Just a quick message from a Canadian looking for a change from cruising and get opinions on the resort of choice in Punta Cana. We are looking at the Riu Palace at this point in time. Any comments would be appreciated. Also, does anyone know of a contact from a Police agency in the area for information.

Thanks for any help.

Riu is a spanish chain with many hotels throught the island, all of them with the all-inclusive system. The Palace is their top-of the line in Punta Cana. Very nice and highly recommended. Because the hotel is located within the Riu complex in Punta Cana you can use the facilities and restaurants of other Riu hotels in the area.

I recently toured the RIU Palace hotel in Punta Cana and can only highly recommend it. The RIU is highly respected and part of the top-of-the-line hotel chains in the Dominican Republic.

The Barcelo family of hotels is also similar in terms of quality with food, rooms etc..
