Hotel Riu Madeira - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Riu Madeira Palace in October. The staff was lovely and so efficient. The property is gorgeous and I can’t think of one thing we wished for. The food was great. As a Celiac the buffet was clearly labeled and I felt confident making choices and ate a variety without getting sick. The self serve coffee and beverages made morning sunrises a favorite. The views are spectacular and the are made for lovely walks. We would go back in a heartbeat."
