With lofty towers and walls as white as the pearly sand that this resort is built atop, this citadel of amenities and luxuries stands tall and regal amongst the tropical seaside paradise of Cancun. Get your crowns on and strap in for a royal experience. These adults-only hotel grounds offer the perfect backdrop for a romantic shoreline wedding ceremony followed by an intimate honeymoon with fathoms of perks to bask within.

Candlelit open-air dining options are available to new honeymooners, with cuisine options ranging from fusion, Italian, Mexican, and Japanese, the perfect way to have your first dinner together as a knot-tied unit. After dinner, a walk to either the newly built Lounge 24 or Capuchino offers treats, ice creams, and pastries for sand-strewn strolls by midnight. Wedding guests have nothing to worry about it either – there are a plethora of activities and amenities available for guests of all sorts.

Any of the three resort pools offer tranquil oases for soaking up the Caribbean beauty. For the more adventurous couples and wedding guests, Riu Palace Las Americas provides plenty of opportunities for firsthand aquatic fun, such as scuba diving, catamaran sailing, or kayaking.

If the bountiful premises of the resort aren’t enough for any would-be thrillseeker, a bunch of excursions is offered, such as getaways to Chichen Itzá’s Kukulkán Pyramids. These ancient Mesoamerican monuments are over ten centuries old and must be included in any traveler’s “must-see” list. Marrying plentiful options with stunning views, this resort certainly lives up to its title of ‘palace.’
