I had a very disappointing experience at this hotel. The room was not clean when I arrived, the bathroom had an unpleasant smell, and the bed was uncomfortable. The staff were not very friendly or helpful, and it took a long time to resolve even simple requests.
The hotel was very clean, and all of the staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The entertainment was good.
Unfortunately, there were several areas that let the hotel down.
The main restaurant/canteen was far too small for the number of guests, and the layout simply doesn’t work when the hotel is busy. It felt overcrowded at peak times. We also found the food disappointing and ended up eating out every evening except one. During our stay, we only had breakfast and lunch at the hotel on one day.
The pool areas were also extremely crowded, with many guests reserving sunbeds before 9am, making it difficult to find somewhere to relax.
Finally, the drinks selection was very limited. Most drinks were served in plastic cups, and for a four-star hotel we expected a much better range of cocktails and premium drink options rather than mainly pre-mixed iced drinks. There wasn’t even an Aperol Spritz or Hugo Spritz available, which was disappointing given how popular they are.
It’s a good base hotel but wouldn’t return as have paid not much more for other 4 star hotels which provided a better holiday overall.
My husband booked a 5 night break for us both as a surprise to celebrate my 50th birthday and it didn’t disappoint. We arrived home yesterday after a fantastic holiday.
The hotel is pristine - beautifully clean in all areas - and the grounds and gardens are also immaculate.
The room was large - we stayed in 5217 which was towards the rear of the hotel and in a quiet location. We particularly loved the large walk in shower which made a refreshing change compared to other hotels we’ve stayed in.
Staff were friendly and attentive and a bottle of pink fizz and two glasses were left in our room on my birthday which was really appreciated.
Food and entertainment excellent. I just wish the menu differed in the Italian restaurant. It was the same the whole of our stay and unfortunately I didn’t like any of the mains so we never ate there.
Riu is always close to my heart - I met my husband at a Riu hotel in Tunisia before the chain pulled out. This is why my husband chose this particular hotel. It’s a part of Spain I’d never contemplated before but was a truly lovely experience and the perfect way to celebrate my big birthday.
Thank you so much for a fantastic stay.
Week long holiday with my son. Lovely hotel with great service. Staff were friendly and the food was very good. Great selection, and make sure you book the Italian restaurant which I highly recommend. Stone throw from the beach, and no problem finding sunbeds around the pool, but of course the best spots are snapped up when the pools open , so be quick. Would definitely recommend to family and friends
The staff at the hotel awesome from booking in to leaving, always had a smile.nothing was to much trouble.the room was spotless,the food was excellent and plentiful.would definitely return.
