  : Lovely location at the ocean.Laid back staff and good view.
  : The equipment in the bathroom has aged a bit but working fine in total. Sadly trashcans where unemptied but rest of the room clean and good!

Disappointing
Traveller Type: Traveling as Couple
  : Employees/staff had a great energy to them. There is onsite parking. The working area was quiet and everyone there was respectful of each other. For the price we paid (700 for 3 nights), we had higher expectations.
  : Experience: the location is difficult to find because there are no obvious signs and it was not advertised that its connected to and also managed by a youth hostel. We were woken up twice by blasting music at 2am. No soap, lotion or toiletries are provided as you would expect with a usual hotel stay (except for one soap that really dries out your skin after a day in the sun). Room layout: There is no overhead shower, you must hold it above your head and the shower has a small divider, so water can go everywhere if you are not careful. There are not many wall outlets, only 2 which are already occupied. If you want to sleep with your partner, beds can only be pushed together in a corner, either by the porch door or against the wardrobe since there is a side table built into the wall in the middle of the room.Room cleaning: we put dirty towels on the floor and the maids just hung them back up, the fridge was not restocked, we had ants and no food was opened in the room, we smashed the ants and the next day they were not vacuumed up as we expected, and the beds were not made. This was not at all a luxury experience, which we were not expecting in the first place but for the price, we certainly expected none of these issues to exist. Our next visit was to Sagres and we found much better price&experiences, and overall everything was more accessible with the same great vibe. Overall, this hotel and the whole area felt like a price gauge.

Very Good

  : Location was excellent for the rota Vincentina. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was very nice. We had a lovely room with a sea view.
  : We requested an early check in and even though the hotel was very quiet it was not possible.
