I am writing this review over half way through my week’s holiday at the Marina Suites Apartment Hotel. I am currently in a lot of physical pain and am due to have an operation in two weeks. The Marina Suites is the ideal place for me to build up my strength and create a positive mental attitude. My husband and I are in a spacious Premier suite on the fifth floor with a beautiful view over the harbour. It is absolutely ideal. It is extremely quiet with the sun coming on the balcony late in the afternoon. The cooking facilities are good and the staff had a bed made up ready for me in the large lounge area for when we arrived. All the staff are friendly but particular mention must go to Sadaq, on reception, who has gone out of her way to accommodate and please us. Thank you Sadaq. Paula at breakfast and Alan the life guard are also helpful and a delight to talk to. The 44 metre infinity pool has made the holiday for me. I am a keen swimmer and used it for therapy twice a day. It has never had more than three other people in it and usually I swim alone. It is just the right temperature and the views are stunning. I can honestly say that it is the best hotel pool that I have ever swum in. The apartments are slightly out of the bustling,small town which is touristy and full of restaurants and gift shops. There are two good supermarkets close by and a huge Spar a little further away that sells everything. We went by taxi to the Spar as it is uphill and walked back. I would highly recommend Marina Suites and suggest if you have any particular requirement requests you email them direct, they respond very promptly and genuinely do their best to please. We will be back.
Here for the first time at hotel Terrazamar & Sunsuites in Gran Canaria. The hotel, like most of them here, backs up onto the side of the small valley where the resort is situated, however all throughout the resort,you will find strategically placed lifts and escalators so getting around is easy and,most important, non energetic! The hotel is well appointed with a shop,bakery and small cafe in the lobby and couple of lift rides sees you in the resort proper. The rooms are spacious and include a small kitchen, bedroom and good sized bathroom with a nice living room space to relax.I would recommend the Terrazamar and Sunsuites for any stay here in Puerto Rico and just to emphasise the fact my wife and I have already booked for next year.
Vistamar is in a great position with sea views from virtually everywhere in the hotel. Fantastic place to catch the sunsets. Was slightly worried about the stomach bug reviews on here but we were all ok. Hotel is very clean and we never heard anyone complaining about being ill from the food. For us personally not enough chicken and beef on the menu. A lot of pork and liver which we are not keen on. Burgers, hot dogs and sandwiches available all night in the sports bar which is great for after a night out. Would say the smoking areas need to be more clearly marked. I was told off in quite an aggressive manner for smoking on the balcony in the sports bar by staff member. Overall a great hotel with friendly staff. I have received an email from riu since returning saying they are going to take 400 euros from my credit card for a no show???i have sent them my confirmation sign in email i received but have had no reply from them so i am left worrying that they are going to take another 400 euros from my credit card.
We have been to Puerto Rico a few times, and this is by far the best hotel we have stayed in. Our room (207) was very spacious and clean. We booked through Jet2 holidays, and we were pleasantly surprised to find that we had a private taxi waiting to transfer us from the airport to the hotel. Apparently this is due to the location of the hotel, and that your standard coach struggles to turn around once they have dropped you off. The pool area is great, and the lifeguard is always cleaning the area. He takes pride in his work. Reception staff are also great, and the gentleman who works there in the afternoon, is always happy and smiling. Overall we had a great holiday, and wouldn’t hesitate to book this hotel again in the future. The weather was fantastic during our 5 nights stay.
