Pleasant enough stay, staff were very attentive and assistance for moving a room to help with a less abled bodied person on our trip was done without any hassle. However the signage and directions for disabled access were pretty poor. Not all lights worked in the room and TV wire was not long enough to keep the connection in tact.
But we must mention the reception staff, who were top class, particularly Anna with her help when one of the party had an incident on returning to the hotel.

Breakfast was great and diverse. Pool and garden were nice. The Rooms need upgrading, furniture is old. I had a desk but not a chair or stool to sit on. Had tea/coffee/kettle but not 1 bottle of water. Toilet seat was a nightmare and the shower drain smell was unpleasant. The bed should have a headboard to be more comfortable. Parking the car on gravel is not great also. Close to Aquashow

An absolute gem of a little place!
Sadly, only got to stay for one day and night but had a great experience.
Welcomed by Ana, who was friendly and very helpful. Left our cases in the luggage room and spent a very hot but relaxing afternoon by the pool. The pool was surprisingly large and appreciated in the heat.
Thoroughly enjoyed the buffet style food in the restaurant in the evening, plenty of choice - fresh salads, hot options of fish, chicken and pasta and tasty desserts. A bargain at €17 each!
As we had a very early start for the airport, a packed lunch was ready and waiting for us when we checked out at 3.00am - much appreciated. Would recommend!

They need to improve the breakfast. They bring all things with the lowest quality. The coffee machine bearly gives you hot coffee or hot water for tea. the tea was very low quality and foods in general are not the best for kids. Another thing was good.

Quiet location, good for a few nights.

We had a ground floor room with comfortable beds, outdoor sitting area and modern bathroom. There is a fridge and kettle. Additional electrical points would be helpful. Stayed half board, food was OK, limited choice and obvious cost cutting compared to previous stays. Renovated restaurant is clean and bright although the grey and white decor was totally void of any character (a few decorative pieces on the wall would make such a difference). Quiet comfortable hotel, avoid if you are a fussy eater.

I am never a complainer but please read the points below before booking here:

1. Terrible location: The location of this hotel is legit close to nothing at all so be prepared to spend a lot of money on Ubers and taxis. Also to get to your room it’s like a 10 min walk from reception going through the crystal maze.

2. Unfriendly staff: The reception and kitchen staff are very unfriendly I went to go ask for cutlery and the man chased me out the restaurant telling me I have to pay for some food to use the cutlery.

3. Hygiene: Upon entering all the towels were dirty they had makeup on them and there were ants crawling around on the floor in the room. Our bed was also broken and the fridge was not working. After telling the staff about this they told us to come the following day at 9am to check if any different rooms were available and there was none.

The pictures on here also look nothing like the hotel I would never even tell my worst enemy to stay here

The pool area was really nice and looked modern. However, the rest of the hotel needs updating, including new beds. We booked our room with one double bed and and a pull out couch for our 4 years old son. When we arrived, there was two single beds pulled together and one single folding bed with very tired mattresses on top. For adults to sleep in a\"double\" bed was impossible without spliting in the middle.. So our little one slep with me whilst my partner on that folding bed!!poor partner slept on a that thing whilst paying , €700 for 6 nights!

Electricity needs updating as out bed side ligjtening was connected through extension lead, one light cable was rubbing against the bed for so ling that a protective layer was gone, a bit extreme I would say... Might end up in serious accident if not fixed.

In general hotel was clean, butbwould not choose it again as we felt that it is most focussed on Spanish and local visitors, staff (morning shift) did not speak English. My english is third language, but felt that staff should be more trained to serve breakfast as each morning was a little surprice what coffee we gonna get..

Parking was really easy as you can park right outside your room in a shade.

In the end, we left disappointed... The money we paid was not worth for the services we received...

For what you pay you cannot ask for more.The Hotel has a range of options ranging from B&B,half board,full board to all inclusive.When we first went in 2008 it was only evening meals now they have lunches instead of snacks.Primarily they cater for full board or all inclusive but unless you drink full board is the best option. For those without transport on B&B only, evening dinner purchased as an extra at the premises would cost Euro 12.99 but save Euro 1.00 on purchasing 3 or more meals at reception.
I recommend you ask for a superior room as they contain a fridge and kettle,especially for those that do not have transport or are not on all inclusive or full board.
The Hotel itself is situated in a quiet area with lawned gardens and a pond
with masses of bird life and at certain times of the year the frogs are massed in the pond.The bedrooms are a good size and the showers are roomy service is good and reception will assist you in all your requests,

Nice hotel, not far from beach and a few resturant

The hotel is very nice with a lot of facilities available such as 2 swimming pools, a large outdoor seating area, a bar, a pool table, a dining room and quite a few areas to sunbathe. Hotel staff were fantastic, so friendly and made us feel very welcome, especially Cristina and the young lady on reception. The hotel offers a free mini bus to Vilamoura and quarteira which was great. The only down fall was the rooms. The bathroom was quite inconvenient as the door got in the way of the toilet. Rooms were quite clean, but a little out dated, could do with being modernised. Also, we had to move rooms as there was an ant infestation next to the wardrobe in our room. The food was ok, breakfast offers a huge variety and we enjoyed it very much, however there could have been more of a variety for dinner, as there was only the option of either pizza or the buffet, and the buffet food was not up to standard, wouldn't eat it again.

Very disappointed with this “3star” hotel

Unfortunately our stay here wasn’t very nice, we had ants crawling through our room and bathroom, the rooms were never cleaned very well and layers of dust were found around and behind units and under the bed was even worse. The staff were lovely, apart from one or two who unfortunately let the team down and were very rude in front of customers. One staff member who came to fix a problem we had in the room was really arrogant and shrugged us off when we tried to discuss it probably because we was a younger couple. He had a very poor attitude for work and customer service.

Basic hotel in the middle of\nNowhere

The rooms were very clean and basic. The food was ok - ish. The waiters and waitresses were not a very happy bunch - no manners. The reception staff were rude. All
Inclusive means you get three meals a day and drinks from 11am-10pm but only 1 at a time and you have to finish that before getting another. No snacks available through the day. So not really all Inclusive. They do offer a free bus service to local towns as too far to walk. But they're not really run on time so don't worry if no one is there to collect you as they will turn up - just when they want. It's a lovely place if you want a quite few days away just don't expect too much

Ich habe vor Kurzem in diesem Hotel übernachtet und muss leider sagen, dass die negativen Punkte bei Weitem überwogen haben. Hier ist meine ehrliche Erfahrung:
Der einzige Vorteil:
Geräumiges Zimmer: Das Zimmer war angenehm groß und bot ausreichend Platz. Das war allerdings auch schon das einzig Positive.
Die Kritikpunkte:
Zustand & Geruch: Beim Betreten des Raumes schlug mir sofort ein unangenehmer Geruch entgegen. Zudem ist das Zimmer dringend renovierungsbedürftig – die Einrichtung wirkt alt und abgewohnt.
Mangelnder Service im Sommer: Wir hatten sehr heiße Sommertage während des Aufenthalts. Bei solchen Temperaturen wäre es ein absolutes Minimum an Gastfreundschaft gewesen, wenigstens eine gratis Flasche Wasser in der Minibar bereitzustellen.
Frühstücksbuffet: Das Angebot im Restaurant am Morgen war eine Enttäuschung. Die Auswahl beim Frühstück war extrem gering und bot kaum Abwechslung.
Sauberkeit im Restaurant: Besonders störend waren die sichtbaren Sauberkeitsprobleme im Restaurantbereich. Wenn die Hygiene beim Essen nicht stimmt, vergeht einem schnell der Appetit.
