This hotel is situated in one of the most beautiful beaches in Algarve. It is really on the beach, so it is a great place for people with disabilities or young children. Yes, it is dated, but the staff and constant remodeling make it very comfortable. It is a favorite among older crowds, and many people return to it year after year. We have stayed here for many years and will continue to do so.

In itself, the property is beautiful. Very clean and the bed was super comfortable. The pool area is well kept and it a lovely large pool. Unfortunately, my whole experience of the place was marred by a very rude receptionist who decided to accuse me of stealing part of the deposit I had left for my pool towel. She insisted that she had placed two 10 euro notes onto the counter when she had only placed one. It was especially upsetting as it was my birthday and my first conversation of the day. I would not go back due to this member of staff.

This hotel is located on the beach which boasts a lovely boardwalk. Hotel is very spacious with a lovely reading room where one can relax and enjoy the lovely views. There was music every night which was lovely. Bedrooms are spacious and clean. Breakfast was the best we have ever eaten abroad with a great variety.
The pool area is was very clean but very few ventured into the pool as the water was very cold.
I would highly recommend this hotel and location for a relaxing holiday. It has a fabulous beach which is always a plus.

We enjoyed our stay for 3 nights. The breakfast and dinner was ok, as it was included in the price. It was nice to have tea and biscuits in the afternoon. The staff was wonderful. It was winter therefore many retirees were staying here and it was definitely an older crowd. We rented bikes across the street and it is an excellent area to bike. They are building a beautiful boardwalk. I would definitely come back to stay for a short time.

Dated rooms in need of a makeover

The rooms are old and in need of a good paint and clean. The bath was yellow with age and was not very appealing to shower in let alone bathe. I reported to the receptionist, I think his name was Raphael that I was unhappy with the state of the room and that the bin had not been emptied. I asked to change room, and despite the lady receptionist saying the previous day that the hotel was very quiet, he stated he had no rooms. He was extremely unhelpful, and I would go as far as to say arrogant. The other people working their were fine. I would say that the beds appeared new and the bedding was fine. The areas outside of the room are also good and generally well kept. It is a pleasant location right next to the beach.

Vanuit het hotel loop je binnen 5 minuten het strand op of je ligt heerlijk bij het zwembad waar gelukkig geen harde muziek te horen is. Het ontbijtbuffet, van 7-10.30, is zeer uitgebreid. Het hotel is oud maar housekeeping doet zijn best om alles goed schoon te houden. Het comfort van alles dichtbij maakt veel goed. Aanrader voor gezinnen.

La localisation \"pieds dans l'eau\" est parfaite, un hôtel qui a un cachet certain et qui dispose de beaucoup de place, d'un parking privé et surveillé (mention spéciale au gardien qui est très sympa) les points moins positifs sont à attribuer à l'accueil qui n'est pas très \"friendly\" et au restaurant qui n'est pas à la hauteur de l'hôtel (tenue correcte exigée mais un service moyen et surtout, pas d'autre possibilité qu'un buffet pour le diner)
Le petit déjeuner est très bien et le restaurant de la piscine est une bonne alternative pour le déjeuner.

The very big flaw is the managment. With the new Corona Rules there is anarchy during breakfast. Staff was doing their best, but you can see there is no leader to organize. There were simple solutions that could easily solve the issues and huge breakfast queues.

Quando cheguei e fui efectuar o check in disseram que o jantar não estava incluido e queriam cobrar 90 euros por pessoa, 1 dos responsaveis ainda gritou com os colegas dizendo que nao estava incluido o jantar isto apesar de nos termos meia pensao na reserva. Causou nos grande transtorno porque era noite de passagem do ano e nao tinhamos nada reservado . Tivemos que andar a procura de um sitio para jantar numa noite em que os poucos restaurantes que estão abertos ja estão cheios .
