I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was very central and convenient for exploring the Algarve, and the pool area was a definite highlight, the service left much to be desired, especially during busy times. The rooms were comfortable but could use some updates and maintenance. Overall, it was a good getaway but improvements in service and room quality are needed.

The hotel offers a fantastic gardening and a good golfing experience, making it a well-rounded destination. The rooms are comfortable and spacious, but the service could be improved, especially considering the expectations of a top-tier hotel. While the dining options were decent, they fell short when it came to variety and quality. Overall, it was a nice stay but showed signs of needing a refresh.

My experience at the hotel was quite mixed. The location is great for golfers and close to the beach, and I found the grounds to be beautifully maintained. However, the dining options could definitely use some improvement, and I was disappointed with the overall discomfort of the beds and the conditions of the rooms. For the price, I expected more from a spa hotel, especially regarding room quality and service flexibility.
