Friendly, First Class Service from all the staff

We would definitely stay there again and, would have no hesitation in recommending the Magnolia to friends and family. Thank you for making our holiday in the Algarve so memorable

Pros:

The Magnolia is a very clean, the suites are the perfect home from home with great decor and comfortable beds, the staff are friendly and attentive and always ready to help with a smile. It is also in a great location, has a lovely pool with plenty of sunloungers and a lovey pool bar area to have lunch and relax in the evening.

Lovely thank you
Pros:

Excellent staff , rooms good. Pool excellent

Cons:

The only thing is the road to Quinta shopping - it's a short easy walk but on a main road. Ideally there would be a safe path.

A great stay in a great location
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at the hotel and thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our experience. The facilities were excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff made us feel well looked after throughout our stay. One of the best things about the location was how easy it was to get around using Uber, with quick and convenient rides available to all the nearby restaurants and beaches you really are 10 minutes from everywhere you'd want to go. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and we would happily recommend it to others.
