Beautiful complex could not fault it in any way, maybe if I had one criticism it would be the hotel caters for a slightly older person bet that’s it food staff & grounds were all amazing.
If you come to this resort you will come back over and over again, the food is superb, the staff is what will bring you back! From the gardening crew (Andres) that will great you every time you walk by to the amazing team of Restaurant managers Carrera, Germano, Patrik, Felix, and Herrera and our superb server Manolo, you became friends. You feel so sad to leave that you have to return to be pampered again! Amazing management. My housekeeper Rosario, I wish I could take her with me! They change your towels 2 times a day and will make your bed if you had a nap in the afternoon! Really amazing

5 star? No!
Impressive lobby
Nice garden with pools
Very good dinner buffet
Average breakfast buffet
Not bad rooms but like any B&B or 3 star hotel
Apart of the lobby and the dinner buffet presentation nothing else can reminds you are in a real 5 star hotel.
The high cost is mutch higher than the hotel services. If the only you are looking is to relax around the pool you can do it with less money in many other hotels in the area
The staff is always friendly but the hotel needs improvements. This isn't a hotel for 5 stars

Needs upgrading, expensive friendly staff
This was a 5 star hotel with 5 star prices. I chose the hotel as it had 3 restaurants but when we checked we were informed that the was no space in the restaurants only in the buffet. We had half board. That was poor for a 5 *. Buffet was ok if you like that way of having dinner. We were unlucky that it was cold in the canary island and very windy. The room had no heating system and they provided a small electric heater. I was surprised not to have a heating possibility even here. The staff was very friendly and could not do enough. Nice big rooms and beautiful swimming pools. Some parts of the hotel need upgrading to maintain the 5* status and keep the prices. It was not good value for money.
Very customer and service oriented staff. Food was very good. Spa was nice. Good location. Good bed and shower. One strange thing: they charged extra for the use of safety box in the room. Unbelievable!

Single beds were not good.
No ambience or music by pool
Not seated to table which was disappointing
Great location, lovely pools, great food - wonderful variety at buffet, most of the staff very friendly.
However some negatives - the overpowering use and smell of insecticide in our room - I can still smell it 2 days after leaving the hotel! Some other surprising and disappointing points (for a 5 star hotel) - no slippers provided, a charge of €22 to use the in-room safe, pillows and towels were 3-star level.
Nice hotel but was amazed in this day and age that in 22 C heat they insist on using outdoor gas heaters in the outdoor dining areas. Nobody was asking for it and it made the experience uncomfortable. We need to stop doing this!! Poor form RIU.
Beware of inadequate aircon in the main block and wing rooms. Ours didn't get below 22 degrees the whole 10 days we were there despite leaving it on 24/7.and the outside temperature falling to 15 overnight! Apparently the villa blocks are much cooler, "freezing" even. Hard floors and thin walls mean you are reliant on other people to keep the noise down which on the whole they do, as the average age of the clientele must be 65+.
Facilities, grounds and pools are all very good with lots of sunbeds and brollies available in sunnier/shadier, windy/ not so windy spots. Don't believe the "No reserving of beds" rule though, it is completely ignored by the staff and guests.
Food suffers from the inherent disadvantages of the buffet format. There are plenty of cooking stations in operation, but whilst there is a wide choice (but no pineapple juice) and unlimited supply, the food is only 3/4 * quality with lots of fried meat/fish options. It works for breakfast, but is not 5* for the evening meal. The desserts were particularly disappointing, looking fabulous but all artificial and tasteless. Only the choux buns had real cream in them.
The staff were friendly and generally efficient throughout. Can't comment on the entertainment as it is not our thing. If you want to eat out there are plenty of nearby options, but apparently the only really good one is Samsara.
L’hôtel Riu Palace Meloneras offre un cadre agréable, mais dans l’ensemble, il ne correspond pas vraiment aux standards d’un établissement 5 étoiles. Le restaurant principal dégage une odeur de renfermé, ce qui pousse la plupart des clients à manger à l’extérieur. La salle de bain mériterait une rénovation, et la réception manque un peu de modernité. Dommage, car le potentiel est là, mais une mise à jour serait nécessaire pour retrouver le niveau attendu d’un hôtel de cette catégorie.

Me cobraron 400 euros por mi hijo porque la aplicación de hoteles.com no puso bien la edad y el hotel me cobró esa cantidad por el cambio de un bebé ( que venía por defecto) y un menos de 14 años. 400 euros por 4 noches. Tengo la factura
