Pestana Group Monchique hotels

"Was fine for what it was. "

"For a hotel with as many rooms as it has, the area around the pool and restaurant never felt crowded, we were always able to get sunbeds for our party of 3. Reception was very welcoming when we arrived late (due to delays in passport control) which was heartening. Our room was spacious and well maintained, the housekeeping team were great. It would have been better if there were sufficient seats on the balcony - we moved a seat from the dining table so we could all sit together. The kitchen was well equipped and a great facility - although we didn't self cater - plenty of glasses and plates for drinks and snacks. Breakfast was good, although the choices were the same every day (but then again, breakfast is breakfast). More fruit choices would have been a plus. Checkout was seamless: as we were leaving early and would miss the breakfast service, we were offered a substitute which was great - no prompt was needed, again very welcome. Top marks for customer service and hospitality - thank you for a great stay."

"Loved everything about this property. Views and property were beautiful, rooms were spacious, modern, and quiet, easily walkable to a great beach (Praia do Porto de Mos), multiple pool options, and 10 min walk to access the boardwalk that runs to the lighthouse and then the string of beautiful beaches close by (Praia de Camilo, Praia da Ana etc). Very close drive to Old Town which was very charming and had tons of shops and restaurants. Would highly recommend!"

"I highly recommend getting a massage. 30 minutes is only 34 euro. Buffett breakfast was excellent, lots of options. Overall, exceptional place to stay. "

"It is a beautiful and scenic hotel with wonderful views that is large enough to find quiet spaces if you are an adult without kids but also seems to accommodate children very well. Breakfast is excellent and the staff at the hotel are friendly and attentive. The concierge Ines was so helpful if arranging boat excursions, dinner reservations and car rentals. The property is walking distance to town and also to many other beaches. An excellent choice for staying in this area"

"Property is really nice and clean. The staff are helpful and polite. The pools are really clean and the water was just perfect ! Only downside was the dinner buffet, we found that the quality of food served is no where near the level of everything else at the hotel"

"First Class service"

"Love Monchique resort & spa, clean, staff are very welcoming especially Pedro the guest relations manager. Very big room with 2 bathrooms & a great view with a terrace. Full amenities in the room just missing a washing machine for the clothes. 2 pools & a gym with fitness classes. Beautiful surroundings, great hotel, I would definitely suggest it or even go back, thank you Monchique resort & spa, we loved our stay the Pereira family!"
