Riu Vistamar

I stayed here with my mum and sister in June. I was really worried as there had been some pretty bad reviews on the lead up to my stay but soon found out these were all quite unfair! We had a lovely stay. The food, drinks and facilities were all good. The free shuttle to the beach is a great perk and you are very close to the local town by taxi. The rooms and hotel were also very clean and the view from the hotel was exceptional. I do agree however that the hotel is a little bit of a struggle for people who struggle with stairs and mobility.

Not a good experience at the hotel not toddler friendly, The is hardly any option for food for a toddler. Hard going up and down stairs with a pushchair and a toddler when the lift is broken going up to the swimming pool. A child has a accident in the kids swimming pool and pooed in the pool and they only closed it for an hour which is very unhygienic and put us off going in the kids pools with our toddler who is 17 months old. Also I found a cockroach in the bread rolls when I was getting my lunch and I reported it and nothing got done about it. Would never come back to this hotel.

Writing this review as we sit around the pool for our final few hours in this beautiful hotel before we sadly head home after a glorious week. This is our 2nd stay here, we stayed last August and are back less than a year later and it sure did not disappoint, yet again! Rooms are always clean, spacious and well maintained. Food is always fresh, well replenished and something for everyone! This is our final holiday as just us two before we welcome our baby and what a lovely, needed relaxing time we've had. The moment the staff were aware of my pregnancy, they arranged a room close to the lifts for me and on a higher floor to suit the hotel layout. We had an amadores beach view and it was breathtakingly stunning. There's always something going on such as games and activities, all are welcomed to join in but never pressured. The entertainment staff are fabulous! Such a lovely hotel, with a great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and hope to return to experience the family side this hotel offers! Thank you Riu Vistamar!

We came here for 7 nights on the 2nd July. The hotel was pleasantly clean, the food was nice but quite repetitive. The rooms were clean, beds comfy too! We enjoyed the sports bar and its air conditioning as it was very hot, unfortunately the toilets were out of order for the majority of our stay which meant us having to go down to use reception. I do NOT recommend this hotel if you’re a smoker.. you cannot smoke in ANY of the bars or around the pools, you get a designated spot to smoke.. next to the bins, this is the only thing really that has put us off going back to the hotel completely and also the lifts were a NIGHTMARE. Overall it was a nice stay and definitely 4* hotel.

Fabulous hotel. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent with a wide variety of choice. There was a different choice of carved meats available every day. The hotel is on top of a cliff and there are loads of steps. The pools are at the top via steps but are clean. Loads of sun beds available but some ignorant people still reserved beds and didn’t turn up until later in the day. Very annoying to watch some people struggling when others are just annoying.
