⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Was looking for good resorts near al bufeira but didn’t want to spend too much money on cause I didn’t had much time to enjoy resort but area, when I found this hotel which offers 2 bed rooms suite with unbelievable price tag immediately I booked. It worked out very well checked in mid night didn’t took long when we get to our villa it was three bedrooms which was too big for us, with kitchen and stuff free water bottles and some fruits which was nice, huge resort they do offer buffet breakfast I think 20euro pp. didn’t get much time to enjoy resort as we had only two nights stay but if I m back in beautiful faro then def gonna stay here beach front was good free parking indoor outdoor.

Overall a good stay but definitely not a 5 star. Beautiful property by the beach but our 2 bedroom suite needed upgrades. No tea or coffee in rooms. Far walking distance from food options. Shuttle service provided but not convenient times. No shuttle on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff amazing!

Exceptionally beautiful and well-run hotel. We stayed in a self-catering villa and it's certainly the best hotel we've stayed at for these rates per night (and preferable to having bed and breakfast at a lesser hotel). Fantastic beach and location. The only negative being the rather rusty and dated equipment in the gym. Overall, highly recommended.

Great resort

My wife and I had a great stay at the Grande Real Santa Eulalia Resort. It is a pity we did not spend more time to enjoy the facilities there during our short stay. Staff was friendly and we were given options not to have our towels changed to be more eco-friendly. I would definitely stay there again.

There were multiple added charges, 14 euro to "rent" a beach chair? Isn't it an expectation to sit on the beach when traveling to a beach resort? Also wanted to charge for the indoor pool use... Yet when we asked for our complimentary water to be delivered (yes, we had to ask) because they did not leave it during the day, we got that's not my department twice. Finally got it, but it seems there was always someone to collect the added fees, but not when you needed the complementary!
