Utterly fantastic. I couldn't fault this hotel and if you're thinking of going, go, that's all…read more If you're hesitating, here's why it rules: Location: If you are staying in Maspalomas, I think this hotel has the best location in the whole area. It is in first line to the beach, and right next to the mesmerizing sand dunes of Maspalomas. So you waste no time getting to the beach and back, and you can either get a beautiful spot right under the dunes, or even just rest in the stunning hotel palm gardens and then quickly run from them to the sea and back. The promenade with more nightlife is a short walk away. All inclusive: The level of the cuisine was consistently very high for every meal during the day. The breakfast, lunch and dinner buffets were fantastically rich, so you could always try something new without them getting repetitive. Most importantly, the food was always prepared to a high standard. The cuisine is a good mixture of Western and Mediterranean style cuisine, with plenty of good cuts of meat, seafood and vegetarian options available. Twice a week there is a theme night for dinner - we particularly enjoyed the one focusing solely on Canarian cuisine. Aside from the main meal times (which stretch for quite long, so you're not harshly restricted by them: breakfast 8-10.30, lunch 10-15.30, dinner either at 18:30 or 20:3024/7), there is always a variety of snacks/fruit etc available, so you could eat 24/7 if you wanted to. All inclusive includes both soft and hard alcohol and cocktails, and unlike some places, they are not skimpy on basic needs like water either, so you can just stock your room fridge with big bottles to take to the beach. Stunning premises: Riu Oasis - the hotel lives up to its name. It's a massive oasis of palm trees and beautifully sculpted palm gardens which give your entire holiday a very relaxing feel. You never have to be squeezed among a mass of tourists stuck together like sardines. The sunbeds and parasols and pleasantly scattered all around the gardens, so you simply find a tree you like to rest under, and enjoy your privacy and the feeling of intimacy. Rooms: are nice and comfy, with an included fridge, safety locker, and massive wardrobe space. It's especially nice to have a room facing the garden on the ground floor - there you have a front porch your own parasol and sunbeds right in front of your door to lounge on. Amenities: There is a small outdoor gym (a few cardio machines, couple of benches, lat pulldown machine, basic set of dumbbells up to 10 kg), an outdoor Jacuzzi, an indoor Jacuzzi and a sauna. Massages and hairdressing are available for extra charge. The pool is very nice for actual lap swimming - it doesn't have too much of an odd shape as it's popular these days, so you can keep track. You can get beach towels every day, and on the day when you check out, you will get spare towels and a spare room for half an hour if you need a later shower. There are two bars in the gardens, a playground for children, and many indoors entertainment areas. All staff is always very polite and helpful, and there's always someone speaking excellent English at least at the reception. Entertainment: the evening program was quite nice - nothing too tacky, usually just some pleasant singers. Definitely bearable for some starter drinks if you then want to head out ofr more fun into town. There seemed to be quite a lot of daily entertainment for children (but tucked away in a different part of gardens, so if that's what you worry about - you can easily spend a holiday here without running into many). Cons: there are not many, but two minor points - wifi in room is for extra charge, the free one in the lobby is quite slow. And on some evenings, you can book an a la carte dinner at the separate smaller international fusion restaurant instead of the buffet. While it's advertised as very high dining, I'd say that it wasn't of much higher quality than the buffet meals (which are nonetheless great) - it was just more beautifully arranged. So I'd just go there if I wanted the more intimate atmosphere, but otherwise preferred the main area.

Absolutely beautiful hotel in Gran Canaria. The grounds are well maintained and tastefully done…read more Came here for an event one night and had a great experience. The outdoor amenities were so well designed lots of people were taking pictures. The resort boosted 5 pools all over the complex, lots of outdoor bars.

Why not. This hotel is one of the nicer hotels. Rated a 4*, but prices at (if compared to London) a 2*. That's Las Palmas for ya! Nice and cheap... but better quality. The rooms are modern and lovely. The views (if you get a balcany facing the ocean) had gorgeous views over the beach. I think for a smaller room, costs are about 50 euros. But I get the feeling looking at the hotel pictures, that the standard rooms are still pretty big. We got a super large room for 100 euros. PS: Free wifi ============================ GOOGLE TRANSLATE De una idea tonta, yo y unos amigos decidimos alojarnos en este hotel porque nosotros queríamos tomar un montón de alcohol en un hotel con vista al mar. Y en todos, vino a 30 euros por persona. ¿Por qué no. Este hotel es uno de los hoteles más bonitos. Catalogado con 4 estrellas, pero los precios en el (si se compara con Londres) un 2 *. Eso es Las Palmas para ti! Bonito y barato ... pero de mejor calidad. Las habitaciones son modernas y encantadoras. Los puntos de vista (si tienes una balcany frente al mar) tenía preciosas vistas de la playa. Creo que para una habitación más pequeña, los costos son alrededor de 50 euros. Pero tengo la sensación de ver las fotos del hotel, que las habitaciones estándar son todavía bastante grandes. Nos dieron una habitación grande estupenda de 100 euros. PS: Gratis wifi

I stayed here just for the night dying to get out of the Las Palmas and into the desert. The location is beautiful with views of the famous sand dunes from the hotel. They have 2 pools. and one of the pool have those spa pressure hose/pump thingy. Super cool! The pool were lovely, the deck chairs nicely spaced so I didn't feel crowded. The rooms were lovely with a nice private balcony. The hotel grounds were beautiful as well as the hotel itself. And greeted with champaign while waiting to be checked in. It really is a spectacular hotel. The staff are ultra friendly. Since Gran Canarians are known if their rudeness basically making London seem like great customer service, so I always have to know when I receive customer service. Every one who worked there said "hola" to me. Even the lady who cleans rooms. I had to look around... was she talking to me? People on this island don't say hola to me. he he. We opted in for the all inclusive. the food was good, not excellent but good. It seems to be geared more to the German pallet. But maybe not having excellent food meant that I only went up to the buffet 3 times rather than 10. Bonus! I will definitely be making a return here when I need to get away! I feel that 1 day wasn't enough! ========== google translate ================= ¿Qué puedo decir ... wow wow wow! Es un hotel adorable. Debo haber conseguido un precio de ventas porque es realmente no cuesta mucho. Me alojé aquí sólo por la noche se muere por salir de la de Las Palmas y en el desierto. La ubicación es preciosa, con vistas a las famosas dunas de arena del hotel. Tienen 2 piscinas. y uno de la piscina tienen aquellos manguera de presión spa / bomba cosita. Super cool!

Desde Gran Canarios se sabe si su mala educación, básicamente, lo que Londres parece un gran servicio al cliente, así que siempre hay que saber cuando recibo el servicio al cliente. Todos los que trabajaban allí dijo "hola" a mí. Incluso la señora que limpia las habitaciones. Tuve que mirar a su alrededor ... estaba hablando a mí? La gente en esta isla no dicen hola a mí. he he. Optamos por el todo incluido. la comida era buena, no excelente, pero bueno. Parece que está más orientado a la plataforma alemana. Pero a lo mejor no tener una excelente comida significaba que sólo fui al buffet 3 veces en lugar de 10. Bonus! Definitivamente voy a estar haciendo un regreso aquí cuando necesito escapar! Siento que 1 día no fue suficiente!

We was allocated a room on the 4th floor by the middle lift but you could not hear any noise but it was useful for getting straight down to the pool in the mornings. The apartments are ok. They are very basic and could do with a make over but it has everything you need to be honest, the only thing we could have done with is air con but if you leave your balcony door open you do get a breeze through the whole apartment. The pool was great and you didn't have to get up at the crack of dawn to get a Sunbed, We had lunch by the pool one day which was nice as well. We met some lovely people at this hotel and everyone who works here seem to love their job, everyone is really friendly and we are booking to come again for next year!
