At best its a 4star property. During our stay hotel wasnt at its best, so ill put 3.5 stars. Hotel entrance looks like a train station waiting room. For a moment we thought that we are underground as its dark everywhere inside the hotel. Toilets were smelly on the entrance ground, Windows were cleaned on Christmas last year i think. Dirty floors. Rooms are dingy, but spacious.. Lots of cupboard space. you cant use the mirrors in bath area as its too dark. Water in Toilet bowl keeps on going unless you fiddle with the push buttons. TV Remote was filthy. Towels are from the 10th century, use with care! Toiletries are basic brands, nothing oo la la! Breakfast is good, not excellent. Theres a live station for omelettes and pancakes. Coffee from nescafe machines with pods, again not very 5 star standard. Stay here if you have a good price deal but not high expectations. DO NOT EXPECT 5 STAR SERVICE! You have been warned.

As a 5-star hotel, the experience is average and unacceptable. First of all, the accommodation time is three days and two nights. Two girls stayed in the sea view room, and they were very dissatisfied with several points. 1. The light in the bathroom of the room suddenly broke. After contacting the engineering staff for repairs, it broke again during the shower. 2. After eating breakfast at the hotel on Day 2, I suspected that the food was unclean. I sat in the hotel lobby and vomited. The hotel staff were arrogant and unfriendly when the hotel provided vomit in plastic bags. 3. When I filled in the information at the time of check-in, I found that there was an error in one column (the lady filled in the mistake as Mr.), and I have notified the front desk staff to modify it, but the TV in the room is still Mr. and the call to the front desk is still Mr. After repeated reminders, The 5 star hotel staff is still not amended. 4. The rooms are not fully sea view rooms, and nearly 80% of them are hotel garden views. This room should be listed as partial sea view when booking, which is very disappointing. 5. In terms of sanitation, the hotel provides rental towel cards for outdoor swimming pools, so that guests can exchange them with staff when needed. But when we changed the towels, we found that there were many mosquitoes floating in the outdoor swimming pool and gave up swimming. Although the two towels were not used for swimming, they were already wrinkled and we put them on the beach chairs. Unfortunately, when we returned the towels, the staff found Not wet, put it with clean towels, very disappointed with the behavior of a five-star hotel. 6. On Day 2, we went to the nearby cliff cave to participate in the water tour. Before departure, we asked the front desk if we needed to make an appointment in advance, and expressed the hope that the staff would make an appointment for us in Portuguese, but the staff said that we only need to walk in after arriving at the scene, and refused to make an appointment for us. We call. It's a pity that after arriving by Uber for nearly 40 minutes, I found that all the tour boats on the site canceled all activities due to weather problems. I think that as a five-star hotel, we should check the local situation for hotel guests in advance.

First time staying in this hotel and we had a great stay! Very good value for money. Brilliant selection at breakfast. I requested gluten free bread most mornings and the staff were so helpful. Our room was spacious, warm and cleaned throughly every day. Spa, gym and indoor pool was clean and well equipped. I had an anti stress massage which was amazing. Thank you / obrigada!

Absolutely amazing experience all the way from check in through to check out. We had an early flight and they let us check in early from 11am and even decorated our room. The hotel restaurants and bar had friendly and helpful staff that were always around to help and the food was AMAZING. The walk to the beach was peaceful and beautiful as well. The overall stay was one of the best I’ve ever had and I definitely recommend this hotel to everyone.

Generally the hotel fell short of what is expected for a 5 star hotel. It was not well maintained and beds had bed bugs. The room layout although large was open to the bathroom meaning smells were circulating the entire room. Toiletries had to be replaced after asking for them instead of proactively doing it. Not great, avoid.
