Lovely, quiet, cosy little hotel. It has a larger, sister hotel with more amenities close by. Evening meals were really nice, served under the veranda by the pool and, because there are only 23 rooms, it was like eating in a small restaurant . It's certainly made my wife and I look more closely at "small and friendly" hotels. The... more

Specifically chose this hotel based on previous reviews as wanted a relaxed peaceful break and were not disappointed. The hotel is excellent, small, well maintained with good rooms and good communal spaces and a great pool. The staff are all welcoming and helpful. Takes maximum of 10 mins to walk into the old town for the nightlife and restaurants of... more

We enjoyed a very quiet stay in this quirky little place, very clean and quiet, with very nice rooms and reception areas, but with a rather steep hill to the main town. Our teenage children found the hotel too small and quiet for their tastes, but loved Albufeira more

If you want a hotel thats action packed then this is not for you ! if you want relaxation and helpful friendly staff ( thank you Paulo ) and in a position that is 15mins stroll into the old town downhill and a sobering 20mins back then yes it is ! it was our first experiance in Portugal and we... more

This was a wonderful hotel, with friendly and helpful staff. Good food and everything you need for a lovely holiday. We stayed for a week in June the weather was great and the local beach (only a short walk away) was not crowded but you could just stay by the pool The room we stayed in was beautiful - complete... more

We stayed here in May and can endorse everything said by previous reviewers. A warm welcome, helpful staff, varied menus (you will need to like carrots), quiet, pleasant location and small and intimate enough to get to know other guests. Good for couples. 15 minute walk to the centre and main town beach. Handy bus service. A great find; we... more

Have just returned from a wonderful week at Cerro da Marina. It is an absolute gem of a hotel. If you want lots to do, entertainment etc then it isn't for you. If however, you want to relax in peaceful surroundings then it is perfect. The hotel itself is pretty, it's well cared for, spotlessly clean and the rooms are... more

I had read the reviews on trip advisor,so I had high expectaions, and was not dissapointed.Lovely quiet, clean relaxing hotel. breakfast is basic but fresh and tasty. Every thing said about the walk up he hill is true. don't do it in the heat of the day, the evening was fine. The only small complaint about the hotel was a... more

We looked at trip advisor before we booked this hotel , the reviews were excellent and after visiting i understand why. Excellent location in a quiet residential area with several two million pound villas next door.There is soothing music being played and the whole place is so relaxing . It took about 20 stroll from the hotel to the old... more
