Where Riu Palace Macao sits and where we stop
Riu Palace Macao sits in the Macao RIU cluster, right next to Riu Republica, which is the pairing that causes most of the confusion on this route — the two properties are close enough that a driver working from a partial name can pull up at the wrong reception. We take the exact property name from the booking and confirm it in writing, so the car heads for the Palace lobby specifically rather than the standard Riu next door. The run from PUJ is 30 to 40 minutes: highway most of the way, then the final stretch leaves the main road onto the dedicated Macao access road that serves this cluster. The guard at the cluster's security post checks the guest name and property against our booking sheet before letting the vehicle continue to the internal lobby roads. Send your flight details early since this is one of the longer runs from the airport.
