    I booked a room with an exceptionally comfortable bed, a safe box, TV set, and a mini bar fridge. I greatly enjoyed the superb restaurant and the food was great. Had a very relaxing stay for first visit, recommend this place: D

    amazing breakfast
    outdoor pool
    basic room

    The breakfast spread was to die for, and we loved unwinding in the outdoor pool and sauna after a day of adventures. The only downside was that our room felt a bit simpler than expected, but it was still comfy enough 😄

    clean pool area
    limited breakfast choices

    The pool area was super clean and we always managed to get sunbeds.

    The breakfast buffet lacked fresh and varied options.

    Pools with ocean views, Informative staff regarding local attractions, Accessible facilities for disabled guests

    Improving air conditioning efficiency would really enhance comfort during warmer days!!! Addressing the issues with room locks could prevent unnecessary hassle and frustration!!!

    The suite was spacious and quiet. Very comfortable beds. Nice swimming pools. We were provided with plastic bathinette for our baby without asking (there was only shower) which was kind,

    Breakfast was disaster. Very very poor choice (and even poorer when you arrived just before 10.30). Pieces of onion in fruit salad (not only once),no yoghurt.We stayed 12 nights and there was no change, no improvement, English speaking staff was trying to help, the portuguese ones seemed to enjoy it. No shampoo available in the bathroom, just soap in containers.

    My feeling while at the hotel was always more space per guest than any other one I recently stayed. The staff was very friendly, evidently perfectly trained. I liked the spa facilities, which I used extensively. I will definitely suggest staying here to my friends.

    Not to say I did not like it at all, but the food could be more varied.
