Lovely to be back!
Pros:

This was my third stay at the Casablanca Hotel, last visit was about ten years ago - too long! I can honestly say it was as great as ever! I remembered it as a small and friendly place and this hasn’t changed. We were greeted by Carina on arrival and she’s a lovely welcoming person. All the staff are very helpful. Although it’s not super fancy, our room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed - very glad of the fridge and air con!

The buffet breakfast is very good, plenty of choice and regularly topped up.

Although the pool area is small, we didn’t have issues getting a lounger. The pool was clean and maintained every day. There’s a snack bar available if you get peckish later!

Monte Gordo isn’t a big resort, which is what we love about it. The beach is super and is just a few minutes’ walk away from the hotel. There’s an excellent selection of cafes and restaurants nearby too. If you have (or are with someone who has) limited mobility, Monte Gordo is ideal as it’s mostly flat (other resorts can be quite hilly) and shops, restaurants etc are close by.

All in all we’re very sad to be leaving Unique Hotel Casablanca, Monte Gordo and hope to return very soon.

Pros:

Gostei do atendimento e da localização.

Cons:

O pequeno almoço poderia ser mais variado. A fruta não estava madura. O hotel precisa de alguma atualização. O ar condicionado fazia muito barulho. O revestimento da porta da casa dd banho estava a descolar.
