Im Zimmer und in der Badewanne waren Haare. Sauberkeit daher nicht super.
Haus ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen und hellhörig.
Frühstück ausbaufähig. Gibt jeweils nur ein frisches Brot, das bei Verbrauch durch Toastbrot ersetzt wird. Daher muss man immer früh da sein.

We all loved this hotel. It has lots of character, like going back to the 1930s, charming rooms and beautiful furniture. Everything is good; the stunning views, the breakfast and the wonderful staff. Stand out staff member is Judy, really made our stay extra special. One thing to note, you MUST have a car!

Villa Alto is a lovely old house set high up in the hills above Ponta do Sol. With beautiful views. You will definitely need a hire car.
The Staff are wonderful and work very hard to make you feel welcome. The breakfast is amazing, all freshly made from scratch. Sadly there was no dinner service available during our stay.
Our room (no 9)was small and needed some TLC. The weather during our stay was stormy and the room was cold and damp. The curtains were stained and hanging from the rails. The sash windows need attention/replacement as all three were exposed to the wind and rain.
We would definitely return to Villa Alto and hope for better weather.

It was a beautiful older but full of character villa. Breakfast was top notch. The staff were very friendly and willing to point you in the right direction. Would definitely come back

Our pillows smell like sweat, the bathtub had rust, there were bugs in our room but the front desk staff was fantastic.

Excellent hosts at this magnificent old-school hotel. The views are stunning, and the interior of the hotel is warm and welcoming. GPS directions don’t work so well, so just follow the blue signs up from the center of Ponta do Sol

Set high up on the side of a mountain, you have beautiful views from your room and property. The rooms are older but go with the setting and are very comfortable. The staff is outstanding. Graciela and Brayanni were so helpful and fun to talk to. They both truly made our stay incredible.
There is a daily breakfast, which was outstanding. There is wine, beer, and other spirits that can be purchased on premises during your stay.
The pool was wonderful, but if you don’t like pools, ask for some beach towels and head to one of many beaches.
If you like cats, there are some to great you everyday. They were so sweet and friendly.
