What you come to expect from Riu.The amenities were very good but the entertainment as such was very limited by the size of the room (the only bar) and the availability of seats.

The Hotel Riu Olivina was a great place to stay during our Christmas Vacation. The food was typical buffet. Our bedroom was spotless. The personnel at the hotel were super. This is also a great place to stay if you have a "mobility problem." No stairs, and the ramps are easy to navigate. More

We have just returned from an all inclusive holiday at the Riu Olivina and cannot fault it one bit.

Sitting by the lovely pool you feel as you could... More

Just returned from a week's break in Lanzarote, all inclusive at Hotel Riu Olivina, Puerto Del Carmen courtesy of Thomson holidays. Flights, transfers good as one would expect. The hotel accomodation clean, tidy and well appointed - the food served was perfectly acceptable with something to cover most tastes, not haute cuisine but certainly value for money.
