Hotel Hotel per famiglie a Puerto Rico

Stayed for 1 week in the middle of September with my fiancé, we’re both in our 30’s and had the best little break away here. We booked this holiday last minute, neither of us had never been to Gran Canaria before and we have nothing negative to say about our stay at the Maracaibo. The weather was perfect, sunshine everyday and not too hot. After reading all the reviews I am very glad we decided to book one of the Deluxe One Bedroom Apartments. As this just gave us a little more space in the apartment and we had a fantastic view of the swimming pool and the beach. HOTEL: - friendly/helpful hotel staff. - good aircon unit - rooms get cleaned regularly and towels changed daily. - hotel great location, high enough up for a fantastic sea view but not too high up that we couldn’t walk down to the beach and town everyday. (Roughly took us about 6/7 minutes to walk down to the centre. - nice size pool area, plenty of beds, reasonably priced food and drinks at the on-site restaurant. We didn’t spend much time at the pool as to be honest it was a little quiet for us, a little bit of subtle radio or music in the background would be quite a nice addition. BEACHES: - we only used Puerto Rico beach once but spent most days at Amadores Beach. As personally we thought beach had a bit more to it, clearer waters, more spacious, lots of beach restaurants and bars to choose from. In a taxi from the hotel took around 6 minutes and was about €7 one way. Or sometimes we walked directly there or back from the hotel which is a nice coastal walk and took around 30 minutes. We visited Anfi beach too, which is also a short taxi ride away, although a beautiful beach we preferred Amadores beach. Anfi seemed more overcrowded and had more rules and restrictions regarding playing beach games etc. - on the last day we spent the day at Amadores Beach Club. I would highly recommend doing this as a little treat. We paid €40 for the two of us. This included a large rounded beach bed facing the sea, an alcoholic or soft beverage each and full access of the pool and spa facilities in the beach club all day. We also ate in the restaurant there and the food and cocktails were amazing. AREA: - about 30/40 minutes from the airport. If you haven’t got transport included in your holiday DONT make the mistake we made and jump straight in a taxi from the airport to the hotel. We got completely ripped off and paid about $70. We later found out you can get a bus to and from airport for around €7 each and there is bus stop RIGHT OUTSIDE the hotel. (Silly us for not doing our research). - after hiring a car one day and driving round different parts of Gran Canaria we were happy really we decided to stay in Puerto Rico. It was the perfect area to be in for couples holiday in my opinion. Close to numerous beaches and lots of bars and restaurants to choose from. RESTAURANTS/BARS - a lot of people mention the Shopping Centre Puerto Rico on the reviews, we did go in there most ni

La fortezza Riu Vistamar domina con la sua imponenza l'intera parete sinistra della baia di amadores , l'impressione di trovarsi a bordo di una nave da crociera o in prigione rimarra' per l'intera permanenza . check inn veloce , a sorpresa riceviamo un ''upgrade'' a junior suite , stanza ampia pulita luminosissima e con panorama da 6* ,eravamo un po preoccupati dalle review relative a problemi di salute di alcuni ospiti ma a noi non e' capitato nulla di spiacevole. ambienti comuni datati ma pulitissimi ,cucina a pranzo molto povera a cena invece c'era l'imbarazzo della scelta ed a volte dopo un pranzo povero si tendeva ad esagerare la sera. a mio avviso l hotel proprio per la sua posizione e' da sconsigliare alle persone con ridotta mobilita' ”scale-scale-scale-scale e scale” ovunque e a coloro che vogliono vivere l' isola a causa della lontananza da tutto , 2,5km dalla spiaggia ripida discesa all'andata ripida salita al ritorno tutto sotto un bellissimo sole , zero vita serale nella baia di amadores . in 7 giorni un solo spettacolo serale degno di plauso ”i ballerini mongoli” , equipe di animatori da lincenziare in tronco causa inutilita' totale . in piscina era impossibile giocare con gonfiabili e palline ?????????? assurdo il che lo rende noioso a bambini i quali a differenza degli adulti non si saziano con il panorama . efficiente ilservizio bus per la spiaggia , eccezionale la serata di festa presso il riu gran canaria . scelta a nostro avviso errata e vacanza parzialmente rovinata . a paragone posso dire che il riu grancanaria dove abbiamo soggiornato tre anni fa e'stato completamente ristrutturato ed e' bellissimo

Hotel was excellent, very clean and bright. ROOM Room was cleaned 5 days a week, you were also given a pool towel and in room safe for FREE. There was a microwave, hob, kettle, fridge and toaster in room, handy as only self catering option avialable. There was little to no space to hang dresses etc, two small cabinets for everything else but we managed ok. There was only 1 mirror which was in the bathroom, could have dione with one in the room. Balcony was brilliant even though we were on the ground floor we were overlooking the town and sea views, also had Astroturf down so nice to walk on and a good table and chairs. Air con was very good. POOL Absolutely excellent position, same lovely views as from room. Pool was cool but as we were on the right hand side of the valley (looking towards the sea) it warmed up as had sun all day. Plenty of sunbeds, umbrella's and tables / chairs, no rush at all. Never ate at the pool bar but everything we saw looked very good. Unfortunately the pool bar closes around 5pm so needed to go out for drinks etc STAFF Reception staff very friendly and helpful LOCATION Set UP on the hillside, lovely views but was quite a walk down to resort centre, checked once and there was 850 footsteps registered on my Fitbit and this included nearly 190 stairs!! Taxis were available for approx 4 or 5 euros but we never needed one. All of the supermarkets are in the town - everything you could need, however there was a small shop in the hotel Monte Bello which was just across the road and they had fresh bread baking all day, As well as water, juices, milk at reasonable prices. RESORT When you've walked the walk you wont be disappointed, large selection of shops and bars and restaurants in both the new and old shopping centres which are next door to each other, would need another review to cover the available shopping experiences and dining options. Evening meals came in anywhere between 30 and 50 euros for the 2 of us - food and a drink. Harbour with beach was nice and approx 20 mins walk from hotel. Took a boat to Mogan Bay for the day just to see somewhere else. Will definitely go back for winter sun at some time in the future

    I stayed at this wonderful apartment hotel from 12.12.24 till 19.12 24.in fact I am still here. But I wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed my stay. The rooms were great and cleaned regularly and the balcony was so big.The food I have enjoyed and so much choice.The staff have all been brilliant and very helpful and friendly I would just like to give a special mention to the people in the dining room they went out of there way to be there for me and all the diners Frederico, Very, Alona,Joanna,Pablo, Raimon, and all the chefs in the kitchen they are a credit to the hotel.Also a mention for all the housekeeping lady's that cleaned my room and others. Thanks for a lovely time.Please make this available to the people I have mentioned as they certainly deserve the acknowledgement. Thank you. Melvyn Buckley. Yahoo Mail: Search, organise, conquer

Abbiamo soggiornato 2 settimane in questa struttura e ci siamo trovati davvero bene. Avevamo una suite select al 9 piano con vista sul porticciolo, la camera era grandissima 70 m2 o meglio l'appartamento, il letto era gigante ed era davvero comodo! La stanza era dotata di cucina, micro, frigo, insomma tutto ciò che ci serviva per fare le pappe alla nostra piccola, inoltre il bagno era dotato anche di fasciatoio per cambiare la bimba e questo non é così scontato! La terrazza con vista mare era semplicemente fantastica dalla quale si poteva godere di uno splendido tramonto. La struttura é dotata anche di una piccola palestra per potersi mantenere in forma. Il personale davvero gentile e super disponibile, un saluto speciale a Lola! Consiglio questa struttura a chi ha figli, l'unica pecca é che esiste solo la formula di b&b con la possibilità di pranzare nel bar della piscina o cenare nel ristorantino esterno. Sarebbe stata perfetta una formula full board.
