Delicious Dining Experience

“I was genuinely impressed with the dining options at Rua Beach Resort. The homemade pasta we had for dinner was absolutely delicious, proof of the Italian culinary influence here. Both breakfast and other meals featured fresh ingredients, with many vegetables sourced straight from their backyard, making it a true farm-to-table experience!” view full review

Spacious and Clean Rooms

“Our beachfront room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and spotlessly clean. I loved waking up to the sound of the ocean waves right outside my door. The cozy atmosphere and comfortable mattress allowed for peaceful nights, with no need for air conditioning due to the perfect climate.” view full review

Relaxing Pools

“The resort offered not one, but two lovely swimming pools. I spent wonderful afternoons lounging by the clean and attractive pools, soaking up the sun amidst the beautifully designed garden. It was an ideal setting to unwind and enjoy the tranquil surroundings.” view full review

I had a pleasant stay at this resort spa, with clean and spacious rooms that matched the pictures. The service was accommodating, especially when they helped me with some translation issues. The location right on Rua Beach was stunning. However, the dining experience during breakfast was not as diverse as I hoped, and the Wi-Fi situation could have been better. Overall, it felt like good value for money, but there’s room for improvement.
