I would give AP Cabanas hotel 5* but unfortunately our room flooded whilst we were staying there. We stayed June 2024 and found the staff to be great. Food was lovely and the hotel itself was nice.
One of the members of staff noticed the leak from outside our room and it had gone through the floor and out into the main reception area 😱 they made us back our stuff up and move to a different room and kindly gave us a bottle of something and a fruit platter to say sorry.
The local cabanas beach is beautiful and the eco boats were a fun ride!
Rooftop pool is lovely and the bar as well

We have enjoyed our stay here.
They gave every woman a flower the next morning after our arrival.
The room is clean and well presented.
The staff is friendly, polite and helpful.
On my husband's birthday, he got a bottle of champagne, a chocolate cake and a note with beautiful wishes, that were a nice surprise to us, when we returned to the hotel late at night from a trip.
Drinks were well made. I paid for some that are not free included on the menu.
The Grill bar and Rio restaurant serve tasty food as well. Plenty of snaks, fruits, drinks during the day by the pool.
A good pianist played live at breakfast on 2 days of our stay. There was live music on one evening: a singer and a guitarist performed about 3-4 hours
The central restaurant is in a good location that you can have a romantic dinner in the sunset.
Good place for appropriate price.

**Review: AP Cabanas Beach & Nature**
Having not travelled abroad since before the pandemic, I was understandably apprehensive about taking a trip. However, my stay at AP Cabanas Beach & Nature turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The cleanliness of the place and the cheerful, helpful staff were noteworthy. The room was clean and met our needs adequately.
The pools were quite cold, and the main pool was often taken over by seagulls, resembling a bird bath more than a swimming pool. Luckily, the indoor pool in the spa area made up for it. We had the spa to ourselves most of the time, which was absolutely amazing!
The food at AP Cabanas Beach & Nature was good, though it could have been better. Being a fish lover, I enjoyed fish dishes every night. However, the meat was tough, and as a result, I found myself sticking to a pescatarian diet throughout the stay.
I'll just add that the pianist at breakfast was lovely, but one evening during dinner, I swear they were playing rave music! You should have seen the faces of some diners.
The staff were friendly and went out of their way to help organise trips to town, the beach, and the shopping mall, which was very convenient. The only downside was the bar staff, who seemed to need more training, in my opinion.
Despite these minor issues, we had a wonderful time, especially as it was our first trip to Portugal. This all-inclusive holiday at AP Cabanas Beach & Nature has definitely encouraged us to consider more adventures in the future.

Beautiful setting and very nice rooms. Facilities are great. However the food is extremely disappointing. Luckily we didn’t do all-inclusive, and only had breakfast as well as trying lunch at the Grill. If you enjoy food that comes from frozen, from a can or full of preservatives maybe you’ll enjoy the food. The coffee is terrible, there is one machine you eventually find with actual real coffee beans that is half decent. The scrambled eggs are dry and crumbly, I don’t even know if it’s real eggs. Nothing seems to be homemade, it looks and tastes like it comes out of a box from the freezer of a supermarket, and not even the good kind. I think you’re far better off spending the money eating out in town. The staff is friendly although I get the idea that no one really knows what they’re doing, it doesn’t seem like anyone is in charge, resulting in tables that aren’t set and guests trying to ask for knives and forks. I also don’t understand why you would be playing music through speakers in the hallways outside the rooms until 10pm? The price quality ratio in terms of August prices is really not worth it.
