Mertola 2021 Holidays

Hotel is in an excellent position for traveling throughout the algarve. Is not near a noisy area and there are plenty of good restaurants close by. Unfair to be critical in Covid-19 period regarding amenities as most were mothballed to a degree. Staff were very helpful.

Absolutely great location and the staff was magnificent, Thiago at the front desk was incredibly detailed explaining and suggesting alternatives for all our questions. We can’t wait to visit them again.

Beautiful location overlooking the ocean with amazing swimming pools. Staff was most accommodating.

We had a lovely stay. The rooms were comfortable and roomy. The breakfast was good. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bar menu could have a couple more light meals on it. You do need a car to get into Carvoeiro.

We have stayed at Monte Santo many times sine 2013, but obviously had a long gap over the last 2 years due to the pandemic. Although the resort still remains lovely and overall an attractive place to stay, we have definitlery noticed a gradual decline in maintenence both with the apartments and the grounds. The apartmnets are begining to look tired particularly the kitchens, internal walls need painting, the grass isnt cut regulary anymore and there are weeds in gutters and in pavements, making the place look scruffy compared to how it used to be, rather immnaculate. The complex is in decline and has seen its better years. Maid service is no longer daily. Its still lovely overall and we would go again due to familiarality as we have been over 10 times, but its definitrly no longer 5 star in our opinion, but a solid 4 star.
