Property could be lovely if there was some investment in upkeep
Every bath was corroded and stained with rust
Terrible smell in 1 bathroom
Balcony door didn’t lock, one bedroom had no working lights
Smashed window sellotaped over in one bedroom
Property not well cleaned
Pool filthy, definitely needs better cleaning and investment in filters

Staff all very friendly and the issues reported to the front desk were resolved in a way, very promptly.
Pizzas nice

I booked this hotel last minute while driving from Aveiro and sent a message through Expedia to let the hotel know we’d be arriving late. Unfortunately, our rental car got a flat tire, and we were stranded for hours, finally arriving around 4:00 a.m. I also called the hotel using the tow truck driver’s phone, but no one answered.

Instead of showing any understanding, the staff was rude and dismissive. When I asked about my message and requested a slightly later checkout due to our late arrival, I was told no in an unfriendly manner.

The room was also very dirty. There was a spider on the bed that scared my children, the floor was dusty, and the faucet was filthy. I have photos and videos as proof.

Overall, the poor cleanliness, lack of communication, and unfriendly service made this a very disappointing stay.

Good property. Nice pool. We got a family apartment. A lot of space, like 2 bedroom with kitchen. The only problem was air conditioner didn’t work in one room and it does look it was like this for a long time. They pretended that they will check it and fix it. The problem wasn’t resolved

Very clean accommodation, great staff who go above and beyond. Pool area is clean and tidy, although the indoor and outdoor pools are not heated. The facility is in need of updating, in some ways this adds to the charm of the Portugese style of the apartments. The bar and restaurant was very quiet in April with no entertainment and closed at 10.30pm. The premises are out of the town and beach, Taxis are approx 7 euros to the beach and the nearest supermarket. 20 minute walk to supermarket and a good 40 minute walk into Carvoeiro. We were a 3 generation family of 7, we booked a one bed and a two bed apartment, they were spacious, clean and very good value.

Great apartment for the price

For the cheap price we paid, we were very pleased with our stay.
Pros - spacious apartment, good shower, indoor and outdoor pools, basically equipped kitchen, kettle, hairdryer on request at reception, excellent maid service, fresh towels daily, shower gel and hand wash provided in bathroom, lots of drawers and cupboard space and hangers provided
Cons - dated decor, sofa bed is not great even for 2 kids to sleep on, kitchen could have had some basics such as a scouring pad and washing liquid, oven difficult to use, uncomfortable mattress on bed

Colina Resort

Location for Carvoeiro / Portimao is excellent. About 50 minutes out from Faro airport.

The property is in need of a little repair / maintenence and updating. However, the team on site are excellent and value on site is great. We would stay again and hope that some of the updating has progressed. Really helpful arranging hire car*, service at the restaurant and bar were excellent. The town of Carvoeiro which has some fantastic restaurants is a 10 minute drive/Uber and the supermarket Apolina and Lidl or Aldi is only a 10 minute drive/Uber away also.

All in all a really nice stay for a one week family break.

*for our family the conveneince of a hire car was essential. However, Uber prices are very reasonable and may save you against the cost of a hire car, the responsibilty and the hassle of dealing with airport hire car locations.

Cute place overall. Very removed from other places, so was not able to get our pastry for the morning or any fresh fruit. They are very eco friendly, have a garbage bag for all recyclables, which is fabulous. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The place was clean, but VERY dated. The furniture was warped, which made it look bad, but a sanding and a coat of paint would have worked wonders. I would stay here again, but definitely would prep for not being near a mercado, etc.

Enjoyed our stay. The property is old and traditional.
The grounds are well kept. The staff were exceptionally courteous. We ate twice at the restaurant and the food was excellent. It is a 25 minute walk to the beach and a 8 euro cab back after having a few beverages. Feragudo and Portimao are close by and the grocery store is about a 10 minute walk. If you have transportation you will find it a very nice area without the hustle and bustle of the beach area. Not a new and splashy resort but an excellent choice regardless. Thoroughly recommend!

Big rooms, little dates but pleasent stay

Nice hotel, little dated...
Would have been nice to have been told the indoor pool was having work done, otherwise we would have booked somewhere else.. Tennis courts €6 per hour but didnt end up using due to rain.. Pool would have been great for those days. Breakfast was €8 but wasnr much to choose from so we didn't opt for this in the end. Rooms were huge and great value for money.

Poor value for money

Overall I can only state the site is not good value for money and needs some investment.
Good points:
- location
- enough space in rooms
- big pool
- nice room terraces
Bad points:
- bathroom always smelled (seemed to be the water used to fill the cistern)
- no wifi
- tv in room must have been more than 20 years old (with bad reception to match)
- everything is charged extra (pool tables, tennis courts etc)

I loved this hotel! For the price you will not find a better place to stay. It had a lot of room and the whole atmosphere was lively. It was very clean and had pretty surroundings. If they can get the WiFi situation under control, I’m sure they will get perfect ratings. All key workers were very helpful and polite. The waitress even wrote down information for me a dolphin trips.

Okay for a budget holiday

It was a little dated, nice enough for a budget holiday. Pools were very cold even children's pool was not suitable for a child under 4.

Not very good for 'self catering' but okay if you do not plan on using the kitchen.

You need a car as it was 10minute DRIVE to the local beach (not the nicest roads to be walking along)

O apart que nos deram, na parte de cima tinha 1 quarto, casa de banho , sala e cozinha, mas tinha uma escada e lá no andar debaixo tinha mais quartos e outro banheiro, mas não estavam de todo montados e isso nos deu um sentimento de descuido e insegurança, pois tinha outras portas para a parte externa e que não estavam fechadas. Precisei fechar, mas éramos só 1 casal, sem necessidade desse tamanho.
O chuveiro do banheiro não estava bem acoplado na parede e a água não caía em cima de quem estava a tomar banho, tínhamos que segurar na mão e a porta da rua foi preciso chamar o marceneiro, pois quando saímos para passear e voltamos, ela não abria, emperrou. As experiências não foram boas, apesar da pessoa da recepção ser extremamente educada e tentar nos ajudar. Mas segundo ela, não tinha quartos para trocar, mesmo eu dizendo que poderia ser um up grade e que pagaríamos a diferença.

Nice place with good facilities. Better have a car

Return to the place after the first positive experience. First received a two family apartment for one family incl 4 rooms split in two floors with the two bathrooms and kitchen. It's a local habit that guests have to buy dishwashing fluid by themselves. Hmm... this is strange since the cost would be minimal and would encourage the guest to take better care of the dishes. Lots of space. AC was not cooling properly and TV programs disconnected all the time. Great outdoor and indoor pool areas. Second visit to the place one day later we received two room family apartment with kitchen on the 2nd flr. AC not much better and 'fresher' air. Site offers possibility for tennis too. Two courts in perfect conditions, but where are the players. Free parking at the site great, but guests should respect that each parks their car in front of the apartment door. Once paroking sport per apartment. Looks like this was too demanding for some guests

Estadia em Carvoeiro

O hotel é lindo, super agradável, próximo à praias lindas, com uma boa estrutura de lazer, piscinas grandes, coberta e descoberta, quadras de tenis e um café da manhã muito gostoso e com boa variedades, apenas as mesmas todos os dias. Se os banhos forem longos ou muitas pessoas no mesmo quarto, a agua quente da caixa acaba e é necessário esperar uma hora para encher novamente. Ficamos em um quarto no andar de cima em que é necessário subir escadas. Estacionamos o carro na porta do quarto sem problemas ou custo. O atendimento é solicito e pudemos deixar as malas após o check out.

Ótimo custo/benefício

Adoramos várias coisas deste hotel, como o café da manhã muito bem servido, atendimento da funcionária Tatiane que nos ajudou muito. O visual externo do hotel é muito bonito tanto os jardins como a piscina externa. Mas tem alguns pontos que podem ser melhorados. O cheiro no banheiro que deve ser por falta do sifão. O chuveiro que é dentro da banheira e que sai um cheiro de gordura corporal. O ideal seria ser um box. O sistema de aquecimento da água só aquece 30 litros de cada vez então você precisa tomar cuidado na hora do banho pois se usou a torneira na pia da cozinha ou banheiro antes e uma pessoa tomar banho a segunda já fica com a água fria. Isso aconteceu comigo no primeiro dia pois não sabiamos deste fato. E demora para a caixa de 30 litros encher e aquecer. Então a dica é usar primeiro o chuveiro e ser um banho mais rápido principalmente da primeira pessoa que tomar banho, para a segunda não ficar na água fria. Porém numa estadia com crianças já vai ficar complicado. Outro porém é dizer que a piscina coberta é aquecida e a mesma não é. Só é coberta. Os hóspedes europeus usam até a descoberta e não sentem frio, mas nós brasileiros não gostamos de água fria e quis relaxar na piscina coberta e não consegui pois estava muito fria. Avaliação final que apesar destes inconvenientes gostamos muito do hotel, da atmosfera de um pequeno povoado, bom atendimento, dos jardins bem cuidados, o que nos fez achar que foi um ótimo custo benefício também pelo tamanho da acomodação.
