Wonderful hotel, would definitely be 4 star if they offered food. Staff were all very accommodating and the roof top pool and bar is amazing. It doesn't get too crowded as it's only for the use of guests. Rooms were a good size with a very comfortable bed. Highly recommend.

Great place in Olhao. Excellent value for money. Rooms basic but more that adequate. Generous breakfast buffet. Highlight was the rooftop pool and bar. You can use facilities on day of check out and there are showers that you can access which is a bonus Really happy we stayed here rather than Faro
