Jabugo Holidays

A beautifully situated and well appointed boutique hotel graced with courteous, efficient, multilingual staff. The pool and decking is framed with magnificent Mediterranean pines and rosemary. Gym is well equipped and the breakfast buffet abundant. Bedlinen is the finest, softest most silken cotton and the pillows provide a sweet slumber. Clientele in July was a mix of Portuguese ( a good sign when you stay in a country that its own people choose it) and some English, Irish and Italians. Guests were mostly well behaved.

Great facilities and close to the beach

Tucked away in a peaceful corner of a lively tourist area, this resort strikes the perfect balance — welcoming for children without being overwhelmingly kid-focused, ensuring adults can truly unwind.

I liked having the adult only pool area.

Very central location, lovely rooftop pool. Cleaners were present every day if you want them, and also happy not to clean if you ask them not to. It's a bit noisy as close to a main square, although ear plugs are provided. Very comfortable bed. They don't have staff on reception but rooms are easily accessed via a code sent by email.
