Hotel Riu Paraiso Lanzarote - All Inclusive

“Didn’t want to come home”

Absolutely amazing Hotel and staff, food amazing, drinks fabulous and location just right, plenty of sunbeds available but obviously don’t leave it until mid afternoon to try and get one.

Absolutely amazing Hotel and staff, food amazing, drinks fabulous and location just right, plenty of sunbeds available but obviously don’t leave it until mid afternoon to try and get one. Cleaners and maids don’t stop and a credit to the hotel as well are the bar staff. Atmosphere great and that’s all down to the entertainment staff who don’t stop. On arrival our room was upgraded so all good, room quite spacious with big balcony. So overall what a great week.

“Second and last visit.”

Our second time at this hotel and it was slightly different to what I remember.. We requested adjoining rooms (if possible) but we could not be granted this due one being a family room. The hotel advised they had upgraded my parents for free and they were next door to us. We had rooms 045/046 … more

Our second time at this hotel and it was slightly different to what I remember.. We requested adjoining rooms (if possible) but we could not be granted this due one being a family room. The hotel advised they had upgraded my parents for free and they were next door to us. We had rooms 045/046 The family room was not a family room. It was simple an apartment with a bedroom (two singles pushed together) air con which I don’t normally use but had to on this occasion due to the heat and my nieces had the sofa bed pulled out to make a Z bed…. This meaning…… nowhere to sit, the children paying the same price as paying adult but get the most I comfiest bed but furthermore, there was no air con in this part of the apartment… Shower was ample for what we needed and placing the towels on the floor/ in the shower they were kindly changed… There was a mini fridge and you can get bottles of water from the lobby bar… The living room area is the apartment was very musty…. There are two pool area. They class the oblong pool down within the old part of the hotel is very strict with the life guards. Your jog permitted lilos balls actually enjoying yourself the top part of the hotel two square pools and this is where the Riu entertainment is…. One part of this your permitted to have fun… The food was fine different specialist every night however three members of our family did unfortunately get food poisoning… but Overall ample foods for everybody. What let us down and what we can’t remember the last time.. SELF SERVICE DRINKS unless alcohol which are made out of a machine.. the drinks become very flat very quickly and are not cold. Several other restaurants you can book, gym is very standard and a shop on site A gate at the bottom entrance straight across the road to the beach and only a few minutes walk to the main strip. We have been a couple of times but would not return

“No inflatable’s or balls in the pool.”

Most staff were friendly, 1 of the life guards was so rude and didn’t talk to anyone, shouting at guest no balls or inflatables in the pool, next day with a different life guard you can 🤔 so confusing and annoying. There are 3 pools at this hotel so just make 1 for swimming, the other 2 for playing… more

Most staff were friendly, 1 of the life guards was so rude and didn’t talk to anyone, shouting at guest no balls or inflatables in the pool, next day with a different life guard you can 🤔 so confusing and annoying. There are 3 pools at this hotel so just make 1 for swimming, the other 2 for playing around and having fun would be an idea. Also there was a man & wife at the hotel who had sunbeds on the edge of the swimming pool (they picked a fine spot) who stood up and shouted at anyone who splashed a-bit of water near them, this was witnessed by myself on a lot of occasions, he was so rude and aggressive, and seemed to get away with this behaviour everyday, even in front of the staff.. most days around the main 2 pools were stressful with these people, we ended up going out most days on the 2nd week, who goes on holiday to have this type of stress, so beware before booking. The entertainment staff work so hard during the day, and by the way! on some days they put giant inflatables in the pools and both children & adults 🤩 had fun. ( so no inflatables or not) it was great watching everyone have fun. These staff also preformed the evening entertainment, they honestly do not stop. Food was good for all inclusive but if you get the chance go the Asian restaurant, the food here was lovely. 1st room we were put in had a musty smell, after 3 days I couldn’t take it anymore and was changed without any hassle to a lovely fresh smelling room. Overall cleanliness of this hotel is great and what we expected with a Rui hotel.
