The 'Trip Advisor' review on this hotel was invaluable, and without covering old ground once more we do think that the following points are worth emphasis. 1. The refurbishment is indeed very necessary, had we not known what to expect from earlier reviews we could easily have been disappointed by first impressions. We were on the side by the Estuary,... more

First class hotel and a five star service. If you want a really relaxing beach/pool holiday this is the place to go. I read emilyguyton review dated 5 Jun 2009 which was" spot on". If Thomsons holiday company read the reviews they will realise that the reps Debbie & Stephen deserve a pay rise. The best I have met. Go... more

Stayed from the 17th to 27th August, my husband, 3 children (18,15 and10 yrs old) and I. We asked for two rooms aside and we've got it perfect, with a comunicating balcony. Is true the decoration is in need to change but this was not enough to put a negative feeling on our holidays. The hotel has a great location,... more

This is a lovely hotel. It is a little tired in places but that will hopefully be sorted as the hotel is closing in November for a big refurb. The resort is very quiet but so relaxing. The staff can't do enough for you. From the moment you check-in and are greeted by the chap that gives you the glass... more

FROM THE MOMENT WE ARIVED TO THE MOMENT WE LEFT WE WERE TREATED AS SPECIAL.Starting with our reps Debie & Stephen,they were always there for us,I know it's their job to look after us but their knowledge of History,nature,local visits,times for opening & never pushy. Signing in on arrival at the Hotel was Quick profesional and friendly,smiles cost nothing but... more

We've just returned from a week staying at the Riu Atlantico where we had a fabulous time. As others have said, the hotel is due to close for refurbishment soon, so the carpet was patched in places and the paintwork was chipped, but it was still perfectly acceptable. What really makes this hotel stand out from the rest was the... more

My husband,friends and I have just returned from a wonderful stay at the Riu.We were all very impressed with the hotel.The rooms were a good size very clean with good sized wardrobes,the bathrooms could do with more lighting, there was always plenty of hot water and the shower was very powerful.Food was very good and the wine was reasonably priced... more

This is our 3rd time at a Riu Hotel and still no complaints. I like the idea of different heads of departments speak at the Welcome meeting, and mean what they say. Food plentiful and good choices. How can you say it gets repetitive if at hotel for 2 weeks, nobody can have 2 weeks of completely different food!!! There... more

This was the second visit to this hotel and yet again a briliant time we had it was my birthday the day we arrived and when we went for our evening meal on our table was a card from our to repsStephen and Debbie(who I must say I have been keeping in contact with) and at the end of the... more
