Algarve Hotel Guide - Silves Pestana Golf hotels in Algarve, Portugal.

Take a towel if you intend to use the pool! you are not allowed to use the room towels and they do not supply pool towels! Room was clean and adequate, bed comfortable, toiletries good. Breakfast buffet simple but sufficient, cereal, rolls, meats and cheese, fresh fruit etc. Late checkout was not available as hotel full but staff offered to let us use the pool and pool showers offered towels to use in the shower!!! All the staff we had contact with were very friendly and helpful. Would use the hotel again if in the area.

Lovely hotel, very relaxing. Breakfast excellent with plenty of choice. Room good size and bed very comfortable and clean. Overall really enjoyed our time at this hotel.

It was a little dated, nice enough for a budget holiday. Pools were very cold even children's pool was not suitable for a child under 4. Not very good for 'self catering' but okay if you do not plan on using the kitchen. You need a car as it was 10minute DRIVE to the local beach (not the nicest roads to be walking along)

Most of us have expectations about our holiday, our flights to be on time, beautiful weather, a nice place to stay and memories to cherish. This holiday gave us all this plus more, the staff were really accommodating, the room was spacious, with the added bonus of our own terrace. We were recommended to visit by friends and we would highly recommend it to others. A real gem.

Great area, close to sea. Fab pool but cannot comment on any other facilities as they were all shut although this was not mentioned when we booked. Apartment was more than we expected with all facilities including a washing machine which was great. Roof terrace, garden, patio; it has all you need and very clean.

Difficult to find... no road names or signs didn't help. However, after a call to the apartments, the manager came out in his car to find us! Pleasantly surprised by how big the apartment was. Included a utility room with a washing machine and 2nd toilet. Plenty of built in storage in bedrooms. Bathroom had two showers! Towels changed twice a week..but these are only small so you will need to bring beach towels. Kitchen very spacious and had dishwasher and microwave but no kettle.. Pool was a nice size and plenty of sun loungers available. Located in a quiet area, amongst some lovely villas, about half an hour walk to the village.. would be longer on the way back as is uphill! Carvoiero is a lovely place for families and has the best beaches around in our opinion.Plenty of restaurants to choose from and pretty reasonable prices. We hired a car at Faro which was useful... but be careful as we were given a car full of petrol and told to return it empty .. we were charged 85 euros for petrol to refill it. We were in the Algarve for 9 days and still only used 3/4 of a tank of fuel and yet had to pay the fuel charge.. rip off! We went with two children (8 and 9) and they loved Slide and Splash water park and Zoo marine. I enjoyed the Fiesta Sand Sculptures - amazing. Would happily return again!

We had a lovely stay in Sept 2011. Very friendly hospitality from host Oscar. Nothing was too much trouble. Great continental breakfast with freshly squeezed orange juice and fresh warm bread. Quiet setting within walled premises - a nicely renovated former manor house, with additional modern rooms in separate purpose built buildings in the gardens. Lovely clean presentation, comfortable, balconies overlooking gardens, plenty of parking within the grounds and close to local amenities. Easy access from main road and only five minutes drive from main Algarve motorway which runs to Faro to the East & Atlantic Coast to the West, so easy to get to & from airport. Plenty of character. Very happy to recommend

all the family love this hotel, plenty to do, my son is 14 ,perfect for him.

Went for a long weekend birthday treat and couldn't have asked for a better location, surroundings & facilities. The staff were so helpful & could not do enough to make our stay so enjoyable. Will book again next year.
