"Perfection in this place’s simplicity. It was an idyllic vacation spot. Walking distance to the village but removed enough to be ultra peaceful. The free parking, pool and breakfast were all a huge plus. We were surprised how close we were to the boardwalk walking trails and really cool cave hikes. Sunsets galore and wonderful restaurants and shops near by. Loved it!"

"The breakfast included in the stay was excellent and the outside seating was also very nice with a great view. Short walk to many restaurant options. Loved the location."

It's a lovely modern hotel. Rooms are fabulous and the property has a rooftop infinity pool with plenty of loungers. The property has a really nice spa with an indoor pool that you pay to use.
Food is good and reasonably priced. The property overlooks the river Arade with really nice views of Portimao Marina to the left and Tivoli Marina to the right and the fishing village of Ferragudo straight ahead.
It's about a 15 to 20 minute walk up to Praia Da Rocha that offers a large number of...

The only downside to the hotel is the location. The only reason it's a downside is because the beach is so beautiful that it's a shame not to be beside it. However, the hotel provides a free shuttle bus to and from the beach and if that doesn't suit, taxis to the beach only cost €5 anyway so it's very cheap.
The hotel staff were extremely nice, friendly and helpful and the hotel rooms were spotless and cleaned thoroughly every day. I would recommend this hotel.

We stayed in a three bed apartment, they are spotlessly clean, modern and very spacious. They have everything you need. Nice bathrooms & showers, great Ac with remote controls. Atomatic shutters. The staff are friendly and helpful. The pools are good & clean . However it could do with better sun furniture & some extra chairs around the smaller pools. Main pool was being refurbished during the time we stayed. Food is goodish, but a little over priced especially for breakfast. We booked last...

When you pull up outside you may think you have arrived at the wrong place, judging by the photos online.. don't be fooled by it's modest outside. These apartments are gorgeous. Views are spectacular. Everything is a couple of minutes walk. There is a pizza place right underneath with fantastic pizzas. The staff in jardins are very helpful and friendly. We were on the 23rd floor. But a lift goes all the way. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. We will be back

Once again, the best experience in Hotel Vila Gale- the staff go out of their way to make sure that everything is to the highest standard. I never leave reviews but feel this hotel is deserving of one.

Stayed for 13 days in November 2014. Very good overall impression.
Very quiet environment in and around the hotel (in November), many great beaches around (Coelha, Sao Rafael, Castelo), absolutely incredible cliffs (!!!).
Ocean water warm enough to swim even in the winter months. Swam several times, the only problem was high waves.
There's not so much "civilization" around the hotel, which was also a good issue, especially if you need a quiet place for the stay, but the nearest city...
