Loved the property, staff were amazing and we’d love to return, but we didn’t realize that there would be so many very young children. Meal times were chaotic and very noisy. For this reason sadly we probably wouldn’t go back.

i had stayed at this property last year, they kept the good and friendly service but the quality of certain things diminished - e.g. breakfast items. More importantly, they don't offer beach chairs/ amenities anymore, which is quite an important thing, since this is a beach hotel. All in all it seems the pandemic has force them to cut on certain things, which in my opinion is deterimental to the return of international guests

Unfortunately the beach umbrellas are from a private concession and every year negotiations have been more difficult. This year was completely impossible.

This hotel was perfect for us a young family. The balance between design hotel and being kid friendly was just right. The little touches in the kids club of the Halloween trail and a crafting activity everyday meant the kids were entertained while we relaxed. Our suite was well designed and housekeeping was excellent, including freshly baked cookies and bedtime stories for the kids. The gardens and landscaped walk to the beach were beautiful. A thoroughly relaxing break- thank you Praia Verde!

Style over substance. Aesthetically pleasing but bad design for a hotel. Noise from stone inlaid corridors & marble bedroom floors, heavy roller doors on the shower, loud clunky cupboard door mechanisms & rammed full of pre-schoolers, whose parents let them run & squeal in corridors, scream in the dining room & shout all day long at the swimming pool, which is in a baking, walled-terrace setting with nowhere for the noise to escape or air to circulate. Single pool toilet & adjoining shower not nice or kept all that clean & usually had a wet floor that you have to paddle through. This is their nominated late checkout option for a shower before the airport, no thanks! Bed comfortable and room furnishings beautiful & spacious, but without ear plugs you’ll be kept awake late and woken early. Front desk service and room turn down etc. all very good, thanks. Food in restaurant served cold first night - countless meals waiting on the pass under warming lights. Policy to serve kids meals first - by a good 20 minutes, without being asked if that’s what we’d like?! Restaurant service generally slow & a bit disorganised. Breakfast better but Cappuccinos awful, eggs forgotten one day & rather typical of the entire experience was the fact that the coffee cups are trendy metal beakers, so they burn your hands if you have any more than a half filled cup at breakfast! We had booked 5 nights (non-refundable) we managed to stay for 3. Life’s too short. Would not recommend or return.

Dear guest, We hope your return home has been excellent. Thank you for your comment and for considering us a refuge, a sign of comfort and well being. We appreciate your review of your stay and our service, improving and developing our consistency of service runs in our blood and is engraved in our DNA. We are constantly changing, by 2020 we will have completely renovated suites and in the very near future all the gaps it presents will be solved, we have huge projects. High season ist´s the high season vacations in some European countries, hence we have more children. However, the beach was deserted and high temperatures were a wonder. Outside these periods we are the quietest hotel in the Algarve hope you will make our hotel your vacation home or retreat, and it will always be a great pleasure to welcome you.

The hotel is stylish, the food is delicious, and it’s about an 8 min easy walk to the beach. Downsides, the waiting staff in the restaurant were inattentive and less than friendly at times, and the pool is basically a large, shallow paddling pool full of children and their inflatable toys. Great destination if you have a young family, not so much if you want peace and quiet!

Not sure why this isn’t a 5 star hotel!!
We had such a wonderful experience at this hotel! Every single staff is friendly but in a genuine way. The decor of the hotel is beautiful. Very modern and all the details are thought through. Breakfast is one of the best we had. There isn’t an infinit choice but everything is high quality which for me is much more important than having random options. We had a little issue with our room as at Hotels.com the the Sea View room detailed as having separate living room and kitchenette which the Panoramic room, which is cheaper, has. When we got there the room didn’t have that and they said that none of the sea view rooms have those. I’m not sure if the problem came from Hotels.com or the hotel who put the wrong info. The hotel was full and we couldn’t move but the next day they moved us and it was all fine. I contacted Hotels.com who refunded the difference that we paid for the sea view. We are already planning to go back to Algarve and we will most certainly stay again at Praia Verde Boutique Hotel.

Pluses: Nice location, less touristy, unspoiled Beach trolley Dinner area and boutique / alternative style Minuses: Lack of staff (reception, breakfast, etc) although those working were very nice Too small - small rooms, small pool, small dinning area Starting to feel run down - rooms and bathrooms, pool shower not working Generally didn’t feel good value - prices similar to those in other algarve areas with better infrastructure. The boutique nature of hotel does not justify premium pricing. More like a 4* rather than a 5*

A beautiful contemporary hotel with excellent service and food. We had a room on the third floor with amazing views. There were lots of children and we were there as a couple, this is not a criticism but if you want quietness around the pool and in the restaurant I would suggest you go out of season. On the whole a fabulous stay at this beautiful place.

Lovely hotel - quiet
We had booked a triple room for my husband, son and myself. We were surprised that we were given a room with 2 twin beds and a pull-out sofa. Needless to say, our son didn't find the sofa bed very comfortable. However, had the room been for just the two of us, the 1 bedroom suite was lovely. We had a balcony with two sets of patio doors opening up onto. The air conditioning was a little complicated so we did get a little hot in the room. The buffet breakfast which was included was excellent. If you are looking for a quiet property this is the property for you. Looking for action, it isn't.

Gracefully contemporary boutique hotel
Charming boutique hotel tucked away in pine-trees close to a wonderful sandy beach. The design is clean, food is awesome and the hotel manager is determined to make you feel home. All rooms have small kitchenettes. Great for families.

Beautiful hotel surrounded by nature.
My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights and absolutely loved it! The staff are attentive and sweet and the room was spacious, clean and had an amazing view of the ocean. The hotel is surrounded by nature and walking to the beach is peaceful and relaxing. The hotel is about and easy and beautiful 1 hour drive to the central part of the Algarve (Lagoa, Albufeira etc) and only 15 minutes from the Spanish border. We ate at the restaurant A Terra 2 times for dinner and 1 time for lunch and it was great. Breakfast was simple but delicious. There were a lot of families with young children which the hotel caters well too. We will stay here again on our next visit to the Algarve.

We went to the hotel as a couple and it certainly felt like somewhere more appropriate for families. The room was spotless and had everything you would want. But although the hotel ticked many boxes, we felt it lacked it atmosphere and small details made a real difference. A large TV was playing football in the lobby/ restaurant area which we didn’t find particularly relaxing. The bar is very much in the middle of the restaurant so there was nowhere to sit and have a quiet drink before and after dinner. We had high hopes for the restaurant having read good reviews but were sorely disappointed. The pizzas were bland and did not taste as though they had just come out of a pizza oven, the sweet potato fries were terrible and even the roasted vegetables lacked in flavour. I certainly would not recommend the restaurant to anyone. Although we went out of season, the hotel is very close to the beach which is definitely a plus. I was expecting a boutique hotel and I wouldn’t say Praia Verde fits the bill for that.

Dear Emily, Thanks for your comment. We were not at all pleased that you were not 100% satisfied with your experience. During winter, the hotel is frequented mostly by couples, only in periods of school holidays do we have more families. In relation to the restaurant, I am sad with your comment and with our provision. The restaurant is the ex-libris of the hotel and the reviews speak for themselves, hence not realizing what has happened in your meal. Thank you for your comments and we will do everything to improve. I hope you visit us soon enough to prove that it was not a bad day. Best regards, Gustavo Martins General Manager

Great place to relax
Hotel Praia Verde is the perfect place to relax. From the moment we arrived we were looked after with a welcome drink, and short tour. Breakfast was excellent with a great selection of hot and cold foods including home made breads, butter, jams and juices. Restaurant and pool bar served great food, wine and cocktails. Lovely swimming pool area. Short walk to beautiful nearby beach. Well equipped gym. Our suite had good facilities and was very clean. All the staff at the hotel worked incredibly hard, were really friendly and helpful and made it a really welcoming place to stay.

Great family stay
We had a great relaxing stay with a 3 year old. We loved the pool the food was great and we especially loved the amazing breakfast spread. The beach is very clean and sandy and there's a nice walk there from the hotel.

Stylish and relaxed - for families primarily
My husband and I felt that bit more gorgeous just by being here. Very stylish place but still informal - helped by being dominated by young family visitors. Lovely pool and great beach a 10 min walk away.

Would stay again
Only a 5/10 min walk from the beach. Some nice restaurants nearby and handy for visiting local area (we hired a car). Local beach was great and pretty clean. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful location
Very welcoming and given short tour of facilities on arrival. Fantastic room with separate living room & kitchenette, all spotless. Secluded spacious balcony. Excellent choice of breakfast food & drink. Nothing too much trouble. Small gift of biscuits left in room every afternoon. Good restaurant A Terra, used by many. We booked for 4 nights with a view to moving elsewhere for our last 3 but were so comfortable we decided to stay here the whole week. Great location with easy access to all local areas & only 30mins across the bridge to Spain. What more to say? Try it, you won't be disappointed!

Very good family friendly hotel
We stayed at Praia Verde for a short five day break with our two children (a two year old and a three month old). The staff is very friendly and they are always ready to help. Overall, the facilities are good and clean. The kitchenette in the room is handy, although we hardly used it. It is advertised as a family friendly hotel: it essentially is, they are very good with children and have a recreationist on site in the afternoon until the evening. They claim to have a "kid's club", but in fact that really is just a tiny room with a few toys, so the children get easily get bored after a while. We went in October, so it was very quiet. Maybe there are more activities during the high season. The restaurant is very good and again, the staff is (mostly) friendly. Our criticism is that, because the hotel is really quite remote, you end up mostly eating in. Because of that I think it should have a larger menu and it would be good if it changed every now and then, to avoid you getting bored of the same dishes. We stayed only five days and already did... The bed in the family room was huge and comfortable, however the sofa bed was really very uncomfortable to just sit on and watch TV. We didn’t use it as a bed as we used cots, so as an actual sofa it really could be better. During the day the restaurant is closed and the pool bar is where lunch is served. Again, the menu could be more varied. But overall the area is comfortable and pleasant, it just lacked a bit of atmosphere, such as
