This was a last minute purchase as we looked for a sunny vacay. We were certainly not disappointed. The weather was amazing, the beach is gorgeous and the resort was beautiful. We did half board which was a great option as the food is so good. The Champaign bar is a must.

8/10 Very good

Pine cliffs was beautiful and had some great amenities like the beach, pool, restaurants and spa. My husband and I stayed here five nights as part of our honeymoon and enjoyed our stay! Service was excellent and property was beautiful! Only reason I am rating it as 4 stars instead of 5 is that it was overall pretty expensive and felt like they nickle and dimed you a bit. For example, they had live TV but it cost 10 euros to rent a movie. If you wanted a drink besides for beer you were pretty much guaranteed to spend at least 14 euros and any average meal on site was around 20-25 euros not including sides or beverages. Any meal on site was very easy to hit 100 euros for just two people. That being said, we still thoroughly enjoyed the resort, went golfing, enjoyed the beach and grassy areas for lounging, breakfast was included and had a great selection. Room was clean, comfortable, and modern yet still inclusive of the culture. Would love to come back, just might do more meals/drinks off the campus.

Gorgeous resort, relaxing vibe

Spectacular last minute family trip to the southern coast of Portugal! Needed to escape the hustle and bustle of Seville for some R&R and Pine Cliffs Hotel was perfect for us! The grounds are spectacular, beautifully groomed with direct beach access. The restaurant directly on the beach served up high quality ceviche and drinks and there were ample beach chairs with shade available for our use. The 1 bedroom suite we reserved was spacious and clean though did show some signs of wear but was still clean with comfortable linens and towels. The breakfast bullet provided plenty of options to choose from with plenty of fresh fruit, pastries and the typical fare of higher end buffets (espresso drinks, juice options/smoothies, omelette station, etc). We would definitely stay again next time we visit southern Portugal!

8/10 Very good

Stayed here for a mother/daughter vacation with my 7 year old. Was a beautiful property, we felt very safe and comfortable and it was the perfect hotel for kids. Lots of other kids to play with and tons of amenities geared towards kids. My daughter loved the kids club, games room, buffet and endless selection of pools to jump in. I held back one star on this review because there were several occasions where we felt like there was not enough waitstaff to handle the volume of guests and demands. We had to wait quite a long time for food service a few times and had to seek out staff to order food and drinks when lounging on the lawn. Other than that, it was great and I would definitely revisit with even more of our family because there is something for everyone and it has a great family atmosphere.

Not luxury

This is not a 5-star ”luxury” resort, 4star at best. Location is beautiful, but service falls short, food at the resort extremly mediocre (served cold!) with high prices that dont correspond to the quality. They forgot to give me a ”towel card”, I asked for vanity kits and they left sewing kits intead, the in/out-checking process took forever, always queue at the reception, the reception staff always seemed stressed, I was seated in a corner during breakfast and got an half empty water bottle. Several resturants but keeping up with their opening hours is a project in itself. I had booked a room with resort view, apparently resort view is the parking lot…Happy they changed it for me. The grounds is however stunning, the views amazing and proximity to the beach, the spa/gym good, so sadly such a failure by the management regarding ”luxury”…It simply is not. If you want real luxury/personalized service and good food choose elsewhere.

Not Ideal for Couples Seeking Relaxation

We embarked on a relaxing vacation, with the intention of unwinding and enjoying some peaceful moments. However, it's important to highlight that this hotel resort is primarily geared towards families with small kids, and we found ourselves surrounded by young children throughout our stay. Considering that we have older kids, this came as a surprise. We did appreciate the hotel itself, and our room offered a fantastic view. The food was good, and the service was satisfactory. However, we couldn't help but notice the lack of designated adult-only areas at the resort. With more than 7 pools available, it was disheartening to find that not even one of them was reserved for adults seeking tranquility. The presence of kids breaking pool rules, such as jumping, ball games, and using huge inflatable beach animals in the pool, made it less enjoyable for us. Additionally, the absence of lifeguards overseeing the larger pools raised concerns, as we witnessed many hazardous situations that could have been averted with proper supervision. It seemed as though the staff were not intervening when rules were being blatantly disregarded. Our experience could have been improved if there had been at least one area designated for adults and if the hotel's rules were diligently enforced. We feel inclined to recommend this resort primarily to families with kids. For couples or families seeking a peaceful and relaxing experience, we regretfully cannot endorse this resort as the ideal choice.
