Tijd voor een renovatie en nieuwe chef-kok
Pros:

Ligging naast golfclub.
Grote kamer met mooi balkon. Grote badkamer.

Cons:

Het avondeten in buffetvorm. Het eten was niet lekker voor West-Europeanen.
Het publiek was voornamelijk Portugees en Engels.
De pasta was platgekookt. De worteltjes waren plat. De tomaten en meloen waren om en om plat.
Op 6 dagen ben ik 1.5 kilo afgevallen. Ik heb voornamelijk soep en sla gegeten.

Bij het ontbijtbuffet diende je koffie uit een machine te halen. De koffie smaakte naar warme choco. Theewater kwam ook uit de machine. Zeer weinig keuze in thee.
Pannenkoekejes waren koud. Eitjes waren goed.

Het hotel is geen 5-sterrenhotel zoals in West-Europa.
De eetzaal is aan vernieuwing toe. De afwerking is er niet. Stopcontact hangt los uit een pilaar. Behang hangt los. Ramen zijn vuil. Het water dat aan tafel in herbruikbare karaffen wordt verkocht: de karaffen waren vuil. Onsmakelijk.

Er is veel personeel maar ze zien niet altijd dat je ze wenkt. Kan beter.

Het zwembad: de liner hangt op bepaalde plaatsen los en er is algenvorming bij de waterrand.
Het zou leuk zijn als er bediening aan het zwembad zou zijn.

Descanso en Vilamoura
Pros:

El hotel está ubicado en una urbanización a 10min en coche de la marina de Vilamoura y la playa. No es complejo bajar, pero sí es imprescindible el uso de coche o taxi.
La habitación proporciona un espacio tranquilo e íntimo, destacando la cama, por su tamaño y confort. Por la noche no hay ruido alguno, facilitando el descanso. Quizás el cuarto de baño debería ser de mayor tamaño, al ser de un hotel de 5*.
La zona de piscina es amplia y agradable. No obstante, la mezcla del espacio de niños y adultos quizás debería regularse limitando un espacio para que los niños jueguen con el balón, ya que a veces perturba la tranquilidad que se espera de una zona de tumbonas.
El desayuno es amplio y ofrece de todo, destacando el espacio para elaboración al momento de tortillas y huevos variados. El punto flojo son los dulces, que no destacan ni por su variedad ni por su calidad.
Por último, el conjunto del personal es amable y dispuesto a facilitarte la estancia.

Cons:

La parte del hotel que debería mejorar sustancialmente es la relativa al pool bar y la oferta gastronómica. Dejando a un lado que la atención del personal siempre es magnífica, la calidad y variedad que ofrece el bar dista mucho de lo que se espera de un hotel de 5*. Y teniendo en cuenta que los precios son especialmente altos (una comida con dos platos, 4 cervezas y un postre ronda los 100 euros), este defecto se acusa especialmente.
Igualmente, se echa en falta un restaurante de más nivel para una eventual cena.

Férias Ótimas.

Gostei dos espaços compartilhados, das piscinas, sala de jogos e o pequeno almoço fantástico.

Nada boa
Pros:

Pequeno almoço bom. Mas a primeira vez que estou num hotel 5* e não existe sumos naturais

Cons:

Não correu como o esperado.

Dado que ficamos num quarto com acesso direto ao exterior, o facto de nos terem deixado por duas vezes as janelas abertas (após limpeza) é absolutamente inaceitável. Numa das ocasiões deixaram a porta do quarto aberta...
Após isto, desapareceu uma camisa durante as limpezas. Acredito que por ser branca, posso ter sido levada sem intenção. Mas esperavamos uma atitude diferente por parte do hotel. Apenas e só disseram que poderiamos comprar uma e mandar a fatura que pagavam. Enfim.

Todos estes episódios fizeram que passa-se uma estadia sempre e "pânico" pois não sabia se os episódios iriam repetir-se.

Esperávamos uma outra abordagem e compreensão por parte do hotel
