 | Just realised that Rios are on the list for reviews, so will duplicate here our review we left onto the forum few days ago.
So, got brave enough and went to Rio's for the first time on Thursday 19/12/24 What can we say... SOOOO pity we didn't go before!
Facilities are great: 2 steam rooms, 2 or 3 saunas, 2 mid size hot tubs and 1 XL one, decent size swimming pool with great water (about +33'C), nice relaxing area and BYO alcohol bar, few playrooms and smoking area.
There were about 8:1 men to women ratio during the day. All men who we interacted with were very polite, many offered massage to wife, and it was actual massage, no hanky-panky business It was some touching in jacuzzis but simple 'no' or 'yes' did the job.
Staff was polite, owner Mick was nice, even security guy was quite friendly. Dress code was "nude optional" which is great for us. We've noticed they do check water quality every hour or so, which is great.
What could be improved: would be nice to have a tour of facilities, which wasn't offered, unfortunately. So we explored ourselves and quickly got hang of it. Smoking area is quite freezing and few heaters and PVC curtains would make it perfect for the winter. A bit more wall hangers around the pool would be great, as it was nowhere to hang bathrobe or towels. Playroom we were in was a bit chilly, but got "hot" very quickly as soon as we went in ;)
In two words - we do recommend it and will be back regularly.
