d rather not gamble, chill out in the clubby atmosphere of the wood-panelled Piano Bar or make friends in the Sports Bar.
