Lovely Stay at AP Oriental with some minor refining
Pros:

Overall, staff are so friendly and professional! They were really helpful along the way of our trip. The location of the hotel is also perfect if you intend on spending your time at the beach! Breakfast provided in the hotel was decent.

Cons:

I think the hotel does have a lot of positives but it could do with a bit more refinement to align to its 4 star rating. Perhaps the cleaning product used by housekeeping could be better because it leaves a very dusty/ odd smell in the room after housekeeping but this is fixed by airing out the room. I also think the pool bar at lunch could be managed better and plating of food could be much better. The sandwiches we ordered looked very thrown together and looked unappealing as it was falling off the toothpick it was held up with. The quality could be improved by using fresher ingredients so that it’s stands to the pricing.

Se voltar a Portimão ficarei, certamente, hospedada aqui.
Pros:

Localização, pequeno almoço, insonorização e simpatia dos funcionários, são os pontos fortes.

Cons:

A única coisa que achámos menos bem foi o atendimento na piscina, demasiado demorado.
