Simply top notch! Definitely five star attention to detail in a beautiful historic house. Breakfast selection was excellent quality and a wide variety of options. The Beach Club was a pleasurable way to spend several hours. Poolside food & bar service was attentive and menu items we tried were delicious.

Sweet hotel in lovely locatuon
Lovely hotel in quaint location. Loved the beach club as well. Note that this is in a very quiet part of the Algarve - it is peaceful but not “hustle bustle.”

Nice place
Tim was small but comfortable. Enjoyed the town and hotel. Their Beach Club closed at 5 which was a total bummer. I think they keep it open later doing the high season. It’s about a 10 min ride in their shuttle. 30 min by bike, which are available free of charge at the hotel. There’s a great bike riding area through a forest. Breakfast was lovely. Staff was very kind and helpful.
