Otrzymałem to co sobie zaplanowałem
Pros:

Bardzo fajny kameralny hotel, super jedzienie, bardzo czysto fajny basen

Cons:

Może nie tyle, że się nie podobało ale warto byłoby mieć możliwość wypożyczenia leżaków aby poleżeć na pobliskiej plaży .

Another relaxing and enjoyable stay at Vila Foz
Pros:

This is our second stay at the hotel and we returned because we enjoyed the location, ambience and service last time.
Loved the opportunity to enjoy breakfast outside. Much warmer this visit than the previous visit.
We had a room overlooking the sea which is to be recommended - The first time we had a 3rd floor room which offers a slightly more far reaching view over the sea than the first floor - but still a lovely view to wake up to so no complaints.
Pool area is secluded from the main hotel and staff are all very attentive.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike

Not as good as the price would suggest
Pros:

Great location. Nice renovated bar. Most staff are pleasant and helpful.

Cons:

Unfortunately there were a few hiccups. Most of the staff are kind and helpful. But the level of service is not what you would expect given the price. Example, on going down to breakfast on last day, there were people ahead of us being being seen by the staff. So we simply sat down at a table rather than waiting to be seen. It's a breakfast buffet and the hotel is fairly small so it's not a good use of time to have guest lining up waiting just to get into breakfast. Also the food in the Flor de Lis was heavily oversalted. Food quality was nothing special. Although the terrace is pleasant.

Very slippery marble bathroom floors. Someone will hurt themselves for sure. The room and balcony were on the small side.

Pros:

Cleanliness of rooms, superb breakfast, waiters and staff polite and helpful. Found little bars of chocolate every day left on the beds.

Cons:

One of the tables for two outside on the patio was located close to the drain ,so it was a bit smelly.
The waiters were very polite but spoke very little English. We felt that we couldn't ask for their menu recommendations or have a deeper conversation whereas they chatted away and were explaining the menu to Portuguese speakers.
Another misleading thing was that on their website it says that there are Turkish baths which was their steam sauna. It might be just a mistake on the website but we chose the hotel with the thought of a Turkish hammam.

An unforgettable first welcome to Portugal
Pros:

I stayed at Vila Foz for 7 nights as part of a Jet 2 package holiday and from the moment I arrived I felt like the most important guest.
The location is beautiful, away from the noise of Porto and just across the road from the shady promenade and lovely Atlantic Ocean. Within the hotel you are not aware of external noise at all and it did not disturb my breakfast when I chose to eat outside.
My room was one of the smaller Anice rooms but was generous in size, beautifully appointed with everything I could possibly need even down to umbrellas and sun hats. It was in the newer part of the hotel and overlooked a quiet road. The room was cleaned everyday and linen changed. The rest of the hotel’s public rooms were spotlessly clean at all times.
The atmosphere in the ground floor rooms was inviting, the panelling conducive to quiet chats with friends. I found the staff exceptional in that they all, porters, reception staff, dining staff and bar staff demonstrated the very best of warm Portuguese hospitality and friendliness, even advising on wonderful day trips, helping with the loss of a phone in Porto and remembering my evening tipple.
Breakfast was amazing, a fantastic selection of fresh fruits conveniently cut to bite size and the widest selection of cereals, juices, breads, breakfast meats, cheese, eggs. I didn’t try the oysters and champagne but they were there.
I did not try the spa facilities so cannot comment nor did I eat in the Michelin star restaurant.
This was a luxury break of 7 nights which included flights. I was very happy with the value and would have no hesitation in recommending Vila Foz if you want a very comfortable 5*hotel with very good food, lovely walks just across the road and away from the bustle of Porto. The 500 bus stops a few yards from the hotel every 20 minutes so it is easy to get into the city, taxis are frequent and there are bicycles available if you choose.
