Hotel Mirador Papagayo by LIVVO

We have been to Playa Blanca several times over the last few years and have stayed in different types of accommodation but always self-catering .This time we decided to stay in a hotel. We knew we're the Mirador was located and liked the location as we enjoy the walk into the marina and then into town. We had a sea view room over looking the pool and then sea it was a perfect view .The room was plenty big and very light and clean. Having a small fridge was handy for drinks We were on a half board basis. Which was fine .I had read a lot of the comments about the food, so was a little concerned.We were presently surprised. We enjoyed the breakfasts plenty of choice hot or cold. Dinner we always found something that we liked .Lots of healthy choices. The staff worked very had to keep food topped up and tables cleared. We managed to sit out side for most of the week .We found it nice and relaxed and it was worth waiting a little for a table. We didn't go to the evening entertainment only because we either went for a stroll or were very happy to sit and have a drink on the terrace over looking the pool and sea. All the staff were polite and helpful, the chambermaid did a wonderful job each day. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a quite location and a chilled out holiday. Would definitely go back next time we make it to Playa Blanca.

Everything

charging for water with dinner. I spoke to the manager and explained that most good restaurants give complimentary water. we were half board. he very kindly waived any charge for the rest of our stay.

Just a superb hotel and almost everything was perfect

Having to pay for water at dinner time because we were on half board. You can get water freely at breakfast but the water dispenser is off limits at dinner time Maybe it's a cultural thing but it is mean spirited and petty. To put it in perspective you can get 1.5L of water in local shop for .29 cent but they charge 2.10 for .5L. To the hotel management give free water at dinner then I might be more inclined to purchase soft drinks or wine with my dinner

Staff were excellent, plenty of sun loungers, room cleaned and fresh bed every day. Relaxing atmosphere around the pool, the pool itself was brilliant and plenty of space, with a keep fit activity every day. Couldn't fault the hotel it self. The views from the room looking out over the bay were exceptional.

Not enough snack options during the day, very basic and for 4 star all inclusive I'd expect better. Food in general was OK, but hit and miss. Again for all inclusive I'd expect more options at meal times, however what ever food was available was mostly very nice. Its the 1st all inclusive I've been to where the pool bar wasn't open during the day, The so called privilege lounge for those who booked superior room is non existent

The staff were very friendly, special mention to Assia who helped us to check into the hotel - answering all our questions with a very pleasant attitude. Stunning view from our hotel balcony, definitely worth the extra charge.

In our opinion the standard of food in the restaurant was very poor, simple examples include the orange juice tasting like weakly diluted orange squash and the fresh fruit was still frozen on one of the evenings.

The friendliness and efficiency of the staff, the quality of service at the bars, dining room and kitchen staff. The selection of food and the facilities were virtually faultless and anyone who wants a relaxing time away with everything to hand, even to the point of signing receipts off and paying at check out rather than carrying cash around was brilliant.

Now we found the Hotel and staff virtually faultless but sadly it would have been nice to have some of the facilities of the Rubicon nearer the Papagoyo area rather than a 25 minute walk to them. Maybe nearer the peak season there may be more free shuttle bussed rather than the 3 each way we had last week.

Loved the location this side of Playa Blanca. Lovely walk along promenade to Rubicon Marina and beyond. Also walkable to the unspoilt sandy beaches of Papagayo. Food was agreeable with enough choice to find something you liked or fancied.

The Dining area lacked atmosphere for evening dinner and was a bit canteenish. Maybe some table linen and candles would improve the evening atmosphere. We always tried to dress smart for dinner as requested by the hotel but some people still turned up in baggy tee shirts and shorts. Kind of spoilt the atmosphere. Would like to see a smarter evening dining experience. Casual at breakfast is fine. Always very busy but you got used to it.

friendly and comfortable

we were half board and quite happy to pay for drinks but not happy to pay a significant amount for a small bottle of water. we feel it should be a given that water is on the table.

Food, service, staff and the spectacular views. Loved also the fact that there is now water both still and sparkling available for free regardless of board basis. I was only half board , breakfasts are superb, dinners ( mains) can be hit and miss but there was only 1 evening meal that I struggled to find something to eat from mains. IMHO salads and the deserts are always gorgeous

Can't really blame anything, the English channels do freeze intermittently in the bedrooms but it wasn't a biggy for me personally as I didn't come on holiday to watch tv

Staff very friendly, location- the best ever, It is convenient even to get to Fuerteventura on a day trip and back Breakfast - really good Dinner - really good, great variety and themed menus each evening If you consider the rise in cost of living' especially if you are coming from the UK This is excellent value for money, and the hotel hasn't dropped its standards post pandemic Folks recommended highly, especially if you have children

We wished the rooms got cleaned every day of two, yes you have the usual room service, which is great, but just wished the room was cleaned often. We were there for 7days
