Hotels in Vilamoura

Positiv:: The location: 5mins walk to beach, 5mins walk to bars and restaurants in the marina. The hotel staff: very friendly and efficient service.

Positiv:: Excellent surroundings and very peaceful.

Positiv:: We always go five star, but this was one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at it has everything from the facilities to the location and the staff are very attentive, the room was brilliant and always cleaned daily (they even leave you about three-four 1.5 litre bottles of water and pillow chocolates with a different little message everyday), the restaurants are great with three to choose from all catering for different things and well on a morning, the breakfast was brilliant with a huge variety, as well as freshly baked pancakes, pastries and eggs in a style of your choosing. If you are looking for a nice break to the algarve and you don’t want a very busy place, I would reccomend staying in Vilamoura and not Albufeira and staying at this hotel, you can travel to other areas in the algarve in around 20-25 mins, the people/locals are all very nice the beach is never crowded, so you can always have your space and the marina is on your doorstep as well, there are a companies here that offer various excursions (Benagil cave tour is a must) but one company AlgarveExcite were absolutely brill so look them up, they also do water sports, we used them for all the activities we did. The marina also has a lot of shops, great restaurants and bars, you will find at least one place that caters to your taste, and the best thing for me is that people don’t get rowdy after drinking on a night (there may be one or two, but nothing like Albufeira), people know their limits and are respectable. After mentioning all this, the hotel is at the centre of it all, with everything I’ve mentioned in mind, for everything you get it was great value for money. I will definitely be visiting again in the near future.

Positiv:: The location was excellent but been in much better hotels for the money,

Negativ:: Breakfast was ok but not 5 star and the sun beds were the worst l have ever been on in a 5 star.

Positiv:: Very clean property. Friendly and helpful employees. Great facilities.

Positiv:: Breakfast, efficiency of reception. Blue lagoon.

Negativ:: The beach beds are not comfortable

Positiv:: Fusion restaurant is excellent & staff were fantastic

Positiv:: The staff were lovely. From the moment we checked in, to the moment we left. We came to the lakes after getting married in portugal, and they made us feel so special, with lots of little extra touches in our room every day. Thank you.

Negativ:: We liked everything.

Positiv:: Absolutely amazing hotel, highly recommended!!!

Positiv:: Beautiful hotel .... nice and quiet but near enough To lively marina Loved the beach pool

Negativ:: Some of the staff could smile more

Positiv:: Das Personal war bewonders freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit.

Negativ:: Locking random. access to Hilton bars and restaurants after 7pm.

Positiv:: the suite had everything we needed and more. The room was cleaned every day. Excellent service with exceptionally helpful staff. Had the advantage of the Hilton facilities and free shuttle bus into the marine.

Negativ:: n/a

Positiv:: Never had breakfast The Resort is made up of two separate parts and has very little to help people with physical disabilities so getting to the restaurants was hard.

Negativ:: The Staff were friendly and helpful

Positiv:: very nice apartment

Negativ:: overcrowded pool

Positiv:: We were allowed a late check out on our last day which made it a much more relaxing day. The hotel/apartment facilities were excellent and the staff friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend a stay here

Negativ:: Noting major but the sofa in our room was a little “tired” and took away from the rest of the area

Positiv:: breakfast excellent, location good with the free shuttle bus.

Positiv:: Everything was great . Staff were so helpful

Negativ:: Price range could be a bit lower

Positiv:: Location is good Quietness is good Offering is good

Negativ:: location is perfect

Positiv:: Das Apartement war sehr gross uns gut ausgestattet

Negativ:: Alle anderen Einrichtung, insbesondere Swimming pool geschlossen, alles andere nur im Hotel

Positiv:: Ruhige Lage, grosser Fernseher im geräumigen Wohnzimmer, gute Ausstattung der Küche.

Negativ:: Die beiden Teppiche beim Bett müssten gegen neue getauscht werden!

Positiv:: great location

Negativ:: very huge hotel therefore with a lof of guests

Positiv:: Close proximity to marina and beach. Hotel is stylish

Negativ:: That at the public showers/ toilet doors are frosted glass.

Positiv:: The food was lovely. We preferred the half board meal in peppers rather than the meal we paid for in peppers (room 420)

Negativ:: The mould around the bath The evening meal we had in peppers restaurant that we paid for wasn’t very nice it was disappointing

Positiv:: Top Lage

Negativ:: Frühstücksbuffet sollte dürfte variantenreicher sein

Positiv:: Location is fantastic. Breakfast spread is good although a few elements like the fruit tasted (soaked in a juice perhaps) weird so my son wouldn’t eat them.

Negativ:: The pools aren’t suitable for children between the age of 3 and 6. They have one pool of 40cm deep which is fine for babies and toddlers. The other pool is almost instantly 1m, 30 so too deep for younger children. They can only stand on the steps entering the pool. Pool service a little slow but acceptable.

Positiv:: One of the best places I have ever stayed

Negativ:: Everything

Positiv:: The location, decor and service

Negativ:: Loved it all!

Positiv:: Great hotel

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: Super Essen, super Lage, schönes Zimmer, mega Aussicht auf den Hafen.

Negativ:: Nespresso KApseln sind mega teuer, die Rechnung musste geprüft und reklamiert warden, das Personal ist nicht am flottesten, dafür freundlich, die Liegen am Strand kosten extra und sind unpackbar teuer.

Positiv:: Bed and room comfortable. Breakfast good apart that the hot items on the buffet section were cold

Negativ:: Housekeeping was slow (15:00) in cleaning the room on the two mornings. When I connected my iPad to the tv is cable could not view it because the home page obscured the picture only way to make it work was to remove the network cable from tv and then three coloured symbols were showing on the screen.

Positiv:: Great hotel, lovely breakfast staff that were brilliant with our 1 year old. Amazing spa!

Positiv:: Very good

Negativ:: Everything

Positiv:: location was excellent... beach and for the harbour

Negativ:: bigger fridge

Positiv:: Great location, really friendly staff, excellent breakfast, lovely pool

Negativ:: The price of water at pool bar!

Positiv:: Free upgrade! Breakfast! Could be on for later in the morning though for late risers... staff very good and attentive . Pool was nice! Nice music

Negativ:: Vilamoura!

Positiv:: Sehr schönes Hotel

Negativ:: Massenansturm auf das Frühstück- schlecht origanisiert

Positiv:: Sea view

Negativ:: We didn't the room that we booked on line

Positiv:: The hotel and staff were fab , been there twice this year, stayed at tivoloi before , but will def return next year , sad to leave , we lost money bag in marina thankfully Jorge organised and rang a taxi no charge life saver , it was handed in love love this hotel x

Negativ:: Nothing all brilliant especially staff breakfast and atmosphere

Positiv:: Staff were lovely & very friendly

Negativ:: The lighting in the bathroom could be better, maybe replace bulbs with LED ones, they give a whiter light

Positiv:: We liked everything about the property. The areas to relax were nice and the staff were excellent.

Negativ:: Nothing. We will be back.

Positiv:: The staff were very accomodating, the hotel is spotless and the pool was fabulous

Negativ:: Drinks at pool bar are a bit expensive

Positiv:: Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit!

Positiv:: It's a great hotel. Staff are fantastic.

Positiv:: Breakfast fabulous. Pool area spacious. Rooms lovely and well maintained.

Negativ:: Only one chair on balcony. Tiles missing in the pool and dirty on steps into it.

Negativ:: Beim Check-in hat uns die Dame an der Rezeption schlecht über das Hotel informiert. Insbesondere hat die Dame unpräzise Infos betreffend Strand und Shuttleservice geliefert. Uns wurde nicht mitgeteilt, dass das Hotel über Strandliegen verfügt. Insofern haben wir keine Zeit am Strand verbracht. Erwarten Professionalität - sonst nichts.

Positiv:: Liked the setting overlooking golf course liked the buffet the transferred bus in villamoura was excellent staff excellent end and pillows water in room all excellent credit card stuck in hinge toilet door

Negativ:: So. Of the furniture a bit worn tears in the furniture in the balcony wooden structure needed repaired and painted

Positiv:: Design and comfort

Negativ:: Lunch menu was limited.

Positiv:: Understaffed and some undertrained people at the Restaurants and Pool team.

Negativ:: Not prepared to handle the peak access during August and keep an overall Quality of Service to a level of a 5* Hotel.

Positiv:: Das Spa war ein Traum, die Behandlung sehr gut und professionell. Das Restaurant Emo war hervorragend. Die Weinkarte erlesen.

Negativ:: Die gesamte personelle Ausstattung des Hotels ist unzureichend. Noch dazu sind die Angestellten weder gut angeleitet noch organisiert. Alles wird versucht über das Personal der Rezeption zu organisieren. Reservierungen, Taxibestellungen, Auskünfte über die Gegend, Fahrräder leihen alles muß in Eigenorganisation erfolgen. Das ist nicht der Status eines 5 Sterne Hotel. Der Zimmerservice inklusive der Sauberkeit läßt mehr als zu wünschen über. Statt zu putzen wird oberflächlich mit Chlor eingesprüht und darüber gewischt. Der Zimmerservice zum Frischmachen des Zimmers Abends kommt garnicht oder um 22.30 .

Positiv:: Clean!

Negativ:: Rooms facilities

Positiv:: Great breakfast, great facilities, did not feel too busy at any time. Staff were very helpful.

Positiv:: Wanting to come back...

Positiv:: The rooms The pool The friendly staff

Positiv:: Nothing special to like

Negativ:: location - approach hotel through a development which was half finished and an abandoned building site Hotel hosted a sales conference when we were there and one as we left and they wanted us gone Food and drink in the hotel expensive and food average

Positiv:: Pool area, staff and restaurant all great as usual.

Negativ:: Stayed here many times over the course of 5 years and this time didn’t feel the same, the hotel rooms needed a lot of TLC and for the money you pay staying here it should be kept on top of continuously I feel like.

Positiv:: Staff were all excellent, pool and room very nice. Good choice at breakfast

Negativ:: More going on in the evening would be nice, some music and an alternative bar etc would be good. Feel as though you have to go out for any form of life

Positiv:: Loved the apartment we had, spacious and modern. Great outdoor and indoor pools although some bits needed a bit of tlc in places.

Negativ:: Some of the staff around the complex were not very welcoming, even a smile or a hello felt like too much trouble for them. Limited choice at the Resturant which didn’t open till 10am for breakfast. Had a bad ant problem in our kitchen and lounge which didn’t bother me too much but had a young baby who was wanting to crawl around which he couldn’t do. Ordering taxis from reception was a problem as they kept ordering a executive minibus when all we wanted was a normal taxi, obviously had a link up with this firm which was expensive. Location was ok if all you wanted was to stay in complex but didn’t think there was enough on site to do this. Hotel opposite which could be used was very expensive.

Positiv:: Great for Families Apartment was good size

Positiv:: Lovely villas!

Negativ:: Housekeeping stuff not very thorough in cleaning the villas!

Negativ:: Be nice to have a supermarket close

Positiv:: Die Wohnung war riesig und mit allem ausgestattet. Ebenso war die Poolanlage perfekt.

Negativ:: Das Bad war nicht im Besten Zustand. Kein heisses Wasser in der Dusche, Trennwand und Ablage instabil.

Positiv:: Great staff, clean, underground secure parking, massive swimming pool, indoor pool and gym, close to Vilamoura and Golf courses.

Negativ:: Directions to find the Reception area, we arrived late due plane delay and arrived in the area after dark, no signs anywhere indicating we had found the right place. Sat Nav took us within 50ft and we still could not have told where it was. Need some signs

Positiv:: Staff pleasant

Negativ:: No shop Two days apartment wasn’t cleaned - balcony wasn’t brushed the entire week Not enough buses into and from town Poolside cafe expensive for small portions

Positiv:: Location. Do not stay here... go to the Anantara across the road..... Flawless

Negativ:: Poor upkeep, poorly trained cleaning staff (contract). Check-in was poor, room not ready. Bad attitude.

Positiv:: Everything.

Positiv:: Apartments spacious and clean also good location sister hotel facilities outstanding

Positiv:: Friendly bar staff. Reasonable priced drinks and food. Accommodation very good, spacious rooms and well furnished, equipment etc.

Negativ:: Bed was very hard asked for mattress topper twice and eventually got one day prior to going home. Had to ask for cleaners to come to room several times and cleaning was a bit hit and miss. Paid for a view extra few hundred pounds we were on bottom Floor and looked into a fence! Not exactly a view. This is our fourth visit and found the gardens a little shabby compared to last time. Reception staff a little abrupt when I complained about “view” was told it was the deluxe block.

Negativ:: Das ursprüngliche Appartment war bei Ankunft nicht gereinigt. Haben aber umgehend ein anderes Appartment bekommen.

Positiv:: Breakfast was very good , plenty of choice of food for your first meal of the day and the staff very efficient.

Positiv:: Excellent breakfast full of choice and taste. Super comfy bed. Fantastic bath .

Negativ:: Adding the third bed to the room spoiled the comfort The restaurant was worth the price for breakfast but overpriced for dinner Golf was expensive and didn’t provide all necessary equipment

Positiv:: Loved everything about the property!

Positiv:: Ali the service, team and facilities

Positiv:: The indoor and outdoor pool were amazing also the free shuttle bus to the beach. The location is great, very close to Vilamoura Marina. The breakfast is rich, I recommend the cafe latte. Nice balcony!

Negativ:: Small room for a couple + baby knowing that I paid a rate of 600 euros for 2 nights. No view from the room.

Positiv:: Comfy beds, lovely rooms, within 5 min taxi ride from the marina, lovely pool area.

Negativ:: Rarely enough staff serving at the poolside restaurant and bar although the ones who were working really tried their best, they were over worked and need more people to help them at peak times

Positiv:: The hotel & facilities were great. The location was brilliant with daily shuttle to the marina. However , I do feel the beds need an update .

Negativ:: The beds

Positiv:: Our 4th stay and it was good as usual Very clean and comfortable. Rooms and Bathrooms are faultless. Shuttle bus to the marina and back is great although it's only a 25 minute walk if you prefer. Great pool area Breakfast is good

Negativ:: Year after year we as well as other guests mention no drinking water in the rooms after the initial 1 bottle on arrival. This feedback is never addressed. 5 star hotels should be providing drinking water in rooms and by the pool (small bottle in mini bar €4)

Positiv:: Der Spa-Bereich

Negativ:: Die Zimmer. Abgewohnt und unpersönlich

Positiv:: All staff very friendly and efficient. Shuttle bus to marina very good. Drivers very helpful and friendly. Would be good to have lighter food options by pool ie omelettes

Negativ:: Better choice for lunch as above

Positiv:: Gute Lage, sehr gute Sauberkeit.

Negativ:: Es war uns zu touristisch, das Frühstück von der Qualität eher auf Masse getrimmt.

Positiv:: The room was clean and staff was friendly

Negativ:: They took 47 € for god 2 kg , spa is not included in the room rate, so they took 40 Euro pour spa and 10 euro for 2 caps plastic for the pool

Negativ:: Renovierungsbedürftig an einigen Stellen Personal trifft nicht immer den richtigen Ton gegenüber dem Gast

Positiv:: Die Bäume im Garten

Negativ:: Die aromatisierte Klimaanlage und die Ventilation neben unserem Balkon war sehr unangenehm

Positiv:: Extra comfy beds. Very friendly staff. Excellent breakfast, highly recommend you book. Free shuttle bus in to town and return.

Negativ:: Location just a little out of town. Without the shuttle bus it’s a good 20/25 minute walk albeit a parkland walk. Swimming pool very small but used the Hilton across the road .

Positiv:: Brilliant helpful staff. Clean and well cared for. Spacious rooms and comfortable beds.

Negativ:: Poor swimming pool. Also even though there was information on reception desk about shuttle service it did not stand out enough so we realised days after spending 8 euros each way on a taxi that the hotel provided this service! This may be down to us but I also feel that reception staff could have pointed us in the direction of the shuttle service especially as we were booking taxi through them!

Positiv:: Pleasant, clean room overlooking pool, with large bed. Fridge in room. Hot and cold buffet breakfast was ok. Free hotel shuttle bus to Marina, hourly during the day and every 30 mins from 7pm (or walkable in around 25 minutes). There's a supermarket within 10 mins walk.

Negativ:: Pool is quite small and pool area and hotel could maybe be brightened up with some flowers/ flowering plants. The pool deck looked a bit worn. Price was on the high side considering.

Negativ:: Too high marks to this ordinary hotel... I had a room with very bad view to the road and entrance to basement garage, but I booked a room with garden view. Staff can’t do anything.. poor breakfast

Positiv:: Great breakfast and no problem getting you anything that wasn't there...toiletries lovely all u need so no need to bring any with you...

Negativ:: Beautiful clean hotel with lovely friendly helpfull staff...only small issue I have is pool area is too sheltered with trees so not getting enough sun at times.. but we just went to beach for our tanning..

Positiv:: The staff was very helpful and nice. Hotel location is good, around 30-35 minutes walk from Vilamoura Marina. The bed was huge and the hotel was quite for a good night sleep. We loved the balcony.

Negativ:: The breakfast needs to change. They are serving something similar to an english breakfast for all duration we stayed there (5 nights) with no other options. The bathroom's sink was smelling really really bad like sewage.

Positiv:: Quiet, boutique hotel. Room was spacious , pool area always had free beds.

Negativ:: Lacked a little atmosphere. Maybe some background music around pool would help.

Positiv:: Clean, lovely big room and great location if you like a little stroll to the marina.

Negativ:: People putting towels on beds at 9am in the morning and not using the beds till the afternoon

Positiv:: Staff very nice.

Negativ:: Too far away from the real Portugal.

Negativ:: pool was a little on the small side

Positiv:: Schickes Hotel. Das Ambiente, der Empfang das Personal war freundlich! Das Hotelzimmer geräumig und sauber . Die Matratze und die Dusche waren sehr gut! Außenbereich Pool und extra Kinderbecken. Liegen mit Sonnenschutz.

Negativ:: Das Frühstück entspricht nicht dem Standard eines 4 Sterne Hotels. Qualität, Angebot und Auswahl der Speisen und Getränke ist mittelmäßig. Am schlimmsten empfanden wir die beiden Kapselautomaten, an denen man morgens Schlange stehen musste, um sich Kaffee zu holen ( nicht zuletzt wegen des Umweltschutzes). Kantinenflair. Das Personal war freundlich, allerdings erschienen uns einige überfordert und gestresst ( müssen sie ja auch um die Menschenschlange Parcours laufen) Pool ist etwas kleiner als gedacht. Parkmöglichkeiten gibt es vor dem Hotel, allerdings nur 24 Parkbuchten. Wenn diese besetzt sind, muss auf einem öffentlichen Parkplatz ( kostenlos 100m weiter) geparkt werden. Um das Hotel geht eine Einbahnstraße.

Positiv:: Strandnähe, freundliches Personal, Essen war ok, sauber. Schöner Urlaub !

Negativ:: Zu kurze Frühstückszeit/bzw. Schlange stehen

Positiv:: Nothing not to like. Being going there for years no other hotel could offer what we want. Staff are amazing we feel at home

Negativ:: Everything

Positiv:: The location, support from personnel, and cleaning

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: The welcome drink on arrival was a nice touch

Positiv:: Breakfast beautiful great choice.Pool area lovely and its pool bar and staff so nice .A lovely welcome when we arrived.The staff go over and beyond to make our stay so good

Negativ:: There wa nothing to dislike about this hotel.Location great and the staff amazing

Positiv:: Wouldn't normally book a large hotel like this but stayed here for a wedding. Booked suite with hot tub. Very spacious room. Great balcony with excellent view. Hot tub fabulous. Staff very helpful and friendly. Free parking. Great location near to marina

Negativ:: Breakfast hours were quite short (for a holiday venue?) and breakfast room was crowded. Drinks menu in the bar was very dated - no Aperol Spritz in 2019!! Quite traditional in design

Positiv:: The bed was really big and the room size was really nice too. Easy to use AC. Good location, close to both the marina and the beach.

Negativ:: The bed was not particularly comfortable. One of the windows had no net curtain so I could be seen by guests in the pool. The breakfast was average at best - the eggs looked disgusting and wet/slimy. The paintwork, etc. in the room was outdated, as was the general feel and decor of the room.

Positiv:: The sunbeds where great and plenty of them. The pool was very clean The staff at reception where very friendly. Location is great being so close to the marina and beach

Negativ:: To be honest the breakfast offering was poor compared to other hotels I have stayed in Portugal. The dining room was very cramped with no space between tables and around the food counters. The general patio around the pool could do with a good power wash. Lots of grubby stains on them from spilt drinks etc. I enjoyed the hotel but would not return

Positiv:: Good location and some great staff

Negativ:: Decor a bit tired and the bed was hard. Shower needed a clean.

Positiv:: Not a lot good about hotel but the staff were great

Negativ:: A bit old fashioned Breakfast area to crowded only 1 toaster always a queue

Positiv:: Good position. Very good breakfast. Nice room.

Positiv:: Alles klasse... sehr zu empfehlen ☀️

Positiv:: Service was great. Very friendly and helpful staff. Very cosy hugh bed. Good aircom. Nice view from balcony. Big balcony. Didnt really use balcony. Spent time down at the pool and visiting the marina. Great buffet. Bar food was nice. Not expensive. Beach is just a few minutes walk. Shop across the road and more restaurants. All very good. I like Vilamoura

Negativ:: Slight smell in bathroom. Aircon might not be working in bathroom

Positiv:: Loved the choice on offer.

Negativ:: A limited choice for Sin Gluten individuals

Negativ:: Receptionist

Positiv:: The BED AND PILLOWS. The quiet peaceful nights sleep. Great staff, always happy to help. The breakfast. Room facilities. Basically EVERYTHING!

Negativ:: Having to leave and go home ☺

Positiv:: Overall we had a great stay, however this was ruined as I had English money taken from my backpack in the room which was very unnerving . I reported this to reception twice, who told me ‘staff had worked there for many years’. I would hate to ever think it had been taken but it had been and the staff at reception did not contact me to update me on the matter, even after I reported it twice. The response I got was very unsatisfactory. A bed side draw (luckily with nothing In it) was also open when we returned back from a day out, the room had been cleaned but the draw was open. We really liked this hotel and our stay but it was tarnished with these events and certainly unnerved us & made us very wary about the security of our possessions.

Positiv:: Super Frühstück.Tenniscourts gratis!

Negativ:: Indoor Swimmingpool Pool nur benützbar mit Spa und nicht für Kinder.

Positiv:: The location was great .however the staff at reception were very unfriendly . I had requested a pool/sea view on an upper floor and two of the reception ladies insisted I had that till I got to my room and I was looking out on very grey flat rooftops with cigarette buts thrown on .. not what I want to see on my hols??? Have a better view at home for nothing ! After a lot of time wasted for us we eventually met an older lady at reception who helped a lot and found us a better room but not a nice start to our holiday at all

Negativ:: Poor value for money , 90 rotors pppn is a lot for this hotel

Positiv:: Poolside excellent Staff lovely Breakfast impressive Views amazing

Positiv:: Great location near the beach and Vilamoura marina.

Negativ:: Poor air conditioning system in the room. Extra fee for gym usage.

Positiv:: Staff great and so helpful our checkin was greatv

Negativ:: Rooms small & pool was a sun trap and not heated the spa wasn’t of the standard of a 4 star pool was cold inside and it’s extra charge of 10€ gym wasn’t a gym fee treadmills

Positiv:: The beds were comfy, always had a sunbed and the location was good.

Negativ:: The property is quite old. Needs to be improved.

Positiv:: The resort is great. Nice golfing facilities, beautiful pool area situated in good area in the Algarve. The villa that we stayed in was very nice, overlooking the garden. Nice comfortable bed. The bars are nice and the live music adds to a generally excellent vibe. It was relatively easy to book golf from the hotel. The bellboy that transported us to our room was very nice and did an excellent job of explaining the facilities and how to get around.

Negativ:: The service was not as expected. Generally quite slow to respond to requests. The breakfast was disappointing, there was a lot of variety but the quality was not as expected. The juice and the coffee was particularly disappointing.

Positiv:: I didn’t like anything about the entire stay!! This hotel is a million miles away from a 5 star hotel and all the guests I spoke to regarding this agreed.

Negativ:: Everything from the food to being miss sold a family room that only slept 2 people max to the fact that I was in a shack in the garden which is a 2 star accommodation at best. Then being charged €21 for a brandy that is €7 everywhere else on the complex and €4.50 for a can of bloody Pepsi. Absolute puss takers!! Disgusting attitude from the staff but mainly the managers who are the most condescending people in the world. I will be taking action to get a refund.

Positiv:: Facilities

Negativ:: Staff behavior does not fit with a 5 star resort.

Positiv:: I liked the pool, hotel surrounding gardens and the room I stayed in. The electric cart to and from the reception was excellent. The help with baggage was Super!!!! Except for 2 idiots... The staff were excellent!!!!

Negativ:: The breakfast buffet was disorganised and some staff walked around bad mouthing the hotel management. Getting coffee served at the table was the most complicated process I have ever seen, you either wait too long or do not get served. If you decide to serve yourself you are told off in front of other guests that you should not touch the coffee pot. One other thing which I did not like was after house cleaning of the room being left with spotted hand towels.

Positiv:: Hotel has good pool facilties with 2 outdoor and one indoor pool with sauna and jacuzzi. Breakfast buffet really good and varied choice. Right next to villa sol golf course with discounted green fees. Family friendly and suits the golfer.

Negativ:: No wi fi in our garden room and beds a bit hard.

Positiv:: Das Hotel ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber immer noch sehr sauber und im PLV unschlagbar. Parken prima.

Negativ:: Das Essen hat nachgelassen, beim Abendessen dauert der Service lange und man wird bzgl. des nur einen freien Drinks erstmal fehlinformiert dass alle Drinks inkl. sind, wohl um mehr, und dann zu bezahlend, zu konsumieren.

Positiv:: Not being able to accommodate guests.

Positiv:: Everything was good and nice Just all holiday I was complaining about air conditioning ( doesn’t work properly and very noisy) Excellent food

Negativ:: A/c

Positiv:: Schöne Golfanlage und Tennisplätze

Negativ:: Personal wirkte unorganisiert und überfordert. Poolservice war nicht wirklich freundlich. Viele Kinder die Krach machen!;)

Positiv:: Great facilities. Nice big swimming pool and nice setting. Eating on the terrace was very nice in the evening.

Negativ:: You need some means of transport if you want to visit the town or local area as it is a long way to walk from the hotel. We hired bicycles for a couple of days which made a big difference.

Positiv:: The pool, the gardens

Negativ:: Staff with no experience, didn’t care about guests, did not make an effort to help Doesn’t felt like an 5*

Positiv:: Lovely relaxing break away, peaceful and no stress

Positiv:: Staff , food & rooms .

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: Schönes grosses Zimmer, überdachter Parkplatz, Terrasse, voll eingerichtete Küchenzeile, gute Betten, schöner Pool - alles ok - wir waren nur 1 Nacht da.

Negativ:: Das Zimmer hatte Ameisen und Wlan kostet extra.

Positiv:: This hotel is fantastic. A little old fashioned, but the pool area is great and so peaceful. I will definitely return next year. Staff are friendly and pool bar is great.

Negativ:: Few ants in room but can be expected.

Positiv:: Lage, Garten, Pool

Negativ:: Alter der Zimmer

Positiv:: Just go there, don't hesitate.

Positiv:: The resort is well-maintained and pleasant. The staff — from reception to housekeeping— was accommodating and gracious. Overall, a very good value and experience.

Negativ:: There were a few ants in the bathroom

Positiv:: Great pool, nice room and friendly staff.. I did not eat there but the food looked really good. Also, great selection of books...

Negativ:: The wifi is a bust... You have to pay and it rarely worked. Get your own system and do not out source it....

Positiv:: The apartment was basic but roomy. The pool area was nice. Breakfast was excellent value for money. Drinks at the bar were also very reasonable.

Positiv:: Clean and convenient. No frills. Perfect for a 1 night yay while we waited for our villa to become ready. There aren’t many hotels that will allow 4 per room so this was perfect.

Negativ:: The pillows were awful

Positiv:: My husband and I stayed in a studio apt, it was very spacious and was cleaned every day, I would highly recommend, due to the friendly staff and the quiet location. There was a free bus to and from the beautiful beach and Marina 4 times daily which only took 5 mins, we were very pleased, would stay here again :-)

Positiv:: Es Ist ein Kleines Resort und Der Swimmingpool Ist nie voll. Das Personal Ist freundlich und hilfreich. Mehr Mitarbeiter würden sehr geschätzt.

Negativ:: Unsere Wohnung (Nr. 4) Befindet sich in der Nähe einer lokalen Disko und Die Musik kann sich nachts stören. Die Wohnung ist wartungsbedürftig, wir mussten bei unserer Ankunft sagen, was repariert werden musste.

Positiv:: An amazing retreat,focussed mainly on health and well-being. Exactly what I needed! I slept for over 12 hours each night, tried the fitness classes on offer and ate the healthy food. A brilliant trip if you want to return home fitter and healthier than when you left!

Negativ:: I would love the check in time to be earlier to make use of the time there better as I was only on a 3 day trip. It needs heavier weights and mirrors in the gym.

Negativ:: The hotel and the staff was really nice however, we have booked this wellness/spa relaxing hotel to enjoy our stay in a calm place, but you should know that a disco is just around the corner, and it is really-really loud, some days we could not sleep till 6 am in the morning. That a little bit distroyed our stay and relaxation. The restaurant is very small, sometimes you need to wait for a free table, but the staff is really nice and helpful.

Positiv:: Super Lage, toller Pool,

Negativ:: Etwas in die Jahre gekommen, renovierungsbedürftig

Positiv:: Quiet, relaxed, spacious rooms.

Negativ:: Remote, expensive to get into Vilamoura.

Positiv:: The pool and spa area are lovely. M

Negativ:: The room was quite basic could do with modernising.

Positiv:: Personal war sehr freundlich und steht’s bemüht.

Negativ:: Mehr Auswahl am Frühstücks-Buffet.

Positiv:: Der Gesamteindruck des Clubs war sehr geschmackvoll, stilvoll, das Personal stets freundlich bemüht. Hochwertige Sportgeräte konnten jederzeit genutzt werden, der Pool war groß, sauber und sehr gepflegt. Im SPA- Bereich mit Sauna, Erlebnisdusche und Salzraum ließ es sich gut entspannen - wenn mann/frau allein bzw. zu zweit da war....denn dann waren alle Ruheplätze besetzt. Das Frühstück fiel etwas sehr spartanisch aus -lecker, aber wenig Auswahl, obwohl sich das sehr freundliche Personal bemühte, einige Wünsche zu erfüllen.

Negativ:: Das Restaurant in der Anlage erinnerte eher an ein kleines Glasbistro. Ursprünglich wollten wir dem Trubel der Küste etwas entfliehen und sind auch bewusst in keine große Hotelanlage gegangen... die Disco in der Nachbarschaft, die bis morgens um 5.00 feierlustigen Gästen aus der Umgebung - aber auch aus der Ferienanlage - Unterhaltung bot, sorgte doch für erhebliche Unruhe in der Nacht/in den Morgenstunden. In der Vor- und Nachsaison bestimmt ein sehr schöner ruhiger Ort.

Positiv:: Swimming pool

Negativ:: Old fashioned hotel/furniture

Positiv:: Welcomed my mum on her honeymoon and add extra details such as petals etc .

Negativ:: Mum explained the hotel was 4 star with 2 star furniture maybe in the future it can refurbish with up to date furniture .. she explained the furniture and look of the hotel was very old school !

Positiv:: An amazing stay! Every thing was perfect from the staff through to the food. Can not fault a thing!

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: The gardens were lovely and we received excellent treatments in the spa

Negativ:: The room was a good size but it looked a bit tired and possibly needed a revamp

Positiv:: This is a place to come for a wellness break, detox etc. You can come and not do a detox, I did B&B and was great. but bear in mind you won’t find people by the pool with a beer. Quiet and a short distance from town. A natural & green area. A drive or bus to the beach. You are left to your own devices; the staff do not hassle you and there is no pressure to have any treatments or take part in the classes or programme. A breath of fresh air as most places always try to push the spa on you. I only spoke to the waitress at breakfast most days, it was great for the mind. Staff were great & very friendly. Non fussing. Lovely organised walks with staff & guests. Meaning you get to explore, off the beaten track. Great schedule of classes and activities to join in if you wish. The accommodation (your own apartments) are huge. All have balconies or gardens with seating. The complex is small, only about 20/30 rooms so never crowded. No music by the pool, most places would feel too quiet or lack atmosphere by this, but was perfect for here. Very clean grounds. Would come again to get away from it all and spend time alone.

Negativ:: Poor pillows. Some new, better supporting pillows would be great. I think they would make more money if they had a nice seating area or bar (even if only selling healthy drinks), where people could go and talk or watch the sunset.

Positiv:: quiet place, near VilaMoura,

Negativ:: Very old furniture, bad mattress, 16h check in is very annoying

Positiv:: The swimming pool was lovely and a good size, with friendly bar staff and very convenient from the room we were allocated. the room was clean and the air conditioning a bonus.

Negativ:: The room needed a coat of paint, and they seemed suprised that we wanted to eat a meal there! I had expected to be able to play golf within walking distance of the hotel - you need a car to stay here really . A lot of facilities are advertised but are not on site. I had thought we might use a bus but there were no timetables for the bus which was a bit inconvenient.

Positiv:: Pool Bar and swimming pool

Negativ:: Rooms are very shabby,badly overdue a refurbishment

Positiv:: The location is great even though its far from shops and beaches.Room is nice,very english style.Swimming pool is situated beautifully,the whole territory is clean and green.

Negativ:: The staff is very unfriendly,poor english.Cleaning was careless.No additional soap and shampoo is strange for 4 star.Luck of facilities-no possibility to get proper food.Tennis court without lights while the dark time is best to play,when its not so hot.

Positiv:: A very nice hotel for a low price. Great to spend holidays with children.

Negativ:: The cleaning could be better and the room should be redecorated. Didn't understand why it is necessary to go to the reception to ask a hair-dryer. The check-in only at 16.00. Had to wait 2 hours for it.

Positiv:: Sehr angenehm; etwas abseits vom Strand, dafür Landleben mit krähenden Hähnen.

Negativ:: Schwer zu finden.

Positiv:: Swimming pool is very convenient. Space of the rooms was excellent.

Negativ:: The cleanliness was poor and the cleaning service also poor. Some details of "cheapness" as for example the fact that there was no soap in the toilet. The little convenience store was more than poor with no selection of products whatsoever. Decoration could be improved. There is a disco very close to the hotel and the noise level was such that we had to close the windows to sleep.

Positiv:: nice rooms and lovely pool.

Negativ::

Positiv:: The staff were particularly friendly

Negativ:: a little far out

Negativ:: Die Lage wie beschrieben, stimmt nicht ueberein mit dem ihrer Website, anstatt 2 waren es 5 km entfernung nach vilamoura. sämtliche beschreibungen und angebote wie bar am pool, diese hatte während unseres aufenthalts gar nicht geöffnet, alle anderen aktivitäten, waren nicht im Club vorhanden, sondern meistens 10 km entfernt. auch war das schlafzmmer die wand mit rissen übersät duch feuchtigkeit , das war zimmer nr 16.

Positiv:: Spacious apt. Quite area. Good views. Easy access. Suggested access - If coming from Faro direction, don't access through main road into Villamoura but rather access through next road marked 'Albufeira'. When you come to a BP petrol station turn into road marked 'Quarteira' and the hotel is just 100 metres away.

Positiv:: Location

Negativ::

Positiv:: Everything about the hotel and staff was just perfect ,we will be back .

Positiv:: The location and the entertainment , the breakfast.

Negativ:: We had a few loose floor boards in our room there was no kettle or an iron available ...also the Sauna and Turkish bath and the indoor pool were out of service the main reason I booked this hotel was for the above three facilities which I could not use. They should let us know before hand.

Positiv:: Location

Negativ:: Reception was very slow

Positiv:: Very comfortable bed and large upgraded room.

Negativ:: We paid quite a lot for our 3 night stay. Very surprised to pay extra for use of safe in the room but no extra to borrow a kettle. Breakfast was nothing special and was canteen style. Lifts very small.

Positiv:: I loved the room , breakfast and the most helpful receptionist Louis at the front desk this morning who was most helpful when our booked taxi didn’t arrive .

Negativ:: Disco music too loud last night as we were having an early start , also ( no fault of hotel) the loud conflicting 2 lots of music yesterday beyond the pool area .

Positiv:: I was disappointed that the indoor pool was out of action as was the sauna!! This was not mentioned on website prior to me making booking!! I have had a chat with the manager and she has agreed a discount if we stay with you again!

Positiv:: Everything

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: Convenient for Marina, restaurants, bars and beach! Also plenty of excellent golf courses at hand using Dom Pedro free shuttle!

Negativ:: Queues at reception can be problematic!

Negativ:: Musix a cross the road. All evening and late into the night. Terrible

Positiv:: Great location.

Negativ:: Breakfast was very busy and hot food could have been a bit better.

Positiv:: Gut aber zu teuer Zimmer

Positiv:: Das Frühstück war ganz gut!

Negativ:: Das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen! Matratze hart und keine richtige Decke.

Positiv:: Frühstück. Lage zur Marina Freundliches Personal.

Positiv:: Front of house Daniela Was very helpful Also bar staff very welcoming

Negativ:: Would prefer stand alone shiwe

Positiv:: Breakfast was 5 star great choice need to be down early for que

Negativ:: Thought room could have more attention to cleaning

Positiv:: Location was fantastic and great value for money

Positiv:: Sehr gute Lage in der Nähe der Marina Zimmer hatte einen geräumigen Balkon und Blick aufs Meer und Pool Die Auswahl beim Frühstück war sehr gut (Ausnahme: der Automatenkaffee passte nicht zur sonstigen Qualität)

Negativ:: Die Anlage ist sehr groß - für meinen Geschmack zu groß und wie der Ort auf englische Touristen ausgerichtet (viel Animation, englisches Frühstück und englische Fernsehsendungen im Foyer) Das Bad war anders als das Zimmer abgewöhnt und nicht ganz sauber

Positiv:: The location was perfect and the swimming pool brilliant for my 3 year old daughter.

Negativ:: Slightly outdated but was clean and comfortable bed.

Positiv:: The size of the room is perfect, more than enough room even with an extra bed in. The staff were friendly and very helpful.

Negativ:: The queue for the eggs/omletes at breakfast, surely eggs could be batch cooked to avoid this

Positiv:: Good breakfast and clean rooms. Staff are lovely.

Negativ:: Noise around the pool from roadworks. Also drilling heard very early in the morning in our room.

Positiv:: Location location location

Positiv:: Location and pool area

Negativ:: Breakfast. Pool was pretty cold

Positiv:: nichts

Negativ:: sauberkeit, Gäste....

Positiv:: Fantastic location and good facilities in the hotel.

Negativ:: Breakfast was very good

Positiv:: Die lage des Hotels ein super Ausblick zum Meer. Wir waren im 8.Stock. Die Räume riesig aber die Einrichtung sehr verwohnt.Mit einer kurzen Wanderung bist du im ort des Geschehens.

Negativ:: Es ist ein riessiger Klotz. Die Einrichtung stammt wohl aus den siebziger Jahren. Ein von Engländer bewohntes Haus-morgens gabs schon Bier.

Positiv:: Breakfast was good, location was great very central

Negativ:: The hotel was in need of updating wouldn't say it was 4 star

Positiv:: Very impressed with Anil and Lara behind the bar. Anil makes the best Mojito in Vilamoura and always greets you with his dazzling smile and charming personality! Would definitely recommend this place to others.

Positiv:: Lage nahe an der Marina Vilamoura. Frühstück war ok, aber nach 12 Tagen hat man es definitiv gesehen. war aber gut.

Negativ:: Hatten Meersicht gebucht; waren aber im 3.Stock untergebracht und da war das Casino teilweise im Weg. Von oberen Stockwerken sicherlich bessere Aussicht aufs Meer. Parking auf einem öffentlichen Parkplatz nötig (es hat Platz solange es hat; den hat es glücklicherweise im Februar noch); obwohl offensichtlich eine Tiefgarage vorhanden war??

Positiv:: Large suites good location

Negativ:: Rooms need updating really old fashioned and dated furniture and appliances. Overpriced considering this

Negativ:: Hotel komplett abgewohnt, Renovierung dringend nötig

Positiv:: The location was good.

Negativ:: The breakfast was regular, the room its huge but everything was un useful and the bed was really uncomfortable. The Hotel was from the 60-70 and it looks that they didn’t renovate anything since then.

Positiv:: Staff are fabulous. Very friendly. Excellent location. A bit dated but it’s price reflects this as doesn’t cost a fortune so all in all very happy.

Negativ:: Needs a bit of a revamp as it’s a bit tired and dated.

Positiv:: staff were excellent to deal with. nice location and great value for money, very professional set up. was a pleasure to stay here, would recommend

Negativ:: everything was good.

Positiv:: The beach is in front of the hotel...

Negativ:: It was very dificult parking a car...

Positiv:: Rooms dates but spacious ...staff very helpful, rooms very clean ..pool.lovely and clean too. Great location .

Negativ:: Rooms old fashioned...1970/1980 style ...

Positiv:: Sonst alles prima

Negativ:: Die Betten sind furchtbar

Positiv:: Big rooms. Great location. Good facilities in the property.

Negativ:: Bathrooms are in need of major upgrade. Old shower. No pressure. Old fittings

Positiv:: Good location and very clean and comfortable

Positiv:: The location and marina view

Negativ:: I had booked for 3 people and when we arrived they said it was for 2 people. It spoiled 2 days of our holiday but nobody seemed to care.

Positiv:: The property is centrally located to everything on the marina

Negativ:: The 2 bedroom apartment was clean and spacious

Positiv:: Location

Negativ:: Dark grim corridors, poor pool area and facilities and noisy at night

Positiv:: Breakfast was adequate. Hot food not great.

Negativ:: Hot food wasnt that hot.

Positiv:: Amazing view on 7th over Marina

Positiv:: A great size and good balcony

Negativ:: Only 2 single beds for 3 guys staying, sofa bed not comfortable

Positiv:: I liked the politeness and friendliness of the staff, especially the cleaning ladies

Negativ:: I have no complaints

Negativ:: Das das die Mitarbeiter im Empfang immer stehen müssen. Das ist nicht gut für die Gesundheit und das Wohlbefinden dieser so tollen Mitarbeiter.

Positiv:: No complaints at all

Negativ:: Fernando on reception was excellent

Positiv:: Friendly staff good location

Negativ:: Kettle did not work

Positiv:: The apartment was very clean and spacious. There was lots of storage and it had everything we needed.

Negativ:: It could get quite noisy in the evening but only what you would expect from an apartment block.

Positiv:: Location space and pool perfect. A few mins stroll to spar shop and down to marina another 15. Lovely clean pool and quiet setting. Apartment had everything you need.

Positiv:: Excellent in every way, would stay there if I ever go back to Portugal

Negativ:: Liked everything

Positiv:: You get what you pay for that’s all a can say Quiet stay tho

Negativ:: No staff Never seen a maid the whole week we were there Very very dated

Positiv:: The Lazeria apartments offer everything you need for a great stay! Adequate facilities and a very welcoming and helpful host!

Positiv:: well equipped and very comfy beds. Also the manager was very very helpful.

Negativ:: The loungers didn't have cushions so were not very comfy! Also very little shade as there were no umbrellas.

Positiv:: Pool mainly to ourselves, nice quiet place, manager was friendly.

Negativ:: Rooms all need redecoration and new furniture, very dated, these apartments have not been updated since the 1980s or 70s, very old furniture. It's about a 25 minute walk to marina which is not a problem, not 15 as advertised.

Positiv:: Nice clean apartments, nice location, thank you Fernando for making us welcome. Recommended !!!!
