Super Nice hotel.
Fantastic Hotel. right down to the promenade, the beach and the Mediterranean. Nice pool with plenty of sunbeds, even if you arrive late there is the option of getting a sunbed. Super delicious morning and evening buffet. Possibility of a la carte in the evening. Very clean and nice common areas. Friendly and welcoming staff. +18 years to stay at the hotel provides a nice and quiet hotel, both day and night. It's certainly not the last time we've been there. Greetings, a couple in their 60s.

Senior only
This hotel says “adults only” but its really pension / senior only, being sarcastic. I was the only one below 60 years and with tight skin. Service of the hotel receptionist are very arrogant, I think they are not used to a young person. I had insects in my room and I spent the night finding insects and mosquitos.

The hotel interior is a little bit used, but otherwise ok. Beds are side by side but separated that was a problem for us. Average age of the clients is about 70. Pool is excellent. Altogether satisfied with the holidays.

Winter sun break 2023
Really nice, modern hotel, at the far end of Torremolinos, closer to Benalmádena. Great base for exploring the area. Excellent outdoor pool area and direct access to the beach. Decent buffet breakfast and dinner with plenty of choice and different options each evening. Colour scheme in the lobby area not to everyone’s taste, but bright and airy. Nice indoor pool, gym and spa.

Old and tired
The hotel is dated and not sound proofed. Noise in hallways. House keeping walked in on us while we were sleeping. Deceptive advertising as there seems to be a newer part of the hotel and we were in an old tired wing.

A great stay
Booked for two nights and stayed for four. We received a great welcome, had a lovely room on the seventh floor and had dinner included. The food was typical of a buffet style hotel restaurant and with plenty of choice. A good hotel to rekax in. We especially applauded the fact that there was no music around the pool area. Easy access to the beach. Very clean throughout with friendly and helpful staff. We'd definitely stay again if we were in the area.

Fantastic Hotel
Just returned from a child free break at the RIU Nautilus. We arrived at 1230, greeted with a glass of Champagne and our room was ready! Had a brilliant top floor sea view room which was really big and extremely clean. Fridge in the room to use, wifi was brilliant, even available round the pool. Food was fantastic, plenty of choice both at breakfast and dinner. Cannot fault the service. Location was perfect, right on the seafront with lots of bars, supermarkets on the doorstep. Will definitely return again if we have the opportunity.

Will definitely visit again…
Excellent.. from when we arrived (early) to when we left, the service and facilities were excellent. Room available for early check in, reception staff very helpful, even when we left a rucksack in the taxi! Buffet food for breakfast and dinner fresh and plentiful and meal times were perfect.. Ideal location, miles of promenade to walk and within easy reach of bars and beach. Used the indoor pool, chilly but clean, didn’t use the outdoor pool, very cold but this was early March.. Will definitely visit again, well done to the staff and team, loved our visit. Thank you.

Beautiful and stylish hotel in excellent sea fron.
Lovely hotel. Large well equipped bedrooms. Shower very spacious. Room cleaned on a daily basis. Food absolutely outstanding. Plenty of choice and lots of choices for Vegetarians. Live music in the hotel every evening. Hotel foyer large and attractive. Decor very pleasing. Pool area faces the beach but is private and secure. Plenty of sun beds and towels available. Indoor pool and spa which we did not use. Car parking available in front of hotel including 3 spaces for Blue Badge holders.

Agree with all the great reviews of this hotel BUT beware apparently they have a rather strange rule which allows guests to invite people who are not staying there onto the property to use the facilities including pool and restaurant and that includes CHILDREN AND BABIES!! I do not expect to specifically book and pay for an adult only hotel and be surrounded by kids two days running I was told by the receptionist that they can visit as day guests and use the facilities. Although the sign at the entrance clearly states over 18 and guests only Not good Riu!! They told me its public property - what nonsense! I have never known this in any other adult only hotel so just a warning that your peace and quiet may be disturbed!!

Checkout Staff disgraceful
Extremely rude Gentleman on check out today. Named Abdel. Abdel should be trained up in the correct attitude towards guests, for example, he could ask how a persons stay was, and perhaps not hang up so abruptly upon denying a late checkout. The hotels not full and I’d have booked further days without that checkout experience if they could have organized a proper double bed for us. Single beds only it seems?? Also, a policy of talking to younger clients like a teacher would do, I am 45, the hotel was I’d estimate at a third occupancy of mainly Dutch retirees. We were told that the hotel does not allow ppl use the facilities after check out. The Lady made an exception for us it seems as the pool wasn’t busy. Excuse me for expecting the use of facilities on check out day. Speaking of checkout it was our delay in checking out that ruffled the feathers of Mr Abdel. I make no apologies for being tardy to checkout when you arrive the night before at 9pm.
