Riu Palace Resort vs. Villa Del Arco?

[lisasalinas]

My Fiance and I are having a hard time deciding on where to stay. We have the church and reception (in Medano Beach)booked. Essentially since it's our wedding, we would like to stay somewhere nice, but don't want to have to drive 20-30min to get to downtown and we realize that most of the "nicer" or AI hotels would be about a 20-30min. drive. Any recommendations? We're considering RIU Palace or Villa del Arco any suggestions? We will need to book soon since our wedding is this Nov. and most of our guests keep asking where we're staying and they would like to book soon...yikes! Any feedback would be great!

Check out villa la estancia. It's next to villa del arco but a bit more upscale. It's all privately owned, so if you book on vrbo.com you can find some great rates. We absolutely love it there and are having all our guests stay there for our wedding! It's close enough to town to walk along the beach, yet far enough away to be rather private.

Villa del Arco definitely!!! Very close to downtown and it's a lovely resort.
