We have a very nice, relaxing vacation spent. It is a very peaceful hotel. A pleasant atmosphere, without hecticness in the dining room and with lots of space. Some things should be renewed,

The hotel lies a bit out of the way but in a very nice location nearby the cliffs. From here you can very nice Cliff migrations start.
The hotel makes a clean impression. Also the staff, inclusive service, is friendly and helpful. The hotel management ( Patricia Correia general manager) I would like to especially indicate, the me in a conflict with the car rental Goldcar Faro, helped.
The room was well furnished, ( with a fridge) clean and silent. The towels were regularly changed.
Also the food was good and varied. For breakfast were eno... Read more

Here we have a beautiful, relaxing vacation spent. The weather was for the season unlikely good, because we could every day dreamlike Cliffs hiking undertake, the hotel room was very big and spacious, clean, and the staff are very friendly, especially Valter from the restaurant and Jose the gardener!

As a traveler wrote, if you have a lot of traveling, is the building quite okay. Breakfast is rather bland, the waiters surly and bored. For breakfast are the tables only after asking newly set. If you the bed linen a little aside adopted, you see the unclean bed. Change of towels in a' four star hotel' all 2 days is not normal. Our room was worn...
A recommendation you can only very partially express.
To Their Credit we have to say, that the pool area very well maintained, but towel service none! Read more

the hotel is a very good condition. It seems freshly renovated to be. Our room was like new. The service at the restaurant, as well as the food are ideal. The pool area was great, and the sauna are free of charge. Really good! The beach is really amazing. Great vacation! I'm coming again, that's for sure! Read more
