Hotel Riu Papayas - All Inclusive

Excellent Well Needed Break

Fantastic Week at RIU Papayas, Maspalomas 🌴☀️ We had an incredible week away at the RIU Papayas in Maspalomas, Gran Canaria, exactly the one-week break we needed! From start to finish, everything was great. The staff were fantastic, the entertainment was brilliant, and the food was excellent with plenty of choice. We never had any issues getting a sunbed, and the pool was a great temperature, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sunshine. The only thing I would mention is the sleep quality, which I’d rate around 3/5. This was mainly because we were going to bed around 10pm while the even

Nice but not 4 star standard

Stayed for a week and we had a nice time but not to the standard I would expect for a 4 star. Room was nice and spacious however the aircon was terrible and room would not go below 25 degrees. We told the reception who said they would resolve it but that only improved it to about 23 degrees. This was not ideal considering we were looking forward to aircon after the heatwave in the UK. Pool was small and extremely crowded. Lots of sunbeds very close together and shaded. The adult only areas were more spread out so spent most of the time there but was not very clean so had to keep shoes on. No

RIU Papayas, Playa del Inglés – Excellent Hotel with Great Food and Staff, but Sunbed Policy Needs Enforcing

We had a very enjoyable stay at RIU Papayas and would happily return. The hotel is modern, spotlessly clean and the staff are hardworking and friendly.

The location is excellent, with easy access to Playa del Inglés, Yumbo Centre and the Maspalomas Dunes, which were one of the highlights of our holiday. The main negative was the sunbed situation. Although the hotel states that reserving sunbeds is not allowed, this was not enforced during our stay. Guests were reserving beds v

Teleurgesteld

We are currently staying at Riu Papayas, and unfortunately our experience has been very disappointing. We have stayed at several Riu hotels before because we have always had good experiences with the brand. That’s why our expectations were quite high. Sadly, Riu Papayas has not lived up to those expectations. The hotel is extremely large and overcrowded, and it is located on a street with several nightclubs. Loud music and noise continue until late at night, making it almost impossible to get a good night’s sleep. The facilities are simply not adequate for the number of guests staying here.
