Pros:

The proximity to Carvoeiro old town, restaurants and the seaside

Cons:

The staff weren't very helpful or friendly. Also, even though the hotel atmosphere was calm, because of heavy wooden chairs on the tiled floors everywhere, it was quite a loud at all times. And the pool area was right next to the road so was a bit noisy.

Pros:

A great location within easy reach of the village shops, restaurants and beach.
The staff were friendly and helpful.. The room was clean and had a comfortable bed. The breakfast was good, varied and plentiful.

Cons:

It was quite busy at breakfast particularly at the tea and coffee stations. It would have been ideal if this facility was available in the rooms.

A great resort feel reasonably priced! Loved it
Pros:

Beautiful resort feel. Clean well maintained and modern. Great pool and an incredible breakfast. Location away from the « strip ».

Cons:

Sometimes the DJ music at the pool was too loud considering that most of the patrons were older.

Schön , aber keine 4 Sterne fürs Zimmer
Pros:

Gute Lage für Ausflüge, zum Strand ca 15 Minuten Fußmarsch
Pool ok, Poolbar sehr ok
Viele Engländer und Golfer ( wobei nur eine Gruppe keine überheblichen Angeber sind ) Frühstück sehr gut und reichhaltig

Cons:

Badezimmer sollten dringend renoviert werden, Badewanne, nur Duschvorhang, Fön hat Kapazität einer lungenkranken Ameise, unbedingt selber einen mitnehmen.
Am Pool leider das übliche Spiel der ab 7 in der Früh mit Handtuch reservierten Liegen, arme Kleingeister und steinzeitliche Revierbesetzer!

Pros:

Had an amazing stay at Mirachoro Carvoeiro! Welcomed by very friendly staff, received a free upgrade to a beautiful suite with a sea view balcony, breakfast was delicious, and clean throughout the whole hotel. All the staff were so friendly also. Amazing location just minutes walk away from the coastal boardwalk and amenities of the town/ beach. Less than 10 minute drive to Benagil caves also. Would recommend staying here for everyone!

A relaxing holiday with a great pool area
Pros:

Breakfast was great, plenty of everything. Food at the Pool Bar was excellent, as were the staff. Room was good - bathroom a little compact and my one pet hate is a shower curtain - very outdated. However it was very clean. Would be nice to have a kettle in the room. We would definitely return.

Cons:

There wasn't anything we didn't like
