Amazing
Posted on Jul 20, 2024
5-star hotel next to the Portimao Circuit, perfect for its use
Free covered parking, free full spa, spacious and clean rooms. Outdoor pool. Pool and beach towel service included.
Normal buffet breakfast, although maximum friendliness, we ordered 2 espresso coffees, not from the breakfast machine, and they put them in without problems.
It is far from Portimao, but with good road communication
You can see the circuit from the rooms

Bedroom was comfy and it was very peaceful and the food was very amazing and one of the servants called alcinda (she should be the manager)was very nice but the manager was so rude but on the last 3 days of our stay we had a buffet and was very good and on the desk called rahim was very good and helpful but for us we like hotels near a city so we can catch a bus and go anywhere i would say this the greatest hotel but its for people that like staying in peace and like racing but overall i would say that this hotel should deserve a 4 star because of their kindness accept from the dining manager named antonio and their cleanliness was very good

Arrived here for a track event and checked ahead of time that the booking was booked for an extra night the day before which was confirmed, arrived at about 2300hrs to no booking…the girl behind was not interested and just said we are full…tried to get some food from the bar and was just told no so ended up sleeping in the car…very poor service save your money and stay in Portimão a lot better hotel with better customer service

This hotel is an amazing retreat! Surprisingly you can't hear the noise from the racing track just nearby. The staff is very nice and attentive. The location is great if you want to be in a quiet part of the Algarve (30 minutes from Portimão). The breakfast is great. It has variety and the products are fresh and high quality. The hotel has an amazing outdoor swimming pool, unfortunately the it was too windy and we were not able to enjoy it. The Jacuzzi and the indoor swimming pool are great too! The room is as in the pictures, it is big and the decoration is modern. Overall, we recommend this hotel if you want to enjoy a quiet retreat in the Algarve!

Room was ok, camp bed set for child not great. Bath area had no doors, not suitable if sharing with friends, lack of privacy. Patio furniture very uncomfortable, you couldn’t relax. Pool area amazing but not enough sun lounges. Biggest let down was food. Hot breakfast selection inedible, continental better. Lunch/dinner menu limited.

Booked 11night with my family. Very disappointed, checked in and found dirty room. Sink full of hair /dust/ sink almost fallen. Hairdryer not working. Receptionist didn't even apologise, they didn't even offer to move room! Food horrible!!! They charged you for everything even a glass of water, the Restaurant and the Buffet area full of flyers/ fruit flyers all over the food. This is not a 5* Hotel! Apart from hairdryer /small fridge (empty) no other facilities in the bedroom. No coffee machine no kettle! Mattress and pillow very uncomfortable too hard. We asked for matters topped, Receptionist didn't even know what is that! Way too far from everything, there is latterly nothing around!

Super disrespectful experience! I had been in the hotel many times but it never happened something like this: When I arrived from late night work shift, I went to the bar from the hotel for a drink with my colleagues which were already there. The waitress really kind said I couldn't that it was closed. After that I greet my colleagues and grab the keys of my room. Suddenly, a 1.65m tall approx. with glasses and beard which who likes to be called manager, comes to me and in a really rude way says: You cannot take a drink and you have to leave! My reaction was: "Excuse me sir, I'm not going to speak out as rudely as you, I remind you I am a costumer. I asked what was the problem and he didn't reduce his voice tone. I left as asked but as a costumer I tried to tell him that this was not a way to treat people and specially not customers. He literally said I don't care, I have experience in this world, he even told me so I was rude with you eh? (In an ironic way) Conclusion: As a rational human being, as I saw that he would never understand, I thought that it was worth to let a review in Trip Advisor!

Stayed here 2 nights and that was enough. In the middle of nowhere and very little to do. Only about 30 sun beds for the whole place. The pool bar server was so miserable and really didn’t want to be there. The buffet was average for €30 each and much better just taking the snack menu. Rooms are nice but don’t make up for all the other shortcomings. Would not return.

Lovely new hotel, very spacious, and great quality of amenities. Feels a little empty and understaffed, probably not back to pre-covid levels. Restaurant a bit pricey and with limited choice. Great breakfast (but pricey)

I came to the hotel for motor racing as it was close to the track. The hotel is fantastic, great amenities, great food and excellent service from the staff. The hotel is modern, sits very proudly on a beautiful location overlooking the hills. I won’t hesitate to come again. Thanks to everyone at the hotel.

I had already been to these apartments but the quality level increased. The hotel facilities, which we can use while staying in the apartments, are very good. Mainly, the hotel swimming pool is wonderful! Furthermore, the exterior of the apartments, the facade, is the only thing that currently needs improvement, which I think is already being done but little by little so as not to compromise your stay! However, the interior of the apartments had already undergone renovation, so everything was very well looked after and looked new. The apartments have everything we need, as well as lots of space! Overall, it was a stay above expectations! I'll be back for sure!

We stayed at the apartments for the first time and honestly we don't expect to return. It is far from everything and cleaning is not daily, unlike other places where we have spent our holidays. They don't even go to the rooms to change towels. There are few dishes in the kitchen. I was very disappointed, although the space itself and the apartment itself is very spacious and super quiet.

Excellent hotel in a great location. The hotel is next to the Algarbe circuit (it can be seen from the room), in an unbeatable environment of nature and tranquility. If you add to this a spectacular pool and a small but complete Spa, the experience is unbeatable. The rooms are very comfortable and spacious, as well as having beautiful views and everything you need for your stay. The service is attentive and friendly as well as helpful. The entire hotel is decorated with a racing theme and that makes it unique and a visual treat for those of us who are gasoline lovers. Without a doubt a hotel to visit and to rest in addition to trying the very good and surprising gastronomy of the place.
