A great hotel for a quiet relaxing break
We stayed for 10 days and will hopefully get back here someday. The hotel is in a great location with a beautiful breakfast terrace overlooking the sea. The pool is huge, the grounds are immaculately kept and there is no road noise, just the sound of crashing waves.

Welcoming hotel in Alvor
Lovely hotel with direct access to the beach. Only second day so still finding new experiences. The staff are lovely and Madalena is very friendly.

Disappointing
We stayed here for 6 nights from 23-29 September 2026. First impressions are that the hotel is in need of a refurbishment, it is dated and needs decorating. Our room was just average and looked shabby, especially the bathroom.
Breakfast was very busy and it was hit and miss if you got your tea or coffee, despite them asking you when shown to your table, one time I had to go hunting for a teaspoon as they were not on the tables.
At the bar one evening they had no brandy and on another occasion by the pool they had no vanilla ice cream, this is disappointing for a five star hotel, infact I would say it only just makes a four star.
On the plus side the staff are helpful and friendly.
Would we stay here again? No.
Superb service all round
As usual, this trip was amazing - thanks mostly to the great staff at every level! I have been coming here for many years and the staff are always the best part of the holiday! Sure, the views are stunning and the beach unforgettable, but the staff stand out as the best part of the experience. From the fabulous Monica at guest services, to Pedro at reception and all the staff at the bars and restaurant as well as the pool staff and the meticulous housekeeping staff, it is perfect service! The only negative would be in the buffet dinners which could be a little fresher and more imaginative, but never mind, the beautiful staff more thank make up for that minor quibble, see you all again next year, I hope.
