I liked the swimming pools, particularly the indoor one. The bedroom was a good size. It is very old fashioned and quite strnge to get down to the beach.

Location only. For the price we paid we could expect something better. It is not only the location what matters. 4 stars in this case looks strange.

Without doubt, the view from our room. Overlooking beautiful unspoilt beach Breakfast was the worst we have ever had, and had for 6 days! At the least they could provide fresh orange juice and a bit of variation. Staff were very unhelpful and not a smile between them. Hotel itself was very tastfully decorated. Did not like the fact that both swimming pools were unattended at all times.

We go to this hotel to relax. Every room has a balcony and the bar has a veranda so you can sit out and read and be undisturbed. The car park and restaurant were the only clues that the hotel was full - the hotel doesn't feel full and you can be as anti social as you like. Staff are friendly and speak excellent English - though we were the only English people staying. This is the first time we have stayed here when the hotel has been full. The restaurant introduced a buffet and the food was not as good. When the hotel is less busy the food and service are much better in the restaurant.

The panoramic sea view from the hotel is fantastic - the large window in our room meant we could see the sea and beach at all times and then from the balcony we could see even more of it ! the hotel is close to the town so there were no problems finding restaurants. signage - could be better - there were small signs in one direction only so if you came from another way (which we did on arrival) we had no idea how to find the hotel and since the town is a warren of very small streets it was quite difficult to get to it when you don't know your way around.

The location at the beach and the big indoor swimming pool. Also, the view from the restaurant is just splendid. Furniture is somewhat dated, although comfortable.

The location is perfect on the very beach. Not far from Lisboa, in small suburb which is called Sisimbra. There are a lot of bars, small restaurants near the Hotel, where you can taste sea food. The Hotel has its own available security parking which is free of charge that’s good. Rooms are clean, well equipped, with its own balconies. The territory is indoor and well-groomed. Restaurant and bar both with panoramic view, tasty food. Road which leads to the Hotel is quiet narrow, dysphotic and pot-holed but everything change when you are getting to the Hotel:) Reception stuff is a little bit melancholic.

Old hotel. Nice rooms. Perfect view from the windows. Excellent swimming pool (Indore). Romantic bar above the beach. Bottom-line; go there for the view, beach, and swimming pool. The headwaiter at dinner could be much nicer, and took the tip that was supposed to go to a very nice pregnant waiter who worked very hard. Dinner was very expensive but with good quality compare to the food you can eat in Portugal. The dishes were very small, so we had to full our stomach with desserts. Breakfast was with poor quality compare to what you can get even in ** hotels like Ibis. Safe in the room was out of order.
