Independent Barlavento hotels

We stayed a quick 3 days and had a blast. Everyone was super friendly and inviting, breakfast was awesome, quick walk to the beach and a number of great restaurants, plus we were super excited for one of the better small hotel gyms we've been in - if your hotel has barbells and weights over 20kg, they're doing something right :) We'll certainly be recommending Lagos Atlantic to others and will hopefully be back in the future for more than just a few days!

Impressive property with fantastic views and location!

Went in off season which was perfect 70 degree weather and super quiet. Unbelievable for the low price !!! Great for a family

Listen, they are not going to be around a lot. No one at the desk when you arrive and not throughout the night. Its more a bed and breakfast. Front door is loud, you hear it when you sleep and other guests come and go. Those are the draw backs The staff, Anna especially is lovely. They did their best with redoing the place and conveniently located. Is it the best experience ever? No. But clean safe and close to beach and good breakfast

Very comfortable hotel with beautiful manicured grounds. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable and helpful. Breakfast buffet was superb. Only problem was a lack of local restaurants in easy walking distance, encouraging visitors to visit the resort restaurants which were mediocre and expensive.

nice breakfast， valuable price，walking distance to beach

The building has a lot of charm. Plants, flowers and classic Portuguese interior design. It feels you are in a farmhouse, not in a hotel. The breakfast was great with so many options. The attic room where we stayed was so spacious, with a huge bathroom and a private terrace. I'd point out that they gave us combined twin beds and not a queen/king bad, which wasn't ideal. Also, the listing mention that they have three pools which is not true. There is only one pool available. The other images are...

Excellent hotel and great service

We have spent a wonderful time in the sleepy and relaxing village of Salema. The Salema Beach Village is a brand new, beautifully located resort-like establishment. I don't think anyone before us stayed in the villa with the sea view we were staying in. (Sea view is worth this 30$ extra per night). They opened April 30, 2016. Villas are well designed, well equipped and give you a feeling of a little beautiful and luxiorous fishing village. Perfect place for a family holidays! Hotel beautifully...

Great small hotel—well appointed in a walkable location. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Clean hotel with easy to access location. Pools were clean and convenient to access. Balcony was large and easy to use. I will definitely recommend.

this is the 5th time that we stayed at Vilalara...this says something. We come here for the fantastic Thalasso spa and its great staff (multi lingual and so friendly), the most beautiful settings, the most unique gardens, the six pools, the direct access to their wonderful beach and also the location (easy to to reach). We spent a happy sojourn of 12 days and are ready to come back next year. Compared to ours previous experiences when Accor managed the place we had the feeling that there is...

We had a wonderful stay at White Shell Beach Villas in the Algarve! It was the perfect place for our family, especially with our 2.5 year old, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our room was spotless, and having a washing machine in the unit was incredibly helpful during our eight day stay, especially with daily trips to the beach and pool. The staff were exceptional, warm, welcoming, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. I also enjoyed several spa services, which were...

Beautiful area. Wonderful landscaping. Clean pool. Modern appliances. Friendly service.

This was a perfect hotel! Modern, clean rooms, lots of amenities, polite staff, a poolside bar, and a gorgeous pool!

The room was very clean and well equipped. We were upgraded to a suite which was lovely. Staff were more than helpful and did their utmost to ensure a comfortable stay. Can't say enough good things about the entire experience.

This hotel was wonderful !! The property is gorgeous and the beach is stunning! The hotel is very well kept, super clean, and well organized. The restaurants are great. Breakfast buffet was great options and quality and dinner options were amazing. Cocktails are the best! Properly made not just syrup. The pools were clean and actually heated. My kids loved playing. Overall a wonderful place to stay.

Very clean, staff helpful. Only issue was we had do not disturb sign on door, but came back to find beds made and towels replaced. Coffee though was not replenished, and counter at coffee station was left dirty. Nothing appeared to be missing.
