Hotel LIVVO Risco del Gato Suites

This place is so different. Lovely spacious accommodation. Very clean and comfortable. Offering some nights a la carte some buffet and BBQ. Choice of meat ,fish or vegetarian for main courses . Salads help yourself . Beautiful homemade soups of which I do not normally partake in hotels, but this was so fresh and gluten-free. Accommodated my allergies and gluten-free without problems. Excellent service by the waiting on staff. Breakfast with live cooking station for bacon and eggs not sitting in a ban marie but served fresh and hot. Lovely wines not overly priced. Private out door sitting area with sun beds and outdoor shower but we also used the garden which outside our gate was also private without public path if you needed to move with the sun ( block 3 ) Only 1 hiccup involving the bathroom jacuzzi tap flooding the corridor but the offending tap was isolated the next morning leaving the spray head only for filling which was not a problem, a change of room was offered if I was not happy with the repair which I declined as I loved block 3 best. All in all one of the best experiences we have had in a long time. Only thing missing was the bar which was in a lovely area but never open.would have been a nice change than going back to our room after din ner as we were put on second sitting for dinner . There was one bar near the hotel but we preferred to go into costa cama before dinner or to the beach bar with occasional live singer then taxi back when dark as the pavements are very dangerous to navigate even with a torch. We found Esmerelda beach perfect for hot days. A fabulous walk to Sotavento lagoon easy enough . Or windy days stay in our garden and laze by the pool which we had mostly to ourselves. I would definitely return with out doubt

We stayed for 6 nights over Christmas. A magical place with a unique style. The place was spotless and the breakfast buffet was the highlight of my day. 10 mins to the beach & Spar Shop. The Junior suites were huge with private terrace and private courtyard. The bathroom was a bit tired with a cracked mirror and a badly placed shore in the centre of the room that I tripped on more than once. The staff were lovely. Would definitely recommend if you peace and privacy and sunshine is what you need.

This is our third visit to Risco del Gato in 13 months. We do not understand why it is so quiet although we are delighted because it means it is such a wonderful relaxing holiday. You can sunbathe completely privately in your own three roomed bungalow apartment with its enclosed large private patio. As usual the food was abundant, and delicious. During the week the offer oscillates between speciality all-you-can eat buffet nights - Italian, Canarian, Barbecue - and set meals with a choice. A few British folk but mainly German, Spanish and French. Probably because the big UK tour operators do not frequent here. We use Secret Escapes. If you are looking for an all night bar, all day drinks at the pool, evening entertainment, or music blaring out all day, this is not the place for you. Hiring a car is cheap and there is so much to see in this quiet beautiful island. The beautiful and long sand beach of Costa Calma is at the foot of the Hotel's landscaped gardens but there are very many other fabulous and isolated sandy beaches within a short car ride. Yes the hotel is showing signs of age and is dated but rather quaintly so. But everything is painted regularly, there is no detritus anywhere and it is very clean. We have paid twice as much and stayed in a posh five star hotel in Gran Canaria where no light came into the room and the shower blocked up and overflowed into the room every time it was used. When Risco was built the best of room furnishings were used and they still stand the test of time. No showers overflowing for Risco! Oh did I mention the exclusive outdoor shower on our patios by the way! Love this place.

This was our second visit, our first was in 2020 when abruptly Spain went into lockdown. The accommodation is a suite so you get a bedroom , bathroom, lounge and courtyard’ with 2 sun loungers. The staff at this hotel are unfailingly hospitable and friendly. They all work hard to ensure guests enjoy themselves. The food is good ( on half board) , you eat dinner in the buffet restaurant 3 nights and in the dining room with waiter service, 4 nights. There are 2 pools and a Spa; you can book treatments. The hotel is well positioned to walk to a choice of beaches, beach bars and a supermarket. There is a full sized fridge so you can chill wine/ beer/ water to drink in your lounge. The fabric of the hotel is looking a little tired but it is spotlessly clean . Sadly there is no bar in the foyer where there is seating. If the management were to install a bar and have some music in the evening, there would be more revenue for the hotel and a sense of Community amongst the guests. But we still feel Risco del Gato is a special place.

Just amazing! A perfect place to decompress and totally relax. The architecture is just incredible. It was our first time in fuerteventura and I'm so glad we chose Risco Del Gato. It was so peaceful, private and so clean. I honestly can't think of a negative comment about this place other than the air conditioning in one of our pods wasn't working. The beach is so perfect. Crystal clear water. We were so lucky as the weather was so hot but with a refreshing but warm wind. We went on quad bikes up into the mountains which is just an absolute must!

A lovely and slightly different hotel with rooms in attractive pods well laid out and with sea views. Ours was a junior suite and comprised a large bedroom with 2 double beds, separate lounge with sea view, generous bathroom with a Jacuzzi and separate shower and toilet cubicles. The staff were all very friendly and the food was really tasty with plenty of choice.

This was our first visit to the hotel since 2017. We were pleased to find that the hotel remains as welcoming and comfortable as ever.

Comfortable accommodation in a roomy ‘pod’ set in a beautiful cactus garden All facilities were very well maintained and while we were there the pool areas were very quiet The meals in the restaurants were good and varied Friendly staff - especially Paco - heavy metal guy!! This is not the place for you if you are looking for an all action holiday but really suited us - a tranquil retreat close to the beach and nature We were surprised that the hotel did not offer a bar for drinks during the day and after dinner in the evening. This would encourage a more social atmosphere and would be a financial asset for the hotel

Delightful hotel which is very different from the soulless corporate buildings nearby. Lovely gardens and wonderful self contained rooms. The breakfast choice is absolutely wonderful. We had bed and breakfast so did not eat an evening meal in the hotel. The restaurant that adjoins the hotel (Restaurant Del Gato) is outside the security gate - the food was quite good but the building itself is somewhat lacking in atmosphere - it is a pity they could not bring this restaurant into the grounds so that you could eat outside in the cactus garden rather than a dated marquee. It was also a bit strange for a 4 star hotel that you had to pay for coffee in your room - this would normally be free. The hotel itself would benefit from having a bar in the evening where you could chill with a glass of wine.
