Looks very nice from outside but the property is old and not the best maintained. Staff are nice and responsive. The interior of the accommodation was very ordinary even the towels were old and worn. Near to the city center and somewhat walkable 20/25min to the beach.

I liked using this hotel as my base for many activities. I could walk to the beginning of the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail in about ten minutes by heading east. The views are spectacular. I could walk ten minutes west to get to an excellent place for breakfast or lunch "Earth Shop and Cafe." We had a car so we could also do outings, for example, Praia Nova (for the beach and the lovely chapel on the cliffs), and Silves for the castle and the storks by the river as you enter the town.

Nice lodging units. We got upgraded to a 2 bedroom unit. The exteriors looks amazing. The interiors are awesome. The kitchen had everything you need, including a dishwasher and a washing machine. The pool looked amazing. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Many people were in resort for long stay and repeated customers. They had their own restaurant but were not far away from downtown full of restaurants and shopping.

The property location was nice with a beautiful, but rugged walking trail that eventually meets the boardwalk. The room/apartment was average in all respects.

Very small bathroom & shower

Check in was very quick. We asked fro a ground floor unit and they changed it for us. Once in the unit, it was fine but there were no blinds on front kitchen window and the bathroom was extremely small. The stove was hard to operate and we never figured out the wash machine. The entire property was clean but dated and the hotel next door was under a complete reno. Staff at the property were very courteous but very limited English.

On site restaurant and pool side bar had excellent food for dinner. Service and staff were outstanding!!!!! Location is tucked away and quiet despite “family friendly” so we enjoyed quiet sunrises and sunsets on the patio overlooking the sea. Apartment was roomy enough (2 bedrooms) and a family could have had a person stay on the couch in the loft as well. Rooftop terrace was private and had a great view. Our Al fresco meal out there with local cheese and meats we bought at market was one of our favorite evenings.

Very average accommodation

Basic hotel accommodation but well located. Our room required some maintenance during our 4 day stay. Took two requests to have these items corrected. Beds were hard. Wifi worked well. This was our second time staying at this facility but we won’t stay again. Not well managed in my opinion.
