6/10 Good

A price to far.

Extremely over priced for a very poor quality hotel. I would love to know where it gets its 4 star rating from. As for the jacuzzi and indoor pool! Wear a pool cap you would need a body suit for the jacuzzi which had a layer of scum around the whole bath and the water itself was extremely cloudy. Me and my partner will certainly not be back. Seven hundred plus euros for 4 nights bed only? Breakfast advertised on hotels.com at 4€ when the real charge was 12.50€ Tchau for good.

The hotel was everything we expected and more. Arrived around 2 we were happy to sit by the pool but our room was ready. The staff are so friendly and informative. They all seemed to enjoy their jobs working with smiles on their faces.

4/5

The stay was fine. It was walking distance from the beach area. The staff were very helpful. I was a little disappointed in the room, in that it had worn out couch and chair, the kitchen refrigerator smelled like fish and was broken, the shower was out of date. The breakfast was very good and the pool was very enjoyable. All in all, with furnishing updates I would stay there again.
James, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

There was lots of space in our senior suite ... a very nice balcony. The rooms are old looking and could use an update. Good location to the beach (Praia do Vau) and it was a nice beach. There was a kitchen but not dish cloth and no soap. Was good value for was we paid.
Frances, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was large and with lots of facilities, with a nice balcony overlooking the sea, small kitchen and fridge. The staff were helpful and friendly and could all speak English. It was only a 5 minute walk from the beach. The only thing that let it down was by the neighbourhood: a public recycling facility across the road was noisy with loads of litter, and a neighboring residential block had a dog barking at all hours. The bed mattress could have been a little less lumpy. The breakfast buffet was amazing and dinner very tasty, loads of choice. The outdoor pool was fantastic. Overall, we'd stay there again and would recommend to others.
Kristine Ann, 7-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not worth your money, not even 3 stars

We decided to eat at the restaurant only to find out that there was only a buffet at 20€ each, no choices (potatoes and rice) nothing was fresh (you could see the eggs turning grey) … I could have eaten better at a fast food. The hotel is not even close to a 3 star : walls insulation non existent (I heard a couple fighting and babies crying) pillows were so old that the feathers turned into crusty bit inside. The hotel has been built in the 80s and hasn’t been refurbished since then. The indoor pool needs ppl to wear a cap charged at 4€ each. The breakfast is a buffet too but you can’t ask for fried eggs on a scramble day eggs and vice versa - never seen this!
Ancy, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

No suelo dejar comentarios en la gran cantidad de sitios que viajo al año, pero en esto debo decir que decidimos marcharnos un día antes de las dos que ibamos a pasar porque no es para nada lo que esperaba. El hotel tiene mucho potencial, pero dista mucho de ser un 4 estrellas real. La piscina OK, buffet desayuno OK, pero la habitación familiar y mantenimiento, están un poco decayentes, algo importante es el Aire acondicionado es muy antiguo y no funciona bien (en verano es básico). El precio en verano es absolutamente desproporcionado (>250€/noche), por este precio deberían tener unas instalaciones realmente adecuadas, renovadas y con más amenities, con detalles de bienvenida, etc.. espero realmente que inviertan en mejorar completamente las habitaciones porque es una pena. No pagaría más de 100€/noche por algo así en cualquier época del año. las camas y sofa-cama igual, sonaba ruidos por todos lados, no era cómodo.
