Our stay at Riu Palace Melonares was phenomenal! The staff went above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience, and the food was exceptional, offering a good variety. However, there were some minor issues with the accessibility of the room we stayed in and an outrageous charge for the room safe. Despite these small hiccups, our overall experience was overwhelmingly positive, making us eager to return.

This hotel offers an exceptional experience with fantastic service and high-quality food that truly exceeded my expectations. The lobby is stunning, and while I found the room decor somewhat cold, it was still spacious and comfortable. The location is ideal for exploring nearby attractions. However, it can get quite busy in the evenings, which may detract from the dining experience.

I had a lovely holiday overall, but there were a few disappointments that kept it from being a perfect stay. The hotel staff was welcoming, and the pools were fantastic, but I found the half-board dining options repetitive, and some amenities felt below five-star standards. Our room had a strong smell that was quite off-putting, and the service regarding late check-out was lacking. This hotel offers a decent experience, but I feel there are better options out there for the price.
