2/10

Horrible place. The hotel is completely worn down. It’s dirty and the staff are the most unfriendly I’ve met in Portugal, especially in the reception. It’s not a family hotel, the kids room is placed in a dirty basement with no windows and is extremely dirty. Disgusting

5-night trip

10/10

We enjoyed our stay and would consider returning. Positives: good location, great spacious rooms in the sea view suite, fantastic breakfast, lunch and dinner. Staff were friendly and helpful. Shuttle runs to town free of charge. Only negatives are: Not all-inclusive, only small selection of standard drinks and 2/3 cocktails. Paid entry into a small indoor pool, 4 person hot tub and sauna facilities. Gym is tiny but modern, fits about 2/3 people. A little smell in the rooms we believe from drains, although other than that super clean and smells lovely in hallways. Relatively expensive massages for what you get.

3-night trip

8/10

We had a nice stay for a week. Clean rooms, nice buffet, good coffee. A special thank you, for the waiter, Jose, who gave us good service - say hi to him from the greenlandic family 🇬🇱 Unfortunately the were som employers at the spa area, who didn’t new that the inside pool was free of charge because of the reconstruction. We therefore payed 2 times for the inside pool area, which should be free for use when it is an all inclusive resort. Why isn’t that meantioned when we are doing a reservation?
7-night trip

10/10

An amazing all inclusive hotel. Staff very friendly and professional. Food options on the bufet changed every time, even from lunch to dinner. Great selection of drinks, cocktails and fresh natural juices at the bar. The only minus for us, was that we had to pay to use the indoor pool that in our opinion should be included, specially if you have to pay every day you want to go there. Parking on site is plenty, and they have a free minibus shuttle service that will take you to the old town. We will defenatly come back.
