Palace by name, palace by nature. this Riu hotel certainly lives up to its regal title. What's more, it's set right on the edge of Palm beach and looks out across the caribbean sea. The white-domed Riu Palace is a seriously elegant hotel. The wood-panelled piano bar is reminiscent of a private gentlemen's club while the neutral bedrooms are the epitome of good taste. They're spacious too, and the Junior suites come with lounge areas. On the food front, all inclusive buffets come courtesy of the chandelier-adorned main restaurant. For a taste of the Far East head to the minimalist Japanese eatery, Sayuri. Or make a reservation at Picasso-esque Krystal restaurant to try fusion-cuisine.
