Hotel Riu Palace Oasis

Impressive. I do not have enough words to describe the experience at this hotel. They welcomed us very kindly with a complimentary drink and stored our suitcases while they prepared the room, since we arrived earlier than the check-in time. The room was spectacular, very large. The size of the shower is surprising; I dare say it is larger than many common apartment bathrooms. The only \"negative\" point was the view from the room, of the parking lot, which actually became the advantage of having no noise and the room being out of the sun all day. During my stay, it was my birthday, and the hotel had a very nice gesture to congratulate me. Very grateful for that. The pools are fantastic. Very clean (just like the whole hotel), and quiet. I agree with other reviews regarding the complaint about reserving lounge chairs: when we went down at 9 to have breakfast, 1/3 of the lounge chairs had towels on them and the pool was deserted. I think they should monitor that; I have seen lounge chairs blocked all day without anyone using them, and at peak hours it is difficult to get a spot in the sun. The staff is wonderful. The service is very pleasant, always with a smile and kind words. I have saved the best for last: the food. I had never been to a hotel like this in my life. The buffet is spectacular, the quality of the dishes is unbeatable. Also noteworthy is the option to dine at the other two restaurants, by reservation, included in the half-board. The menus they offer are incredible. I have no doubt that I will return to this hotel. Every cent invested in this vacation has been worth it!

The hotel was awesome, not only because of the location, but also because of the diverse food, the cleanliness, and the always friendly staff. The hotel has three pools and six floors. The first floor has swim-up pools. In the evening, there is a buffet restaurant and two à la carte restaurants, which, however, are not open every day. The buffet is very diverse and not the same every evening, so there was a lot of variety. The rooms are cleaned in the morning and the towels are changed in the evening. Although the hotel is so large, neither the pools nor the restaurants are overcrowded, as everything is very spread out. The grounds leave a unique impression not only because of their size, but also because of the huge palm garden. Events take place on the stage every evening, so you can always listen to great music. In addition, one or two TUI employees are in the lobby or the bar every day, who can provide a lot of information about activities and places. We also sought their advice, so we booked a car for three days to drive around the island. There are also good jet ski providers and catamaran tours (Blue Spirit, which was ours). It is also very nice to walk along the promenade in the evening. You can view the menus and events through the Riu app. In addition, you can have a digital door key installed in the app so that you do not always have to carry the room card with you. Overall, it was a very nice vacation, which was made much better by the hotel and the great impressions.
