“Nice hotel, poor service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012 via mobile

people found this review helpful

Based on the reviews at several sites we decided to go to this hotel. To be honest we are a bit disappointed. The staff is definitely not motivated and it seems that service with a smile is not part of the package here. Quite depressing. Work to be done for the management of Rio Calma

In 2012 I would also expect internet to be internet. We read it was only in the lobby, but I think their router is for home use only. No capacity and we have asked to restart the connection for more then 10 times now. Frustrating.

Facilities like room, pool etc. are really nice. When the staff is motivated and annoying details are taken care of this place can indeed be rated with a 8. For now it is a poor 6 at most times of the day.

“gorgeous location”

amazing hotel, lovely architecture, nice rooms, brilliant view although the private beach not the nicest in the area. food was great, varied and based on a theme night. the entertainment a little bit tacky at times, spa very nice. the pools were great but you had to wake up well early to win the race for the best spot at the main pool.

nice beaches some 30-45 mins walk down south of the island. bus stop in town was hard to find but once there you can hop on, pay a small fare and be down the south coast in minutes.

Another R2 hotel along the coast had a much better location, surrounded by fab beaches; however we did not go inside so cannot comment on the interior.

two tennis courts, not too expensive, a mini golf and a small football pitch. a lot of entertainment at the pool side.

a nice place, would love to go back.

First time to fuerteventura, wish we hadn't had to leave after one week.
The hotel is beautifully layed out. I can highly recommend this place if you have children of any age. Although there were predominantly older folks the hotel offered lots of activities for kids. Lots of sports possible and I wish I had been in better shape since few seemed to take advantage of the tennis courts and other facilities.
The food was great. We ate way too much (buffet).
The staff were very dedicated and friendly. I had read comments that service is lacking but that was not our experience at all. They are probably aware of this reputation and are working hard to rid themselves of it.
The winter weather was magnificent, not hot mind you but very comfortable.
Yes, throngs of germans were there (not a problem unless you want to avoid them), but there were french and poles in good numbers and some brits as well.
We were thoroughly satisfied with the experience.

Room Tip: We allowed the receptionist to select our room and were not choosy, although keeping our 10-month ol...

“Best hotel I've stayed in for a while (and I stay in quite a few...!)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

Stayed as part of a package holiday on a half board deal. I can't think why you'd need to stay full board, as you can have a really good breakfast (buffet) and then you're sorted until your evening meal.
The hotel is epic! and being away from the town it is very quiet.
Staff are probably the best and most customer focussed I have come accross in many years.
Food is excellent quality, and being vegetarian, we had no problems with meals - plenty of fresh fruit and veg.
I cannot fault this hotel !
