Old property. The kitchen door handle was broken. The bathroom tap kept dripping, no soap in kitchen. Frayed old towels. Baed room AC started dripping water on day 2 and had to shut it off. Lady at the reception unhelpful and made comments about too many tourists. Overall, not recommended.

Nice lodging units. We got upgraded to a 2 bedroom unit. The exteriors looks amazing. The interiors are awesome. The kitchen had everything you need, including a dishwasher and a washing machine. The pool looked amazing. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Many people were in resort for long stay and repeated customers. They had their own restaurant but were not far away from downtown full of restaurants and shopping.

Very average accommodation

Basic hotel accommodation but well located. Our room required some maintenance during our 4 day stay. Took two requests to have these items corrected. Beds were hard. Wifi worked well. This was our second time staying at this facility but we won’t stay again. Not well managed in my opinion.

Had a lovely stay in a superior two bed townhouse with sea view. Apartment was spacious, clean (cleaned every day) and comfortable and had everything you need including air con, fly screens across the windows / patio doors, dishwasher, freezer and lovely powerful hot showers. Both the downstairs patio and the roof terrace had tables and chairs and sunbeds - the rooftop terrace being private and out of sight of neighbours. The hotel is well situated for a short easy walk into town. Unusually for us we ate three nights in the hotel restaurant as it was so good - fantastic quality food plus such friendly service and nice ambience. The hotel grounds are well kept with lots of attractive plants and trees and there’s plenty of parking. My only improvement suggestion would be more comfortable patio chairs!

The villa was spacious, well-equipped with all amenities, and conveniently located just a short walk from the beach. The reception staff were very helpful and provided useful information for first-time visitors to the area. The property features a lovely pool, sauna, and restaurant, with beautiful ocean views from the patio and terrace. It is also situated right along the famous Seven Hanging Valleys Trail. The only issue during our stay was an unexpected water shut-off on both days. We would have appreciated prior notice so we could prepare accordingly. Overall, our stay was very enjoyable and relaxing.

Super hôtel bien situé si vous aimez marcher pour de la randonnée ou vous rendre à la plage. Moins touristique qu’ailleurs, si vous étiez sans voiture, il faut beaucoup marcher pour aller à Carvoeiro, mais ça fait digérer des très bons restaurants de cette belle ville. Hôtel tranquille avec beaucoup d’espace. Très bon rapport qualité-prix. On vous recommande les pistes de randonnées pour des superbes vues! On aura de beaux souvenirs, mais on reviendra!

The washing machine was half filled with dirty water that smelled horrible. The entire room and hallway smelled. We got over this issue and the inability to wash our clothes midway through our trip but then the roaches started running around our room and we were done. The front desk did move use to a new unit at 1130pm for which we were thankful.
