Happy Holiday
Fabulous base for exploring the Island. All inclusive was good. The place was spotless and the staff were lovely. Not sure why I have read negative feedback just couldn’t fault the place.
Moore Holiday
Visit this hotel beginning of Sept 2026 for one week. The accommodation and hotel is very clean, friendly staff. However there is 2 hotels in one, the main hotel is where main food hall is and pool entertainment/ night entertainment. We where accommodated in the other side of the hotel, approximately 5 mins walk. This part of the hotel has 2 large pools and snack/ bar, no entertainment at all, no music, etc, which can be a bit boring. So if you need entertained, I would suggest the main hotel pool. The night entertainment , food and drinks our average, this could be improved as an suggestion, bar only offer non Brand alcohol drinks, with branded soft drinks( coke, fanta, etc. The hotel is walking distance approximately 10 minutes from local bars, restaurants, if need a break from hotel. Pick up clean sunbed towels from each pool daily, late arrivals from the life guards, no need for the quick dash in the morning to reserve a Sunbed, as there is plenty to go around.
Return visit
Fantastic as always This is probably our 7th visit to the hotel. We had a 2 bed villa which was huge with lovely views. Lots to do for the children all day, a big thank you to the animation team who were fantastic. It was my husbands birthday on arrival and staff assisted in ensuring we had one of the speciality restaurants booked as well as with a bottle of cava in the room and at the meal. Lovely touch and amazing staff. We have already booked to come back in February. Thank you ☺️

Amazing 9-Night Stay at RIU Paraiso 🌴☀️💕✈️💖
We have just returned from a 9-night stay at RIU Parasio, and we honestly had the best time! 🌴 ☀️ 💖 From the very start right through to the end, everything about this hotel was amazing! The staff were all so lovely, friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more special!
A huge thank you to the entertainment team!
The entertainment team really made our holiday so enjoyable! They worked so hard and always made sure everyone felt welcome and included! The shows they put on were absolutely amazing, and we especially loved doing the dance at the end of the shows every night!
Both the daytime and evening entertainment were brilliant! There was always something going on, and the team were fantastic at getting everyone involved! I took part in some of the games during the afternoons and really enjoyed them! It was such fun atmosphere around the hotel!
Housekeeping & Gardens A huge thank you to the maids who worked so hard throughout our stay! Our room was always lovely and clean, and it was clear how much effort they put into keeping everything looking great! The garden team also did an amazing job! The gardens were always beautifully looked after, and they worked so hard to keep everything clean and tidy! So beautiful!
The hotel cats There were a few cats around the hotel during our stay, but they didn’t bother us at all! They have little areas around the hotel for the cats, and they mostly just sleep and relax in their own spaces! It was actually really lovely to see them!
Our room We had a pool view room and really loved it! We stayed in room 1164, which was a really nice room to have! The pool view was lovely, and we really enjoyed spending time around the hotel!
Food & Drinks The food was really nice, with lots of choices available at breakfast, lunch, and dinner! We always managed to find something we liked, and there was plenty of variety throughout our stay! The drinks were also really nice! We did find that the cocktails were nicer during the day, as they seemed a little more watery in the evening! One thing to remember is that the hotel doesn’t provide straws, so if you like using them, bring your own reusable ones along with you!
Location & Walks The location is also great if you enjoy getting out and exploring If you turn left out of the back gate, you can walk towards Matagorda! It’s around a 20-25 minute walk along the promenade, and it’s such a lovely walk! Along the way you’ll find lots of little gift shops and a couple of restaurants, so it’s definitely worth having a wander around! If you turn right, you can walk towards Puerto Del Carmen! This is a longer walk and takes around 45-60 minutes, but you can also tame a taxi! We normally paid around €8 - €10 for a taxi! We really enjoyed looking around the shops and exploring some of the bars and different areas there!
The Parrots One if our favourite little experiences was seeing the parrots! You can feed them and they may even land on you! We took some apples from the hotel and they seemed to really enjoy them! They also like monkey nuts and seeds! So cute!
Nice hotel. All inc needs improving
Nice hotel. Clean and staff were lovely. Unfortunately we will never go for all inclusive again we don't usually go all inc but went with family so was just easier. The food was basic and very repetitive. We didn't have one meal in a week we thought was great. The drinks we're very limited. The carbonated soft drinks were all flat. The pools were brilliant and the activities all day were varied. The entertainment was quite basic and repetitive. The best entertainment was one of the housekeepers making an appearance when a certain song was played. There were cats which we loved but they were clearly not cared for. No fresh water unless guests provided it please look after the welfare of your cats if your going to keep them at the hotel. Our room was perfect. Due to my husband not being able to walk far we were given a disabled room near the main pool and restaurants. The room was clean and very spacious. The entertainment staff during the day were lots of fun. The hotel isn't far from the airport so good location.
