“Fab Hotel for the price”

We had an amazing time at this hotel after staying for a week, we emailed ahead of time to request 2 travel cots to our room as we have twins and if my in laws who were travelling from Lisbon to spend time with us for a few days could have a room near us they were given the room next to us which we… more

We had an amazing time at this hotel after staying for a week, we emailed ahead of time to request 2 travel cots to our room as we have twins and if my in laws who were travelling from Lisbon to spend time with us for a few days could have a room near us they were given the room next to us which we were not expecting both requests were handled efficiently and made it much easier for us as a family Room was nice and spacious for my twins to wander around in and they enjoyed looking out the balcony the room was cleaned daily and fresh towels every 2 days the kitchen is basic but we didn’t do much cooking the microwave might need an upgrade as it was slow to heat things up The food was great we always had a selection to choose from for the evening meal and breakfast while it was the same each day didn’t bother us there was a nice selection to choose from, drinks are reasonably priced too We used the laundry facilities too and at €12 to use the washer and dryer I think this was reasonable Indoor pool was lovely and warm and great for the kids when it was raining it is on the small side so can get crowded but didn’t bother us and the outdoor pools are lovely we always managed to get a sunbed not sure what it would be like in peak season though The staff were so helpful and friendly they helped us get taxis when we had to go to hospital, we used the shuttle who had to do 2 trips for us as they only had 1 car seat maybe investing in 2 would be beneficial and Zélia the waitress was great was always helping us get highchairs and entertaining the twins

“Wonderful resort”

We stayed here with our 6 month old baby and it was perfect for a young family in October. We hired a car and there was plenty of parking and very easy to get to Alvor, Portimao and the wider Algarve. The self catered apartment was very large and very clean, and cleaned every day.

We stayed here with our 6 month old baby and it was perfect for a young family in October. We hired a car and there was plenty of parking and very easy to get to Alvor, Portimao and the wider Algarve. The self catered apartment was very large and very clean, and cleaned every day. The bathroom felt vast and modern with a nice shower which I suspect is solar heated as its performance changed with the wildly varying weather but was always warm and powerful. The pools were delightful, a large and deep outdoor one and a lovely shallow kids pool, and a very warm indoor pool which was great and open reasonably late. Cocktails and food at the bar was excellent and cheaper than the UK, and the cocktails were very well made. The staff were impeccably friendly - particular shout out to the two younger bar staff who remained very friendly and cheerful even in the face of some other seriously grumpy British tourists when the main bar was temporarily closed and moved to the restaurant bar. True professionalism. We would very happily stay again. The only thing to note was the fridge is a bit dated and could do with modernising, and the tennis court really needs resurfacing. Other than that, no issues at all and we will be back.
