Really gorgeous compound to stay on and relax. Lots of pool options and beach was beautiful. Easy to drive places and go to surrounding towns and wineries. Meals were not great though, only good spot was the pool restaurant by the gym. Rooms need to be updated especially the bathrooms. Also they should do some type of spraying for mosquitos as that was quite bad. Otherwise staff was wonderful and it felt like a luxury experience from the service and amenity side

We stayed here in June and had an absolutely amazing experience. The staff were incredibly helpful and always went above and beyond to make everything possible for us. The service was truly outstanding. Honestly, some of the best service I have ever experienced at a hotel. The restaurants were incredible as well. The food was absolutely delicious and easily among the best I have ever had. The hotel itself is beautifully equipped, with so many pools, a lovely beach area, and even a padel court, which we really enjoyed using. Everything was always extremely clean and our room was cleaned twice a day. The attention to detail throughout our stay was exceptional. Overall, this is definitely one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The combination of amazing food, beautiful facilities, cleanliness, and especially the incredible service made our stay unforgettable. I would absolutely love to come back.

This was the best hotel we have ever stayed at in Europe. The grounds were beautiful, the whole atmosphere was so relaxing and peaceful. We could always find a sun lounger and whilst the food was priced on the higher end for Portugal we didn’t eat a bad meal. We cannot wait to come back already!

What an extraordinary resort! From the moment we checked in, the staff was friendly and very helpful. We stayed on the 4th floor with an ocean view. The balcony is very private with not only an ocean view but also of the town closest by that outlines the beach shore. The grounds are spectacular! If you are looking for a romantic place to meander amongst secret gardens, secluded beach, lounge near several pools and couples cabanas with impeccable service, beautiful grounds that are manicured and feel like a tropical paradise, this is the place!

The breakfast, to the beach bar, attention to detail, decor, staff, cleanliness, area, rooms, views, grounds, the smells everywhere, I mean absolutely everything was just beyond beautiful. If you’re going to the Algarve of Portugal I 1000000% recommend. About 20 minute drive from Albufeira but it is just 10/10. I was blown away. 5* resort.

The hotel was good but it’s hard to get around because the distance at least from our room to the beach/pool etc is quite long. Also, there’s a few restaurants but hard to get a reservation. The first night we got in we attempted to make reservations and some of them were not even available during our stay, and the first available time to eat our first night in was at 9:30pm. The beach service is almost non existent. You can be sitting for hours and no one comes to ask you if you would like to order something. The rooms are also a bit dated. Over all I would say that it is a nice stay but we were not blown away with the facility for the price we paid.
