Sep 05, 2026A ceiling collapsed in the lobby during our stay, and staff didn't care
A ceiling collapsed in the lobby during our stay, and staff didn't care "I stayed at the Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas from August 30 to September 5, and checked out a day early because I didn't feel safe staying. On Thursday, September 3, a section of the lobby ceiling collapsed about 6 feet from where I was sitting. Chunks of ceiling and debris came down right next to the seating area where guests were relaxing. I have photos of the hole in the ceiling and the rubble on the floor. And it wasn't just one spot. A second, larger section of ceiling had come down in the lobby bar area, leaving a pile of rubble and exposed structure right next to the bar tables and chairs. When I raised it with staff, they dismissed it and said this happens because of rain. Rain is not an excuse for a ceiling falling on guests. When I asked about a refund after cutting my stay short, they refused. A resort at this price should be maintaining its buildings and taking guest safety seriously. A ceiling coming down in a crowded public area could have seriously hurt someone, and the shrug I got from staff was worse than the damage itself. Think twice before booking here."

Sep 04, 2026Wish the Lobby Bar Was Air Conditioned
The resort is beautiful however the Lobby Bar is an “Open-Air” bar which means no air conditioning. Also, the specialty restaurants are air conditioned but not very cool. The staff are amazing - friendly, helpful, etc. Have been to this resort in years past and it seems like the food has definitely gotten better.

Romantic Birthday Getaway
It was an amazing trip!! We greatly enjoyed the whole experience! Plus, the view of the famous Cabo arch 24/7 was a definite plus! Although, the trip didn’t immediately start on the right foot: our original hotel Riu Santa Fe had a broken air conditioning system when we arrived, which was fixed later that night. But we were upgraded to Riu Palace two days later at no charge, where the direct access to the ocean, the view of the arch and overall service and ambiance (especially the food: who can say no to the steaks and lobsters combo? :) made our vacation so much more enjoyable! Plus, the shore activities coordinator José Amstar was just EXCELLENT in organizing our boat trip to the Lovers Beach! So, thank you for the memories, Riu Cabo Palace! 🙏🏻❤️ We’ll definitely be back!
