Great unbiassed overview - would be handy for anyone thinking of going to this hotel. We have stayed there more than 10 times. The place is starting to look rather dated and in need of refurbishment, which unfortunately has been deferred on several occasions. It is one of the last in the Riu group that has not yet been done. No doubt some of the elderly clients will be horrified when it happens, however if it is not completed soon, visitor numbers will fade along with those ageing clients. One of my main reasons for repeatedly returning is the quality of the staff. It's great to be recognised on our return and the welcome feels very sincere. I wish Riu well for speedy return of business following the virus pandemic.
Hi Steven, thank you for your comments - much appreciated. Yes, it does need a refurbishment - It does have a peaceful feel to the place, which is probably at least in part, due to the age of the clientele. We had a 12 year old with us and she is happy with the pool etc - however not many other children there. I agree - the staff were lovely - always helpful, polite and engaging. A lovely touch for a large hotel. Tough times for the holiday industry - lets hope things get back to normal soon. Thanks again Steven and sorry for the delay. Keep safe.
The much mentioned refurbishment is now nearing it's completion. That said I love this hotel, have been many times, and if I could only choose one place to go for the rest of my life, granted I'm nearing the end of mine, I would choose to go here. The staff are excellent, they tell us 'welcome home' when we arrive. The video was very fair and very informative so thanks for going to the trouble of producing it. Just to correct you on one point though. The nude beaches are not just gay and they are usually quite well defined which is which.
Hi Reg, thank you for taking the time to reply - much appreciated - glad you like the hotel and good to hear the refurbishment is nearing completion. Really appreciate the correction - we didn't visit the beach, so thats helpful. Agreed that the staff were excellent - hopefully we can all holiday again soon. Take care and thank you again

Thank you for a great video. Very well produced.
Thank you Sean, obviously the world is a different place now, so travel logs are tough to do! Glad you found it useful.
