Location
Guest Reviews
Great location. Nice renovated bar. Most staff are pleasant and helpful.
Unfortunately there were a few hiccups. Most of the staff are kind and helpful. But the level of service is not what you would expect given the price. Example, on going down to breakfast on last day, there were people ahead of us being being seen by the staff. So we simply sat down at a table rather than waiting to be seen. It's a breakfast buffet and the hotel is fairly small so it's not a good use of time to have guest lining up waiting just to get into breakfast. Also the food in the Flor de Lis was heavily oversalted. Food quality was nothing special. Although the terrace is pleasant.
Very slippery marble bathroom floors. Someone will hurt themselves for sure. The room and balcony were on the small side.
Beautiful location, superb breakfast, great spa, very comfortable and quiet room
Cleanliness of rooms, superb breakfast, waiters and staff polite and helpful. Found little bars of chocolate every day left on the beds.
One of the tables for two outside on the patio was located close to the drain ,so it was a bit smelly.
The waiters were very polite but spoke very little English. We felt that we couldn't ask for their menu recommendations or have a deeper conversation whereas they chatted away and were explaining the menu to Portuguese speakers.
Another misleading thing was that on their website it says that there are Turkish baths which was their steam sauna. It might be just a mistake on the website but we chose the hotel with the thought of a Turkish hammam.
The Spa and the rooms.
I stayed at Vila Foz for 7 nights as part of a Jet 2 package holiday and from the moment I arrived I felt like the most important guest.
The location is beautiful, away from the noise of Porto and just across the road from the shady promenade and lovely Atlantic Ocean. Within the hotel you are not aware of external noise at all and it did not disturb my breakfast when I chose to eat outside.
My room was one of the smaller Anice rooms but was generous in size, beautifully appointed with everything I could possibly need even down to umbrellas and sun hats. It was in the newer part of the hotel and overlooked a quiet road. The room was cleaned everyday and linen changed. The rest of the hotel’s public rooms were spotlessly clean at all times.
The atmosphere in the ground floor rooms was inviting, the panelling conducive to quiet chats with friends. I found the staff exceptional in that they all, porters, reception staff, dining staff and bar staff demonstrated the very best of warm Portuguese hospitality and friendliness, even advising on wonderful day trips, helping with the loss of a phone in Porto and remembering my evening tipple.
Breakfast was amazing, a fantastic selection of fresh fruits conveniently cut to bite size and the widest selection of cereals, juices, breads, breakfast meats, cheese, eggs. I didn’t try the oysters and champagne but they were there.
I did not try the spa facilities so cannot comment nor did I eat in the Michelin star restaurant.
This was a luxury break of 7 nights which included flights. I was very happy with the value and would have no hesitation in recommending Vila Foz if you want a very comfortable 5*hotel with very good food, lovely walks just across the road and away from the bustle of Porto. The 500 bus stops a few yards from the hotel every 20 minutes so it is easy to get into the city, taxis are frequent and there are bicycles available if you choose.
Lage!
Beautiful hotel, spa, and pool . Located across from the coastline. The restaurant was exceptional, along with the staff. This was truly a 5 star hotel and I would highly recommend to others !
O hotel é globalmente muito bom . O Spa óptimo.
A única coisa que precisa de ser optimizada é o black out , ainda entra muita luz pela janela aos primeiros raios de sol !
Wunderschoenes ambiente, vorzuegliche Strandlage. Alles war perfekt vom Fruehstueck bis zum Betthuepferl.
Es gab nichts,das mir nicht gefallen hat, aber auch gar nichts.
Vista
Não têm qualidade hoteleira suficiente para o valor que cobram.
Se compararem o serviço com o Yeatman, percebem que têm muito que evoluir.
Sou cliente do Yeatman, nesta estadia resolvi experimentar o vila fiz e fiquei completamente arrependida.
Existem hotéis com 4 estrelas bem melhores.
Existem muitas restrições, nomeadam tirar fotografias.
Não percebo porquê uma vez que existem as mesmas na internet. É claro que nunca tirar a fotografia e incluir um um hóspede.
Penso que até deveriam colocar o hotel só para adultos.
As fotografias do jardim são completamente diferentes da realidade. Até achei o jardim necessitava de mais cuidado
Fantastic spa and breakfast buffet
Limited bar menu and housekeeping could be better
‼️ I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding my stay at Vila Foz Hotel & Spa.
I booked their Onice Room. According to the official description on the hotel’s website, this room type is described as overlooking “one of Porto’s picturesque streets.”
However, the reality of the room I was given was entirely different. The direct, central view from my balcony was a line of municipal waste containers (ecopontos) located directly underneath the window, together with a parking lot. There was also a distinct unpleasant smell coming from that area. In my view, this did not correspond to the advertised “picturesque” experience or to what one would reasonably expect from a 5-star, MICHELIN Key property charging around €500 per night.
I was also deeply disappointed by the reception’s handling of this issue. When I brought this mismatch to their attention, I did not receive what I considered to be an adequate apology or an equivalent solution. Instead, I was told that moving to a room that better matched the standard I had expected would require an additional payment — first €100, later reduced to €75. I found this unacceptable. In my opinion, the room description did not match the actual room experience I received, and the proposed solution placed the burden of correcting that mismatch on the guest. I have fully documented the view with photographs and videos.
We hoped that at least the following day would pass without any further issues. Unfortunately, the problems started again at breakfast.
First, they forgot to bring coffee for one of us. When we politely reminded them, we were informed that our order had been lost, even though one of the cups of coffee from the same order had in fact already been delivered. We were also surprised to learn that breakfast was supposed to include a hot dishes menu. Nobody had offered it to us. Why this happened remains unclear to us. At that point, we decided not to argue further, as our previous attempts to resolve issues had not produced a satisfactory response.
Then, during check-out, we spent over half an hour trying to explain to the reception staff — three of whom were present — that this level of service was absolutely unacceptable for a hotel of this category. Unfortunately, we did not receive any meaningful resolution.
Aside from apologies, we did not feel that the hotel properly acknowledged the mistakes or the seriousness of the experience. The overall impression we were left with was that our concerns were not taken seriously. For a luxury hotel, this was extremely disappointing.
It is also a massive shock to me that a hotel offering this level of experience is included in the MICHELIN Guide and holds a MICHELIN Key. I sincerely hope the MICHELIN Guide monitors the reputation and guest experience of the properties it includes. I am also considering submitting a formal complaint through the Livro de Reclamações Eletrónico.
In short: never again. Based on my stay, I cannot recommend Vila Foz Hotel & Spa.
The breakfast was excellent and the location was lovely for walks and so close to the beach. Dinner in the restaurant as also excellent and the staff were extremely friendly.
Lack of sun loungers. When we arrived our room wasn’t ready and we felt we had nowhere to go. There was very little seating outside to relax in the sun.
