AP Adriana Beach Resort

My family and I arrived 2wnd October, and this is our 5th time here. We are staying in room Z203 and Z202 which are other end of main reception by The Grill Restaurant. Rooms are nice and clean with plenty of space. This is classed as a basic room which we have stayed in before and also stayed in superior which are more central but its literally a 5 minute walk from reception. Our friends arrived a couple of days later and stayed in AA block, not sure why some comments are complaining about it being so far away from the reception area. It's not. I thought I would take a walk to my friends room and I would say it takes the same time to get from reception to my room. It is 5 minutes and again the room was great, I would stay there. Great food choices and plenty of snacks to choose from. We are leaving this morning but again another fabulous week here. As its our 5th time we will probably try different places in the future but sure will will be back at some point as is a wonderful resort. My friends loved it and we all said how well the design of the hotel is with so many places to sit even if it's raining. Thank you Adriana.

This review is of 'My' personal views and experiences at the AP Adriana. We have just returned from a week All Inclusive holiday from the 3-10 April. After being up very early we finally arrived at the resort after a 90 min transfer by coach. As usual in Portugal, none of the rooms were ready to occupy. We left our cases in the baggage room, then decided to walk around then have a cool refreshing drink. Our impressions were that the resort on the surface, was quite clean. We were taken to our room by golf buggy, as all the blocks are well scattered about. Our room was on the ground floor, which was a bit odd, as you go up 2 flights of stairs, along a corridor, and then down one flight of stairs to your room. The room was spacious, and very clean, and the beds were very comfortable. The walk in shower was good, and the bathroom was clean and spacious. The hotel was busy with the early Easter visitors, and at times there were long queues at meal times, and at the bar. Tho' this only lasted a day or two. We found if you want a bit of peace and quiet, the place to be was at the Grill and pool area at the rear of Block T. The food, at best was warm, only the soup was hot. Eggs at breakfast were cold, even at 8am when the restaurant opened. We used the sunbeds and stayed on the well maintained gardens. The sunbeds were in a bad way, some broken, but 'All' were in need of a good clean, as some were very filthy. Drinks glasses and plates were often left by sunbeds for a couple of days. This could be down to seasonal staffing issues. The Grill restaurant was also very quiet, tho' not as much of a selection as the main restaurant, which could be very noisy at times. The bar often got busy, but only Brits queue, others don't much to our annoyance. The new faces behind the bar only served those right in front of them, irrespective of where they were behind the bar, or who just joined the queue, often serving the last person first. They also took an age to do 3-4 cocktails or coffee. They had their one pace and that was that. Access to the beach was good, tho' if you have motability issues, then I would use the shuttle service, because there are 94 steps to the beach, which is worthy of a visit. One day we had a steady stroll to Vilamoura which took about an hour, but definately worth a visit, but take a hat and water because it gets very hot by mid afternoon. As the hotel is a bit isolated, I'm afraid you're a bit, 'Confined to Camp.' There is an on-site shop, but it's expensive and pretty limited. There is evening entertainment, quite low key, but enjoyable all the same, There are a good selection of AI drinks which was sufficient. So paying 20E pp per day for the Premium Package would, in my mind, be a waste of money. There are a lot of things if you look, could be better, but on the whole it's a lovely resort, which I would recommend.

Amazing, enjoyed every minute! Entertainment fantastic with wonderful linguistic entertainers, the entertainment manager is a credit to the hotel very professional and fun and friendly. Food was fantastic with different options everyday. The staff in the buffet work tirelessly to clean the tables they were brilliant. Bar staff very friendly. Rooms are clean and warm with a high pressure warm shower. Recommend booking the closer rooms. The grounds were beautiful, the grounds maintenance workers are fantastic. Can’t wait to come back, thanks AP Adriana!

Great holiday, kids club and entertainment was 10 out of 10! Location is brilliant right next to beach and walking distance to Villamoura. Nice and clean hotel! Food at the hotel was alright not everything available (not peak time). Plenty for kids.

We booked this about 4 weeks ago as a last minute and our first family holiday abroad with our 4 year old daughter, so tried to ensure it had facilities suitable for her. The staff were friendly and helpful. The variety of drinks and food was excellent. Entertainment was varied. The access to the beach was good so we visited multiple times. We were lucky to experience the new splash pool area that opened Easter time. However, the weather was a little cool in April which in effect meant the outdoor pools were extremely cold as they are unheated. We were disappointed as we booked this hotel as it was advertised as also having an indoor pool, so we hoped to use this as a back up for the colder outdoor pools. But when we asked at Reception, was told it has been Out Of Service for years!!! It meant we had little use of the pool, as did many other adults attempted but got out in less than 5 minutes; not to return. The kids that did brave it wore wetsuits, had limited time or came out with blue lips and shivers. Next time we will ensure further checks on All Facilities being available, prior to booking.

A good resort with loads of facilities although some (the spa) a little tired. The sofa bed in the family room was actually closer to being two singles of a decent size which was great. Please could you review the music playlist by the pool - lots of explicit lyrics that weren't family friendly. A great stay and we would definitely go back.

mustafa❤️❤️❤️ mr. morocco (they shouldn’t have so much alcohol as prizes, such as bingo, music quiz and the games thru the day. it should be so the kids also can win something) (also clean the floor in the room, there was a lot of sand) (i really like the snack-bar and the food🐺🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻) really liked the entertainment people, there we’re funny and cool 😎☝️

Lovely place to stay close to Albuferia and Vilamoura. Not too far from the airport. Access to the beach and lovely staff. We made friends at the resort and must say the main character was Muss on the entertainment team. So welcoming and warm!
