9.2/10 Wonderful! (381 reviews)
We really enjoyed our stay at The Aquashow Hotel. My daughter and I stayed there for 6-days. We were in Loulé for the Loulé cup that my daughter was competing in. The hotel is very clean and walking distance to the WAter park. There is a nice indoor and outdoor pool. The staff are very nice and accommodating, and the rooms are spacious. In addition, the breakfast and dinner buffet are delicious. Many great food options. We truly enjoyed our stay.

A beautifully situated and well appointed boutique hotel graced with courteous, efficient, multilingual staff. The pool and decking is framed with magnificent Mediterranean pines and rosemary. Gym is well equipped and the breakfast buffet abundant. Bedlinen is the finest, softest most silken cotton and the pillows provide a sweet slumber. Clientele in July was a mix of Portuguese ( a good sign when you stay in a country that its own people choose it) and some English, Irish and Italians. Guests were mostly well behaved.

"Fantastic hotel. Brilliant breakfast Lovely rooms. I would’ve scored it higher, but the pool area lets it down. Broken sunbeds, very tired area. Like I said the breakfast was brilliant, but we had an evening meal in the restaurant and it was poor! Definitely not worth the €25 per head"
