The grounds of the hotel, pool area and communal areas were all very clean. Apartment was large and quiet. Well equipped with dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, microwave etc. Well situated for both the new and old town. Large supermarket nearby and lovely bakery.

Hotel Apartamento Forte do Vale - This is not a 5*

Pros: Very little!
Cons: Hotel is not a 5* maximum 3*. Rooms, Food, Pool area all need updating.
Location: Lovely restaurant opposite called Tres. Beach lovely.
Arrived at hoel at 1pm only to find out that we was unable to check into our room until 5pm? Had to leave our luggage in luggage room. Went for lunch, very poor! Went to pool area, no spare beds and the ones that were left were broken. Pool had lots of broken tiles and sharp tiles were just lying on the side of the pool where people had obviously put their feet on. Drinks around the pool area below standard - in fact, we had one drink and that was it! Spent the rest of our holiday at the beach and paid for drinks/meals at restaurants outside of the hotel. What should have been a reasonably affordable holiday tunred out to be very expensive. Also, our room had broken fixtures, door handles broken air conditioning in need of a service!

One week getaway

The hotel is impressive on arrival. I arrived mid April. It was not too busy, the staff were very helpful and the indoor spa facilities were very nice. I will return.

Excellent 5 day break

This hotel is clean and very impressive looking inside and out, rooms are well appointed and generous in size.we had room 213 which overlooks the pool and has the sun in the early evening. It's great for couples and families and well located for both the old town and the strip, a walk of around 30mins to both if you fancy or just use the free hotel bus if you don't. The staff were great and really friendly. We used yellowfish transfers and again don't have any complaints, professional service and can recommend. We will definitely return for another short break

Schönes Apartmenthotel

Für unseren Kurzurlaub war es ideal.. Schön großes modernes Apartment Küche war gut ausgestattet Matratzen leider etwas durch gewesen und die zwei einzelt an einander gestellten Betten, waren etwas nervig Es war sehr sauber und das Personal freundlich. Innerhalb von 5 - 10 min ist man zu Fuß am schönen Strand und 10 -15 min in der Altstadt. Der Pool war sehr angenehm tempariert und es man findet immer eine Liege
