Riviera Vista

Well this hotel is set in a lovely location, slightly up at the top of a hill end of the road. Might be a little challenging for people who are less mobile but still manageable in any case. There is a spar, shops and a couple of restaurants in the mini centre just at the bottom of the road from hotel. There is a beach literally on the hotel doorstep but there is also Amadores beach which is beautiful a short bus ride away and even quicker in a taxi (€1.20 bus €5.50 taxi) the hotel is very clean and plenty of sun loungers around for all to use. The breakfast is ok enough to set you up for the day. The rooms are clean and spacious with a nice sea view balcony. The staff are very pleasant and happy to help and also polite. Overall this establishment is well worth the money and I’d come back again.

Probably didnt do enough research before booking, but this hotel is at the top of a steep hill. My husband struggled to walk it. Very nice hotel, & very pleasant, helpful staff. Don’t go there if you want night life. There is no bar or entertainment. There are 4 bars/restaurants at the bottom of the hill, but all closed on Mondays. One has live music at the weekend. Also, there are no English channels on the T.V. The beach has no facilities, ie. no toilets or refreshments. Not too impressed with the food. Lack of choice & no labels to say what the items were, breakfast always tepid. Also thought the towels were poor. So thin! Good shower & hot water Lovely pool & pool area.

We have stayed here twice in the last year, each time with our children and our eldest son has since returned with his girlfriend, the rooms are amazing, clean modern with great air conditioning. The cleaning and reception staff are amazing and work hard to keep everyone happy. I have to be honest and say that we have found the restaurant and pool bar staff rude both times we have stayed unfortunately. However this doesn't spoil our holiday. The pool is lovely with great views of the beach and bay below, plays del cura is quiet which we like with a goose shop, beach and a few bars all nice, not far from Porto Rico if you want something more lively for about 5 euros in a taxi , we will stay again most definitely.

This hotel is very, very nice. It’s clean, the straff is really nice, and the view over the ocean is extremely beautiful. They have a range of nice, different spots for the sunbeds, and a pool bar with a lot of good options. We had a lovely stay, and would absolutely recommend booking here if you want to stay in Playa Del Cura.

Apartment one bedroom as advertised on the picture when you book was finally a big room with 3 beds. We kindly asked the reception to relocate but they pretend that the hotel is full and that they don't have the booking system of the hotel in their hands. The manager is not available, neither physically or by phone since 4 days ...

On my first trawl of reviews I rejected this hotel because of various negative review comments. However when I couldn’t find anywhere else suitable I went for this. And it was far better than I expected. Our 2 bedroom suite (1106) was enormous, with a large balcony which even in January had the sun on it most of the day with a view over the bay. Bed was super comfortable. Kitchen area not suitable for proper self-catering but with fridge, microwave, kettle, cutlery and crockery it had everything we needed. We had no problems over towels or cleaning which some reviews mentioned. The pool and pool area was very nice, with a pool bar. It was deep enough to swim and warm enough in January. The life guard Omar took a lot of trouble to make sure my wife was OK while in the pool and getting in and out. Parking has been a problem for some as there is only public parking, often full. Less of a problem for us as my wife is a Blue Badge holder, although even then the 2 spaces were sometimes full, but it was always possible to find somewhere within a few minutes walk. Could be a problem in high season. Breakfast was generally good once I found microwave to compensate for defects in overhead food heaters., with plenty of choice and good coffee. We had buffet dinner twice and it was good value but starters and fish generally more interesting than meat dishes. Afters were very nice, with selection of ice-cream. The drinks however were expensive but this seemed to be true everywhere. Staff were all helpful and pleasant. Access to the beach via the lift was a great bonus and the walkable promenade is about 500yds long. All in all a very pleasant stay at a reasonable price.
