The hotel itself was in a nice elevated position, sound proofing not great and every night there was very loud music til early hours. Not geared up for non Portuguese visitors language wise. The pool was nice, but the decking around it needs repair and was bit of a shock when the sprinklers came on as we were lying on Sunbeds! The spa looked lovely but we decided against it when told you could only enter if wearing a swimming cap - sort of kills the relaxed vibe! Staff were nice, limited food and drinks on offer when we arrived, but the bar sandwiches were great. Restaurant food was ok, but very reasonably priced
