Super
Pros:

Bardzo dobre śniadanie, znakomity wybór różnych dań. Mały parking ale można parkować w okolicy, nawet sugeruje. Do plaży 8 minut na piechotę. Dobra lokalizacja do zwiedzania Algarve. Niedaleko świetna plaża Alvor.

Pros:

La limpieza estaba muy bien. La terraza muy mona. El personal muy atento. La piscina súper tranquila, con todo adaptado y con musica relajante de fondo. El desayuno buffet estaba buenísimo. Ideal para desconectar de la vida cotidiana. Volveremos sin duda.

Cons:

No habia muchos percheros en la pared para colgar las toallas mojadas del baño o de la piscina.

Pros:

A localização é ótima. Funcionários, poucos mas excelentes. Pequeno almoço de boa qualidade. O facto de ser apenas para adultos deu-nos a tranquilidade desejada. Piscina excelente.

Cons:

Estivemos hospedados na vila no quarto 3, alemão beach, no qual é necessário manutenção dos puxadores das portas, tanto na porta da entrada do quarto assim como a da casa de banho.

Pros:

Ļoti patīkami pārsteidza šī klusā un mājīgā viesnīca. Rezervējām vienu nakti, bet rezultātā palikām ilgāk.
Numuriņš gaiš un tīrs. Brokastis pilnīgi pietiekamas. Personāls ļoti atsaucīgs. Paldies.
