    Great holiday again

    rating22 Apr 2026

    Another great holiday, its the only hotel we have returned to over & over. The staff are outstanding & want to make sure everyone has the best time they certainly go above & beyond other RIU Hotel's we have stayed in, management should be very proud of all the hard working staff at the hotel.They have so much choice in food they cater for everyone I'm gluten free & always found plenty of choice sometimes to much ha ha. They have a wide range of drinks & self service for wine & larger rather than go to the bar.No need to get up at stupid o clock either for a sun bed your on holidays relax & enjoy.There is a wide range of activities for everyone & a gym to work off your extra food & drink .Friday RIU party night staff work even harder for everyone to enjoy & are great fun for all ages they have a neon or white week.All lounge area's & your rooms are all kept clean with everything you need in your bedroom & bathroom's also have a good hair dryer.Can't wait to return again for New Year countdown has begun x

    Honest Review

    rating17 Apr 2026

    Our room was beautiful with a massive balcony of the sea view, the food was beautiful and plenty of variety (food hack tip if you like croissants filled with Nutella take the top off and fill them :) ) entertainment staff really good and helpful, reception was helpful, polite and the rooms are cleaned every day.. this hotel deserves more credit than the stupid low star review merchants who when you click on other reviews give poor ratings.

    Could do better

    rating10 Apr 2026

    Disappointed in hotel though it would not take much to make it much better.We had a double family room which was good size and reasonably equipped. No noise issues with room. Main buffet was disappointing and the pool snack bar pathetic. "speciality" restaurants were better but inconsistent we went to the Italian and Asian twice, first visit to both were fine but second visits were disappointing. Drinks via dispensers, wine awful cava was the only drinkable option. Cocktails third rate, pre mixed. Entertainment mediocre. Pools all 1.1 metres deep, could do with some deeper parts. Staff very friendly, helpfull and everything kept clean. As a tip, if you want to. book the other restaurants check on the hotel app a day or two before you want to go in the morning before breakfast. If there is no availability on the app, ask the person at the entry to breakfast as they often can get you in via a ticket.Not a big resort and beach awful. Online Reputation Management, Owner at Hotel Riu Buenavista, responded to this review Dear 9grahamc,Thank you for taking the time to provide us your feedback on your stay at our property.We are truly sorry to read of your dissatisfaction and we never wish for our guests feel any discomfort.We have noted your review to ensure we can work on improving our service delivery and offerings at the hotel accordingly.

    A lovely holiday

    rating09 Apr 2026

    We stayed for 10 days as a family of seven, ranging in age from 8 to 60, and we absolutely loved it. We all had an amazing time. The facilities, rooms, food, drinks and activities were all excellent—everything was well-maintained and in great condition.What really stood out was the staff. From housekeeping to the restaurant team, animation staff, and reception, everyone made us feel genuinely welcome. They were all incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay.The animation team did a fantastic job. There was a great variety of activities including fitness classes, football, basketball, fun pool games, and enjoyable evening entertainment. They truly made the experience special, especially for the kids. The white party they organised was a highlight.We really couldn’t fault this hotel. A special shout-out to Pablo from the animation team—he was brilliant with the kids and made a big impression on our family.If I had to be very critical, I’d suggest having football activities every day. It’s a great way for older kids to socialise and make friends.
