    It's quiet a big property so the services and maintenance gets little compromise though if you ask for the staff is always keen to help. Property must instruct the upper floor guest not to make noise specially in the night.Since floors are of wood so if anyone walks during the mid night it is scary.We had a crazy incident because this we felt the property is haunted however security was prompt enough to intervene and resolve the issue at 03.00 AM.

    Facilities at the resorts like Icebath,Sauna,Steam bath with Spa .Kayaking

    The rooms are a bit run down, looks different from the photos. Initially it’s a bit disappointing but slowly you get used to it. The breakfast can have a few more non-spicy options, may be adding some continental options will help. The kids breakfast is a disaster with all sorts of processed sugary foods. Some one has a very twisted idea of what to feed our children.

    The staff was accommodating and attentive. The pool was a lot of fun on rainy days.

    I recently stayed at Riva Beach Resort and had a pleasant experience overall. The location is excellent — right by the beach, offering beautiful views and easy access to the shore. The ambience of the resort is relaxing and well-suited for a peaceful getaway. The staff were very polite and helpful throughout my stay. In fact, they even upgraded my room, which was a kind gesture and definitely appreciated. However, the resort does need some attention in terms of maintenance. The room I initially got had walls affected by moisture or "sealon," which should be addressed to maintain a better guest experience. Overall, it was a good stay, thanks to the location and staff, but some improvements in upkeep would make it even better.

    A mild room freshener can be added to the room. More Swings can be added in the property, specifically in common areas.

    There were plenty of varieties for breakfast. We enjoyed it the most. The location is fabulous. Easy access to beach, many options to eat around. Resort is well maintained too

    The rubbish directly under the balcony of room 406 needs clearing and something needs to be done about the smell of sewage which makes it hard to enjoy the balcony. Check-in was a joke took 2 hours and had to speak to various members of staff who did not really help and most of the time we were just sat waiting being ignored, in the end Riviya sorted my check-in and got me room 406 the next day so a big thank you to Riviya. There was a man working in the waterfront restraunt i do not know his name but he was bald with glasses, he made dining uncomfortable he was like a food police officer looking at your plate to see how much food you had took from the buffet. The food was average some dishes were really nice mainly sweets. Choice of food in the buffet is quite limited compared to 5 star buffets for example if you want a western breakfast your options are cereal, bread/toast and a boiled egg.

    Great resort, if you go for a luxary room go for a upper level room lower level luxary rooms are depressing, room 406 is the best room and in my opinion it is the best room in the resort. The Coco Wood room was also good. The menu prices are fair for a 4 star. If you have any issue see Riviya she sorted all my ussues regarding my stay. I will definately stay at the resort again me and my wife actually miss the place.

    There is a room for improvement in cleaning,its not too bad but can be worked on, especially the bathroom and supplies. Also property should be more stroller/wheelchair accessible.

    Amazing property and the staff was very welcoming. I went with my family, they made sure to make our stay comfortable .

    Paid for a massage but wasn't very good. Service by poolside was slow at times.

    Lovely pool. Gym facilities were decent though small. Very attentive staff to greet and checkin

    The first room offered to us had a strong unpleasant smell, as if it had recently been painted or had been closed for a long time. In the new room, which we had no problem switching to, the view was terrible—actually, there was no view at all, as a wall was right in front of our room. If you're looking for privacy, this room is a good choice. However, if you enjoy a good view, I would recommend avoiding this one

    A good resort in general, very close to the beach. The breakfast is good, though not incredible. The employees are kind and happy to help. The ambiance is calm with no noise, making it perfect for families and couples

    Major flaw lies in the cleanliness. The kettle in the room was dirty and stinking. The breakfast tables had ants. The tables and chairs in the resort were not clean. That sense of premium stay is missing.

    Major plus is the location of the resort. Both river and sea views are excellent. Food quality is good with multiple options . The property has 3 pools which are well maintained.
