Great place, nice pool, big rooms and at walking distance from the beach. however the rooms are old, the space is not well used, not enough power sockets, storage etc... Not well fit with modern travelers. The hotel is being completely remodeled so I guess next year it'll be much better

Ideal location for golf in very pleasant area.
We’ve stayed here 3 times now, but regret to say not again. The location is ideal for golfers but accommodation in need of upgrade/refurb. Overall it’s clean & generally well kept. The staff are very courteous & helpful, the rooms are spacious & have adequately equipped kitchens. Since previous visits the accommodation seems to be catering more for families & for us there were too many noisy infants/kids. Plenty of room for parking, good WiFi & some very good restaurants in the area.

Overbooked
Hotel was over booked so didn't have a room on arrival so sent us to their sister hotel which is claimed to be 5star. However, our reason for choosing Formosa park was to enjoy an Apartment, whereas the Dona Filipa was room and breakfast, so we had no self catering availability, and all drinks/food was greatly more expensive, so cost much more to stay than our original plan.

Lovely hotel close to the beach
We arrived very late but had a wonderful welcome and had been upgraded to a two bedroom apartment which was enormous, two double bedrooms, two large bathrooms , a huge lounge diner and fitted kitchen. The apartment was spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished. The kitchen was well equipped (no kettle or oven) but we managed well without them. The beds were so comfortable (firm) and the bed linen was top quality. Breakfast was very good and had a wonderful selection to suit all tastes. The nearby beach is only a five minute walk and was practically deserted while we were there , however we were charged 22 euros for the sunbeds just for an afternoon so did not use them again (they are not connected to the hotel). I had read in previous reviews that the hotel is quite remote so booked a hire car and you really do need one as there are no shops close by. I had also read that the hotel is widely used by groups of golfers which it is but that was not a problem. The only disappointment was the apartment we were given only overlooked the back car park and the sun did not shine onto the balcony at any time of the day.

Lovely hotel, great location
We have just returned from a lovely stay at the hotel. The location is really great being very close to the beach and not too far from the shops. We did hire a car so we could go to some of our favourite locations and there were always plenty of spaces. We were given a room very near to the swimming pool which was very convenient for the children. The rooms are very clean although slightly dated but the kitchen was well equipped. There were always plenty of free sunbeds and parasols throughout the day which takes away a lot of stress and means you can totally relax. The buffet breakfast was very good offering lots of choice. We ate in the restaurant a couple of times which is very good value for money and the service and food was excellent. We were very lucky that we arrived early and our room was ready which meant we got to maximise the time we were there and our holiday got off to a great staff. I thoroughly recommend this hotel and I'm sure we will be returning. All in all a wonderful stay.

Another enjoyable stay at Formosa Park
We perhaps are a little biased, but we've been going to Formosa Park for quite a few years and it ticks all of our boxes! The location is excellent for the beach, but you do need a car to get to the local restaurants, bars etc I think it is worth highlighting the nearby beaches, which are quite honestly amazing, especially first thing in the morning when you will be accompanied by a few other walkers and runners and the sounds of the sea! The pool area is excellent, especially for young families, although our boys are a lot older and they really enjoy it also. We always use a family room and these are always clean and comfortable and have enough room for five people. My final comments are reserved for the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff at Formosa Park. I cannot emphasise enough this last point; it makes your holiday so much more pleasant to deal with staff who consistently are looking after you and are quick to sort out any small problems/concerns that always crop up on holiday. Well done guys: brilliant, as usual!

A Room with a View
The staff are without exception hospitable, professional and friendly which made our short stay pleasant and lovely. We were told we would not be disappointed with the view from our poolside accommodation and this was absolutely true stunning and incomparable. The whole experience utterly amazing.

Nice, but not quite 4 star.
Having booked our holiday we noticed that the hotel was being offered on a golf holiday website, and frankly this hotel is ideal for groups of golfers on short breaks. Although the hotel is "very nice" I would not recommend it for a family or "couples" holiday as we were surrounded by groups of noisy Jack Nicklaus wannabes at mealtimes and late evening. Apartments are well appointed with most, if not all required equipment, good furnishings and plenty of storage space. The view over the pool from our balcony was pleasing although building orientation did not allow sun to penetrate the balcony area at any time during the day. Balcony just wide enough to accommodate chairs and table only. Would not have been happy, however, if I had been allocated a ground or first floor room within yards of the car park! Good points; nice pool and surroundings and plenty of pool beds; good breakfast although cramped dining area when golfers gathered together, nice outdoor dining space; helpful, knowledgable staff throughout hotel. Downside; the quality of the beds, OK if one had ingested enough liquid anaesthetic at night but not for my elderly back resulting in 5 days broken, painful, sleep. Some nice restaurants in the locality and beach bars/restaurants are all very good but only accessible with a car. Good spa but no other distractions or entertainment. Overall an adequate short break holiday with nothing overtly detrimental, but would not return unless it was a for a golfing break.

Huge family room kept very clean and all staff very helpful. Breakfast excellent and buffet continuously refreshed. Can get a good lunch or dinner on site but no supermarket which is 3km at the top of the road so definitely get a car. Hotel slightly hard to find when we arrived in the dark but will likely be back.
