We were fortunate to be able to find a room when arriving a day earlier than planned. The property is lovely outdoors, very friendly staff in the restaurant. They were shocked for a last minute booking so it was a slower check in. We didn’t arrive on the best day, a strike for hotel employees was creating havoc. We didn’t have great meal experiences. Paper plates, plastic cutlery and no wine available. The room was very tired with minimal amenities, uncomfortable bed and pillows. The pool was closed at 6.

This is a lovely hotel in a very nice place. The only downside is the large number of steps to access the beach and boardwalk- it may not suit senior citizens, it was a bit of a struggle for my eighty year old father. We bought some really nice local wine, but the hotel would not let us drink it anywhere except our room, even when we offered to pay a corkage fee.

Lovely place and the beach club shared with the Riu Palace was nice. My gripes were that I’d booked on the strength of gym reviews - the gym is pretty poor in terms of equipment and had lots of machines out of order; I also think it is pretty shocking to charge for rental of the safe in the room.

Good service and facilities with great location

The hotel is in a great location, a short distance from El Duque Sur and only a 20 minute walk to La Caleta. It is spotlessly clean with very service and facilities. We stayed half board and whilst the breakfast offered a great choice and catered for all tastes, the buffet-style evening meal was very disappointing, as was the meal in the Spanish restaurant. If it was available, we would choose to stay bed and breakfast. All-in-all, a very good hotel that we have re-booked for next year.

Good enough

€250 euros for a 2 night bed breakfast and evening meal. Breakfast was good enough, bed was comfy, dinner was satisfactory. What more can you ask for. Good price, clean, friendly, comfy bed, nice food.
