Restaurant and bar offering was also incredible. ##### Cece Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dilim 3 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Guest services was top notch. ##### Dilim Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Miriam 21 Jul 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities The property is lovely. Rooms were amazing and the food was superb. The staff were so nice and sought to be helpful. However the service was lacking. She. They get that together it will be an incredible resort. ##### Miriam Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary 28 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed a week at the hotel. The staff were very friendly, and the room and other facilities and breakfast buffet were brilliant. What could improve a longer stay (like ours) is more food options for the evening (more casual dining options too), clearer roles for staff serving in the restaurant (some confusion there), and a heated outside spa pool. Other than that - really great! ##### Gary Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jose 19 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unbelievably nice hotel It’s the third time we came to this hotel. It’s located in the Costa Vicentina of Portugal, a strip of land with the most incredibly beautiful, unspoiled beaches. The hotel is a 5\* facility, new (2y old) with great rooms and a tranquility that is unsurpassing. We will be back ##### Jose Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### amanda 11 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely place This place is amazing, visited both on high and low season. Beautiful place surrounded by nature, we had amazing star sky from the balcony and could hear the sea. It was a nice and cozy stay even in the winter. The breakfast is amazing. Spa is great even if the Turkish sauna was broken both days and the indoors pool was cold, so there’s bit room for improvement. But the other saunas and cold bath were great. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C0B4E28912A36E4C7132C5FA19B5F74F76E966D01702292062038.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1F6D7AF9A22B561FE7960EA4AA3B280E8AF367A01702292063125.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1074EE7034799D10A0E898154A8B736681A8161F1702292061688.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### amanda Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Howard 16 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Modern sleek hotel in a nature park with great walking and views of the Atlantic in the far distance. Very private and great place to relax. We did not use spa or gym. A few concerns: Road in is rough in places. Lots of small things needed work - doors not sliding closed properly, hot water not there, random alarms. Biggest disappointment was the so-called gourmet dining room with over-priced skimpy meals. Breakfast were excellent though. ##### Howard Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nathalie 24 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautifully designed and elegant hotel. Very peaceful location which must be just as beautiful in the winter. Yoga was ok, not great. Other activity advertised (guided biking tour) was not available during my stay. Restaurant service was very disappointing (definitely not 5 star). Restaurant staff needs training. ##### Nathalie Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thai Ping 29 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful resort set away in large grounds This is a new hotel set in a calm, out of the way natural area in hundreds of hectares of land. It’s beautiful and the rooms are large and well appointed. There’s a stunning infinity pool with underwater seats and a far away view of the ocean. This could be a wonderful SPA hotel where to unwind, rest, hike etc. Indeed we were told there’s a plan to create a dedicated, adults only yoga/spa area, as the current one is pretty, but too small. The hotel will definitely benefit by having a children playground and or adult-only areas, to make it more serene for those who do not travel with children and seek to enjoy the natural, quiet beauty of the area. There’s the lost stunning coastline with up he, dramatic cliffs and rock formations about 20 mins drive away, not too be missed. ##### Thai Ping Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jose 9 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A very cozy hotel in the quasi-virgin coast We are a customer returning to the hotel which is a good indication that we really like it. The place is magic, breeding calmness wherever you are. Its proximity to multiple virtually virgin beaches is perfect to hop on and off and chill in gold sand beaches with a constant ocean breeze and cool waves. This year we had the novelty of a new restaurant which we have visited twice. Once the food was great, but the second time we have noticed some inconsistency in too many details. Service was not at the right level and the prep of the food was just ok (something for mgmt to put a close eye on. This experience simply didn’t match the overall great hotel this is. ##### Jose Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bart 5 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stunning property located in a 220 hectare nature park on the beautiful Vincentine Coast of the Algarve. You have miles of hiking and mountainabike trails just steps from your room. The grounds are truly beautiful, staff is amazing and the food is very good, as are the recommendations for restaurants or activities in the area. They really aim to show you the best of local scenery and produce of the Algarve. Do keep in mind the hotel is very secluded, getting there or to any of the stunning beaches or restaurants in the area often involves a 15-25 minute drive on dirt roads full of potholes, so be prepared for an adventure! We loved our stay at Praia do Canal, where else could you find such an enormous garden in your backyard to play. A big thank you to Bruno, Melisa and the rest of the amazing staff for making us feel at home. We hope to come back. ##### Bart Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Stirling 4 Oct 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service Stunning location in a National Park for this interestingly designed hotel, rooms are comfortable and well furnished. All the negatives are about the staff, the front desk staff were excellent but housekeeping was terrible (less than 15 minutes to service a room in a 5 star hotel) with crumbs and drink rings left untouched, the outside retrace left dirty the list could just go on. The pool area is nice but again let down by the staff who hang around at the poolside restaurant, if you go and ask for a menu they give you one but you then have to go back to order as they stay inside, sunbeds are left untouched when guests leave and other guests have to remove towels etc and get new themselves. At breakfast it is difficult to get staffs attention and we food the hot food orders often arrived cold. There is clearly a staff issue at this hotel, poorly trained poorly led and unhappy, again with the exception of the front desk team all the staff looked glum, didn’t interact with guests and rarely smiled, this could easily be a 5 star hotel but until the staff problems are sorted it won’t be. ##### Stirling Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### George 1 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Clean room, great staff but above all the magnificent surroundings of nature. The smell of Eucalyptus, rosemary and more herbs makes you realise the beauty of nature!!!

It’s not 100% kid friendly (steps and distance to rooms, no kids area) but it still makes for a great family stay. ##### Ana Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Uwe 29 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice for hiking, biking, relaxing. ##### Uwe Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Xiqiao 17 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Remarkable, especially service and interior design. ##### Xiqiao Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Milda 11 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Everything was great! The only thing I’d wish for is that breakfast would start a bit earlier than 8am, but that’s not a biggie.
