Lovely quiet little hotel with a really good selection of food. Hotel staff were really friendly and super helpful, would definitely go again. The Strip, Old Town and Marina are all within a 10 minute Uber/Bolt journey, so it’s nice to spend the day in the busy touristy centre, then come back to a nice quiet area. The beach is also within a couple minutes walk from the hotel!!

Staff were really great and there to help all they could.
Really friendly but not pushy at all.
It was a lovely relaxing place.
Bathrooms could be redone but showers were really great with the pressure being the best shower we have had.
Care taken with cleaning and maid service good too.

Needs investment
Near beach in a quiet rural area.
Nice staff esp Bella on reception and Rico in bar.Beautifully decorated restaurant. Rooms clean but basic.
Bathrooms and tv's badly need to be refurbished and replaced.No lift or air con.Very little facilities in the immediate area.Ideal for mature people who want a quiet away from it all holiday.

A good clean but dated hotel with friendly staff who are prepared to meet your every need. The location is excellent being close to a number of beaches and good restaurants, although the hotel restaurant itself serves good food. Overall great value for money.

Solo weekend break
This hotel is a fantastic option for a solo getaway most if the guests were solo travellers, I have stayed at a lot if places alone and I have never found a place were u felt so comfortable, relaxed and safe as I did at this place. The rooms are basic and slightly dated but it is a budget accommodation and in my opinion you get more than you pay for . I would return for sure and recommend to my friends looking for a relaxing break.

Nice quiet hotel
Staff were all really friendly and helpful. Room small but adequate for 1 person. Not a lot of storage room. Hotel in a nice quiet location but to walk into Albufeira - about 3 km - took a while as very hilly.

Lo que más me ha gustado ha sido la playita que está a 5 minutos andando del hotel, es una maravilla y muy tranquila, el atardecer espectacular. En cuanto al hotel, un poco caro para el estado de las instalaciones, no cambiaron las toallas en los 4 días que estuvimos y solo nos pusieron una grande a pesar de ser dos personas. Camas cómodas y espaciosas y lugar tranquilo y agradable.

Arredamento un po' vecchio sia nelle camere che nella struttura. Buona la posizione, spiagge e ristoranti sono raggiungibili anche a piedi.
