Lovely hotel in quaint location. Loved the beach club as well. Note that this is in a very quiet part of the Algarve - it is peaceful but not “hustle bustle.”

Lovely lovely property
Great hotel. Nice cozy feel. Loved the beach house down the street. One of the only hotel out of 5 we stayed in that had face clothes. Linens were fabulous, towels, sheets! Oreo the onsite dog was the very best addition to our stay.
