The location was excellent. The reception staff were very helpful and fluent in Spanish and English which made it much easier to communicate with them. There was parking available too.

The hotel has been very smartly designed. The room design makes sense, top to bottom and is also very nice looking. The facilities are great (indoor swimming pool, sauna, etc.). One caveat though: I was there at a quiet time, so I don't know how the common amenities would fare with more people.

Such a great experience staying in this hotel. The buffet breakfast and dinner were **chef’s kiss. They prepare different cuisine each dinner. Watching the night entertainment while having a cocktail or two were such a fun way of ending a tiring yet memorable day. The staff are so lovely <3 Will definitely be coming back!

I had an excellent stay at the cabana in Pedras d’el Rei. The accommodation was comfortable, well maintained, and ideally located within the complex, making it perfect for a relaxing holiday. Everything was thoughtfully equipped, and the surroundings were peaceful and beautiful. The staff were friendly and helpful, with a good command of both English and Spanish. There is an excellent swimming pool, a small supermarket, and several bars and restaurants which, while not outstanding, are very good and ideal for enjoying a pleasant meal. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would happily return.

Albacora across from Tavira island was such a relaxing spot, the spacious pool area with big warmish pool, then the location with beautiful estuary on your doorstep and quick boat trip over to a stunning wide beach with beach bars and lidos. Very clean and well equipped room, excellent breakfast and friendly helpful staff. We wish we had stayed longer, truly! The town of Tavira is so lovely too. We were sad to go.

I had a night in Faro either side of a trip so not enough to explore too widely but being well located close to the marina and old town was excellent. Had time to fit in one of the shorter boat trips and a Fado traditional musical performance.

Plenty to see and do. Great this time of year warm enough to take a long walk and lovely vistas. If you're energetic there's plenty to do but if you want to be a couch potato you have the option to laze around.

Tavira is delightful.

Tavira is delightful. We liked the little train showing us around. We enjoyed wandering around the town. The castle is worth a visit and a trip to the island & beach by ferry is an absolute must! Lovely little trip and the beaches are super, as are the restaurants and bars on the island. The restaurants and bars were really good in Tavira. We liked the Black Anchor for good pub food. Ai Mae was an exceptionally good fish restaurant, you need to book in advance. O Castello has the best steaks ever, again book ahead. O Tonel is a great restaurant - Mediterranean, European & Portugese type food, book in advance.

the old town is really lovely and not horribly touristy at all. Lots of lively bars and restaurants on the front and nice shops and more places to eat and drink in the old town. There are plenty of ferries and taxis to the nearby islands - we went to Culatra (a little tatty but a certain charm). Great deserted beach, but the food at Culatra Sol beach concession was not great and expensive for what we had.

There is a restaurant close by on the beach which was excellent - La Rosa Branca. A little further away another restaurant on the beach 'La Gaviota" was excellent - you need to book as it gets very busy. It's a 20 minute walk along the promenade just past the Dom Jose Hotel. Sandbanks restaurant was also excellent - you need to get an uber to it. Tourist shops abound but not many nice boutiques . You need to travel 16-20 to get to good shopping for clothes. Great cafe close by for coffee and croissants for breakfast or snacks - you can just go up for snacks and return to beach as you please. it was safe to leave our umbrella and chairs while we took breaks from the beach. On the ground floor of the property chairs and umbrellas had been left behind by holiday makers and are free to use. We only discovered this once we had bought chairs! Check out the ground floor space for items to use while you are there

A beautiful resort, particularly for beach lovers. I was very impressed that the beach is accessible for people with disabilities and mobility issues. I'd recommend eating in Willem for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Their pastel de natas are the best, in my opinion. The Blue Parrott, Vale do Douro and Royal Thai restaurants are also excellent.

Loulé is a lovely town, unspoiled and not touristy, and is very lively on a Saturday with its famous market. My family first went there twenty-three years ago, and have returned periodically ever since. In fact it is such a lovely unspoiled town I wholly recommend you don't go there so it remains that way.

Quinta do Lago is stunning.

Quinta do Lago is stunning. From pavement tiles to leaves on trees, the whole place feels perfectly curated whilst nature lends a hefty hand. There are plenty of scenic walks, with several restaurants and bars within walking distance too. However if you want more from your trip, I would recommend hiring a car. Ubers are aplenty but costs can rack up compared to car hire which is very reasonable as public transport is severely lacking in the area. Plus a car allows you to fully experience the surroundings and perhaps visit places you can’t on foot. QDL is a must visit if travelling to the Algarve.

What a lovely resort. Plenty going on, but very relaxed too and not too busy when we sent at the end of September. Beach is lovely with the added bonus that you need to take a very short boat ride to get there. Enough shops of all kinds and plenty of restaurants catering for all tastes and budgets

The restaurants and cafés are very pleasant. The beach and marina are lovely to walk along and the place is, for the moment, relatively unspoiled by excess development. However, that will change quite soon, I feel.
