I stayed here in March 2012 when it was under the Radisson Blu brand. It changed to RIU in early-2014.

I hope they still have special "managers receptions" at the front lobby bar with some good all-you-can-drink champagne.
Here are photos from that trip with my then (now ex) girlfriend. You'll see some nice shots from inside the hotel.

Yes, seriously. Its a great little spot for some nice casual dining.
If there's any criticism I can think of is that the drive up to Anse Marcel is tricky with that single road going up the mountain/hill then back down. Little cars can have some fun with that if you know what I mean.
