The hotel is beautiful and had direct access to a stunning beach called Praia da Falésia. Breakfast was excellent. We appreciated being able to use the facilities on our last day after checkout, including the spa changing room, to shower after swimming. What could be improved is that we weren’t offered even a glass of water at check-in (even after asking) or with the buffet dinner, we didn’t get our complimentary drinks, and the room had many flies circling over the bed when we arrived. Despite these annoying details, it was a great stay overall and we would recommend staying here.
