Pros:

Funcionários possuem um atendimento impecável.

Cons:

Cama extra totalmente desconfortável e velha. Colchão finíssimo. O frigobar não refrigera suficiente. A banheira é alta. Minha filha ia se machucando. Não aconselho para pessoas idosas ou com alguma limitação.

Pros:

Todo perfecto .
Instalación, personal, buffet.
Lo recomiendo 100%.
Si que esta en Gaia pero aparcamiento sin problema y luego para desplazarte a Oporto que hay un poquito caminando se pide un transporte y listo.

Para los más pequeños de la casa
Pros:

Para familias es perfecto, el desayuno es completo y variado.El personal es amable y competente. Tiene una piscina y un pequeño parque para los más pequeños de la casa. Las habitaciones no son las más modernas, pero son amplias, confortables y sobre todo limpias. Si no quieres salir a comer fuera, el restaurante está bien aunque se echa en falta algo más de variedad. Si llevas una semana casi no sabrás que pedir para no repetir. Me gustó que tuviera una pequeña zona de juegos cerca del restaurante. Tiene parking amplio.

Cons:

La zona está un poco aislada para dar un paseo sin depender del coche.

Pros:

Отдыхали здесь втроем с дочкой и остались очень довольны. У отеля отличное расположение: сразу после заселения мы спустились к океану в уютную деревушку, где нашли замечательный ресторан с вкусной рыбой на гриле.

Номер комфортный, троим места было вполне достаточно. Очень удобный матрас и отличный напор воды в душе. При отеле есть парковка, что особенно удобно для путешествующих на автомобиле. Также на территории есть бассейн, но в начале мая было еще прохладно для купания. С удовольствием остановились бы здесь снова.

Peut vraiment mieux faire et donc trop cher pour ce que c’est
Pros:

La piscine, mais les horaires sont trop restreint.
Le petit déjeuner est copieux

Cons:

La climatisation ne fonctionnait pas bien. La literie pour 4 personnes pas à la hauteur.
L’accès en bus comme mentionné n’existe pas à proximité immédiate.
