Delicious Buffets

The variety and freshness of the food at the buffet restaurant truly enhanced our dining experience. Every meal was a good adventure with multiple options, including made-to-order omelets and an array of local seafood that tasted impeccably fresh. Each themed night brought something new, keeping our taste buds eager for dinner each evening.

Well-Equipped Rooms

Our room was equipped with a kettle and a selection of tea and coffee, making mornings good. The ambient lighting created a cozy atmosphere, and the balcony offered a private space to unwind with a book while enjoying the sun in the midday heat.

Relaxing Pool Area

The pool area was beautifully maintained, with crystal-clear waters inviting us to take a dip any time of the day. It was the perfect retreat for relaxation, surrounded by lush palm trees, and we loved that we could order drinks poolside without any hassle.

The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives in an overall enjoyable experience. The rooms are clean and spacious, perfect for a family stay, and the pool area is lovely with plenty of sunbeds. However, the dining experience, particularly the buffet, left much to be desired with repetitive options and overcooked dishes. Additionally, service in the buffet area could be improved, as it led to frustrations during peak meal times.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, as it's a modern and clean place with friendly staff who are always eager to assist. The dining options were varied and the food quality was great, but I did find it a bit repetitive after a while. Although the nearby beach was accessible, the path involved some steep steps which could be challenging. The entertainment in the evenings was not really geared towards younger guests, which I found a little disappointing.

My recent stay at Hotel Riu Palace Palmeras was quite enjoyable overall. The hotel had a peaceful atmosphere, with stunning palm trees creating a relaxing vibe. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the dining options were excellent, particularly the fresh seafood. However, I did notice some guests reserving sunbeds without using them, which was a bit annoying. Additionally, I would have appreciated a better management of smoking around the pool area as a non-smoker.
