Localização perfeita, pequeno-almoço excelente, quarto limpo e espaçoso, com todas as comodidades. Providencia estacionamento gratuito a poucos minutos de distância. Um hotel maravilhoso.
Lovely hotel and stunning location and very easy to get to local town and beaches etc. However, left down by sometimes poor and inconsistent service from staff that you wouldn’t expect in a 5* hotel. A lot of the staff had poor English and at times communicating with them was difficult and stressful.
Very clean and new hotel. The carpets in the hallways were brilliant - well thought out to make wheeled suitcases easy to pull; also stylish. Bed was super comfortable, AC very effective, room was kept immaculately clean by friendly cleaning staff. Friendly staff served breakfast and in the roof top bar which was amazing, with 360degree views. Dipping pool and sun loungers were well-used; hard to get a lounger in time!
Downside: some very odd management decisions. Despite description on Trip there was no cafe, no lunch or dinner and not even bar snacks! I rang on the 2nd day to ask for a bottle of water … response “Madam, this is a 3* hotel. You only get a bottle of water on your first day”!! Bizarre. I was able to buy a $0.99 bottle from the bar for €2.50!
Breakfast: the ubiquitous coffee machine producing the most disgusting coffee - I tried all of them! In the end I risked tea and even the hot water had scum on it. I know I was not alone … bacon - HP sauce standing proud like a statue - no sausages, cooked tomato, fried egg etc! Pancakes and waffles - no syrup! Nice fresh bread rolls and croissants. Sliced cheese and packaged ham. Selection of cereals, orange juice and good selection of fruit. After 5 breakfasts I got fed up.
WARNING - I was asked to give them my debit card to pay - she wrote down all the details! After I thought - why? I asked why - she said do they could charge me after I left if anything was missing or broken. I was assured this was legal in Portugal! I told them that was what “checkout” was for! I froze my card but I was really angry and when I have time to get a replacement I will need to cancel it!
Balcony nice but only looked onto other rooms! Looking down - WHY NO GARDEN???!!! Just rooftops.
I recommend a 4 hour boat trip …. Maybe 30m pleasant walk. Also hire bikes and go to the Nature Reserve - don’t miss Roman Salt Pits and beach crabs ….😊
Beautiful property right on Praia da Rocha. Excellent service at check-in, was given a quick tour of the lobby and room by a wonderful gentleman. Beautiful and tidy room, stunning view from balcony, though the small bathroom window opens into the corridor and at times there is an unpleasant odour from a pipe in the toilet. Breakfast was adequate and delicious, staff were helpful and nice. Overall a great place to stay!

ผผู้เข้าพักLocation of hotel excellent. Had a marina view which was superb. Strange location of, and small reception area so time consuming checking in and trying to get info from desk as always a queue and only one staff working. Two very small elevators are the main source of access to higher floors. The bar was very well served and cheap for a hotel. Breakfasts excellent due to choice available. However too many people drink coffee so if you want tea you will be waiting amongst the scrum of coffee slurpers for quite a while. They need more coffee machines spread around the breakfast area to eliminate this. The pool in the spa is excellent but water cold. Good sauna also located there. The rooftop pool can be windy and surrounded by smokers! Not too good for a non smoker. They possibly need to allocate an area for this act although people would have to leave their loungers which is hard I suppose.
Faro is an excellent location and easy to get around from this hotel
ผผู้เข้าพักBrilliantly located in Lagos, just set back from the port. Rooms are spotlessly clean and great amenities. Housekeeping crew tremendous and generally the staff are polite and on hand to help - 2 guys doing the concierge role were great. Breakfast was marvellous.
The only downside to my stay, was the spa facilities: both the steam room and sauna were out of order and the small poolside jacuzzi, was rather hit and miss.
That said, was great VFM and would certainly stay again.
JJenA Cozy Getaway with a Few Quirks
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Block C in a wonderful location near the beach. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our time there, as the bedroom was spacious and beautifully designed. However, there were a few quirks that left us slightly puzzled.
Locating the signage for the establishment proved to be a small challenge, but it added a sense of adventure to our experience.
Unfortunately, the air conditioning in our room left something to be desired. It struggled to keep the temperature comfortably cool, and we often found ourselves feeling a bit hot. It would be great if this aspect could be improved to ensure a more comfortable stay.
Nevertheless, spending evenings on the balcony was a delightfully cozy and relaxed experience. The ambiance was inviting and lent itself to unwinding after a day of exploration. The surrounding garden and environment added to the overall charm, and we truly appreciated the pleasant surroundings.
I highly recommend visiting this place for a minimum stay of 2 to 3 days. Anything less would make the trip feel rushed, as there is so much to explore and enjoy. Despite the minor quirks, our overall experience was enjoyable and memorable. I'm grateful for the opportunity to have stayed here and would gladly return for another visit.
MManuel JesusEs un magnífico hotel. Su ubicación junto a la playa es excelente. Las instalaciones son modernas. El personal es muy profesional y atento. Tienen un desayuno muy completo. Recomendable para viajes de playa y para relajarse frente al mar.
ผผู้เข้าพักWe had a little hard time finding the address however, when we arrived, it was just like what what we expected a retreat hidden from everything. people are eager to help, very friendly except they don’t know what a lemonade is bartender we ask for a lemonade they gave us a lemon soda However everything else was great love the people love the attitude. Food was excellent. Temperature was a little hot that’s expected from the end of June July. Thanks again for excellent service.
