Lovely small hotel, great if you want a quieter location, the free shuttle bus from 'The Hilton' 1 min walk away was really helpful to use for either marina or beach. Rooms lovely, staff were really helpful on any questions, free- WiFi, a variety of breakfast options & ate one evening meal here too which was amazing. Pool on the smaller side but still usable. The only downside we were on the ground floor level which was quite noisy from reception/bar/sofa area, could do with a door leading to the rooms.

Reasonable price and good for the price. Close enough to town to enjoy it and far enough away to not be disturbed by it. Good breakfast for a hotel that size. The outdoor pool was a bit disappointing, but wasn't really there for that and the indoor pool advertised was actually at another hotel and you had to pay to use it by the hour... bit cheeky really!
Staff were excellent though and is where the venue shines.

We had a good stay here, the hotel is in an area with houses, away from the center but quite easy to get with an Uber.
They also have a shuttle but be mindful that it (and some other services they offer) are actually at the Hilton hotel (which I'm not sure if it's far or not, but worth mentioning)
The room was large and we'll maintained. The pool needs some refurbishment but it wasn't bad.
A big minus from my side is the lack of vegetables in the breakfast. Probably for a longer stay the breakfast options might get a bit boring.

We loved our stay. The room was spacious, peaceful and clean. The food was great - we had a half board and the breakfast buffet had an okay amount of options (would be good to have more fish and vegetarian options that aren’t cereal, pastries and fruit) and the dinner was a 3 course meal.
Very filling and it would be even better if you could cater to a halal diet as we could only have vegetarian or fish. Would have loved to try the chicken or duck that were options too if it was halal.
Didn’t use the pool, it’s quite small but good for kids. It’s a quiet location and neighbourhood for a proper relax.
We would love to come back again! Staff very friendly and well located right next to the biggest spa in Portugal 🇵🇹

*However*
Cons:
Check in took too long (35-40 mins, don't think it was the receptionist's issue, maybe ask for passports in advance)
Complained twice about the noise, we were told they look to move rooms but never heard back
The noise was incredible from 7am on. Unfortunately, our room was above the dining room and from 7am on all you can hear is chairs being pulled and dragged across a floor. Surely, there is some simple solution to this.
The tiles on the pool need a deep clean. Clothing and body got discoloured from the lack of cleaning. We suggested it, told they've something to put in the pool. It's not the pool, it's the tiles. Empty the pool and scrub the tiles. Basic solution.
This hotel is a good hotel but it could be a great hotel.
