"Beach view room provided partial beach view at best. Rooms dark, still in 80's style. Breakfast good, La Tortue is nice restaurant. Several pools with a lot of chairs, in and out of shade."

"I wouldn’t recommend the hamburger other than that all first class"

"Fabulous resort, we had such an amazing time! Staff are all so lovely & helpful, they were very accommodating with my partners allergies as well."

"Room was clean and comfortable. Screen door allowed me to sleep with the air off and listening to the winds blow thru the palm trees. Very relaxing. Food was good with plenty of options and beach also nice. Not a fan of the wind blockers around all the beach loungers' as it blocks the view and people are right next to each other. I like my space. Overall, I had a great time and enjoyed the resort. "

"A great, breakfast very good, amazing bed, awesome shower, reception staff great"

"I am Pedro Ramos. Everything in the Riu Palace is the best."

"This property has a great view of the harbor and a rooftop pool. The staff is very friendly. It is a larger property so the rooms feel very standard issue. Breakfast was very good. My only complaint echoes another reviewer's: there are some type of very small ants that were present in the room during my stay. I found this annoying. The restaurant, Americos, is excellent. If you value a view and a hotel with a pool that is convenient to the ferry, this is the place. Personally, I would explore other hotel options if I were back in Mindelo, but I would definitely go back to Americos."

"Staff was great and friendly, location was great. Just a few blocks from the beach and the boardwalk."

"Just WOW! Fabulous resort. Great food (especially as a vegetarian). Great activities and entertainment. And the staff treat you like family!"
