Average stay

Pretty average resort. Would need a car to stay here as it’s quite an isolated resort. Decent room, staff friendly. Standard buffet breakfast choices except they don’t have any vegetarian sausages or vegetarian alternatives. Bit expensive for what it is. Personally I wouldn’t stay here again but it’s not too bad so 3/5 ratings from me.

This property was beautiful. The hotel pays close attention to detail. The pool area is lovely and so are the pool bar staff. They clearly take a lot of pride in their landscaping. The food offerings at the hotel are quite basic, but there are several fantastic options nearby. I wish we could have stayed longer! This is truly an oasis.

While we stayed at the property during off season, it was a very comfortable, peaceful and serene stay. The property is beautiful, clean and very well maintained. The only negative aspect of our stay was the front desk staff, a man who refused to smile and came across as quite rude on our encounters. Other than that, highly recommend.

Felt like a resort. Breakfast was excellent. Dinner options were good. Swimming pool was really nice but cool (not heated). However they have a smaller heated pool as an option. Very nice property. Room and beds were very comfortable. Great value! Highly recommend this hotel.

Property grounds were pretty. Breakfast was nice. We had ants and no electrical outlet in our bathroom. The outlets in the room were hard to access. When I plugged in my phone charger block, I had to keep my bed 4” from the wall. I had to go to the “spa” after 10 am in the morning if I wanted to do my hair due to no power in the bathroom and no mirrors anywhere else. Spa was very dark and dingy. Didn’t look anything like a spa to me. Front desk staff not very helpful and our friend’s room had no air conditioning. They moved them to a new room on the second day after they had a night of no sleep.

My wife and I booked our stay here because of the proximity to all the spots we wanted to hit in Algarve without being in the middle of the madness. Upon arrival the luxurious look and feel to the property surprised us, specially considering how affordable it was. The staff was super friendly, polite and helpful. The included breakfast buffet was outstanding, with options for even the pickiest eater. They also offer a dinner buffet every night for €30 that was spectacular, different offerings every night and delicious dessert options too. The Common areas were well maintained, large pool, gardens and multiple areas to relax and sun bathe. This place has it all. We will be coming back and will happily recommend to anyone wanting a great place to stay in Algarve.
