Hotel Riu Palace Santa Maria - All Inclusive
Hotel Riu Palace Santa Maria - All Inclusive"Ich hatte zwei Kakerlaken bei mir im Zimmer. Die Klimaanlage hat laut gequietscht und wurde auf Nachfrage nicht repariert. Das Gym war nicht gut ausgestattet. Das Restaurant war gut. Der Strand wunderschön!"
"I unfortunately landed during the storm so the hotel was flooded and the room too in the end but I was able to be moved to a floor up. Following this my stay was very pleasant. Staff were very helpful. Food was good and very good location to beach and shops. They cleared the water quickly and fixed the hotel up in no time. I think I was quite unlucky to land on that day but they deffo made up for it during the stay. Rooms are a bit dated but that gave it character."

"My stay was pleasant. Hotel was clean and the buffet options were incredible. However, I did encounter some staff that were attempting to exploit me. Vanisa and Soraya in particular exhibited poor customer service. Vanisa was trying to charge me higher dollar rate than the bank rate. I later discovered that this was a tactic on foreigners to exploit them financially. Rosemary showed great customer service. She was very honest, polite and represented the hotel with class."
"Great location, clean and tidy, and the breakfast had a good selection. The air conditioner was quiet and the “do not disturb/clean room” door handle tag was a cute touch."
