Barrocal Golf Holidays

We had an excellent stay while on vacation in Carvoeiro. The location is perfect for walking to everything in town. The hotel is newly renovated in tasteful neutrals. Our room was comfortable with a lovely queen size bed and a/c and the beautiful pool was part of our daily routine. Outdoor seating area on the patio near the bar was perfect for evenings chatting with family and playing cards. Breakfast buffet was great, with many options. All the staff were welcoming and nice. Highly recommended!

Stayed here in August with my husband and 6 year old for 12 nights. The rooms are modern, clean and beds very comfortable. The pool was the highlight, it's huge, with 2 smaller kids pools. Plenty of sun loungers and nice fresh towels every day - so no need to bring any. The breakfast was fantastic! We paid for the buffet one evening which was very expensive and I wasn't impressed with the food at all. The Italian restaurant was nice but overpriced. The hotel is located next to the beach which is great but we discovered all of the sun loungers had reserved signs on them so we couldn't stay long with no shade. There really isn't much around the hotel at all, we ended up paying quite a bit to go into albuferia in the evenings. Overall we loved the hotel itself but wouldn't go back due to the location and very overpriced food and drinks.

A beautifully situated and well appointed boutique hotel graced with courteous, efficient, multilingual staff. The pool and decking is framed with magnificent Mediterranean pines and rosemary. Gym is well equipped and the breakfast buffet abundant. Bedlinen is the finest, softest most silken cotton and the pillows provide a sweet slumber. Clientele in July was a mix of Portuguese ( a good sign when you stay in a country that its own people choose it) and some English, Irish and Italians. Guests were mostly well behaved.

Hotel product is excellent but service level terrible in the restaurant. They obviously haven’t been able to get the staff in this new and more remote location leading to a dreadful experience for diners. Main courses at dinner came out with 20 minutes between them and breakfast time orders had a 50% chance of not being delivered. Lots of stressed guests and staff as a result. We gave up on the restaurant as it was so slow and negative and we cooked in the room instead. That’s not the way it should be and I would say the restaurant experience makes the hotel unbookable unless they can sort it out.

Breakfast was good enough and bed was comfortable.

Safe and very family friendly . Some staff will go out of there way to help you.

Beautiful resort with a very calming vibe. It’s very big but never felt like there were lots of people around or overcrowded. Staff are very friendly & helpful. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Large variety of options at breakfast. The only issue we faced is that it’s quite far away from anything, the nearest shop for amenities is a 25 minute walk away, and you need to get taxis everywhere as there isn’t anything in walking distance or any local transport options, although the resort offers free drop off/pick up at the Marina 3 times per day. Would highly recommend for a relaxing and luxurious break.
