Here’s the good and the not-so-good
An oasis of tranquility with stunning gardens and dedicated staff that truly enhance your stay, making it memorable! The breakfast buffet was a highlight, featuring fresh, local produce.
A lack of consistent communication regarding booked activities can lead to disappointments, with long waits for service at the restaurant also detracting from the experience.

Had an amazing time with friends! We enjoyed both heated pools and tried the gym. The chef's table under the fig trees was delightful, and we loved the hydro fitness classes. The boat rides to Fuseta Island were highlight moments too. It’s a perfect base for discovering local traditions and the beautiful Algarve. The staff were friendly, making our stay comfortable. We’ll definitely come back!
The only downside was the noisy frogs in the pond at night, making it a bit hard to fall asleep.

Peaceful Escape with Great Amenities
My stay was truly remarkable, with peaceful grounds surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens. The staff were incredibly helpful, making my experience memorable, and I particularly enjoyed the extensive breakfast buffet featuring unique offerings like honey from the honeycomb. One area for improvement would be the dining options as some meals lacked flavor and variety, which didn't match the otherwise high standard of the hotel.

I stayed here for a relaxing getaway and the experience exceeded my expectations in many ways. The friendly staff made check-in smooth and welcoming. My room had a lovely design, with ample lighting and a comfortable bed. I especially appreciated the evening cookie service and the thoughtful beach amenities. The gardens are stunning, ideal for leisurely walks. Breakfast was a highlight, with a great variety and high-quality options. I enjoyed the spa casita, which was a fantastic way to unwind. However, the restaurant service was inconsistent. there were long waits for drinks at dinner and some miscommunication at breakfast. Despite this, I had a great time exploring the local activities and relaxing by the pool. I would definitely consider returning for the beautiful surroundings and warm hospitality, but I hope they improve the dining service.

Beautifully landscaped gardens created a peaceful oasis perfect for leisurely strolls. The unique blend of Algarve-style architecture and serene surroundings made for a relaxing getaway, especially enjoyable was the adults-only pool that offered tranquility away from family hustle.
Showers were a problematic area. the temperature swung unpredictably from hot to cold, which dampened the bathing experience. The bathroom could use an upgrade — ventilation issues and paint quality felt below par for a hotel of this caliber. Additionally, some dining options fell short of expectations for the price, lacking the authenticity and depth of flavor found in local Portuguese dishes.
