"The room is spacious and has lovely views. Unfortunately; it was not as clean as we had expected. The resort is lovely but tired and in need of maintenance and touch ups. I would definitely rate it as four stars, not five. The staff are lovely."

"This is such a lovely villa in a quiet, beautiful part of Portugal. If you're looking for sleek and modern this won't be for you but if you're looking for rustic charm then you've come to the right place. The villa is quirky and spotlessly clean with a beautiful deep pool and endless fruit-filled gardens. The villa has everything you need and Eulalila was so very helpful. Both coasts are within easy reach by car and there are beautiful walks nearby. We would definitely come back."

"Finding the reception was a challenge as Google maps brought us to the Spa. Check in was simple and easy with very pleasant staff. We had a lovely stay and the termal spa was delightful, again with helpful and pleasant staff. The grounds of the resort are lovely with a lot of old broadleaf trees. The grounds are in need of a complete clean up and Maintenance. It's a pity because the walk up to the Fonte dos Amores is so lovely and peaceful. Breakfast is Fab with great choice for everyone."
