Not sure if I would recommend

Not the greatest value for money. Room: Small, not a lot of space. No air-conditioning!!!! It gets really warm in the room and the fan they provide is extremely noisy Cleanliness: Room was not really clean, the floor was dusty and so were the cabinets Location: Would only recommend if you just want to stay around Odeceixe or Aljezur, not Lagos or further South Service: No real options of what to eat at the hotel, apart from if you book it in advance. Andre was actually lovely and recommended a lot of places to go. Value for money: expensive for what it offers, the photos are very different from what the hotel actually looks like.

The room was really nice, had big bathroom with good shower and a comfortable bed. Also very clean and to a very high standard. Amazing breakfast, I ate so much of it! Stunning peaceful location which felt really safe and the pool was so nice. A wonderful relaxing stay in what felt like total luxury. Staff were also very friendly and helpful. Make sure you drink the gift of port on the first night otherwise the cleaners take it away! We were very disappointed as were too tired after our flight in the first day but had been really looking forward to it.

Fantastic hotel in a lovely, relaxing setting

Can't recommend this relaxing, clean, spacious hotel enough. The service was top notch - even providing laundry services for a nominal fee. The rooms were very clean and spacious - with 2 levels for a family of 4. The breakfast was delicious with options for everyone - including fresh fruit, juices, yogurt, cheeses, eggs and crepes. Close by to beautiful beaches.

Beauty and space inside and out

Warm welcome despite late arrival from airport. Spacious and tasteful apartment with all amenities. Perfect breakfasts and good dinner one evening. Much to explore in the area and fantastic walks along the coast (fisherman's trail) and in the Monchique mountains.

Paarurlaub im Oktober

Leider konnten wir den wunderschönen Pool aufgrund des schlechten Wetters nicht geniessen. Ich hatte mich sehr auf einen Tag am Pool gefreut. Das Hotel ist wunderschön, das Frühstücksbuffet umfangreich und alles sehr lecker. Alle Personen waren sehr freundlich! Leider einen Punkt Abzug im Komfort, aufgrund der grossen Abgelegenheit. Auch weil es kein Abendessen vor Ort gab. Immer muss mit dem Auto ein paar Minuten gefahren werden. Aber absonsten top und ich würde wieder kommen!
