Hotel Riu Palace Palmeras

Jan Åberg

This is probably the best all-inclusive hotel I've ever stayed at. Of course, being a five-star hotel, you might expect a high standard, but it truly exceeded all expectations. The food was absolutely amazing, with a wide variety of options that always tasted fresh and delicious. The service was outstanding; the staff was incredibly friendly and always maintained an exceptional level of professionalism. Every member of the team contributed to making our stay memorable, and it felt like no request was too much. The cleanliness and overall appearance of the hotel were immaculate, which added to the overall luxurious experience. To top it all off, we had perfect weather throughout the entire winter break week, with sunny skies and temperatures around 23°C, which made our stay even more enjoyable. One of the key factors for us when choosing this hotel was the availability of a gym, which we were quite excited about. However, while the gym looked great in the photos, it didn't quite meet our expectations in person. It could easily be improved with additional free weights ranging from 2 to 30 kilograms. That being said, this was a minor setback in an otherwise perfect stay. Overall, we would still rate this hotel a solid five stars, as it provided an incredible experience that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a high-quality, all-inclusive getaway.

Friendly staff. Food is nice, huge selection. Great value. All inclusive, mini bar is full of drinks as well. Hotel is pretty much full of seniors.

This hotel is THE BEST, the buffet is ALWAYS amazing, variety is spectacular, don’t bother with the Krystal restaurant, which is nice, but the all inclusive food is fabulous. Drinks good quality, staff are very friendly, helpful and work very hard. Rooms are clean, modern. The only thing I would request is more ENGLISH channels. Will stay here again at a heart beat 😍

Genuinely one, if not the best smaller all inclusive hotels I've been to. Quite literally nothing to fault about it at all. The hotel has basically everything you could need either in it or a 30 second walk away. There is one all inclusive buffet which has a great variety of really delicious food, for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Never had a bad meal from there. a nice atmosphere in there as well with an outside and outdoor eating area. There is also the al carte restaurant which was an interesting experience. It wasn't our cup of tea but of course that's purely down to us, however what was strange is that we was advised to book it well early as its often busy so they said. However upon going down there for the night we were surprised at how strangely empty it was with only two tables taken. The staff in there were nice however would spend the whole service in silence and with the lack of music in there it was very awkward. A really nice bar is positioned between the buffet and reception area also with an outside seating area as well as an indoor part. Live music was played there at times. There is also an area next to the bar where some food like burgers and hot dogs are able to be taken free of charge after 10pm in case you arrive at the hotel late or if you fancy a late night snack which is a great touch. Room was perfect as well with a great view around the area genuinely incredible. Had everything we needed with a fridge to that is re stocked for free which is an incredible touch. a lovely bathroom to and a perfect bed. Two pools of decent size and many sunbeds are also part of the hotel as well a small kids pool. Its especially good how one of the pool has a specific rule of no ball games and only swimming to allow for s more relaxed experience There is also a pool bar which has snacks all day. Down at the bottom of the hotel is where the entertainment takes place with some incredible and highly entertaining shows occurring. You can also order drinks at ease down there with bar tenders frequently around. The location is pretty much perfect, a 5 minute walk to the beach if that and surrounded by many other really nice hotels and some very convenient shops next door. There is a really nice area of shops and bars just a stones throw away next to the beach. A hard rock café is also in the close area. The beach is huge and mainly sandy. Be very careful as part of it is a nude beach which was a surprise for sure. The staff were superb as well all round and very kind, especially the legend Javier on reception. While there is no spa there is a small gym which more than does the job. We were also treated by the offer which goes out to all guests of going to the riu party which is a themed disco party night at a near by riu hotel. It was absolutely class brilliant acts and great music for every age, with drinks to and entirely free which is incredible.

I rate this place only 1star because the food for the all-inclusive hotel is very poor quality and not eatable also I celebrated my birthday with no birthday cake offered by the restaurant only cheap cava for €3.60 from the local shop! Nobody cares about the customers and makes their stay more comfortable and enjoyable. That was enough to decide never to come back to that hotel again!!! The restaurant smelled awful because the extraction system did not work. Grilled meats are so dry like grilled cartons or overcooked. The pastry section only defrosted desserts or musses extremely low quality made from the powder mix. Hot drinks are very bad quality. Cocktails are just sugar syrup and crushed ice. I found human hair on the pastry. I recommend this hotel only for a room without any food.
