Friendly staff and comfortable room, but didn’t blow us away.
Pros:

Friendly staff, clean and comfortable. We were in Quinta da Largo for a wedding.

Cons:

The food was very basic and no Portuguese influence at all.
Very heavily used by groups of men on golf holidays.
Atmosphere could be so much better than it is.

Lovely time but bedrooms need urgent upgrade
Pros:

Staff and food.

Cons:

Bedrooms are very dated and the bathroom desperately needs attention it felt grubby, rust on mirror, broken tile, sink looked cracked and stained. Only 1 bottle of water provided for one week’s stay.

Perfect solo getaway for R&R!
Pros:

I went off peak so I enjoyed a quite stay which is my preference. The staff were very friendly, kind and helpful. The Magnolia picnic bag was a lovely addition to my beach day!

Cons:

The bathroom is the smallest bathroom I have ever been in, it’s not practical for using the loo, there is no space to sit down as the wall is too close and no space in the bathroom to dry yourself. There is also no footpath outside the hotel so it is unsafe to walk anywhere from the hotel, I had to use Uber for a 2 min drive as the 10 min walk on the road was too dangerous.
