Beautiful property. Breakfast was amazing! The spa service was so great, I got a massage and extended it because it was wonderful. The pool areas were clean and very well maintained. The resort is conveniently close the beach, you are able to access the beach from the hotel. It was easy to get a car service to different nearby areas.

Overall value and experience only fair

Overall our stay was pleasant, the room was big enough but felt a bit cramped in the bathroom area. Outdoor space, including pool area and bars, the park and access to the beach, as well as access to other structures for dinner are beautiful. But…the property description was not clear about this hotel having a convention center attached which draws large groups. That plus a large wedding group from the UK caused a lot of commotion, inappropriate noise, resulting in the advertised ambience (think spa/wellness) to be compromised. We will not visit again and will search for better fitting accommodations with better value. Almost $600 lodging per night including breakfast deserves more.

A fabulous 4 night stay. Wanted to relax and enjoy the weather and this was perfect. Facilities are excellent and the staff warm and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. We had a So Suite which was very large with breakfast and brunch and the brunch is a great option. The grounds are so pretty, an easy walk to the beach where you can paddle for miles and we loved the poolside area by Lima. Easy taxi ride from Faro and only 20 mins to Albufeira. I would highly recommend.
