We had a fabulous stay at the Hotel RIU in Madeira! Food The food was outstanding and plentiful. There was food for everyone, and a great selection for vegetarians and pescatarians. Salads, cheeses, gazpacho and other soups every night at supper, meats, fish, fresh fruit, desserts and ice cream. Great selection for kids/ picky eaters, too, including plain pastas and pizzas. Snacks available at Pepe’s Pool Bar usually included French fries, battered and fried zucchini/ eggplant/ cauliflower, and some meat options. One small suggestion: at Pepe’s, it would be great to have a dedicated serving spoon/ tongs for the non-meat food, so that us vegetarians don’t have to use, for example, the hot dog tongs to serve our vegetarian food. In general, it might be a good idea in the dining room to put the vegetarian options in its own section in order to avoid cross-contamination with the meat options. But this is very minor. Pina coladas (non-alcoholic and alcoholic) are delicious! The bartenders were generous with Irish cream on the rocks. Location Caniço is approximately 15-20 minutes from Funchal. It costs about 15 euros by Bolt (the Madeira equivalent of Uber or Lyft), or the RIU offers an included shuttle service. The shuttle to Funchal leaves at 9:30am/10:30am /11:30am. The shuttle returning to the hotel departs from Funchal at 3pm/4pm/5pm. Must reserve a spot on the shuttle 1-2 days in advance. An earlier departure option and later return option would be ideal.

The location was very convenient for trips to both the coast and inside of the island, a straight shot from the airport but still quiet, safe and secluded. The property was sparkling clean, including grounds and swimming pools. 24 hrs front desk, quickly responsive to requests such as extra patio chair or ironing equipment. Plenty of lounge chairs available with or without sunshade around the immaculately clean pools. Food variety at each meal included vegetarian, gluten and lactose free options, and mainly catered to the majority population of older European customers, nonetheless, our 10 year old could easily find tasty and healthy options. Nightly entertainment such as live bands, dance shows, magic show, plenty of card and board games available for checking out. The few downsides to mention: as everywhere in Europe, smoking is permitted inside the facilities, even at poolside and in restaurants. Parking at the hotel can be challenging if opting not to pay extra for the hotel maintained lot. Finally, I would say, this is not the best option to stay for families with small children, as the majority of activities and amenities are geared towards the leasurely adult population.

Lyckad semester.
Vi uppskattar det mesta med hotellet, bra service och hjälpsam personal. Passar utmärkt för familjer i flera generationer (om än inte högsta fokus på barnaktiviteter). Vi var nöjda med buffé restaurangen och även specialrestaurangen (man får gå på 1 gång/vecka). Vi tyckte basic drinkar såsom gin & tonic, rom & cola etc. var bra dock lämnade poolbaren blandade drinkar mycket att önska. Vi uppskattar mycket att de uppmärksammade min födelsedag med mousserat vin, stort tack för det! Pool området var vi nöjda med. Trevlig strandpromenad med tillgång till allmänt bad. Vi är mycket nöjda med vår vistelse på Madeira och hotel RIU.

Great service, mediocre food/location
The service at this place was out of this world. We felt incredibly taken care of by the entire staff. The hotel is lovely and well maintained. The views are gorgeous however it is not on a beach, it is on a very boulder and rock laden waterfront so worth noting if beach access is important to your holiday. The food leaves a lot to be desired, and because of that I would not come again as a couple however would visit again with children as the all inclusive does make vacationing very easy. We took advantage of booking excursions through the front desk and ended up paying a lot less working with the hotel (bonus!) The excursions were wonderful.
