HL Rio Playa Blanca Hotel

Very happy with the food and facilities provided by the hotel. Got good entertainment and staff. However last Thursday when we first arrived me and my dad went to the marketplace by the pool and the woman tried it on by giving me €10 less change and I don't think it was accident as I had to ask her several times to give my right change back which she eventually did. Apart from her all the other staff were great especially the waitresses and waiters who work so hard for the hotel.

Firstly I’d like to add that my review is simply off our personal experience. Reception check in was quick & simple, if you’ve never been and arrive in the night I can almost guarantee you’ll struggle to find your room as it isn’t clearly mapped out & not much lighting to guide you either. There is plenty to do for kids , climbing frames, football pitch, tennis & splash park for little ones although a pre warning it is absolutely Baltic, we arrived 12-01-26 and we couldn’t have picked a worse week weather wise🤣🫣 the “heated” pool isn’t very warm especially when the outside temperature was touching 13° Entertainment for kids lasted 10/15 minutes max they weren’t very engaging just sang 3 songs and they were done. Although the grounds are well maintained & the rooms are clean you’d be glad to know that this hotel is much better than sister hotel paradise island as we paid €30 for a day pass we stayed for the whole of 1 hour the place is absolutely disgusting, filthy dirty if I can give any advise please don’t pay to go to dino park as it’s a complete rip off. Overall I’d rate it 6/10

We recently completed a stay at the HL Rio Playa Blanca and found it to be an exceptional value for the price. The overall experience exceeded our expectations, offering high-quality amenities and service within a reasonable budget. Accommodation & Housekeeping Our suite was well-appointed and featured a unique open-air shower, which was a standout highlight. The room was consistently clean and tidy. We were particularly impressed by our housekeeper, who added a thoughtful touch by redecorating the room every other day. While we noticed a few minor maintenance details, they were negligible in the context of the overall excellent service and did not detract from our stay. Dining & Refreshments The culinary offering was impressive, particularly the breakfast service. The live omelette station was a personal favourite, complemented by a wide selection of fresh fruits, cakes, and ice cream. The dining area was well-managed and kept clean. Additionally, having access to tea, coffee, and soft drinks throughout the day was a very convenient feature. Facilities & Entertainment The pool area was excellent and maintained at a comfortable temperature, providing a cozy atmosphere even during longer swims. The evening entertainment was of a high standard, with the fire show being a particular highlight of our visit. For those traveling with a vehicle, the ample on-site parking made logistics very simple. Service & Atmosphere The reception team was professional and helpful, addressing all our inquiries promptly. The hotel’s "nature-focused" ambiance and the fresh coastal breeze created a truly relaxing and refreshing environment. Conclusion We thoroughly enjoyed our time at HL Rio Playa Blanca. For travellers looking for a balanced mix of quality service, great food, and a beautiful setting in Playa Blanca, we highly recommend this hotel.

Stayed here for 5 nights with my partner and two friends. The positives of the hotel are the location is fantastic for a relaxed holiday. the selection of drinks is good and the food choice isnt bad for a all inclusive. Really let down by the rooms bodged plastering, damp feel even with the air-conditioning on constantly, not the best beds and bedding, just feels like it needs a good refurb and it would go along way to making it a great place to stay.

We loved our stay in this hotel. So many great activities going on everyday, the entertainment team were fantastic always doing something. Shot number bingo was so funny. The food is good for an all inclusive. Pools are clean and don't smell. W eare gutted we won't see the greatest show as we are flying out this evening. My daughter says the best part was ice-cream all day and lollipops at every meal time. The accommodation was spot on, quirky open air 2nd toilet and shower too. Made my day. We up graded our room to a bedroom suite and this gave so much extra space. We loved our holiday, thank you so much. See you again one day
