Our customers are once again able to enjoy their holidays! As you know, many RIU hotels are already open and ready to welcome you after these difficult months.\u00a0 We are really excited about being able to greet all those guests who visit us year after year and, of course, those who are staying with us for the first time. That’s why we’ve decided to learn about their experience first-hand and to tell you about it in this post so you can see that safety is perfectly compatible with having fun.<\/p>\n

Riu Palace Meloneras<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This hotel in Gran Canaria welcomed Zastrow and his wife from Germany in July. Although it is not the first time that they have stayed with RIU, this year was special due to the uncertainty provoked by the implementation of safety protocols and new rules. Even so, according to Zastrow, \u201ceverything here is totally safe\u201d. He told us how happy he was that these safety measures had been introduced in a discreet and sensitive way. He also stressed that in his opinion, apart from a few minor details, everything remains the same. For us, the most important thing was to read that our customer service and support levels continue to be excellent.<\/p>\n

What we take from this is the fact they were able to fully enjoy the holiday they deserve!<\/p>\n

Riu Costa del Sol<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Heylens and Dhaeseleer, a married couple who have been visiting RIU hotels since 1987, spent their holiday at the Hotel Riu Costa del Sol<\/a> in Torremolinos (Malaga). They tell us that they always come back because \u201ca holiday with RIU represents guaranteed satisfaction\u201d and what they like best is the heartfelt quality of service which remains constant despite the \u201cnew normal\u201d. The most important thing for us is that they said they felt safe during their holiday, a factor that enabled them to enjoy their well-earned rest to the full.<\/p>\n

And naturally we hope they will continue to trust in the chain for many years to come.<\/p>\n

Riu Playacar<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Five families from Mexico and the United States who stayed at the Hotel Riu Playacar<\/a> in Playa del Carmen agreed to share their experience with us. All of them agree about two things: safety and good customer service. The five families were first-timers with RIU and they were able to find out first-hand that family fun is guaranteed! Another thing they wanted to highlight was the attentiveness of the hotel staff and, a vital factor for any holiday, the sense of relaxation they felt throughout their entire stay in the hotel.<\/p>\n

    Riu Palace Costa Rica<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Our last stop is in Costa Rica with James. He said he was rather anxious setting out on his journey as he didn’t know what situation he would find himself in and how safe his holiday would be. However, no sooner did he get to the hotel than all his nervousness disappeared and he felt totally safe!\u00a0He was also able to see first-hand that all of the different areas were clearly indicated and that, amongst other measures, face masks were being used correctly . Ah! And he also made some very positive comments about the friendliness of the staff and the quality of the all-inclusive product.<\/p>\n

    We were delighted to know that James was able to spend his holiday feeling relaxed and able to enjoy himself with no worries whatsoever!<\/p>\n

    We would like to thank all the guests who feature in today’s post for agreeing to give us feedback on their stay. As you know, we believe that your opinion, along with all those who visit us year after year, is a key factor in enabling us to provide you with the best possible service. If you are one of those who asks yourself if safety can be combined with enjoyment during a holiday we hope that this post, with testimonials from our guests, is able to demonstrate that holidays with RIU continue to be the same as always and that increased safety benefits both you and our employees. Go for it and come to see us!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Our hotels are ready with all of the hygiene and safety measures in place to be able to welcome you this holiday season.
