This hotel is located in a very nice area. Sea is about 15 minutes walking down a panoramic escalator that brings to a wonderfull natural area on the sea. The beach is quite small and not private to the hotel guests. Room with nice modern design. Food quite standard as all international hotel.

Hotel was clean, quiet, good breakfast but was let down by the evening meal on each of the 4 nights I stayed here. The hotel has a boardwalk down to the beach which is worth spending time at. Hotel provided us with a proper sized iron and board. The Internet only works in the reception area for my iPad, for... More

As the President of the 47th Annual Meeting of the European Society for Clinical Investigation, I have nothing but good things to say about the service provided by the hotel. Not only the meeting venue and rooms are amazing, as the surroundings were highly praised by all involved. I have to thank Claudia Carvalho and Sandra Esgarrancho (and Filipa Maximiano,... More

Lovely hotel with great views and garden areas. Good spa area and excellent internal and external swimming pools. Only negative is that there are not enough sun loungers at the pool areas for all guests. This may result in you having to sit on a bean bag by the pool instead. Hotel staff weren't concerned by the lack of space.

Rooms Very modern, spacious, clean and comfortable. We opted for a sea view bedroom which had amazing views. Food We had the breakfast buffet which was good. Overall, this... More

Myself and my mum stayed here in early September, booked under a 'adults' only holiday we arrived to find it was 'couples' which we did find a bit awkward to begin with, as did another mother/daughter couple we got chatting to. Bedroom - lovely beds really comfortable with GREAT pillows! - bathroom was open plan (bit awkward but manageable) and... More
