Posh hotel in a very convenient location to shopping malls, supermarkets and beach. Love it 💕
Pros:

Beautiful property in a lovely Spa resort. We loved the indoor warm pool. We did lots of lengths and then spent ten minutes in the sauna. Had a massive pool and pool bar. There are locker rooms and you get a locker key. Choice of six outdoor pools. Cleaners come everyday to clean replace towels , make your bed and leave you washing machine tabs or dishwasher tabs. And leave you pods for coffee machine. I tried the spa bath was amazing. They leave you l Occitane hand wash, shower gel and shampoo it was Amazing. Also staff were lovely and they have someone on reception 24/7. I had a WOW spa foot reflexology by Carlos who was a lovely man.

Cons:

Everyone has their own private garden you get a patio table and chairs. But I wasn’t allowed a lounger to sunbathe .

Was ooit een mooi park, maar slecht onderhouden helaas.
Pros:

Mooie ligging, ruime accomodaties.

Cons:

Veel achterstallig onderhoud aan het park. Binnenzwembad slecht onderhouden en niet schoon en 2/3 van de wellness niet in gebruik doordat het kapot is (7 nachten). Houtwerk langs zwembad rot en uitstekende splinters en spijkers. Echt zonde.

Peaceful resort with great atmosphere
Pros:

The resort is very well maintained and peaceful. The pools are clean and spacious, with plenty of sunbeds available. The landscaping with palm trees and the small bridge gives it a really nice atmosphere. Our accommodation was comfortable, clean, and well equipped. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay. The location is also convenient, with easy access to Carvoeiro and nearby beaches.
