We have just returned after our second visit to to the Riu Arecas. We returned because of the excellent time we had there 2 years ago and were just as satisfied on this occasion. We were a party of 4; a married couple aged 52 and 61, Mum aged 84, and her sister in law aged 87. Mum has limited... More

Visited this hotel for a weeks sun in May. Got to say the rooms were absolutely spotless. Rooms were tidied early morning with clean towels and bed linen every day. Resturant was a buffet style but had to be booked for either 6pm or 8pm. Food hot and a good selection of hot and cold dishes but it was repetitive... More

Multiple visits to this hotel reinforce my thoughts, there is strong hotel Management going on here. The Director of the place ( Asun) is very visible at meal times and around Reception area constantly interacts with guests, listening to comments and seeking feedback. Couple of years back I complained that there was no Wi-Fi. They now have installed payable Wi-Fi... More

I, up to date, have never written this kind of review on here, but this hotel was an experience I had to write about! The hotel is really clean and in a lovely peaceful spot, but I just did not find it relaxing in any way; it was regimented with regards to dining times; i.e, on arrival you are allocated... More

Our third visit to The Arecas did not disappoint. An amazing hotel for a 4* rated establishment. Apart from it being set back from the beach with a few steps to climb, it is perfectly situated on a quiet stretch of seafront adjoining only other 4* and 5* hotels. A few minutes walk south are lovely restaurants and shops. At... More

Stayed at this hotel for 1 week as a couple, emailed ahead for a room with a sea/pool view and was not disappointed as we got a lovely room allocated on arrival. We booked a flexi trip via Thomas Cook so we didn't have the bother of going to a Welcome meeting etc, Staff very friendly, room very clean, and... More

Just came back from a 6 day break in May 2013. We chose the hotel because it's reasonably easy to get to from the airport (25mins by taxi), is near to the town but far enough away to be relaxing. Staff were great, friendly and helpful. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable (even with good selection of TV channels). The... More

Just back from staying at the Riu Aceras which is a platinum hotel and totally lived up to our expectations. The hotel is set in beautiful picturesque surroundings in the gorgeous area of Playa del Duque. The rooms were spacious and immaculate with comfortable beds and white linen sheets and the food was varied and very tasty and well cooked.... More
