The hotel is greatly located in the area from which it is an easy walk to the railway station, shopping, restaurants, etc. The food is tasty and there were lots of choices. The staff is helpful. The entertainment team is trying to make people happy. The bars , especially the one next to the reception, are excellent. The coffee is amazing. Thank you.

Beautiful hotel. The pools are gorgeous and it is right across from an amazing beach. The food was really good, although after 10 days it was getting pretty repetitive. There were always tables available in the restaurant and chairs in the pool. Unlike other Riu all inclusive that we have been to, there were no waiters/waitresses to serve drinks at the bars or the pools which was unusual, but other than that it was wonderful.

Creepy receptionist and very poor stay
Started off with an unpleasant welcome as a late arrival as the hotel couldn’t find my booking so was just told to wait. The check in guy at reception was deliberately unhelpful, talking over me every time I spoke and refusing any suggestion that would enable me to get my room. Eventually I had to pay twice to get my room. My room had no WiFi, the key cards didn’t work, the shower head was shoulder height as I was put in a disabled room, which couldn’t actually be accessed by wheelchair, the room was very tired and worn out, I paid for all inclusive but given the late arrival and faff by the hotel I was told I had 10 mins to eat before they closed for the night, the staff were unable to tell me if I had been charged twice or not and I’d need to speak to the manager as they had no idea, but they don’t have a manager who works after 5pm - in a hotel whereby the main service is provided at night. In the morning I asked to speak to the manager yet wasn’t allowed. When I checked out with a different lady the very rude and strange guy who checked me just stared at me even though he wasn’t dealing with me then walked over pointing scissors at me. A really odd bloke who has no place in hospitality.

no drinks in room fridge not even bottle of water, could not change pool towels until 4pm each day and only 1 location you could this. Some of the staff were very surly and felt that they did not want to be there. As a riu class member found this the worst Riu hotel i have stayed in. Saving grace was that the food was very good.
