Nice location on top of the hill if you want to be outside of the (relative) hustle of Praia da Luz. Provides great views from the rooms/balconies, and a steady breeze. Family rooms were very spacious, recently refurbed, balcony was big enough to sit and enjoy an evening drink. Mainly couples and adult groups, but our kids were made welcome. Breakfast was really good, plenty of choice. Restaurant for dinner was excellent food, but very quiet. Pool bar is reasonably priced and a nice vibe. All the staff were friendly - All in all, excellent.

From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The room was immaculate, stylish, and surprisingly spacious, with one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in. Housekeeping kept everything spotless throughout our stay.
The on-site restaurant served top-notch meals — seriously, don’t skip the breakfast. The pool area was clean and relaxing, with plenty of loungers and a great bar service. What truly stood out was the level of service — every team member was warm, helpful, and genuinely cared about our experience.
If I had to nitpick, the only slight drawback was the distance to the beach. It’s walkable, but not ideal if you're looking to step out and immediately hit the sand. That said, the quality of the hotel more than makes up for it. We’d absolutely stay here again and recommend it without hesitation!

I have visited this hotel for many years and the new management have changed it too much. I believe for the traveler who wants a base to sleep in it is still good value for money. For an old time Portugal devotee of fine dining and cocktails in the evening, this is no longer a desired destination. Only 2/3 years ago, the restaurant had a menu to be proud of - non-residents booked for its quality of choice, chef skills and atmosphere. An excellent restaurant and chef have now been replaced by a cook with such a limited menu, that the only option for a non-fish lover are chicken or steak. Even the minimal menu, does not have full availability. Served sadly with a helping of non- negotiable, non-identifiable vegetables (maybe boiled aubergines and courgettes with a tin of carrots and peas thrown in is my best guess). Cocktails in the evening are not an option - the previous menu and skills discarded. Ingredients to make holiday treats, no longer even available. Everything was sadly no, it hadn’t been reordered. Bar snacks gone and no option to purchase anything. Oddly, the heath makeover of the resort does not extend to offering a choice of healthy eating - instead the same greasy chips were served noon and night with every meal, cheese oozed but fresh salad choices as main or side dishes were unavailable. The only respite was the oft requested ‘punched’ potatoes - less greasy but not to be confused with crushed, sautéed or any other restaurant quality side dishes you may have expected at a 4-star hotel. Staff remain amazing - 5 out of 5 for staff. If we hadn’t had mobility issues in our party, we would only have slept there.

Lovely quiet location, spotlessly clean, good dinner & excellent fresh breakfast with very good coffee (machine ) all the staff were helpful & friendly.
Lovely service all round.
Padel court , 2 lovely pools & nice lunch at the pool bar.
There is a hill to negotiate to the village centre ( didn’t worry us too much as we were on a walking holiday anyway) bus stop just outside entrance & plentiful Ubers/ taxis about.
Great little hotel & happy to recommend.

If you can go out and eat in the town, this hotel is perfect for you. It's quite small, but have a lot of nice options. The Welness area is nice and renovated, at the gym you can make a nice training eventho they could buy a couple more weights. The rooms are nice, ok bed and good blackout curtains. Breakfast is nothing special, but frozen baked croissants with jams are ok as well as yoghurt with nuts and fruits. Restaurant food look bad so I didn't even try it. It's a nice walk to the beach and have quite big parking. Indian across the street is nice as well. One of the best hotels in the area i belive.
