Riu Arecas

Second time at this hotel adults only. First thing that hits you is the friendliness of staff. Feels like you’ve come to a much smaller family home. Food has improved over the past year and if you like fresh fish and seafood particularly Wednesday and Thursday then you’re in for a treat. Always cleaning hotel is spotless. Visit La Caleta 20 min walk up the coast. There is a lack of bars for a drink, but if you go left back towards Del duque area couple down there nice and chilled. All in all lovely place and we will return. Special mention in the bar area for Wilson Franco and Salvo. Andrew and Ivan on reception and Joaquim in the restaurant all a credit to this hotel.

Just got home from a fabulous fortnight at the cleanest hotel I’ve been to this is our second visit it was even better the food is amazing and something for every taste swimming pools are just nice temperatures for a cool down dip entertainment on a night is pretty good every person that works in hotel has a smile on their faces I would like to mention two people who made our holiday even better Barbara our cleaner in room 3098 was amazing she is a credit to the hotel and Salvo at the bar another great employee always had a bit chat and a joke made the night fly over beer was good as well I will be back again soon lovely hotel

This is our 4th year at Riu Arecas We won't book anywhere else now! It's a beautiful hotel with hard working welcoming staff . Busy hotel but it's always very clean Rooms are large basic ,yes dated but they are very spacious and once again always cleaned to high spec by the maids Last year we were upgraded to a pool view and we were so so greatful for the reception staff to do this ! Fantastic Value for money, drinks are reasonably priced ,ice creams,pool bar etc.all very good prices. Pool area is very large and clean but can get busy .Pool bar staff are very good and helpful👍. Overall service is 100% Staff go above and beyond. We Look Forward to returning on the 21st September 2026 !!! Miss Hayley Walters + Mr Neil Eggleton

Adult only hotel. 2 lovely swimming pools and a beach club with a smaller infinity pool. Staff couldn’t be more friendly and helpful. Everywhere spotlessly clean. Rooms spacious, and l great shower room. we had a room with a balcony overlooking the pool which was lovely for us. Buffet breakfast & dinner offered a wide selection of delicious dishes, different roast meat each day, Italian dishes, seafoods, grills & salads. Half board basis but you can have snack/lunch for approx €8 .live music in the evening which finishes about 2230-2300. Next door hotel Tivoli has the most amazing restaurant ‘Seen’ , for a special occasion. It’s as cheap to hire a car for 2 days, rather than a taxi to and from the airport. This hotel is about 20 minutes from airport. 5 min walk to beach and promenade and a supermarket We will be back!

We are currently sitting at the hotel awaiting our transfer home, this is the 2nd time we have w stayed in a Riu ( 1st time was in Mexico) and I have to be honest they will be my ‘go to’ from now on. All staff were excellent, food was great, room was great, reception staff are exceptional! So helpful! Would highly recommend this hotel and hope to come back at some point. Well done Riu , and of course Arecas!!
