Me and my wife went to the altamadores for the second time and its still a fantastic resort ..its a reasonably small apartment hotel but would fully recommend it as a great relaxing hotel with everything you need . The food is great and the serve yourself drinks bar is such a easy option with a great selection of local spirit ,wine and beer...the resort of amadores is beautiful and with a stunning beach which you can see as the terrace looks over the resort...staff are friendly and the manager was very helpful with a minor problem with our room and moved us to a much better one....the atmosphere of this resort and the the friendliness of the guests and staff will keep me going back as soon as we can ...it may be a 3 star but it feels so much more

Went here last year and it was honestly one of the best places we ever stayed in. We love Puerto Rico and to get an apartment of this quality for the prices they charge is just insane. Last year the peace and quiet was amazing and I think that the clients who visit this hotel understand the etiquette of it. This year however it was different. There were a lot of “chavs” abd I don’t mean that in a disrespectful way, it’s just that when you get a 4 star quality apartment for such a low price you’ll inevitably get people who really shouldn’t be staying there. They’d normally be in the bablu but the opportunity to stay in such a fantastic apartment for not much more you can understand it. People taking calls on loud speaker from the UK finding out aunty Norma has got crabs or calling home to see how little Johnny has just come off nappies at the age of 3 is all well and good but it seemed like it had to be taken on loud speaker not to me too the viz comic friends who decided to put their loud speaker on in the roof terrace when you can hear a pin drop up there.what we aloud noticed is that there are so many smokers there, literally everyone smoking and couching their guts up, it’s disgusting I guess it boils down to peoples lack of self awareness and respect for fellow holiday makers. It was just a bad week I guess but as far as the apartments go you can’t fault them and in all honesty the prices are too cheap. One criticism from last year is the pool/snack bar. Last year there was definitely a more of a hub for people to congregate, happy hour etc. this year it seemed cordoned off. No camaraderie at all, no focal point. It’s just my opinion. One last issue for us is that we get an early flight so we are at the hotel at 11am and totally understand that we can’t check in early but after prior warning it would be great to have the option to get in the room earlier rather than the standard 3pm check in. It doesn’t detract from the fact that we will be back again no doubt. The apartment are fantastic, possibly the best in Puerto Rico.

Stayed here for 4 nights, 22.10.24 - 26.10.24. I've stayed at these apartments a couple of times before about 10 years ago, both in Sun Suites and the Terrazamar section. This time, I booked a room in Terrezamar, which is the lower section and was allocated room 207. Rooms remain a good size and whilst the kitchen cupboards and bathroom unit are the original units the furniture, beds, dinning table are all new and modern, with AC and digital safe provided at no extra cost. All balconies are a great size with modern patio furniture including two full size sunloungers, which is good as you get the sun all day at these apartments due to location, so if you fancy a quiet day you can still chill in your own apartment and not miss a minute of sunshine. Housekeeping is provided every other day and the lady who looked after our room was great, she was very friendly and when we came back to our room to find it flooded as the boiler had burst she wasted no time in sorting everything out and got maintenance straight to the room who replaced the boiler. We would see her most mornings as she started work on level 2 and she would ask us if everything was still OK, so we'd tell her ”no piscina today” which got a thumbs up reply. I didn't get her name, but she is definitely an asset to the hotel. The pool bar is fine, with reasonable prices for food and drink. Our return flight was a late one, so we managed to keep our room on for €30. The hotel is in a good location with the commercial centre with all the bars and restaurants, literally a stones throw away, which could be seen and heard from our apartment. Noise didn't bother us as we were out late most nights anyway, but if you closed your patio door, you could not hear anything, and if you're staying on a higher level, it's unlikely you'll hear anything. As mentioned I've stayed here before and probably wouldn't stay anywhere else when visiting Puerto Rico again.

Good value hotel, very clean, decent location. Don't need much more than that. Can't understand why there are so many poor reviews. Usually I'd filter out any hotels with less than 4.5 TripAdvisor stars. However, this place surpassed my expectations and was significantly cheaper than others nearby, that ive also stayed in. Plenty of bed available during my stay at the pool. Pretty mixed spread of guests between British and Spanish. Steep hill to walk to the hotel, but so is anywhere in Peurto Rico. One issue - i had an early check out this morning and the reception was shut. So I couldn't get to main entrance for my bus. Had to go out the front and walk a few hundred yards up hill. An explanation of that would have been nice upon arrival. Also unable to check in to room until 3pm on arrival, which isn't ideal when you're dressed for the UK and been up since early morning.

From the moment we walked in to reception we were really impressed. Checked in without any problems and up to our room on the 5th floor. Apartment was really spacious and comfortable and we had a view of the pool and marina area. Everything was clean and well-presented. The pool was a bit cold but we got used to it and I’ve now ticked an infinity pool off my bucket list! Staff were friendly and helpful. Food at the Monday bbq was brilliant and we at one lunch at the pool bar which was also delicious. I didn’t want to leave and I certainly want to return!

Stayed for 1 week in the middle of September with my fiancé, we’re both in our 30’s and had the best little break away here. We booked this holiday last minute, neither of us had never been to Gran Canaria before and we have nothing negative to say about our stay at the Maracaibo. The weather was perfect, sunshine everyday and not too hot. After reading all the reviews I am very glad we decided to book one of the Deluxe One Bedroom Apartments. As this just gave us a little more space in the apartment and we had a fantastic view of the swimming pool and the beach. HOTEL: - friendly/helpful hotel staff. - good aircon unit - rooms get cleaned regularly and towels changed daily. - hotel great location, high enough up for a fantastic sea view but not too high up that we couldn’t walk down to the beach and town everyday. (Roughly took us about 6/7 minutes to walk down to the centre. - nice size pool area, plenty of beds, reasonably priced food and drinks at the on-site restaurant. We didn’t spend much time at the pool as to be honest it was a little quiet for us, a little bit of subtle radio or music in the background would be quite a nice addition. BEACHES: - we only used Puerto Rico beach once but spent most days at Amadores Beach. As personally we thought beach had a bit more to it, clearer waters, more spacious, lots of beach restaurants and bars to choose from. In a taxi from the hotel took around 6 minutes and was about €7 one way. Or sometimes we walked directly there or back from the hotel which is a nice coastal walk and took around 30 minutes. We visited Anfi beach too, which is also a short taxi ride away, although a beautiful beach we preferred Amadores beach. Anfi seemed more overcrowded and had more rules and restrictions regarding playing beach games etc. - on the last day we spent the day at Amadores Beach Club. I would highly recommend doing this as a little treat. We paid €40 for the two of us. This included a large rounded beach bed facing the sea, an alcoholic or soft beverage each and full access of the pool and spa facilities in the beach club all day. We also ate in the restaurant there and the food and cocktails were amazing. AREA: - about 30/40 minutes from the airport. If you haven’t got transport included in your holiday DONT make the mistake we made and jump straight in a taxi from the airport to the hotel. We got completely ripped off and paid about $70. We later found out you can get a bus to and from airport for around €7 each and there is bus stop RIGHT OUTSIDE the hotel. (Silly us for not doing our research). - after hiring a car one day and driving round different parts of Gran Canaria we were happy really we decided to stay in Puerto Rico. It was the perfect area to be in for couples holiday in my opinion. Close to numerous beaches and lots of bars and restaurants to choose from. RESTAURANTS/BARS - a lot of people mention the Shopping Centre Puerto Rico on the reviews, we did go in there most ni

For a studio apartment the room is really spacious with a decent bathroom and a good balcony offering lovely views over Puerto Rico and the sea. Rooms very clean and well looked after by the staff. You get a list of days room will be cleaned and towels changed so make sure to read this. Air con is just OK for me - I didn't think it was working at 100% but guy on reception dealt with my issue without any fuss. Staff everywhere are friendly and good at their jobs. Beds are two singles pushed together (as often they are). Room is well equipped if you want to cook for yourself and shower was lovely. We were on floor 3 just below pool level. No issues with noise and steps up right outside our room. Pool area is big enough and has great views. We had breakfast there on one day which Ibfelt was overpriced compared to the town for what you get but it saves you a walk/taxi. Happy hour from 12-1 with 2 for 1 drinks is a great touch and very popular. You arr high up but not as high as some. Walk down to commercial centre and/or beach is not particularly daunting and there a number of different routes. We found the best to be left around one bend of the road then down two sets of steps and you are at the back of the PR shopping centre. You can ise the lft in the montebello across the road (actually split lifts, first down to pool level on floor 5 and then 2nd around the corner takes you down a bit of the way but still a bit to go. You can also just follow the road down the bus station or turn right after first set of steps and get to station as well which is a quicker way to the beach. Taxis are plentiful and cheap - takes about 3 mins to taxi from centre to hotel for between 3.85 and 5 depending on time of day/night and whether you tip. For fitness enthisiasts the steps and winding roads are great. You can also run/walk out to playa des amadoes from PR harbour along a very pleasant coastal walk.

Vistamar is in a great position with sea views from virtually everywhere in the hotel. Fantastic place to catch the sunsets. Was slightly worried about the stomach bug reviews on here but we were all ok. Hotel is very clean and we never heard anyone complaining about being ill from the food. For us personally not enough chicken and beef on the menu. A lot of pork and liver which we are not keen on. Burgers, hot dogs and sandwiches available all night in the sports bar which is great for after a night out. Would say the smoking areas need to be more clearly marked. I was told off in quite an aggressive manner for smoking on the balcony in the sports bar by staff member. Overall a great hotel with friendly staff. I have received an email from riu since returning saying they are going to take 400 euros from my credit card for a no show???i have sent them my confirmation sign in email i received but have had no reply from them so i am left worrying that they are going to take another 400 euros from my credit card.
