This is a lovely contemporary hotel within easy reach of Faro airporton the edge of Olhao.It overlooks the Ria Formosa nature reserve andmarina so if you can get a room with a sea view I'd recommend it.Thestaff are well trained and were courteous throughout our stay. TheBuffet breakfast was comprehensive and the pool area well maintainedand clean with plenty of sunbeds and a poolside bar serving goodfood.We didn't eat at the hotel in the evening as there are plenty ofrestaurants along the main road running along the seafront.My partnerbooked a massage which was also very good.Brilliant for a relaxing minibreak-and even at the end of October sunny and warm.Olhao old town verypretty and worth a look.

We got a really good bargain for one week's half board. Rooms were really comfortable & we were lucky enough to be upgraded to a marina view room. Unusually, half board consisted of vouchers for a la carte (rather than buffet) which was a nice change and food was good quality. Very spacious pool area and as hotel was really quiet, we had area to ourselves on several occasions. I used the spa on one occasion - excellent value, half price treatments each day, I reallly enjoyed this treat. Hotel is in Olhao, which is not a typical tourist destination, which suited us fine and plenty of good value seafood resaturants & snack-bars on the doorstep. Weather was a little chilly so didn't get to islands, which I would have liked to - trips can be organised from hotel reception. Actual surrounds of hotel, i.e. village view rooms may be somewhat disappointing though, so delighted to get upgrade. Overall very happy with stay and very thankful to management/staff for kindness.

The hotel staff is very friendly and helpfull. This really helps to have a great experience in the hotel. The hotel is very new which gives a luxuruos experience. We have stayed in the hotel for 2 weeks and this was a great place to start our trips and come back to a nice room with good facilities. The gym is extensive so for people who want to stay in shape there are good facilities. The treatments in the spa are very good (also from a price/quality perspective). The location (Olhao) is great if you don't want to stay in the real busy/turistic part of the algarve. You are in front of the beautiful Ria Formosa (nature) area If you have a car during your stay your able to reach the furthest points in the algarve (from Olhao) in max 1,5 hrs. Olhao itself has some nice streets to have a coffee or dinner and a shoping center with a large indoor karting track (tip). You have to be willing to travel to discover the nice Algarve areas. overall the price/quality is very good and the friendly
