My wife and I went to this hotel with my parents as their joint 60th birthday celebration. You get exactly what you expect, in fact everything you expect from a Riu hotel. The village of Olhos D'Agua is lovel and try to go to the Casablanca bar, cracking cocktails! More

My husband and myself stayed at this hotel for a fourth time from 29th Dec until 7th Jan 2012. Again we were not disappointed! In our opinion there is no fault to this hotel - if you are looking for a relaxing holiday with peaceful settings then it is fantastic. The steps to the beach will be very difficult if... More

A very well run hotel. Very professional and friendly staff. The food is very good and so are the rooms. My biggest complaint.... I can not think of one at all. More

There really isn't much I can find fault with at the Riu Palace Algarve. Upon arrival, both my partner and I were given the impression that this was an establishment where the staff all cared, from the porters to the manager. All facilities were fully explained upon arrival, we were made to feel welcome with a glass of champagne and... More

Excellent hotel with great facilities, indoor and outdoor pool, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi. The staff are fantastic and make you feel special. Food is fantastic, from buffet, show cooking and table service, you can try all three on the same night if you're that hungary. Rooms are of a very good standard as you would expect. We spent four night... More
