Just returned from a week at the Baia. The hotel is ideally situated close to the town centre and beach. The rooms are spacious and cleaned daily, would recommend you taking you own towels as the ones provided by the hotel resembled sandpaper. Reception were helpful and very friendly. Bar was small and staffed only in the evenings with a... more

I have stayed in this hotel three times and not by choice, every year myself and a large group of track and field athletes go Monte Gordo for warm weather training as there is a fantastic training facility a short drive/longish walk from the town, our coaches pick the hotel! The food is horrible, especially when your an athlete like... more

The hotel is very basic with a small bar area which is really just a part of the reception. Breakfast not too good, scrambled egg ( which sometimes tasted of fish) and frankfurters or little bits of fatty bacon. Dinner not much better with very little choice and a very small dining room in the basement so no windows.The town... more

We stayed here in May, and we suffered with really bad weather so were forced to stay in the hotel more than we would have usually. It's times like this that you find fault in a three star that frankly needs some money spent on it. Bar was small and dark, barman incapable of even attempting to break a smile,... more

As long as you do not expect any sort of luxury you will be OK. We didn't pay a lot to go here so was expecting what we got. Basic rooms, basic bar & restaurant area and not the warmest welcome from staff. However, it was bearable and for a cheap get away couldn't complain. Monte Gordo itself was very... more

Paid £435 for 2 adults and a child on a half board basis. After paying that, what really can you expect? A pleasant surprise. THE RESORT Quiet. Clean. Lovely beach-goes for miles. A bit characterless, unfortunately but it was okay for a cheap week. A lot of Dutch and English guests stay here for the winter. Not for your young/lively... more

Staff were very friendly and were very helpful. Rooms were ok but no tea making facilites were available.The Tv offered gave no English speaking channels. The main problem was the food which was advertised in their information as an American style breakfast and was not !it was infact a standard continental breakfast ie cold meat/cheese etc. Evening meals were very... more

Went to this resort this october on a cheap getaway, i was pleasantly surprised. Hotel staff were friendly, room was spotless with clean towels everyday. Food was a bit bit basic but lots of it. (i must add i'm a fussy eater) Its a quiet resort which suited us as we just wanted to relax for a week. If you... more
