Quinta do Mar - Country & Sea Village

Bij binnenkomst uiterst vriendelijk personeel. De schoonmakers waren ook erg vriendelijk. Toen wij ons huisje binnen kwamen leken we terug te gaan in de tijd. "Toen was geluk heel gewoon" tijd. Alles donkerbruin. Kraan zat los, in bad douchen met een gordijntje ervoor. De bedden sliepen heerlijk. Airco in de slaapkamer is top. Ontbijt buffet was goed. Jammer dat je bij het grootste zwembad geen drank of ijs kan kopen. Het park is heel mooi aangelegd.

It is a large complex in a natural setting with beautiful lush vegetation... Starting with the receptionist with the long curly hair... what a drama.. the always disinterested and sometimes rude attitude was shocking and ultimately ensured that we did not go to the reception for questions, when she was on duty. We have never experienced this anywhere before.. guests were treated with a particularly bad mood, her facial expression said enough.. not normal.. very unfortunate and absolutely no ornament for the hotel! Receptionist C. gets all the praise.. great professional attitude and always good-humored.. chapeau! The room itself was dark and cold... without a heater it was impossible. We also had very bad weather so that didn't help... the mattress was rock hard which felt very uncomfortable and caused sleepless nights! We could go straight to the physiotherapist at home... The day before we left, new toppers were delivered to the hotel we heard from other guests... but it was too late for us.. The bathroom was cold and without heating... the window opened 1 cm so the steam lingered for a long time... the shower in the bath was nice with enough water pressure. The breakfast was more than enough and there was enough choice... good coffee! There were not enough tables and chairs in the unheated breakfast room and what was there was very uncomfortable...French bistro chairs made of iron...some with an old cushion...there was a run every morning to see who could get a table...if there was no table, then breakfast outside in the cold under the canopy.Nice staff who clear up when they have the time...they work hard but don't have enough people...we often took the dirty breakfast stuff back to a table near the washing-up area, otherwise it would just stay there. In the evening you can get a drink in the room next to the reception...too few comfortable chairs and not really inviting...no music...no cozy atmosphere...nothing...and it's cold there again..You can also bring your own bottle of wine and ask for glasses...bringing your own cheese and chips was no problem either, that's nice! Receptionist C. keeps your not yet empty bottle for the next evening, possibly with your name on it...that's nice. At 23:00 the reception closes, so also the drinks room... When leaving in the early dark morning at 5:30 the room key had to be put in the box at the reception outside. I walked up and down the entire path 3 times in pitch darkness and found no reception... no outside light on the wall... no lamppost... no light inside... pitch dark hidden in the high bushes!! By chance I bumped into a statue or something like that, and yes that was at the reception I remembered... found the box against the wall by touch... bizarre! So yes, there are certainly some points for improvement in that regard... Distances to Praia da Luz and Burgau are not walkable without transport and along a very dangerous road. Taxi tel.nr at the reception

The place is incredible, the reception service was impeccable and fast. The rooms were well-appointed for us to stay. The location is wonderful, you can walk to the center. And take the best walk. Inside, the hotel is another option to stimulate. All beautiful views.
