Cabo de Santa Maria Island Fishing Holidays

We had a hassle on check in based on number in our party even though the room could easily accommodate us. The beds were hard and we didn’t get our queen bed. Towels weren’t the cleanest. Pool area was nice. Villa space was great as was the view

Stayed here in August with my husband and 6 year old for 12 nights. The rooms are modern, clean and beds very comfortable. The pool was the highlight, it's huge, with 2 smaller kids pools. Plenty of sun loungers and nice fresh towels every day - so no need to bring any. The breakfast was fantastic! We paid for the buffet one evening which was very expensive and I wasn't impressed with the food at all. The Italian restaurant was nice but overpriced. The hotel is located next to the beach which is great but we discovered all of the sun loungers had reserved signs on them so we couldn't stay long with no shade. There really isn't much around the hotel at all, we ended up paying quite a bit to go into albuferia in the evenings. Overall we loved the hotel itself but wouldn't go back due to the location and very overpriced food and drinks.

The resort was very nice, right on the beach. Pools were nice. The pool chairs were kinda old and worn out. The place was full of 18-20 year old british kids who treated the pool like they were the only ones there. You could tell the other guests were not happy about it too. Food at the resort wasn’t great. We went to the a la cart breakfast which took forever because they had one server and the kitchen was in a separate building. The other restaurants on property were not rated well so we ate elsewhere.

We stayed for 2 nights at the beginning of August and were blown away, we felt as though we were staying in a small boutique hotel. The room was exceptional, clean and extremely well-equipped. The whole property was so thoughtfully decorated with traditional Portuguese touches and it was so lovely to see so many family heirlooms being used, we felt as though we were staying with family rather than hosts. The pool area was never crowded and there were plenty of comfortable sun-loungers with umbrellas for shade. Breakfast was wonderful and all staff were incredibly friendly. We wish this family every success for the future and will be certain to stay again - a true Algarvian gem!

Safe and very family friendly . Some staff will go out of there way to help you.

Unfortunately we found the beds uncomfortable and didnt sleep well.

Staff amazing excellent breakfast very comfortable

One night stay at Pestana Alvor Park. Staff were prompt and polite, and the room more than we needed

The room looks old, old TV but surrounding the hotel is great

We really enjoyed our stay here! The amenities were excellent, and the location made it an easy home base for visiting Faro and Lagos. Vilamoura itself is also a beautiful town to explore—definitely take an Uber or Bolt to the marina, it’s worth it! The beds were super comfortable, and having a mini kitchen was a great bonus. Our only complaint was the shower drainage, but management was quick to respond and had a plumber in to improve it, which we really appreciated. Overall, a great stay and we’d definitely come back again.

Amazing staff. Clean. Vibes.
