Hotel LIVVO Costa Taurito

Plus points; Large rooms, very clean as well. Small hotel, so not many people. Bath & shower: hot& good water pressure Minus point: no changing cabins by the pool & limited opening hours of the pool (10-18)

Normal range hotel. Very clean and nice staff. The food was good. A lot of variety. Of the three LIVVO hotels is the smallest one and the furthest away from the water park & the beach. It's still walking distance so it's not a problem. Good for families... Taurito is not to big and you have free entrance to the water park, which is very fun.

The room lacked basics, such as mirror over desk area. No sockets there either. No kettle or iron (request for deposit). No tea/coffee in room. We got a kettle, with deposit, but then no cups. So brought some up from restaurant, but was told we couldn't do that, as we need to use paper cups! So, we had to hide cups in room. To stop room service taking them! Room was tired and in need of refresh. Largest towel was not bath size. So that was irritating. We had 3 people in our room, and therefore 3 beds. But we kept having to tell them, to be able get correct number of towels and glasses. There were no extra pillows in room, and they were very flat. So asked for 3 more sets, received 1 more pillow. Chased, but never received the others. Food was not good in our first few days. Over salty, boring choices. Improved a little, later in our 10 day stay. So assumed they had a handover in chefs. Didn't have any cold meats/cheeses, salads etc, as set out open, with lots of flies around. I personally was stuck to find good, healthy options. With salad off my list. Resort is maybe OK for people with small children. But we were a group of 3 adults and with no entertainment or late night choices, it didn't suit us. The Grill Taurito bar on the beach was our only place at night. The hotel 'piano bar', never had the piano uncovered. Lacked any atmosphere, and bar closed early. Even inside the bar at night we had to ask for our drinks in a glass, or you got them in a Pepsi paper cup. Absolutely confused as to how it can have 4 stars.... nowhere near! Wouldn't return.

Had a lovely stay and would recommend. However I would advise renting a car unless you are looking to solely relax by the pool. The hotel is situated in a valley. There is not a whole lot in the valley to do, it's mainly other hotels, and a water park. There is no restraunts or bars in the valley, only those of the hotels. There is a communal entertainment area in the centre which is shared by a few hotels under the paradise brand. Along the coast to the west is Puerto Mogan which is beautiful, lovely beach lots of places to eat and drink. A very nice small town. To the east is Puerto Rico which has a whole lot going on and is great for shopping and nightlife. We used the hotel as our base for breakfast and usually dinner. We went out during the day in our rental car and visited everywhere and anywhere over 10 days. Food was ok. Wouldn't say it was incredible but it was more than enough with decent choices. Not a lot of vegetarian options, but that seems to be a Spanish thing. Everything has meat or fish in it. I would recommend Costa taurito to people but would strongly recommend a hire car. There is a bus service that runs but I like to come and go as I please.

Staff are really nice throughout the hotel. The whole place is pretty dog-eared and the internet/Wi-Fi didn't work at all. Systems are note great across the complex: we were promised access to the aqua park but the aqua park staff disagreed and were pretty rude.
