An introduction to Riu Palace Macao

Nodding palm trees. Beaches soft as eiderdown. And sparkling turquoise seas. If this sounds like your idea of holiday heaven then you'll love the Riu Palace Macao. Cocooned in a lush curtain of exotic greenery, this hotel's set right on the coast. It's your passport to the 14-mile paradise that is Bavaro beach. Slip on your shades, smooth on some lotion and melt into a world of your own as palm fronds whisper in the tropical breeze. Bliss.

Not to be outdone, the cruciform pool is dotted with splashing fountains and statues of mermaids look out across the gently rippling water. With your batteries recharged, why not join in with some of the activities on offer? Like a game of volleyball. Perfect your serve out on the tennis courts. Or maybe give scuba-diving a try with the free introductory lessons in the pool? If all that activity leaves you yearning for some relaxation, make a beeline for the bubbles and let the whirlpool jets wash over you.

Feeling hungry? Well, you won't be short on choice when it comes to dining. Whether it's sushi in the Kabuki Japanese or sirloin in the Steakhouse, you can tuck into something different every night. After dinner, chance your luck in a game of blackjack down at the casino or maybe take in one of the glitzy stage shows.

When you're ready to turn in for the night, retreat to the comfort of your bedroom. Decorated in soft, soothing tones and set with wooden headboards and elegant wing chairs, the rooms here have a real touch of class about them. What's more they're extremely spacious and kitted out with mod-cons like air-conditioning and satellite TVs. So, if you're looking for a stylish hotel in a dreamy beachfront setting the Riu Palace Macao is just the ticket. Enjoy.
