Stunning Hotel and Staff

From the minute we arrived at the Hotel we were impressed. Stunning building, very Friendly staff from the Housekeeping, Reception and the Waiting on staff. Very clean, Breakfast choice was really varied and quality. The Pool was lovely and the best sun loungers we have ever lay on. The Food and drinks around the rooftop bar was also excellent and the Waiter service was a bonus. I will not hesitate in staying here again it was superb.

Having stayed here three years ago with my husband and enjoyed it very much I booked for my sister and I to stay. I paid extra for a balcony thinking I’d have a similar view as my husband and I had had, overlooking the city rooftops, but no! Our ‘view’ was of the next door building and scaffolding and overlooking the ‘inside garden’ which is basically the smoking area, rendering the balcony useless to us. We asked to change rooms the following morning to be told they were fully booked and it wasn’t possible. Disappointing as a returning customer. The staff are all lovely and the cleaners excellent. The rooftop pool is great if you can get a sunbed! There aren’t that many and it was often difficult especially as some people left towels on them then disappeared for three or four hours, shame on them. The rooftop bar is very nice too though the cocktails are pretty poor tbh and for some reason the sangria was never the same twice! The beer is cold and refreshing and there are some nice snacks or lunches to be had. Nothing would stop me returning though and I will be back though I’ll double check which view I’ll be getting next time 🙂
The view from our balcony 😢

You won’t regret staying here! It’s super clean and relaxing. All staff is friendly and ready to help with any adventure you are trying to do. The pool areas has stunning views. The location is close enough to everything ( walking distance to water activities; restaurants; and bars) yet far enough away that it’s quiet at night and relaxing! Highly recommend.

Highly recommended

This was our third stay & we will likely return so that’s a good recommendation I think! The rooms are thoughtfully designed, most have balconies where one can sun bathe or picnic or read a book. The hotel is in the centre of Olhao & the front desk staff are always very helpful. The bar & small swimming pool on the top floor are good spaces & offer wonderful views of the town.
