Wonderful Breakfast, Beautiful Views
Pros:

The lady that checked us in was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was Amazing with a huge variety to choose from. The grounds were nicely kept and I appreciated that we could also visit the "sister" hotel. Enjoyed the balcony and all the areas tucked away to sit and relax.

Cons:

Our fridge wasn't working when we arrived but they did come and fix it. Our AC unit kept turning completely off during the night so we woke up hot each night. This is an older hotel so it had that musty older hotel smell. One thing that bothered me was the signage in the bathroom asking us to reuse our towels to "conserve water". Which I am all for. But then you look outside to see the sprinklers going watering grass and employees literally spraying off the entire poolside. If water conservation is such a priority then why are you waisting water on cleaning the deck. Can it not be swept?

Petit déjeuner varié et très bon.
Nous avons pu prendre nos repas dans une ambiance calme.

We had a fantastic stay. The location is breathtaking and the grounds are well-maintained.
Pros:

Everything was perfect. The location is stunning, and the grounds are beautiful thanks to the hotel's setting. The room was spotless, and I was pleasantly surprised by an upgrade room - a lovely touch!

We had the best, most relaxing stay with lovely staff, guests and FOOD :D
Pros:

The facilities were just wonderful. If you didn't want to wander outside the hotel, you didn't need to, however we had a lovely time wandering around the surrounding areas and finding more beaches and places to eat.

Cons:

We found the trek up from the beach via the stairs tough going, but as I said, there are lots of other beaches in the area so if you absolutely had to have a beach swim, there are lots of other, more accessible beaches in the area which don't have that climb.

Stayed for 4 nights, staff were very friendly and helpful, food was amazing , lots of choice, access to the beach was gr
Pros:

Location, facilities, staff, food, calming feeling there and WOW the views !

Cons:

It was really lovely, if I had to be picky I would say that they need to check air con in rooms, ours kept reverting to 30 degree heat after a couple of hours, and iron in the room would be useful but they did have an ironing room., a little bit of information on the area around us would be helpful too on checkin, some nice bars and cafes around the corner! Would have saved us going into Albufeira and Vilamora some of the evenings.

Absolutely fabulous weekend away!
Pros:

Everything was exceptional, from the warm greeting on arrival to the fabulous meals at the restaurant. All the meals and all restaurants at both Falesia and Blue Ocean were exceptional. My sister and I were celebrating her 40th with a sisters weekend away. We had a wonderful break and will definitely be coming back with the family this time.

Cons:

More milk in the fridges for tea and the pillows were not very comfortable.

Doskonałe wakacje
Pros:

Lokalizacja i widok jest niesamowity jeden z najpiękniejszych na Algarve. Dobre miejsce na zwiedzanie wybrzeża. Ponadto spokój i szum oceanu. Śniadanie bardzo urozmaicone i pyszne. Personel bardzo miły i pomocny. Bardzo wygodne łóżka i poduszki:) Wi-fi bez zarzutu. To nie był mój pierwszy pobyt w tym hotelu i na pewno nie ostatni:)

Les chambres ne sont pas bien insonorisées. On entend les voisins et les bruits de couloir, c'est dommage.
