Francesa Beach

Overall great experience, we really enjoyed the property and the amenities. Food and drinks are above average for an all inclusive. Bar staffs were friendly and professional, shout out to Eliza!

Nice hotel and grounds with good access to the boardwalk. We stayed at the RIU Arecas, the hotel immediately behind it. The RIU Palace is a good hotel if you want larger hotel gardens and boardwalk access for the elderly etc. However, if you don’t mind walking down a large flight of steps, the RIU Arecas is the same standard and had better food.

Had a great stay at La Plantation in May. Lovely big room and bathroom which was super clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and seemed happy to be there. Special mention to Lily for the great daily yoga sessions! The food was also a real highlight with a great range of fresh salads, cheeses, bread and the cook to order fresh seafood and meats were delicious. Having a choice of king prawns, swordfish, sea bass and langoustine made the buffet worthy of 5* . We wanted a week of total relaxation and feeling pampered and that's what we got. Thank you La Plantation team. One small request would be to ensure that the adult only areas and expectations for the relaxation pool zone are reinforced by all staff. During our stay it was done by the pool staff at the beginning of the stay, which was great, but not midweek. Having selected the hotel for having a separate quiet adult only area this was important to us and probably to some other guests too. Other than that it was a fabulous experience which we hope to repeat!
