Boavista Golf & Spa - Bela Colina Holidays
Excellent quality furnishings and the towels were lush. The Spa is also good, I had one of the best sports massages ever. The gym equipment is a bit tired though but functional.

Hotel Algarve Casino
Staff were lovely and rooms really clean. No complaints about the hotel. The resort was pretty much closed though, hard to even find a place for dinner. I know it’s out of season but this was dead. Would be hard without a car.

Belmar Spa & Beach Resort
Nice one bedroom apartment, close to the beach with a nice restaurant, but restaurant in a hotel was closed for dinner, very inconvenient. Spa and pool only open till 6 pm, just the time to relax. And no robs in the room. Usually hotels with spa provide them. Next time will look for another ...
