The resort was absolutely beautiful. Room was great. Very clean and just as advertised. The only disappointment was that they advertise twelve restaurants but half of them were closed the week we were there.

The room, although beautiful, had issues constantly. There was water that leaked out underneath the sink every day ..I believe from the washing machine. The sink in the one bathroom was plugged when we got there. The bidets in both bathrooms leaked water all over the floor. When you showered, you could not help it...thewater went under the door and all over the floor. Unfortunately, all but three restaurants were closed while we were there. Even the sunset champagne patio bar was closed, even when it was nice out.

Great place with kids, amazing access to the beach. Great amenities, several pools, games arcade, playground and other activities daily. Staff were all lovely and helpful. The outdoor pool wasn’t very clean. The restaurants are all on the pricey side which isn’t ideal with kids but we found some good options outside the resort fairly close by. Hats were mandatory for the indoor pool, would’ve been handy to know that ahead of our visit so we could’ve taken ours. We enjoyed our stay and would visit again

We had a 2 bedroom garden suite looking out onto the pool area. It was at the exit beside the restaurant Peri-Peri which is part of Pune Cliff and it was just across the road to the supermarket if you needed to buy anything. We were self catering but every day the cleaner came and replaced tea towel, towels, tea bags, dishwasher tablets, cleaning clothes- it was amazing they also washed any dishes and put the remainder in the dishwasher and put it on. The only thing I had to do was take the dishes out of the dishwasher and put away. The room also had a complimentary water filter which had different settings, complimentary bedroom slippers and there was bathrobes. When you check in at the hotel reception you get your room key and towel key cards so you get a towel at the pools when you give your card and when you give the towel back you get your towel card back. You have to pay a facility fee for every night you are there which you only pay when you leave and the tourist tax for every night you are there.you can use any one of 8 pools and you can use 3 gyms one of which offers classes which you pay extra for. There is an adventure park with zip line and mini golf and the hotel has its own beach with a lift down to a boardwalk to the beach and big shout out to Zest restaurant for very refreshing snacks in the beautiful sunshine not to mention the hairdresser and the spa.we were there Sept- Oct 2025 and it was beautiful sunshine every day unlike Northern Ireland.

Fabulous property for everyone whether you have kids or a romantic getaway. So
Many different areas, it didn't feel busy and the kids playground was superb. My 3 yesr old slept so well after so much activity throughout the day. We will definitely return. We stayed in the “Gardens” and the washing machine in the room was so useful for a family
on a 9 day trip.

Gorgeous property, unbeatable location. It looks like everything is really far apart, but it is not. The rooms were impeccable all around. Only minor misses were on the communication side with respect to the suite kitchen amenities, e.g. actually having dish soap and laundry detergent available, but not in the room, and the missed dates that the onsite restaurants were open. We spent money buying kitchen items that we later realize we’re not needed because they were included but not provided in a timely fashion. Finally, we put a credit card on file when we checked in, but when we went to the restaurants, it was seemingly not on file which was awkward and not at rectified automatically during our stay. Otherwise, this was truly a stunning and remarkable hotel. Kids loved the beach.

We loved our stay here! We only stayed two nights but wished we stayed longer. The setting is lovely with lush greenery and was lovely to walk around! The restaurants were really nice and the hotel couldn’t have done enough to accommodate our 20mo daughter with a cot and proper high chair provided in the room. Only comment was that the lift down to the Beach was broken so hopefully that will be fixed soon for any disabled holiday goers, we carried our buggy down but next time we’d leave it at the top!

Great family stay

Wonderful trip, lovely accommodation and great resort facilities. We made full use of the Annabel Croft Tennis Academy, which is super. Only downside is food and drink very expensive, but fraction of price in nearby places. Certainly recommend.

Had a wonderful week long stay here in March. The resort is very attractive and me and my toddler enjoyed walking through the resort in the morning and saying hello to the cats. The apartment was clean and cosy and we were not bothered by our neighbours. The cleaners were all very pleasant and friendly to our daughter. The only downside I would say is that they do not have a grocery store on site which I think would benefit clients.

Enjoyed our stay at Pine Cliffs and the golf was great. Staff were fantastic especially Samuel and his sister at the golf club. I wish comms prior had been clearer - was told could not rent clubs - you can! and also that laundry was a service - we had a washing machine in our room! Could have saved us a lot of luggage - clubs (x3) and 2 weeks of clothing! Else everything was great - fantastic resort.

So worth it - truly 5 star

We absolutely loved this resort. On one of the most gorgeous, best beaches I’ve ever seen. Has a huge lawn with sun chairs that overlooks the ocean. We had a 3 bedroom apartment that was so comfortable. An absolute highlight of our trip and this resort is a true oasis away from the very trashy scene at Albufeira Old Town (was gross). Food and drinks overpriced for sure. Can go out for dinner and have breakfast in your room. Huge property so need to be able to walk distances though they have transfers. Big kids club - tons of peeps with little ones. Multiple pools. Just a great experience. We loved it!

We liked the resort, but there was a lack of info re closures and opening of restaurants and bars, not many shuttles to hand and there is a lot of walking if you cant get one. Wanted to play golf but no buggies and because I was on my own would not allow me to book a tee time, also not helpful in that regard. We stayed in an apartment which appeared new, however the shower leaked out into the bathroom, bit messy

Great facilities for adults and children, food was ok, but better options available off resort. However the staff, rooms, house cleaning, professionalism, service with a smile and doing that little bit extra were all there and all were up to par as expected of a well performing 5 star resort. Would definitely recommend.

Stayed here for 5 nights with my sister and mother. Stayed in the new apartments had a two bedroom which was absolutely beautiful and so spacious and clean near entrance of resort. This was convenient as we walked across the steeet in the morning for coffee and croissants. The staff and service was absolutely amazing. It was my mother’s birthday and they sent a bottle of champagne to our room. Tons of beach chairs and great service and beautiful pools. The spa was also excellent as we all had massages. Concierge was so helpful in arranging dinner reservations off site and tacis. The property is massive and absolutely stunning. Mare is delicious and the sunset at the champagne bar was breathtaking. Best vacation and would absolutely return back.

Wonderful stay!

Great experience! The Pine Cliffs resort is the perfect place to enjoy good family moments! In the middle of the cliff and over the sea, its location makes this space one of the best in Algarve!
Just one important remark, there is no specific access to the beach for baby strollers and for people with reduced mobility.

Check in para as 14h foi nos dito que era ás 16h
Room service não disponível 24horas conforme indicado na reserva
Serviço de limpeza não diário
O serviço take away do restaurante Corda bar não veio completo assim como as facturas .
Pequeno almoço do hotel dada à situação com filas intermináveis que acabamos por desistir , deviam organizar se de outra forma nesta questão.
O restaurante da praia com um serviço que deixa bastante a desejar e numa situação em que estava cheio tinha pouca gente a trabalhar fazendo com que tudo demorasse bastante .

De resto condições das Suites excelentes e áreas envolventes .
