Twenty-four-hour all-inclusive is the group’s hallmark, and it applies here in full: there is no hour after which drinks and food cease to be included. The rooms fall into five categories and just two sizes: twenty-nine square metres for the Standard Double, the Sea View Double, the Lateral Sea View Double and the accessible room, forty-five square metres for the Family room. All have a balcony or terrace. The outdoor pool has its swim-up bar, and a children’s pool completes the picture.

As for bars, a lobby bar, a pool bar, a swim-up bar and a sports bar. The Riu Land programme keeps children busy, and entertainment runs from daytime activities to live shows in the evening.
