Needs a refurb
Very outdated hotel with hardly any toiletries. Pool are was dirty with a dead bird. Area not cleaned while we were there. Old sun beds that felt like they would cave in. Breakfast extremely limited and horrrendous coffee. Area of hotel however just above glorious beach

Great location, on the beach. Nice pool. Assortment of food for breakfast. Wifi in hotel lobby but once connected we could use it in our room. We were on the first floor. Told wifi was only available in lobby, pool, breakfast area. Could upscale their shampoo packages. Fridge in room. Very small, old tv but we were not there to watch tv. Smell from bathroom when we first arrived but comes and goes with the tide and is a city problem, smelled it in other places as well. We either got used to it or were in our hotel when the tide was right because only smelled it a few times during our stay.

Great location
Return visit to hotel, we had stayed there several years ago. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Had read previous reviews that money had been stolen from safe with no lock, this is easily resolved as lock can be hired for safe for 1 Euro daily with 15 euro returnable deposit. Hotel room comfortable, decent sized fridge in the room. Air con in rooms which we needed even in Oct as temperature hitting 30c. Bathroom had powerful shower over bath, no plug for bath. Extra pillows available from reception on request. Great location. We opted for a sea view would definitely recommend this as rooms at back of the hotel look onto a road. Building work next door which we were not aware of before we came but can honestly say we were not disturbed by the noise. Good WiFi in public areas (also managed to get access from balcony 👍). Pool area was busy but we managed to get sunbed every day, sunbed cushions need replacing. Breakfast provided cold meats, cheese, nice bread, rolls, pastries with cereals. scrambled eggs and bacon which I don’t usually eat when abroad but it was tasty. Would have liked some boiled eggs and fruit and yoghurt but breakfast was tasty enough. There is a bar next to pool which also provides snacks, we did not use this as we preferred to use the many bars and restaurants nearby but it seemed to be very popular with other guests.

One night stay at the beach
After being in big cities the previous 8 nights, it was nice to have a hotel where there was outside parking along the street with plenty of room for the van we were driving. This hotel has great views of the beach from hotel rooms. There is a nice pool area for kids to relax and play after a few hours at the beach, after waking up in the morning, and before going to bed. Proximity to beach a bonus, a 5 min walk to stairs that take you down to beach area. Breakfast was the typical European style, it was enough to fill us up for the days activities.

Location good but rooms need some help
Checked in for a one night stay. The bar and pool are awesome. Well looked after and reasonable prices for most items. The beds are a joke. Don't even try to move on them or you'll wake your neighbours up. The hotel is in a great location though which makes this one night stay tolerable. I would probably stay here again if I could transport mattress covers from Canada to Portugal.

Pleasant hotel very lose to lovely beaches
Hotel is a bit dated but has all the essentials and offers a good breakfast but with a comparatively limited choice of foods. It is right on the beach and close to shops and bars etc. The rooms facing inland overlook a busy road and are are bit noisy as a result - but the views are really great all round.

Nice basic hotel at good price in great location.
Short break stay in lively resort over Easter weekend. Good value price for clean basic hotel in great location. Due refurbishment but had everything required along with free sea view from balcony. Nice staff on reception and bar plus good cleaners. Fab pool and gardens. Didn't bother going for breakfast so cannot comment. Overall - we would return for a short break

Stayed for a weekend winter break. The hotel is in a perfect position on the quieter end of the seafront. For the price, we paid €35 , we could not fault it.

Das beste Hotel an der Algarve ;-) Die Vielfalt an Köstlichkeiten die einem am Frühstücksbüffet geboten wird, sucht seines gleichen. Köstlicher Kaffee und wechselnde Obstvielfalt. Hier könnte man nach Lust und Laune schlemmen. Das komplette Hotel, sowie die Zimmer laden zum verweilen ein. Da möchte man gar nicht zum Strand gehen der nur einige Meter vom Hotel entfernt liegt. Alles in allem. Sehr gut.
