Algarve Adventure Holidays

Staff were friendly and helpful. Great rooms and facilities. Everything was fantastic except food. Food was average.

Really enjoyed the stay, room was lovely and the shower was incredible. Buffet breakfast was really good, buffet dinner not so good. One lifeguard seemed to really hate English people and often told off the children for playing with a ball or jumping in. Overall a nice stay and would go again.

Breathtaking views, great service. Beautiful facilities!

Small property with personalised service. Food is excellent, rooms are comfortable and well furnished. Pools and beach are lovely.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Grand Muthu, and it’s somewhere we would come back to. However, it’s important to know what to expect. We would be coming back for the atmosphere, but essentially nothing else. Positives: - The pool was the biggest highlight, it was large enough that even when it was packed there was plenty of space. (Just make sure to grab a spot before 9am) It was also very clean. - Proximity to the beach was great, we were able to end our days with a beach walk, which had beautiful views. - Excellent air conditioning. - The location was great. New town was a quick walk, old town was a quick taxi as well as the Albufeira Marina. - Looked better than surrounding hotels. Negatives - This hotel shows its age, a lot of damage and not updated spaces. While it was reasonably cleaned, it still felt old. - Housekeeping was okay, we came back to a messily made bed, or only one towel instead of two. We ended up buying our own soap because even when requested it was not replaced. - We did see several cockroaches both outside and inside the hotel. As well as lots of ants inside our room. - The absolute worst thing was the food. The aquabar had decent food, but the listed partner restaurants were horrible. A lot seemed like microwaved or store bought packaged food. We did enjoy ourselves but we would not get the food package again, and our expectations would be to relax and enjoy the beautiful pool / beach as well as explore the nearby towns more.

Overall we had a positive experience. The hotel is dated and needs updating (which is apparently happening this fall). The rooms are all carpeted which is notoriously difficult to clean. That being said, the beds were comfortable. Everything is spotless, they are always cleaning and house keeping was excellent. The breakfast was great, nice to have it included. Waitstaff is almost too attentive, constantly coming by to clear your plates. We had the dinner buffet two nights and I was not impressed. Options were limited and I felt there were better options outside the resort. Granted walking to local restaurants isn’t ideal for those with mobility issues (hills, uneven terrain), but the food was great and reasonably priced. The bjggest letdown about Portugal as a whole? The beaches are amazing but the water is absolutely freezing! I am not exaggerating when I say it can’t be above 60 degrees. Sadly we couldn’t even enjoy the water because it was unbearable.

This hotel is a luxury resort with staff that go out of their way to be helpful and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. The setting is beautiful and it is quiet and peaceful. Food in all the restaurants is amazing. Rooms are beautiful. Spacious grounds with many areas to sit and relax or swim.

Comfortable rooms. Very peaceful situation. Good selection of food at the buffet breakfast. A beautiful view of the coastline, but a longer walk to the beach than anticipated, so not great for everyone. Overall a relaxing stay.
