Have some Riu-hotels visited, the food was always excellent and diverse. In the RIU Olivina is this not the case. There was nothing special, stale juices from the automat (not freshly pressed). Boring food, which is daily repeated. read more

The apartment complex, as well as the outdoor facilities are very good, but they need be updated. In the bathroom was missing the ventilation. The rooms are functionally furnished, however not comfortable. The kitchenette was available, but could on demand not be used, there the furnishings rather sparse. But who wants on 'all inclusive' already cooking? The food is good and diverse. There is no lounge, by evenings comfortable conversation, or playing cards can. The swimming pools are very nice and one was heated. The staff are always in a good mood and very accommodating. read more

The apartments and the hotel olivina are arranged and will be only through a beautiful canarian garden separated. The size the apartments are completely sufficient and very clean. Only the fixtures are outdated but still functional. The food is in the hotel and is very good quality and great variety. Meat and fish, always freshly fried. The breakfast is also above average and offers about 25 different bread, -and rolls, of course also fried bacon, lots of egg products, sausage and cheese, and so on.

    The distance to the beach about 300 metres. The busanfahrt from the airport to the hotel took 10 minutes from the Riu plant lies central in the place but nevertheless quiet. Public transportation (taxi, bus) in 200 metres.

We are now for the 2. time in a Riu-hotel and are of this hotel chain really loved it. What a nice and well-maintained hotel from, in the you to take it easy. You really your vacation and comes for relaxation. The staff were always friendly. Always for a joke \u263a! As well as the TUI- travel agency very pleasant and for questions and complaints several times daily approachable. On request now, to change rooms because of a screaming small children in the neighbor apartment we could a day later move. We were really happy. No long discussions, we were ... immediately taken serious and the complaint was immediately dealt with. The entrace, the south route and the visit the market in teguise are really a must! Very nice island! Thanks to these three routes we have the most important the island see shortly can without stress! read more

    The staff these apartments are all (front desk, maids, gardeners, waiters ) very friendly, fond of children and one notices clearly, that it was a well-oiled team. We didn't make use of the child care, but the program from the kinderanimateuren (handicrafts, t-shirt paint, sand paintings are all for, kids disco) sounded interesting.

    There is a heated pool and a heated children's swimming pool, the for the season is really necessary. So could our small also at the end of january splash around. Other entertainment we didn't use, however the entertainers were not intrusive.

We had an apartment booked for three adults persons. We found this too small, since it's a bed setting was. The bedroom was very small and cold. The bathroom and the whole furnishings were still in the old standard and uncomfortable. Bathroom was no air ventilation so it always unpleasant stale smell, speak it was very unpleasant air and atmosphere in this room. (the hotel room, which we on the final day to the move could use, was very modern, comfortable and comfortably furnished.) Unfortunately. The complex is very clean, the staff super nice, the food upper top class! read more

The hotel has a great garden and is very spacious. Force so despite many guests on the feet. The rooms are big. The furnishing of the rooms is rather simple and already a bit shabby. This didn't disturb us however not, since we were most time on the way are. Renovation was in our room however the duschbatterie. But with somewhat good will you can also away see. The cleanliness was a typical southern too. I would have liked a bit more effort the cleaning ladies wanted, but i am already on the southern cleanliness set. Overall you can say ..., that effort. By the pool are a few flagstones loose. This bothered us also less, since we didn't by the pool are. However, this is for guests, the by the pool and perhaps with their children there are rather annoying to dangerous, since you are on the loose tiles also injured can. But i think, that this as a part of a short reorganization dealt with his will. read more

    The rooms are relatively large. The condition is rather tired and the furnishing rather old. However, we were not disturbed, since we were mostly the whole day and only for sleeping go to the room. Specially the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner, as already described above. It was just them clean.

    There's a restaurant and a bar, the attached designated smoking area has. You can lunch inside, as well as eat outside, which in the winter months, where it in Germany is not possible, particularly beautiful is. The meal times have at this point be mentioned. You can actually around the hour food, except at night. Breakfast 8 until 11:30 o'clock. Noon of 12:30 until 15:30 o'clock. Then you could still small snacks. In the evening 18:30 until 21:30 o'clock. So really amazing. But there are also for such meal times always people, the my you need to fruits and rolls up. I can not understand. The food is actually very good. I am a very picky eater for the food and but nevertheless everyday something found, the me then also tasted very good. Especially to say is the salad buffet. It is very big and actually very varied. There is a very small vegetarian buffet, at the three small dishes. The only negative, that i can say is, that it very often pork there, but chicken only very rarely. As i at home almost exclusively poultry eat this was then in the long term already somewhat unsatisfactory, but as mentioned: everything i ate was delicious and the kitchen staff is eager to change.

    The staff is really very friendly. So far the friendliest service i have ever experienced. The waiters are very accommodating and actually always in a good mood. You joke with the children and fulfill as good as every wish. The cleaning of the rooms was as already mentioned typical southern too. For our german feel it could have been a little more, but if you often on vacation is you get used to it and appropriate utensils for everyone. Actually all speak english and many also very good german. You really makes an effort to be fair to all guests. Top.

    The hotel is in a side street at the start the shopping and strandmeile of Puerto del Carmen. The beach is on foot about minutes away. A supermarket is also in the immediate area. In front of the hotel there is a parking lot, where you can park your car for free. The binding to the highway is ideal, so a great starting point for all excursions. The capital is is 10 minutes by car.

We were 5 years ago already once in the RIU Olivina (half board) and were a bit skeptical, what the food with 'all inclusive' was. (so far no experience) we found, that the quality and versatility of the meals had diminished. The waiters were friendly and accommodating, it was no bustle at the buffets. A small downer was our accommodation in the first days. We had a view on the wall. Under us was the uncovered bins outside of the cleaning personnel and it was very loud. (number 440) After our immediate complaint, we could then (unfortunately only ) on ... the 3. day in a very nice apartment to move. We were extremely comfortable. read more

We arrived at some days the professional stress to get away from it all and have the desired rest and relaxation in the RIU Olivina found. Chairs and sunscreens were at any time sufficiently available and one of the three pools was always a quiet spot to find. We were greeted with extreme friendliness received, a demand, whether all to our tastes is seems to be compulsory. A broken hairdryer was immediately repaired. The food in olivina (with live cooking) was in quality and quantity absolutely houses with higher star rating equal. On some days there was live music -Titanic ..., irish-folk - for dinner. These managed an extremely pleasant, luxurious atmosphere. Rooms and grounds were always clean, well maintained condition. Overall a hotel with (and this is to be pointed out) - extremely friendly staff (almost familial)-and good food - what else could you want. read more

    Super short walk to the hotel. Our transfer only whole 15 minutes and we were on the Riu hotel. For shopping and stroll on the beach promenade a, in 5-10 minutes easily accessible on foot is. The hotel is located in a very quiet side street and the nearby airport is as good as not to be heard, completely on the contrary one can even the flight and the land observe (if you want).

The three apartment complex are in the perimeter of 100 meters around the RIU Olivina hotel. Our apartment was very big, very clean and had a great view to the sea.

    Our apartment was very big, we had a family apartment. The furniture a bit old however really very reasonable and clean. Impressively was of course the view and the size of the terrace. Clearly, other apartments have these attributes perhaps definitely not, but we only slept there. The interior was quite sparse, as it is all-inclusive in the hotel there was. The rooms were daily except for wednesday and we were very satisfied with the service.

    There was the main restaurant and the main bar and another pool bar in the complex. The staff is in all three areas always very friendly and ready to help. I think it is a very good if i am on a freshly set table can sit. Have the waiter in the hotel permanently taken care of. A table is free, he will immediately again completely freshly set. Two kochtheken the different dishes right before your eyes of the guests fried, grilled or prepared. The salads appealing and clean presented and the selection is balanced and delicious. Everyone could find something here for his taste. in the dining room came despite a large rush never the feeling from the hustle and noise on, it was always a comfortable atmosphere there. Only the beverages in the dining room and at the bars you had to tap alone, which of course too much gaps leads. Even red wine and beer tapped oneself one. Have the waiters much time in the room to keep them clean and this is also perfect.

By the pool are comfortable seating areas for which the show hardly any thrills. Chairs were rarely reserved. The pools and the grounds were always clean and tidy kept.

    We had a rental car and therefore only 10 minutes trip from the airport to the hotel. (thanks sat nav ☺ ) the beach... And that is huge... Is on foot in three minutes, couches cost a fee, because the beaches are public. The promenade Puerto del Carmen is very long and 5 minutes away. Of the hotel complex lies in a quiet side street without through traffic. For excursions by car the hotel is ideally, parking in the hotel car park free of charge.

There was pasta, pizza, fish and every day then changed meat and vegetable dishes. The salad bar and fruit bowls were very good equipped and always very tasty. The tables were always clean and the dishes were always cleared away quickly. At the drinks counter you could even its bottled water fill for the tagesbedarf.

    The hotel is about 5 walk from the wide, sandy beach path. The airport is approximately 7 kilometers away, so that the transfer very quickly. If you at the beach is the airplanes, as you at the airport land, which very pleasant to look at, but not disturbing. The shopping you could also directly reach, which is nice to stroll around.

Compared to the RIU Paraiso Resort clearly the worse choice. But maybe it was due to the time of year. The food in the Paraíso spoiled, it was a total disappointment. In 10 days was 3 times! Grilled liver offered. Otherwise the food was not diverse. And pork (tasted excellent ) in Spain, must really not be the case. Staff were superb, the apartment large and clean, but old-fashioned. But that didn't bother us, was known before. Despite so-so weather it was a lovely vacation. read more

Dining, service, cleanliness, etc. As always when Riu very good, but the condition the apartments is not more Riu-standard! The rooms are from the cleaning staff very clean held, but the shabby condition so you can also not conceal. If you don't mind, the quality of the apartment can accept, the is in this Riu-resort in good hands. The outside area is well maintained and in resort liegente four star hotel is also good. The staff are the most friendly which I today experienced. The way to the beach is in around 3 to 5 walk to manage. The location ... of the resorts I would than quiet neighborhood. Although the years not left the buildings passed are, you can the building recommendable without a doubt. I would be delighted, if' Riu' also once again in such plants would invest and not only new bunker in Karibik or the kapverden builds. Spain, in other words balearic islands and Canary Islands have Riu large and it does not deserve, the houses of Riu-chain constantly sold. Greeting Volker P.

The RIU Olivina is a beautiful, extensive, but offering a clear view complex consisting of a hotel complex and two by a street separate apartment complexes. There is in each case a pool in addition. Everything is clean and nicely planted. The apartment is very good equipped and the size enough. Not ultramodern, but everything is in good condition. The food is excellent. Fresh, varied and almost always very well seasoned, especially delicious are the red and green Mojo! The breakfast ( even with sparkling wine or fresh juice) could also outside to be taken. All of the staff are ... very friendly and are willing to help! Therefore, if we once again our vacation on Lanzarote would like to spend, we will be staying the Olivina book! You should in any case this extraordinary Island by rental car explore. There is a whole lot to see. For example the Playa Famara, Los Hervideros, the village of yaiza, Marriott Resort and many more! read more
