Holiday get away from UK winter! We booked a lazy beach holiday and that’s exactly what we got. Thanks to all the hard working staff at the Riu hotel. The hotel was exactly as described. Sea view rooms fantastic, spacious and clean. Staff work immensely hard cleaning, waiting and catering for guests. Yes there are a few steps to get to the beach, which wouldn’t suit less able or older less mobile people. But for most it’s an easy stroll! We did half board and there was plenty of food choice and it was all to a good standard. A little entertainment on at night, different singers etc or there are a few restaurants and bars in either direction of hotel.

We have been using the Riu Palace for many years now and we have high expectations based on our visits. It has never failed to deliver and excellent experience. The hotel is impressive and offers excellent food, drink and entertainment. We see people we know every visit, so the return rate is very high. As always thankyou to Jesus, Fran and his team, Manolo & Kiku, Angel, Aldo, Danny, Antonio and the team, the restaurant with David and Marisol, Vicky, Alex and their team. Apologies if I missed anyone but I could name dozens of staff who treat us like family. Fabulous experience and we will be back in March

“Relaxing quiet great views”

We’ve just returned from a last minute 5 day visit to find some sun over new year. We had a great room 4124 with sea view, got sun on the balcony from 10 and saw amazing sunsets. The place was really chilled, full of German tourists so barely another British voice there. Consequently we weren’t a… more

We’ve just returned from a last minute 5 day visit to find some sun over new year. We had a great room 4124 with sea view, got sun on the balcony from 10 and saw amazing sunsets. The place was really chilled, full of German tourists so barely another British voice there. Consequently we weren’t always fully understood by the staff there but we got by. One restaurant guy Gustavo deserves a special mention as he was amazing; so friendly and welcoming, a delight! The food was fine. It’s a buffet but if you choose carefully and have a small sample first you can hunt out the better dishes. Shame that we couldn’t get into the second a la carte restaurant as it was fully booked. Delighted to report that the usual booking sunbeds wasn’t an issue as there were always enough without towels on them unless you wanted the premier spots. We had 5 days of relaxing in the sun, sipping aperols and reading books. Just what we needed. Taxi from airport about 130 euros.

“Lovely resort, great rooms. ”

Great location but beach access not as easy as it could be, the room was nicely furnished and modern, we upgraded to a sea view at a considerable extra cost but ended up with an intermittently noisy air conditioning unit above us ( room 1305) , not always a problem though .

Great location but beach access not as easy as it could be, the room was nicely furnished and modern, we upgraded to a sea view at a considerable extra cost but ended up with an intermittently noisy air conditioning unit above us ( room 1305) , not always a problem though . The food was good and lots to choose from although it wasn't always hot, great staff in the restaurant, Alex a really nice guy, Ben and Gustavo too, one gripe with the restaurant is long trousers only rule, many wearing tracksuit bottoms to comply, smart shorts look far better in my opinion, and where's the equality ? The pool area was very quiet and spacious, maybe some background music would improve the atmosphere. The evening entertainment was varied and overall very good, however Robert and Juliet were on almost every other day and while the other artists addressed the audience in German, English and Spanish, Robert only spoke German, somewhat excluding us Brits. I would recommend the hotel, as well as the neighbouring Calypso. The resort is lovely.
