Hotel was very good and service exceptional. Covid precautions were well thought out and easy to use. Food selections appeared to be pared back from normal spec and Asian/Grill restaurants not operating. Pool bar also closed which was understandable but a disappointment. Overall they were trying their best in difficult times.

Ei olisi paremmin voinut mennä

Hinta / laatusuhde kohdallaan. Koko perhe viihtyi hyvin. Hotellin henkilökunta ystävällistä ja kysymyksiin saatiin vastauksia sitä mukaa kun niitä tuli. Siisteys hotellissa ja huoneessa oli ihan loistavaa! Olimme matkalla ns ei sesonkiaikana joten auton vuokraus oli hyvä idea että pääsi katsomaan maata enemmänkin. Oli siis hiljaista mikä sopi meille. Ilmat hyvät joskaan ei kuumat tähän aikaan vuodesta. Suosittelen!

Hyvä vaihtoehto kaukolomalle!

Ilmastointi ei toiminut, onneksi yöt olivat viileitä. Huonot nettiyhteydet. Mausteisen ruoan ystävänä olisi toivonut niitä enemmän, muuten ruokatarjonnasta löytyi kyllä jokaiselle jotakin.

Très bonne chaîne d'hôtel

J'ai été agréablement surprise par l'hôtel. La chambre était parfaite, le personnel également. Côté cuisine c'était très bien beaucoup de choix que ce soit petit-déjeuner déjeuner ou dîner. On était à 10min de la plage à pied. Il y a un peu plus de km pour atteindre le centre d'albufeira.
