Just book it !!
Pros:

Do not hesitate to book - this is such an amazing hotel ! My boyfriend and I stayed here for just under a week and our expectations were succeeded by so much.

The location is beyond amazing - literally on the beautiful beach with free concession loungers included and beautiful pool that looks out to the ocean also with free loungers. So a private pool and beach basically it was so nice!

The staff made it - non stop smiles and always helping guests out they were so hard working.

The breakfast off the charts - massive buffet with fresh and tasty foods - kept us going till dinner time 🤣

We haven’t stopped raving about this hotel since we came home, thank you Hotel Algarve Casino.

La habitación muy decepcionante
Pros:

Lo mejor la ubicación, la terraza y la piscina

Cons:

Las habitaciones se pueden corresponder con un hotel de 2 estrellas, huele a humedad , no hay enchufes cerca de cama , mobiliario viejo y en malas condiciones, muy poca luz en las habitaciones. No se corresponde con un 5 estrellas. Decepcionante.

Pros:

It was ok for a short stay, but not for a proper vacation.

Cons:

The beach next to the hotel was closed because of a festival (beach beds were supposed to be included in the hotel stay... and that was one of the reasons we booked. Only after the non-refundable period we were informed about the beach closure, with no other options) and we could not spend time there unless we had to pay for the beach beds in the part of the beach which was open.

Pros:

la posizione e' ottima proprio in fronte alla spiaggia ed al centro del paese, il personale e' cordiale e gli ambienti puliti. ho molto apprezzato i teli mare gratuiti

Cons:

sicuramente non e' un hotel a 5 stelle, gli ambienti anche se di ampia metratura devono essere rivisti e ammoderanti. la colazione e' gradevole anche se essendoci ospiti internazionali si basa piu' su alimenti salati che dolci ma c'e una bella varieta'. bocciata invece la cena, se pago per la mezza pensione quella deve essere. non esiste un buffet, in pratica viene dato un menu' dove scegliere tra due antipasti ( uno dei quali e' insalata ) e un 'altra scelta tra due secondi. qualora il piatto non sia gradito si puo' ordinare da una lista ma si deve pagare la differenza di prezzo. Non mi e' mai successo in un hotel a 5 stello di dover pagare per la cena, visto che ho fatto la mezza pensione. suggerisco vivamente di specificare all'atto della prenotazione che queste sono le regole..... in questo caso avrei confermato solo il pernottamento ,la colazione e basta. consiglio inoltre di rivedere gli ambienti, soprattutto la sala pranzo dove ho appoggiato la borsa sulla vecchia moquetta che era tutta bagnata essendoci una perdita dei condizionatori. avendo assorbito l'umido mi sono ritrovata con tutto il contenuto bagnato. non ho potuto farlo presente al personale in quanto me ne sono accorta dopo poco.

Such a wonderful relaxing holiday
Pros:

Our 4th visit here, the only hotel we have returned back to. I can't tell you how relaxing and health improving this 10 day break was. We paid for a sea view which is the best part for me, I fell asleep listening to the sea and woke up listening to the sea as I never shut the balcony door. The Hotel is spotless 5* clean towels and maid service every day. We booked bed breakfast which was great as we could go out exploring in the daytime. Breakfast there was plenty to choose from, not the normal bacon and sausage but you can order fresh omelette or fried eggs. The smoked salmon was delicious I had it every day with fresh eggs. Plenty of breads cheeses cooked meats cereal fresh fruit. I prefer to take my own coffee/tea and you can ask for a hot pot of water. We walked up to Continente supermarket in Portimão (30 minutes) and jumped an uber back so cheap, beautiful food there for snacks. salads and drinks. You can ask to empty your mini bar and fill with your items. The staff are so lovely and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Fabulous lil cafe at the pool with really nice lunches (goes well with a jug of sangria). Great bar near reception sells all kinds of drinks and cocktails, just wonderful having a drink on the balcony here with an amazing view. 5 mins and you are on the beach, golden sands spotless apart from the beautiful shells you can collect. 5 mins there are cafes bars shops everything you need really. Crackin lil tapas bar called Tapas ó Destapas 10 mins down a lil side street you can find on google. If you come out of hotel turn right a wonderful ice cream bar Gelateria Sorbetto and a bit further up a wonderful pizza place La Bruschetta owned by Sicilians, gorgeous coffee too. We went on a boat trip to Silves booked online at getyourguide.com, what a fabulous day out really enjoyed it. Yes the hotel is a lil dated and could do with a refurb but I doubt I would be able to afford it then. No doubt we will be going back again when we need another refresh and recharge. Thank you to all the staff :)
