Ilha da Culatra Cheap Holidays

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.

Had a fantastic stay at Vidamar Resort Algarve, a really easy and quick check in. Got our room keys, and hired two towels (fee was repaid upon check-out) and the room was spacious, well lit and all appliances worked too! The shower was spacious, and the mirror was well lit. Very comfy bed, and a spare pillow was in the room if needed also. Balcony gave great views onto the golf course next door, with little to no road noise, and even through the massive windows, the sun was well blocked out by the blackout curtains. Breakfast was a very good selection, from full English to meats and cheeses and eggs cooked to your own preference. Didn't try out the buffet evening meal, so can't comment on that. Swimming pool was well attended at all times by life guards, and there were plenty of sun loungers, bean bags and parasols for everyone to have their own space. Staff were always pleasant, and our room was clean. Would come back again, for sure!

Staff were great and the food was very good.

After our five day stay, I am happy to share my experience because I see lots of value at this property. PRAISE ! Large rooms, roomy balconies ! Huge pool with tall palms ! Great location : beach and city center are 10 minutes walk away ! Best breakfast of the four hotels we stayed at while in Portugal ! Claudio gave us a tour upon our arrival; we felt very welcome. ! Romulus our breakfast waiter greeted us with a hearty "good morning!" every day. ! Also awesome were: The breakfast service manager and the chef whose sunny side up eggs were beautiful to see before they were found to be hot and delicious! Sounds like a great place right? Please read on... DISBELIEF ? Why wasn't there a real hairdryer in my bathroom? ? You want me to pay extra to use the safe in my room?! ? This one upset me because I didn't feel trusted: I had to walk to the front desk and leave a €20 deposit in order to have two towels to use at the pool! POTENTIAL This place has great potential but it feels like it's run by an accountant. Hang the accountant! Instead, hang a tapestry or two. Focus on finding the flourishes that surprise and endear patrons to your brand. All the best!

We stayed at the hotel as a group of friends in a triple connecting room, room 209. As we were getting closer to the trip, I was a little bit concerned about some of the negative reviews recently left on Google reviews; given the price, I didn’t go in to expect a platinum five star hotel, and in all honesty, I set my expectations a lot lower! I needn’t have done this, we had a fantastic stay, Thursday to Sunday. The aesthetics as you approach the hotel had already started to put my mind at ease. The triple room was amazing and surpassed our expectations, three en suites, a huge balcony spanning the width too, we loved it. Clean, with everything you could need. No noise from adjoining rooms at all. We had the premium all inclusive option which meant we had access to the spa, premium drinks options and could dine one night for free at the a la carte restaurant. Would return and highly recommend!

it was quiet and safe and clean, my biggest complaint is that you pay $350 a night and you don't even get a beach lounger or umbrella, you have to robbed by the beach people for an umbrella and beach chair. This should be provided to resort clients.
