Mirachoro Portimao

10/10 Excellent

"Très bien"

Hotel Algarve Casino

8/10 Good

"The pool was beautiful; so refreshing. It was lovely not to have to rush to get a shaded sunbed for our granddaughter - there were always plenty of beds and umbrellas available around the pool. Unfortunately, to get from the reception area to our rooms we had to negotiate spiral staircase made of stone. Having to transport a pushchair and carry a baby up and down these stairs was very dangerous and unreasonable. We were very surprised that there was no lift available. We had the same issue when we went to the pool or beach - another spiral staircase and no lift. The quality of food was good and the prices were similar to those in the resort."

Hotel Alcaide

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The rooms got cleaned every day. Breakfast was a good variety and even Pastel de Nata. The place was very clean. There is a bus stop outside the hotel. We really enjoyed our stay."

Rochavau Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel with a boutique vibe. The staff were so helpful and accommodating, and a special mention to the wonderful gentleman that served at the bar. Very nice breakfast and a very good location"
