Unfortunately a disappointing stay. Broken AC, cold pools, weird sewer smell. Not sure how this is considered a 4 star. With some time and effort spent into upgrading , could be lovely! Food is also really bad :( Won’t be back to stay here!

Was decent for a weeks stay. Didn’t do the all inclusives as we didn’t want to limit ourselves to the hotel. Did expect the basics, like a coffee machine, salt/pepper sachets would’ve been handy, a hanger near the door for coats, cardigans, light jackets etc., kitchen rags so we didn’t have to use the bathroom ones etc. In a lot of places I’ve been, with or without all inclusive there would always be a coffee station with coffee sachets in it that you can at least look forward to in the morning instead of having to go out for one. Other than that can’t say much, the reception area interior is gorgeous, the rooms on the other hand: very basic with loads of space which is why I hoped they’d have done more with it (coat hanger, wall design/picture).

I must add, I did really appreciate the free beach and old town shuttles, they were extremely handy. And the staff were helpful too.

The staff are what makes this hotel.The restaurant team are amazing, they are so good with families the kids love it, really makes meals so much easier.
From front of house, to cleaning staff, to the shuttle teams, the staff are always on hand to go above and beyond. The hotel is spotless, the glasses are never empty, chefs always have food ready to come out. Amazing place to stay.

We love this hotel! The food selection is relatively small for all inclusive, but had good variety and we could rely on the basics for kids. The staff are great and the room is cleaned very well every day. The heated pool is a bit chilly at the end of March, but we knew that may be the case. Our boys, 5 and 7, used to enjoy going to kids club - pyjama night, movie night, crafts. The beach, which was a 15 minute walk away (there may be buses at another time,) is stunning. We’d go again.

The breakfast at the property was outstanding. Staff in dining room at breakfast were very friendly. House keeping staff were very helpful and accommodation was very clean. Parking was very friendly.
Our pool view room was on the north side of the building and therefore the room was not very bright nor could we really even see a pool through the trees . The room was very nice with fully equipped kitchen and comfortable living room and bed.

My stay was good at first, and the staff are generally friendly BUT on the last day the lift suddenly stopped as i was going down alone. Pitch black, no service, and i kept ringing the alarm but nothing was happening. This is a huge fear of mine that came true all of a sudden.

It took a few minutes to move again, when you are in panic this feels like a very very long time. there was no response to the alarm ringing, there were no apologies or making sure i was okay from anyone, just “we don’t know why it happened” and then talking about a blackout that happened a few months ago.

There was no reassurance, comfort, compensation or anything despite me telling them how scary it was, and this has since left me scarred and afraid to go down lifts alone ESPECIALLY since they did not have an explanation as to why it happened.

Apart from this, the room was nice & clean. Not worth a traumatic experience with no comfort after though.

We were very thankful we could store our luggage and use the facilities both on the day of arrival and departure as we arrived early and had a later train. The staff was so friendly and offered suggestions for activities. The pool was nice and the pool bar had great food and cocktails. The breakfast had many choices. The room was clean and spacious. We were able to book a shower room on our last day which was greatly appreciated. The staff went above and beyond. Would come back!

The property was larger than we expected however staff were friendly and helpful. The kitchen could have done with a cloth and vegetable peeler. The pools were nice however towels were being kept on beds all day with little sign of the guests, which was frustrating. Food options were good with allergies being looked after. The property was only 1/2 hr from the airport. WiFi access was very inconsistent.

This is a great family hotel that has a very good children’s club and entertainment. We went all inclusive and our children enjoyed going to the bar and ordering nice mocktails. This is one the best hotels I have experienced for catering for my wife who is gluten free. Sao who was the restaurant manager in particular was so lovely, helpful and really wanted my wife to enjoy her food. She took great care of her dining requirements and we were very grateful as it made our stay very comfortable. The chef also kindly came out to discuss my wife’s requirements. We would recommend this hotel.

Lovely stay

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel is exactly as pictured. Staff was amazing. A few tiny gripes: there is no heated pool or jacuzzi, linens are done every 3rd day and only 1 towel per person is supplied. We did not feel misled in any way, but this is not the \"typical\" American experience. These small inconveniences did little to distract from a wonderful stay.

The nearby beach is amazing. It is accessible by either hotel transport (included) or walking. We normally chose to walk for the exercise. Truly breathtaking beach.

We went in their offseason (Feb - March). No crowds anywhere. Beach virtually empty, streets easy to navigate. For our family vacation, this was the perfect vibe.

We will definitely be going back.

Just book it, book it yesterday.

We had an absolutely phenomenal time at the Patio Hotel. My husband and I went with our two young children (11m and almost 3yo). Our accomodation was basically an appartrment and had EVERYTHING we could need for two kids. I can't tell you what a relief staying here was, to know your needs were looked after. Special shoutout to the staff who ran the kids club - so warm and energetic with my children as well as to the manager who checked in on us several times. But all the staff was perfectly lovely. The facilities were beautiful, clean, the pool amazing, the food amazing (like duck a l'orange was served as a lunch option one day). A 15/10 experience. I wish we had stayed longer.

Not a 4* but an excellent 3*

The hotel is marked as a 4* which it isn't but it is a fantastic 3* Would definitely recommend it for anyone but particularly young families. We went as a family (our daughter and husband and our 1 year old granddaughter) The vast majority of staff were 10/10. There was the odd one or two bad apples but they were drowned out by the good. The hotel is immaculately clean. By far the biggest reason why it's not a 4 star is the choice of food and quality of alcoholic drinks. Please don't misunderstand me, the food choice was ample for our needs but there is a big difference. The food was well presented and cooked and the dining area clean and spacious. The quality of the drinks/alcohol was a little disappointing. Most cocktails and drinks in general were diluted down. There are 2 good sized pools but not enough sunbeds which only encourages \"get your towel in it first thing behavior\" Definitely recommend it but go knowing that it's a 3* and you'll definitely get great value for money. Not withstanding everything above we would of happily visit again. Albuferia is worth a visit as is the classy Vilamoura with it's marina.

Wonderful stay

We enjoyed everything about the hotel. The staff were all so friendly and efficient, spacious clean rooms and communal areas, and a convenient location for nearby towns. It was a 15 minute walk to the beach. We were all inclusive and the food was varied, fresh, and really enjoyable. The pool did get a lot busier our last few days as the weekend and school holidays started. Last 2 days there were too many inflatables and ball games in the south pool, which had been quiet. But everything else was really great.

Great hotel, fantastic service. Rooms are huge and have everything you need. Pools are beautifully maintained, but need more loungers (there is space). Also bar a bit expensive for those of us not all-inclusive. Good handful of nice bars restaurants in immediate vicinity though, and plenty more in Olhos d’agua (20 min walk) , or Albufeira (10 min taxi) in want something more lively.

Patio Suite hotel was very welcoming and comfortable for our family visit to the Algarve. My sister and I did a self catering but my other family did an all inclusive.

We did eat in the cafe once, the meal was nice but prices in the catering in the hotel was kind of expensive so went out to eat or make our meal.

The location of the area is quiet, there's a mini supermarket close by and few restaurants around. I believe it 30-35min drive to the airport.

The view from our terrace was nice and room was comfortable. I believe there's a karoke bar near by and one Saturday got so loud could not sleep properly but my other family facing the other direction was lucky not to hear anything which was good.

I'm not sure if I got the name correctly but Mariama on the reception desk was always so pleasant and helpful and when our light tripped the staff was there promptly even when we needed soap both him and the staff who helps with the baggage were so accomodating.

Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it. Our thanks to the team at the Patio Suite.
