Riolavitas Spa & Resort Hotel

Really good facilities and good food. Staff were very friendly and kind

Not a 5 star No service in restaurant Rude staff and other holiday makers Pictures shows toiletries, but all you get is a soap dispenser Staff take food and drink before finishing Trying to get a table is a joke Dirty facilities, pool area Not sure about all ultra inclusive Popcorn 2 euro, candy floss 2 euro Milkshakes and drinks at vitamin bar from 3 Euro Ice creams in the evening 3 Euro No entertainment at night in the hotel, have to walk to beach, starts at 10pm. No fans, lots of guests using sheesa pipes, very uncomfortable place to sit. Would not return Aircon in restaurant drips all over you and ceilings mouldy

I like this place very much. The swimming pool is too if the range for somebody wants to swim. There is the main pool but there is also side pool od 50 meters length very good for swimming Food in the restaurant is as usually good as in other Turkish all inclusive resorts. Plenty of different meals a lot if barbecued lamb, fish beef. All day ice cream if you have children and beautiful a la cart restaurant with very pleasant hosts.

The Team is amazing, the Location is fantastic and all inclusive feels really all inclusive. Mike the German Manager is an amazing Guy. We played a few rounds of games together and had a lot to laugh. Greet him if you get the chance and have a nice Holiday here!

We spent our holiday here and overall it was a decent experience. • The food was not great, but it was okay — you can always find something to eat. There were many types of pastries and pies, which were very good. Fruits all the time. The desserts were not really to my taste, mostly creamy and with lots of colors • The beach is about a 5–10 minute walk from the hotel (nuce walkway) but they also provide a car to take guests there. • The beach itself has sand with some small stones. However, the entrance into the water is not very comfortable. • During our stay, there were a lot of waves, which made swimming a bit difficult. • The small pool for kids was always very cold, so nobody really used it. Luckily, the other pools have shallow areas suitable for children. • One negative aspect: there were a lot of mosquitoes. We all got bitten a lot. • Cleaning everyday. Hotel and rooms clean. • Shows organized every evening after dinner. Overall, it wasn’t perfect, but we still managed to enjoy our holiday.

Firstly as other reviews say this is not 5 star. I never usually go for 5 star but got a fab deal and thought id treat myself and my 14 year old daughter. We got there at around 5:30am and wanted to get a couple of hours in. 6:30am was woken by loads of noise. Rang reception and we must have been under the bins of another hotel as it was the bin men. This went on for around 20 mins We headed to the main pool area, Not enough places for sunbeds therefore people are going onto the side which is full of dust which turns to mud when wet then getting into the pool. Kids had dropped ice screams and no one bothered to pick them up. The pool area was quite dirty. But a lot of this was down to the other guests not putting stuff in the bin! From then on we decided to go to the beach. So much more relaxing. Didnt matter what time we went we always got a bed. The beach bar was pleasant too. Staff were always lovely to us. Especially the towel man in the spa. Always made an effort to talk to us when changing our towels. We changed rooms on the second day. We upgraded to a swim up. People saying not to waste money as sun isn't there but we were going to beach till around 230 then heading back to room for the sun coming to our pool. So relaxing and the sun was there till around 6 on our balcony. There is a nice area of shops and a couple of bars/restaurants and short bus ride away. Id say 5 mins on the number 11 bus straight outside hotel and we never waited more than 2 minutes for them. Number 10 back where you get dropped off. So easy. The mini bar is stocked daily. With bottles of fanta, coke, water and ours had 2 bottles of efes. The rooms are clean and modern. The only thing I could complain about there is nothing to get rid of the water from the pool on the balcony and is very slippy. As for the restaurant it was mayhem. There was never a table. Once I got one put our drinks down and went for food... come back our forks were gone and one of our chairs. Now surely people could see by the full drinks that someone was sitting there. Its just rude! However, food was nice enough and there is something for everyone. Back to the room. I have to say it was so noisy. Guests are selfish. Kids running and screaming. We were also next door to a staff only fire door. From around 7am staff just went in and out of the door letting it slam shut! Def no chance of a lie in (room 1115) my daughter still managed. Dont ask me how! Can't really comment on the entertainment as only went a couple of times. The vitamin bar is so good but is separate from the all inclusive. Worth it though. Their mocktails were amazing. We got one every day. Big shout out to Huseyin at the water sports at beach. As you walk down to the beach his place is to the left hand side. Myself and my daughter done the speedboat trip to side and we also went parasailing. All of the staff there are so lovely! They also help you get on the raft to get onto the boat. Watch out for their do
