Pestana Viking Beach & Spa Resort

“This is the best place for the vacation”

I really enjoyed visiting there so beautiful view Specially thank you again Devardo chef and Naveed is a good person I hope we are meet again this year This hotel is so greatly located and you pay for the nice location so if you love beach and coast, you can still give it a try.

“Pleasant stay”

This is a pleasant hotel. Stunning location on the cliffs with sandy coves either side. Good access to walks along the cliffs too. Comfortable rooms, helpful staff and very good swimming pools. The breakfast has lots of choice.....including sparkling wine ......To give it 5 stars, a little bit more attention to detail would help.....but overall good value for money and I would recommend. Added bonus is a handful of bars and restaurants nearby, a bus stop for Portimao or Albufeira outside, and supermarket 10 minutes walk.

Overall a good hotel , had a bottle of fizz & petals on the bed on arrival 14th feb ! we had a great holiday, in a great location , lovely views , very quiet apart from the super relaxing sound of the sea Breakfast , staff , views , outside area all great as were the inside & outside pools Room was a good size , fair size balcony , nice bathroom , a few maintainence issues , such as cracked glass on the wardrobe , loose tiles on the bathroom floor , old mirror , the bed & bedside had been given a beachy makeover the other furniture had not , the bed base was stained as was the voile curtains which did detract from the attractiveness of the room I would return but I would like a bit more comfort for my old bones lol , cushions on the outside seats & sunbeds would be great & fluffier towels

We stayed here for two weeks from early March, our first visit to this part of the Algarve, during a spell of awful weather. The hotel staff were very helpful and especially Paul Bento and his team who ensured I had gluten free breakfast food. I was given a toaster for our room to avoid cross contamination from the general toasting machine. Overall, the ambience was fine, though there are several areas requiring attention - cracked ceramic tiles at lift entrance on 4th floor; worn towels, some with holes in them; rusted mirror edge in bathroom. The indoor swimming pool is disappointing with its plastic lining and awkward shape, which limits attempts to actually swim a length or two! On arrival we were allocated a double room which did not correspond to the one we had requested. We eventually paid extra to upgrade to a suite which had the sea view we thought we had booked, albeit it was described as a superior double ! The town is a 20 minute walk away but is disappointing.
