10/10 Exceptional

This is an outstanding hotel, with great customer service. For example, I said I liked the tea at breakfast - and I then had (without asking) a gift of tea sent to my room by hotel management. Absolutely outstanding! The one minor development is I was there with my 14 year old son. He wasn’t allowed anywhere near the indoor pool. This policy needs a rethink.
Mark, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed the property very much. The hotel was busy however always found a space at the beach. We enjoyed the friendly staff and the other guests very much. The room was beautiful and clean. The Vip access from Expedia in general never incudes a room upgrade. We did have a bottle of wine waiting tho so that's always nice. We would definitely return to this property. Also the breakfast was really fantastic. The best overall on our trip around Portugal.
Susan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice place. Dinner menu was okay and fairly expensive and they bring appetizers without asking and then charge you later. Also the bathroom shower is disappointing. The open glass and tiny shower tub combo makes it very cold when you shower Otherwise the property was very nice.

Never again

The hotel was lovely... But i complained from the 2nd day there about children running about naked urinating next to the pool 4 times i complained to front of house To no avail

Private retreat

Fantastic stay! Every day we went out exploring the area we were so happy to get back to our property! Besides the beautiful grounds and multiple pools on the property, you essentially have your own private beach. In theory, I believe anyone could enjoy this beach from another entrance point, but during our 5-day stay it was uncrowded and for the most part, only accessed by other hotel guests. You felt like you had the place to yourself! The breakfast was great and our room was comfortable and spacious (though a bit dated). A lot of amenities from tennis and padle courts to beaches and pools plus ,many inviting spaces to sit and relax throughout the beautifully manicured property.
Kristen, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My number one reason for booking this hotel was that I wanted access to the private beach, which was absolutely perfect and I enjoyed every minute of my time on it. It’s a gorgeous beach, with very comfortable chairs and lots of shade. The hotel itself is lovely, the grounds expansive. Make sure you’re in good shape, there’s a lot of stairs and a lot of walking uphill, which, of course leads to beautiful views! The staff were extremely friendly and very helpful. A big thanks to Ramon for his recommendation at eating at Joao restaurant in Guia. Amazing PiriPiri and the yummiest tomatoes ever. The hotel includes water for the room and coffee, but that’s pretty much it. For the cost, I’ve stayed in places which were equally nice, but included more amenities and little treats for guests, either in the room, or on the resort, and usually would include breakfast. The restaurants are unbelievably overpriced, and if you have a car, there are many delicious options within driving distance that are more local, authentic Portuguese experience. Overall, we had an excellent stay, and I would definitely recommend this hotel and visit again.

We loved this resort! We had a Junior Suite garden view and it was beautifully decorated and situated. Spacious and very comfy beds. The reception team were wonderful, especially Andrea for giving us the welcome tour. The resort is beautiful, gardens well maintained, lovely spa and a spacious gym. Pools were lovely as well. Unfortunately one waiter was a bit grumpy on the first night, but everything else was perfect. Highly recommend!!

To be improved

Super schöner und gepflegter Garten. Tolle Aussicht aufs Meer. Flächenmässig grosse Anlage. Durchwachsener Service auf dem Zimmer, im Valet Parking und im Restaurant. 5 Sterne Preise, aber leider kein 5 Sterne Service. Restaurant und Bar ebenfalls 5 Sterne Preise , jedoch nicht diese Qualität. Nach selbiger Google Bewertung halbherzige Nachfrage warum. Jedoch keine Geste. Kein Willkommensdrink , ausser Wasser, oder Abschiedsgeschenk. Sehr schade bei diesem tollen, frisch renoviertem Anwesen
