Ria Park Hotel & Spa

Le restaurant est impeccable et le service est superbe. Le seul point négatif est l'absence de plage à proximité. Un service de navette est disponible jusqu'à 19h pour vous emmener à la plage (à 5 minutes en voiture), mais vous devez appeler l'hôtel pour qu'ils viennent vous chercher. Sinon, il faut compter 15 minutes de marche ou utiliser Uber. De plus, une fois arrivés à la plage supposée appartenir à l'hôtel, nous n'avons trouvé aucun espace privé. Cela a été une grande déception. Malgré cela, tout le reste est génial.

Been wanting to write a review,...we came back 2 weeks ago. I don't usually write reviews but you deserve this. We had the most wonderful holiday, thank you Ria Park. Beautiful, classy hotel, the staff were really lovely, friendly, helpful, and treated us so well. The pool is gorgeous and there is always space around the garden area for sunbathing, we had our 4 beds every day. Beach not far and also really lovely. The food is really nice, especially the breakfasts, and the rooms were superb. We didn't know what to expect as it is set in a quiet (but extremely picturesque ) location, and we have 2 teenage daughters,...but we found some lovely places to go in the evenings and had a truly excellent holiday. Really sad to be back in London ! Thank you again Ria Park, we WILL be coming back !!!

Checked in to ria park as a last minute booking following a nightmare end of our holiday (in a local apartment) where my youngest son and I were unable to go home as planned with the rest of our family. We had stayed a night before we arrived at Ria park in another local 5 star hotel and had a terrible experience there. From the moment we walked in to the ria park we were made to feel so safe and welcome. The room we were given was perfect, we ordered room service and it was absolutely fantastic. The hotel is so clean. We received a lovely welcome tray with some treats for my son and fresh fruit and waters. The air con was perfect, great tea and coffee facilities. Maid service so efficient. We didn’t have a chance to use the pool but was clean and lovely, lots of loungers available. We were able to get a late check out which I was extremely grateful for after a difficult week and an evening flight. Breakfast was brilliant, lots of offer and we ate lunch at the pool bar. Brilliant selection, I was particularly impressed as I was able to get a vegetarian soja bolognaise. It’s in a great location for lovely restaurants and days out. I’m so pleased we stumbled across this hotel and will be booking to stay here next year. A special mention to Marta on reception. The was just the most kind and lovely person. So helpful. Thank you!

Proper hotel. Thought it a bit corporate at first but the staff are absolutely lovely and bend over backwards to help. It's worth noting that I've never been in an hotel that was so beautifully clean ALL THE TIME. Rooms a good size and Aircon excellent. Food excellent compared to others in the area - Val de lobo (slightly faint praise because all the restaurants we tried were mostly overpriced and gouged tourists) very good breakfast buffet that would be enhanced by proper coffee ( a machine with bloody powdered milk is all there is) and an egg station - not quite 5 star and it ain't cheap but wonderful for families. Our 10 year old daughter made friends instantly. Highly recommended.

A beautiful hotel in modern Portuguese style (floor tiles and dark wood mixed with delightful modern blue and silver touches). The rooms and balconies are spacious, beds so comfortable. Bathrooms spacious and immaculate. The maid service is exceptional. Very pleasant reception staff. Useful beach shuttle. Stunning lounge and good bar. Large lovely pool surrounded by a very pretty garden where the swifts have a fine time every summers evening bringing a magical touch.. The restaurant was exceptional. To be honest we ate at various locations grabbing Ubers (as you have to) exploring food choices and since we concluded all “price lock” so there’s no real competition (expect to pay £30 pp wherever you go minimum) the hotel restaurant was comparable in price as a result - and superb. Excellent fish dishes. A truly accomplished chef. The desserts were next level. The restaurant service is silver service and is *absolutely superb*. Pretty veranda to watch the sunsets. They should do more to promote the restaurant. And could add a few inviting drinks evenings in the bars. We noticed mainly Portuguese families dining with us. Says a lot! It’s quiet because it’s Underrated in our opinion. However we were as happy here as any beach or local restaurant and rated the food more highly so tended to stay. Kids food catered. A final word about the breakfasts which are typical buffet style with a good hot food selection and as always a wonderful array of breads yoghurts fruits and juices. I can’t quite fathom some of the negative reviews. I guess they must prefer ubiquitous modern soulless styles. We’re thoroughly enjoying our stay. Only advice is to research the area beforehand make use of Ubers. And if you’re really keen on beach restaurants you’ll need to book WEEKs ahead of your stay. Top tip Bold Octopus is overrated. Unlucky if you’re new to the location you’ll struggle to catch on and book in time. The Brits book everything out.

I have just stayed nearly 4 weeks here with my 11 & 12 year old girls. Everything was beyond what I had expected The rooms, pool, restaurants for breaky etc were all you would want or need. I would like to also commend the hotel on their staff who were so helpful at all times and very friendly Thank you Jane

Overall a really great hotel. Clean, friendly staff and great pool. Dinner and breakfast both very good. Just one or two issues with noises travelling from one room to the other. Would stay again and recommend to others who are visiting the area.

We love this hotel. Tania reservations superb and recommend to book Directly to hotel for offers and not pay third party bookers. Better deals and service. Please just Open the bar on the reception floor for best tv sports co stage. Tennis and golf. Hate being sent to pool bar. Empty! More luxurious on the ground floor and more vibe! Love this hotel Otherwise !

We had a great few days at Ria Park. We had a family room which was two large bedrooms with an interconnecting door. They were smart, clean and there was ample space for the 4 of us! We absolutely loved the large pool area surrounded by palm trees and the kids enjoyed the smaller kiddie pool while we watched them from the sun beds. All the staff were friendly and helpful, especially the team round the pool! Can vouch the cocktails and lunch bits are yummy and the breakfast bits are amazing!! The outside seating area for breakfast was beautiful and there was so much choice we couldn't try it all, although we tried - the bubbly is a nice touch as well. The local area, goes without saying is a bit special with endless restaurants and beaches to try. And the uber service is cheap, easy and quick way to get around, think it was roughly £20 from the airport! We had such a good time we are coming back for a few nights in August. Thank you for a lovely holiday :-)
