The Rui Palace staff all provide a first class service and are very friendly. Our arrival was in the evening and we found the beds to be a little on the hard side, after speaking to reception soft toppers had been put on the beds in no time.

Just returned from a weeks relaxing stay at the Riu Palace Algarve. Lovely clean room cleaned efficiently each day. Lovely food at Breakfast and Dinner. We didnt use the pool area as the long beach reached by approx 150 wooden steps was great once we got past the sun beds. Olhos D'agua was a nice little village with quite a... more
