Far from Grand or luxurious,more like holiday camp
This is an old, 70's built holiday club. I would say it is a time-share that is used as a hotel to fill in the days. It was mainly Portuguese families that come for their summer holidays. It is very run down. Our room was old, with cracked tiles and mold in the bathroom, old and worn out furniture, an air conditioner that was leaking into the room. They did fix the AC. We were out to the beach most of the time and didn't worry about the run down condition of the room. But THIS IS NOT A HOTEL. Only got cleaning every other day. Sheets changed once a week. You have to "rent" beach towels at 10 euros each with 5 euro deposit. Even though on hotels.com website there mentions many amenities, there is NO FUNCTIONING RESTAURANT, NO BAR, NO SPA, NO HEALTH CLUB, NO ROOM SERVICE, etc. The pros: location, big pool, view to beach and ocean, kitchen available (since no restaurant on site). But don't come with high expectations, as you will be very disappointed like we were. Since we pre-paid, we didn't think about trying to move. We just spent most of the time out of the hotel. But this place needs a complete overhall and it needs to be reclassed as apartments. BTW I don't think many of these shortcomings can be blamed on COVID as the facilities appear to be in disrepair for a long time.
