The hotel has spacious and well-equipped rooms that could benefit from some tasteful remodeling. The service, while helpful and friendly, seemed a bit unpredictable at times. The location offers relaxing views, although some areas may look closed down. Dining was exceptional, with top-notch service and food. Overall, a mixed experience with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was delightful, with modern and clean rooms and a nice private patio. The spacious room had a small balcony area that we enjoyed. The well-appointed room with a lovely terrace and garden view made our stay even more relaxing. However, the service was a bit disappointing in some aspects. The location provided a quiet retreat away from the city rush, and the dining experience was enjoyable. The facilities were well-maintained, adding to the overall positive stay.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms had amazing views and were located in a unique part of the complex with beautiful scenery, they lacked atmosphere and felt more like a canteen. The service was nice and friendly, though there were occasional issues with interns or inadequate staff. The location was outstanding with stunning views, especially at sunset, and the dining experience had its highlights with special coffee options available, but it also had its shortcomings. The facilities, however, were well-maintained and offered a pleasant stay overall.

The rooms are in the 'Grand Designs' part of the complex and all have amazing views of the coastal plain down to the sea, but they lack atmosphere and feel more like a canteen.

The hotel rooms are a big, dark, ugly no-go with huge tripled bed but offer nice views. The location is close to public transport to Faro and village shops and restaurants, a sun trap & very relaxing with great views, though a long walk from main hotel areas. The dining experience can be improved with more variety despite a good local restaurant nearby. The service is fantastic, from early morning to late evening shifts. The pool is clean but very cold.
