Independent Sotavento hotels

"The male servers working the roof top deck were terrable. It took for ever to get service and drinks. We had to go to the bar and pick up our drinks. We asked for a food menu and he dropped it off and never came back to place an order. Most of the other tables experienced the same terrable service. This was the first place while in Portugal were we never left a tip."

"The Hotel and Staff were both stunning, everyone from reception to Pool Bar did everything possible to make our short stay extremely enjoyable. Room was spotless, bed very comfortable and a TV with Worldwide coverage (if you cared enough to think of home ), Tea and Coffee making facilities had no milk, this was immediately resolved by staff. Location is excellent, short walk in all directions brings you out at bars and cafes of Olhao."

"Love this place. Very convenient for the airport with a nice pool and sun loungers. Sadly the restaurant next door has closed since our last visit but Pingo Doce supermarket is only a short walk for a picnic or they have a cafe. Only improvement would be a kettle in the room!"

"Wonderful property. Extremely clean and well maintained. Service was top notch and it was in a perfect location. "

"The room smelt lovely upon entering, very clean and functional, no extra tho' eg coffee tea making facilities, which makes you get up for breakfast. 24hour bar service means you can have tea coffee or whatever you wish at anytime. The staff are happy to help and ordering drinks after midnight was done with a by the duty staff. Breakfast was good value for money."

"We have been assigned a room at the ground level, right next to the cafetiere, and not far from the elevator and reception area. Very noisy !"

"Was our 30th anniversary and throughly enjoyed the hotel and all its amenities. Superb breakfast. Picturesque views from all angles and of the beachfront.make sure check out the next town Albufeira only 25 minutes Uber ride.we really enjoyed our time together"

"Everything worked great - simple clean great location "

"Staff were mostly very helpful apart from one of the male reception managers who was rude and dismissive. Housekeeping was generally very good , didn't always replenish toiletries or wash crockery in the room pool area ok not attractive and overlooking the road. It isn’t really a 5 star hotel 4 star at best. Breakfast was good but in a room which was hot and stuffy next to the car park. No where outside to eat breakfast. Definitely upgrade to a sea view room otherwise you are looking at a block of apartments. Not pleasant. I had to request my complimentary bottle of wine ."
