Dunamar Hotel Apartamentos

“One of the nicest hotels you'll find!”

Excellent hotel, all areas very, very clean. We had a one bedroom apartment which was very spacious. We were only bed & breakfast, which was nice and plenty to choose from.

Excellent hotel, all areas very, very clean. We had a one bedroom apartment which was very spacious. We were only bed & breakfast, which was nice and plenty to choose from. Hotel is very well run with helpful and friendly staff. No one allowed to reserve beds with towels from early in the morning, and it worked really well, getting a sun bed was never an issue. Really close to all amenities. Would return here in a minute.

“Great hotel, great location and great value for money”

I booked this last minute and it wasn't my first choice. However I'm glad I stayed here. The hotel was lovely..The staff were very friendly..in particular the restaurant staff.

I booked this last minute and it wasn't my first choice. However I'm glad I stayed here. The hotel was lovely..The staff were very friendly..in particular the restaurant staff. The hotel backs into the beach which was the prettiest beach I've ever been to. The rooms were spacious. The buffet breakfast was stereotypical with plenty of choice. The cocktails were a good price for a hotel. 7 euros. You can go to the gym or fitness classes but you have to pay as it's a private health club... 5 Euros. I also booked in for a massage which was amazing. I'd stay here again. Downside ...the mattress was hard so I found it hard to sleep and the pool was absolutely Baltic. The sea was warmer to swim in.

Great hotel close to beach and very clean pool area and rooms cleaned daily. Pool snack bar , overpriced waited ages and food cold , even when not busy. Sun beds , you need to be up early to get one as by 9.30 all gone . Pool bar staff not overly friendly and looked miserable. The hotel itself is large and impersonal but this may suit you but the rooms were great clean and comfortable

“Dunamar not a 4 star”

Myself and my wife have just returned home from a week at the Dunamar hotel in Monte Gordo and I dont think it should be classed as a 4 star. I'll do the negative points first.

Myself and my wife have just returned home from a week at the Dunamar hotel in Monte Gordo and I dont think it should be classed as a 4 star. I'll do the negative points first. The lifts and corridors need more attention when being cleaned, I don't think I have seen a single clean window around the hotel especially the glass in the restaurant and around the pool. The room was a good size but is in serious need of modernising if it wants to be a 4 star. The kitchen needs updating, the bathroom has a loose toilet seat, loose grab rail over the bath, loose taps, grotty tiles and dirty grout lines which have never been cleaned and the bath is really grotty, infact I wouldn't bath my dog in it let alone have a nice relaxing soak and they have the cheek to ask for a 50 euro deposit incase anything got trashed lol. The ceiling in the living room has got flaking paint and there are loose door handles, I get the impression that they don't like investing money into the hotel. The sunbathing area doesn't open until 9am so you end up with people queuing to go in and then a mad dash to get a sun bed, which there is a shortage of, there are broken tiles around the pool which are unsightly. The good points , the location is ideal as its a very short walk to the beach and the local shops and restaurants which there are ample. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the breakfast is one of the best we have had in the Algarve and we have stayed at a few hotels over there which is why we can definitely say that it shouldn't be classed as a 4 star. Unfortunately, we won't be returning to the Dunamar hotel again.
