Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a superb location with beautiful views, especially for golf enthusiasts. The rooms could use some improvement in cleanliness and comfort, especially considering the price. The breakfast is quite nice with made-to-order options, and the pool area is enjoyable, but the towels could be larger. Overall, it’s a friendly atmosphere with good service, though not everything was ideal.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, being just a short drive from Alvor with its vibrant restaurants and bars. The rooms were clean and spacious, but the dining experience left something to be desired due to the limited breakfast choices. While the service was hit or miss, with some friendly staff members and a few who weren’t very helpful, the facilities like the pool were enjoyable. Overall, a decent stay but there’s room for improvement in some areas.
The hotel is set in beautiful parkland and offers great views of the pool and golf course. I found the rooms to be small but clean and with all the essential amenities. The service was a mix, with some great helpfulness but also inefficiencies at times. The dining experience was quite pricey, especially since some restaurants were closed during my stay. Overall, it’s a decent choice if you’re looking for a relaxing getaway close to Alvor's vibrant dining scene.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, enjoying the well-kept rooms that offer a nice traditional vibe and overlook beautiful pool and garden views. The location is great, just a short drive to Alvor town with its fantastic restaurants. However, I found the service a bit inconsistent, with some staff being quite helpful while others were less enthusiastic. The dining experience was mostly good, but a few small service mishaps left me wishing for better attention to detail.
I had a great stay at this hotel as it offers a beautiful view of the golf course and pool, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The rooms, while not the largest, were very comfortable and nicely furnished. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff who were always willing to help. However, the dining experience fell a bit short in terms of variety, especially during busy times. Overall, I found the hotel to be a fantastic choice for a golfing holiday, but some improvements in dining options would make it even better.
The hotel is located in a beautiful area, surrounded by well-maintained parkland and close to the beach, which was definitely a highlight. The rooms were spacious and clean, offering a comfortable stay, but I did notice some noise from the road at night. The service was excellent and made me feel at home, while the dining options were nice, with a delicious omelette made fresh. Overall, it's a great value for money, but the noise could be an issue for light sleepers.
My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The location is stunning with beautiful gardens and a picturesque golf course. The rooms had a great atmosphere, but I felt the price we paid didn't completely match the quality. The service was friendly, especially Sofia, but was occasionally a bit slow. The pool and dining options were highlights, but the value for money could use some improvement due to the small towels and limited breakfast timing.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is perfectly located near beautiful golf courses and great walking routes. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable, but I did experience some noise since I was at the front of the hotel. The service was outstanding, with staff who were always friendly and ready to help. Dining was decent, but I wish there were more breakfast options. Overall, it was a great value for money.
Overall, the hotel offers a solid stay with great views of the pool and golf course. The breakfast was a highlight, especially the omelette station, but the service in the restaurant could use some improvement. The pool is nice and perfect for sunbathing, although the towel situation could be better. While the location is convenient for golf and nearby towns, it's not the most ideal in terms of nearby attractions.
The hotel offers comfortable accommodations with stunning views of the golf course, but the rooms are a bit small for my taste and I found the foldable bed for our child to be very old and uncomfortable. The service is a mixed bag; while some staff make you feel special during your stay, there were times when the service felt rude and unhelpful. Overall, it’s a decent spot for a golf retreat, but improvements in service and room comfort would elevate the experience significantly.
