"Really beautiful hotel, our room was lovely. Was super clean, and staff were excellent at cleaning it throughout and leaving special touches. The balcony facing the ocean was nice, with really comfortable chairs out there. Loved everything about the room. The pool, sauna and steam room were lovely too and the sunbeds outside were very comfortable. Breakfast was lovely, a nice selection of food and the location of the hotel was great (lots of restaurants nearby and buses). Really lovely area to stay, it was nice and quiet!"

"We greatly enjoyed our stay at Aqua Natura hotel. We had an amazing room that overlooked the ocean and pools. The staff were very welcoming upon arrival and went above and beyond to make our stay special. The restaurant staff, pool staff and front desk were top notch. Our room was clean, the beds and pillow were comfortable. We ate at the natural pool beer house for breakfast Buffett and dinner and thought the food was tasty. Unfortunately we had too short of stay and were not able to enjoy some of the amazing amenities at this facility. We hope to come back some time and enjoy more of the amenities. We would highly recommend to others. You will not be disappointed."

"★★★★★ Exceptional Hospitality at RIU Madeira! We had a wonderful experience at RIU Madeira Resort! We arrived at the hotel before 9 AM, and even though our room wasn't ready yet, the staff warmly welcomed us and allowed us to enjoy the resort's amenities and breakfast right away. What impressed us even more was the flexibility on our departure day. Since our flight wasn't until 10 PM, we were allowed to continue enjoying the resort's facilities, relaxing, and having snacks even after checking out. This level of hospitality and flexibility made our stay so much more comfortable and enjoyable. The staff truly went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. For this exceptional hospitality alone, RIU Madeira deserves five stars! Highly recommended!"
