Friendly hotel for perfect relaxation *

For me, the perfect hotel in the autumn or spring chill out! If you have a lot of action and disco fever in the night needs, this is the wrong place at the wrong time, but if you're looking for peace and quiet and wonderful beaches and bays to yourself to experience, this is the one spot on. You can offer very good sport possibilities, relaxed fit to get through the winter. The weather in the Algarve at this time is still wonderfully warm, when the sun shines and it has mostly (rain clouds are being driven from the Atlantic wind mostly just as quickly, as you'have arrived). The hotel lies about three-kilometer outside of armacao de Pera, in a wonderful steep coast. You have a choice, the steep coast either direction West hiking and almost endlessly long anytime again new bays to be explored or one goes to direction armacao, where the steep coast from a long sandy beach is replaced. If the weather does not fit, the hotel offers excellent sports facilities with a large fitness room and a heated indoor pool, the necessary length, in order to really be able to swim (around this seasons always find it enough room, Except carnival, the hotel and pool filled by Spanish and Portuguese). Then have a sauna, and a steam room ready (the latter the more often striked, here would be ' appropriate time an investment). Internet (wireless) is also offered, since this year, unfortunately for extra charge (questionable ' progress' of Pestana group). As has often been told me, outside of the hotel there are excellent opportunities to play golf (well at fair prices). With the rental car you also has the possibility, many highlights in the area to explore (especially the westernmost point of Europe with the spectacular West Coast or fantastic walks in the mountains, for example, at the time of the mimosas bloom, a sea of yellow). The whole hotel has a friendly seventies retro-charm with much light-green, turquoise and orange (but not from this time, the hotel was completely renovated a few years ago). The rooms are nice equipped, in good condition and those on the sea side have a great view (depending, at which time of the day in the sun on the balcony to enjoy wants, in accordance to the Himmelrichtung! Otherwise were also sufficient couches in the huge garden on the cliff). The decor is very pleasant with a small kitchen (fridge, sink, and dishes as well as Cook possibility/microwave). A larger supermarket only about ten minutes walk away, you can also a small something cook your own. Breakfast is based on a wide buffet offered (for example always 2-3 sorts of fresh fruit. Oranges, grapefruit, etc. prepared meals), hot rather English breakfast is served. What a webig lavish but unüberwinderliches problem seems: hard and soft boiled eggs in separate containers to offer, so that was always a gambling. The nice waiter but on request at any time ready, an egg in their ability to communicate to serve, the expense could be simply avoid). A visual treat is the huge picture windows toward garden and the sea in the breakfast room is. Last but not the least is extremely friendly and courteous staff of the hotel to mention, in the usual relaxing Portuguese art never pushy, but always helpful is. In particular at the front desk and with the waiters was possible English conversation, at the front desk often also German, a very friendly German customer service is available.
