Very nice indeed! My wife and I stayed at the Rio Real for a week of relaxation during September 2011. Neither my wife or I play golf, however this did not spoil our break in any way, in fact it was nice to sit and watch the golfers teeing off (or whatever it is they do) while eating breakfast. The...

Myself and 3 friends took a short break lastvweek tobthe Rio Real golf hotel in Marbella. It wasn't our first visit and I won't be our last. The hotel (5km from Marbella) is sited on the Golf Course and is a small boutique style with about 30 designer rooms. Although not a good when opened 10 years ago, the rooms... More

Nice and spacious rooms (incl. spacious bathroom) right on the golf course - it is tugged away in a home community not too far away from the highway yet due to its location (in between some lower hills), it is quiet and has views of the golf course.

The hotel itsel is very good. The rooms are luxurious and really fresch. The front desk serves limited hours, thouhg they are friendly and helpful when they are there. The service in the restaurant is terrible, but the food is ok. The staff is rude, impolite and straight out unfriendly. They really need to work on their attitude! We were... More

We stayed at the Rio Real for 5 days to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We chose the hotel because of its fantastic reviews for both the hotel and restaurant. We were told when we booked in March that the restaurant was closed for refurbishment and would be open again in June. Unfortunately this was not the case, the restaurant... More

Great place for golfers to stay. We stayed in the par superior room. Very spacious, big bathroom with two lavabo, rain shower and bath. Big bed and great view on golf course and mountains. The reception is very friendly and helpful regarding restaurants recommendation. Breakfast was too less choice and very basic. But they said they will change it soon... More
