About Riu Palace Baja California - Adults Only - All Inclusive

The easiest way to understand an all-inclusive stay at Riu Palace Baja California is to follow a day. Mornings can begin with breakfast at the restaurant, or with breakfast brought to your room if you'd rather ease in. The coffee shop handles the in-between hours, and the snack bar is there when lunch should be quick. Drinks flow from the main bar and the pool bar, with wine and champagne on offer as well. Themed dinner nights break up the routine, and 24-hour room service covers the moments when you want to stay in.

Daylight hours revolve around the water. The resort has a swimming pool and an outdoor pool, with sun loungers or beach chairs and sun umbrellas set out for lazy stretches, and the beachfront is right there. When you want shade and quiet, the terrace and garden offer a change of pace, and the shared lounge and TV area is a place to regroup. Guests who prefer to move can use the tennis court, the fitness center, where classes and aerobics fill the schedule, or sign up for horse riding. Diving and water sport facilities on site give the sea its own chapter.

Late afternoon belongs to the spa and wellness center, with massages, a steam room and beauty services to choose from, plus a barber and beauty shop for a pre-dinner refresh. After dark, an entertainment team runs the evening program, with live music and performances, and live sport broadcasts for fans. The nightclub with a DJ keeps the party going for those who aren't ready to call it a night.

Everyday logistics are covered as well. Someone is always on hand at the front desk, WiFi and parking cost nothing extra, and the tour desk and car hire make it easy to plan time away from the resort. An ATM is on site, laundry is available, and a business center and meeting and banquet facilities serve those with work to do. Guests who use a wheelchair will find the resort accessible, and security operates around the clock. Rooms need to be vacated by noon on departure day, and guests should bring photo ID and a credit card for arrival.
