Richard, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Loved the location and views of the ocean. Easy walking to Carvoiero and beaches
Gordon, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

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.
Ananda, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely 2 bed, 2 bath accommodation, very nice breakfast, close to Alger de Seca and 7 hanging valleys trail
bryan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.
Helen C, 4-night trip

4/10 Poor

The washing machine was half filled with dirty water that smelled horrible. The entire room and hallway smelled. We got over this issue and the inability to wash our clothes midway through our trip but then the roaches started running around our room and we were done. The front desk did move use to a new unit at 1130pm for which we were thankful.
Angela, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.
CATALIN, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Walking distance to Seven Hanging Valleys hike. Beautiful pool area and apartment.

URSULA, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great spot within a 5 minute walk to O stop and beach. Staff was incredibly friendly and it seems like they have been updating the grounds. Villa was well kept just a little dated, but the decor was clean and aesthetically pleasing!
Ashley, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Fabulous place to stay. Great pool and staff really nice working at the restaurant. Two things however. Some off the reception staff are very cranky and the beds are very hard. But mostly it was fab
Brendan, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property suited us perfectly. It was in easy driving distance to some of the coastal highlights, the restaurant food was excellent and it was in a quiet neighbourhood away from the busy downtown core.
