"Unusual and very nice hotel. All staff were friendly and helpful and the included breakfast was a big plus. Bathrooms are functional and clean but not as luxorious as some at this price point. Fitness room was fine and in line with most similar hotels, the indoor pool was surprisingly a low point as there was no music or atmosphere. Great location right in the centre of the city - we will likely use this chain again when back in Portugal"

"This was such an unexpected lovely place. It’s a wellness resort with a focus on cycling and water sports - kite surfing, kite boarding as well as yoga and spa services. The environment was a natural vibe and very comfortable. It was surrounded by trees and there was a nice path to the beach. It also had two pools. The staff was amazing- very helpful and all spoke multiple languages including English. The food was exquisite and even had options for my picky diet as well as options such as Açaí bowls and smoothies. We stayed in one of the private bungalows and really enjoyed it. Lots of cycling paths nearby and the hotel has a booklet with QR codes to the rides and you can use a guide from the resort if desired. We needed a bike repair and they were very helpful."
