Cabo de Santa Maria Island Adventure Holidays

Peaceful area, the staff were very friendly and helpful with getting around

Clean room, lovely location and amazing staff

Clean room. Very friendly staff. Essentials in the kitchen for making meals. Enjoyed our stay.

Clean room, found it odd that cleaning staff still cleaned the room despite putting up the sign to keep out. Other than that, staff was friendly and it had AC

Everything about the property was perfect and beautiful

Hotel Review Our stay was overall very pleasant. The staff were great—friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. The rooms were large, spacious, and well-appointed, and we appreciated being accommodated for a room change to get a better view. The amount of closet space in the suite was also fantastic, which is a rare treat in most hotels. The food was very good, especially the salads, which were fresh and full of flavour. Some of the meats, however, were a bit hit or miss—some lacked tenderness or depth of taste—but overall the dining experience was enjoyable. Would be nice to have real juices as well. One area that could be improved is housekeeping. The cleaning style followed what I was told is more of an American approach, where the beds aren’t crisply made—more of a “cover pulled over” look. Once I realised that, I ended up making the bed myself to get it looking neater. There were also a few minor details missed, like wine stains on the table that hadn’t been wiped properly. If that’s the intended cleaning style, it might be helpful for guests to have some basic cleaning supplies available, though ideally, surfaces should just be cleaned as part of the service.

The apartments are lovely, clean, spacious and airey and the staff are friendly and helpful

The location and room and amenities and staff were amazing! The resort is a well run operation with staff that are very supportive and able to answer. Any questions you have. The breakfast buffet was definitely a five star feature and while we were only able to stay for a couple of days we would definitely go back there again and recommend to others. We did have a car rental so we’re able to venture out further than the local area but if you didn’t, you could still walk to the three or four feature beaches to see the caves and grotto that are nearby. A highlight of our 15 day vacation!

We loved the breakfast, which was different than any place we have ever stayed. Basically you pick whatever you would like; pastries, toast, eggs, meats, cheeses, juices, coffee, and make your own. The kitchen is excellent and always available. This was so convenient! The pool and pool area are very nice, and although we didn't use it, this would be great for kids. The entire facility is kept really clean. Although it is not located either on the beach or directly in town it is really convenient to either, and there is a large grocery store about 150 yards away. We walked every single day and thoroughly enjoyed it. Alvor, I think, is one of the best towns to stay at in this part of the Algarve. The town center, unlike many other places we visited, seems like something that preceded tourism, in that it is located right on the river and has character, but with tons of shopping, bars and restaurants, but it is small enough to get to know. Really a lovely town.

Apartment roomy , clean and kitchen fully equipped. Best of all it has English tv.

The room was very clean and extremely spacious. The bed was terrible though, was almost better to sleep on the ground. They pushed two twin beds together to make a bigger bed, so there was in gap in the middle. The bathroom was wonderful and the shower was high pressured and hot. The hotels outdoor pool was closed, so we were excited to see they had indoor pool, until I found out you have to pay 20€ a person to use it. So, no pool or sauna for me and my husband. Breakfast was lovely, lots of options for food. The coffee was a disappointment; coffee drinks come out of one of those machines you find at a gas station. This hotel was fake fancy. Overall property seemed a little run down, needs some maintenance.

Room was beautiful, clean, comfortable, smelt great, little balcony withs ea ciew, cleaned every day and bed made, pool was cold but lovely and only a bonus when youre that close to the beach. The area is so lovely and the people just so welcoming and helpfuk. Recomme d and will be back!
