    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    The swanky new Riu Palace Boavista has a front-row seat to a stunning stretch of chalk-white sand. And it comes with three trendy pools.

    This place is pulled up on a stretch of sun-bleached white sand, right next to its sandcastle-like sister hotel, Riu Karamboa. The island’s capital, Sal Rei, is only a 10-minute cab ride away, too.

    The hotel opened its doors in winter 2018, and the stylish interiors live up to their name – they’re nothing less than palatial. You can eat and drink like a king, too, with a choice of four around-the-world eateries and six watering holes.

    Hotel Certainly Not 5 Star & Poor Management
    15 Jan , 2020 444lynnc, 499523
    We arrived 3rd January 2020 a day late due to a Sandstorm..our guy on reception was not the best at checking us in made numerous mistakes..Our room 4708 with a pool lovely South facing apart from toilet not being secured to the floor..When we got the room reception rang if you want anything just ring.. Optics in the room and you are left with 2 beers and 2 tonics and other sodas which only got replaced every second day.. so we would spend the afternoon by the pool and have a beer and a gin and tonic but when we rang to say could we have 2 more beers and tonics for the day after it was made out to be a problem.. we caught the guy that delivered the beer tonics and asked him could he replace the items but was not the most social..made out its all inclusive hotel use the bars.. What is the point in having a pool to chill by if you have to keep leaving to go the bar not impressed. Food was very nice in the restaurants very clean but the red and white wine I have to say is horrible and the beer in the bars was not nice either..the beer in the mini bar is different and okay. The only time we had a decent wine was when we went to the themed restaurant. Also the entertainment was not good the dancers were fine but the singers were awful.We would leave our room about 10 in the morning but they were only ever cleaned late after dinner. On our leaving day we had asked about keeping a room on for an hour but it was a big noooo we just thought due to the fact we had missed nearly 2 days and ours rooms were never cleaned early this would of been okay. Sad to say me and my husband will not be returning.

    I the main we had a very enjoyable holiday. Just a couple of things we wasn’t to happy about, the first was we had a bad smell coming from our bathroom we stayed in room 2112. We did report this to reception and they promptly sent a maintenance guy who did fix the problem but within a day the smell was back. The other thing was not really a problem it’s more of a suggestion and that is the evening entertainment was repeated twice in a week. We stayed at this hotel last year around the same time and we had the same shows then, maybe they need to come up with a few new shows, having said that the animation team seem to work extremely hard keeping the guests happy.
    Lovely hotel

    This hotel is fantastic. All the staff are wonderful. The animation team are out of this world. The shows are the best we have seen (in many many hotels) particularly tonight's music/comedy show . Dennis, Charlie and Kenny and all the other members you are wonderful entertainers
    Perfect relaxing vacation

    We went here over Christmas to get away and just relax instead of stressing the whole family (grown ups only). Perfect location and amazing weather! Amazing hotel (love the rooms and especially the shower), lovely and nice staff, really nice food (especially the buffet sections, really good and my favourite) and amazing environment. Possible to be active with different classes and gym or just relax in the sun beds by the pool or directly on the beach. Also recommend taking a massage, I had the best one this far in life. Stayed one week, would have liked it to be two weeks. We will definitely return!
