10/10 Excellent

This an older property but has charm! Easily assessable for wheelchairs! Beech counted to property by a boardwalk.
Antonio, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

This hotel is situated in one of the most beautiful beaches in Algarve. It is really on the beach, so it is a great place for people with disabilities or young children. Yes, it is dated, but the staff and constant remodeling make it very comfortable. It is a favorite among older crowds, and many people return to it year after year. We have stayed here for many years and will continue to do so.
Ana, 7-night trip

8/10 Good

Good value

Clean room. Pleasant efficient restaurant,bar, housekeeping staff. Reception needs updating and reception staff are not particularly welcoming and appear disinterested until itcomes to paying.
Andrew, 7-night trip

8/10 Good

Bathroom needed updating looked tired and dirty
Robert, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

In itself, the property is beautiful. Very clean and the bed was super comfortable. The pool area is well kept and it a lovely large pool. Unfortunately, my whole experience of the place was marred by a very rude receptionist who decided to accuse me of stealing part of the deposit I had left for my pool towel. She insisted that she had placed two 10 euro notes onto the counter when she had only placed one. It was especially upsetting as it was my birthday and my first conversation of the day. I would not go back due to this member of staff.

José, 10-night trip

6/10 Okay

Hotel is in a great location right on the beach and in walking distance of bars and restaurants. The grounds are attractive and well kept with pools, play area, tennis courts etc. However the building is very dated and badly needs renovation.
