Beautiful location, liked the rooms, food was slightly more limited than some resorts but we went off alot and ate food at all the local places, which was great (so many options walking distance and we traveled with young kids), casino was off to the side inside the resort so wasn't overpowering ...

Hotel Riu Palace Antillas - Adults Only - All Inclusive
For an all inclusive resort it was good. A little trouble w the WiFi and the room key at times. Overall it was a good stay. The room was clean. If I was doing all inclusive again I would recommend it.
