Nice hotel
Pros: It looks wonderful, just like in the photos. My room even had a beautiful, lateral view of the sea, even though I didn't book a sea view room. There is always a restaurant open, so you can eat whenever you want. The food is good and varied, with the exception of fruits which are rather tasteless. With all inclusive all foods and drinks were free in all the restaurants. The hotel had a big private beach with wonderful sand and 3 swimming pools. The sea was too cold and the weaves were too strong to swim in it. The pools were shallow and warm, but you couldn't always swim as there were many children playing in them. There are plenty of free lounging chairs on the beach and by the pools. The employees were very relaxed, they never bothered me, never harassed me to buy anything and when I needed something they helped me. There were no mosquitos at all, but there were flies, annoying when you wang to eat outside.
Cons: There was often loud music until late at night. Rooms are not soudproofed, so early in the morning there was a lot of noise in the hotel because of the other guests. Allthough there were 22°C outside, in the room at night it was very cold.

Riu Palace - a nice experience.
Pros: It was our first stay at a Riu Hotel. We were positively surprised. The hotel is very well run. All staff is friendly / helpful. The meals are good - a lot of choice and the buffet is permanently refilled and cleaned. The area is big and also well maintained. Long sandy beach, with a lot of shade under the palm trees. Pools are busy ... but not overcrowded. You do not need to fight for a chair - there are enough.
Cons: Avoid rooms on the ground floor. View from 1. / 2. / or 3. floor is much better.

Almost perfect for an all inclusive.
Pros: What to say. It’s a 5 star hotel, great room, comfortable bed. Spacious, nice bathroom. The all inclusive option have excellent variety of breakfast, lunch and dinner. And extra restaurants for even more quality. Good options of swimming pools, and access to an amazing beach should the wind allow it.
Cons: For the price paid, I expect better Spa facilities. The jacuzzi cold always, the Turkish bath is poor. The night activities are rather lame, so early to bed you go. Another poor is element, with the airport 2km away I would expect a shuttle running for free to the hotel and back, to not allow the taxis to rip off customers. 10€ for a 3 min ride is stealing money.

Spain 🇪🇸
Pros: El desayuno era muy variado y la ubicación era buena , a pie de playa y a 10 minutos de Sal Reí ( la única opción real de salir del hotel)
Cons: No nos dieron albornoz a pesar de pedirlos durante dos días. Tampoco pudimos reservar en ninguno de los restaurantes durante toda la estancia (en ninguno de los turnos.) Ni en el spa.

Parfait séjour all inclusive dans un hôtel de très bon confort, personnel aux petits soins.
Pros: Buffet exceptionnel, produits en abondance, variés et très frais.
Cons: Peu de chose à visiter sur l'île de Boa Vista. On en a vite fait le tour.
