Need Improvement in Some Areas & Superb in Others
Service staff in all areas were superb. Food was good with lots of variety in the African Restaurant. Other specialty restaurants could have more menu options and more variety that differ from food in the African Restaurant. My room had a foul musty odor. One day when I returned to the room, there was a black cat in my room. Cats roamed around the property and cat poop was gound on the stairs and not cleaned up.

Great location, and only a very short taxi drive from the airport. Hotel staff were amazing, and provided a great service. Heard in previous reviews that the food was limited, but there was an abundance of fresh fish/meat, and everything to go with it. Couldn’t have had a better choice. Just a great place to switch off and relax. 10/10

Having stayed in two hotels in Boa Vista, I must say that RIU Palace is amazing and it's totally worth every $. It's 1000 better than some other hotels in Boa Vista that we've seen. Sparkling clean, amazing dining options, great cocktails, nice rooms - everything was perfect.
