Hot spring Hotels in Porches

Ah what a lovely beachy chilled out palm tree fringed holiday this place offers! It is just the ultimate European beach holiday if you are looking for decompression and stunning vistas this is for you. I don't think it is especially luxurious as such, it has a comfortable, laid back coastal moorish style, but it suits the style and location of the hotel so well, and together with the most wonderful staff it really delivers a traditional beach holiday in every sense of the word. The activities and sports on offer, the number of restaurants to choose from will meet most people's expectations. The breakfast was just outstanding overlooking the shimmering waters. The care and thought as to how they can deliver for families without taking away the peace and tranquility for adult guests should be used as an example to other hotels of this calibre. They have perfected the blend, and so it offers a multi generational holiday whatever you are looking for. The pool service was outstanding. The relaxation is guaranteed. The tropical gardens are so beautiful - it almost has an unreal feeling about it. We loved it, and we will be back, and next time we will stay for much longer. I don't think the blend of laid back fun with wonderful service like this really exists anymore - it is an art form and quite rare - but here it is still possible! Take your shoes off for a while, breathe in the warm sea air and let them look after you! Very well done to the GM and team

Absolutely stunning experience! We stayed for 3 nights and loved every minute of it. The hotel facilities are superb, beach and views and breathtaking. If you go on a left from the beach there is a wonderful easy hike with spectacular views, approximately 30 mins one way. Lots of even more stunning nature within 15-20 mins drive from the hotel. We will definitely be back! ＜3

A quiet, lovely apartment complex Pleasant greeting at reception, 2€ per person per night tourist tax charged on arrival, ouch but we knew about it beforehand. Room was nicely located overlooking one of he gardens, spotlessly clean, practical airy, we had a one bedroom apt, with 2 adults and 2 older teenagers , only tiny issue is one of the teens is over 6ft and too tall for the pull out bed, but he coped. The pool area was lovely , very quiet . You had your own parasol in the room to use on the balcony or take down to the pool if required, which was a great idea. Pool toilets were little dated , but we just popped back to our apt instead. Nice play area for kids. Cafe/bar/ restaurant We were a little annoyed that the bar restaurant was closed for our stay as this wasn't mentioned in booking and still not out of season, however the cafe was open and food was delicious, as were the cakes and coffees, lacked any atmosphere in evening apart from the one night where there was live music. Just needed a little music sorting really. Location short walk to several beaches ( some accessed from steep cliff steps) absolutely stunning clifftop walks , make sure u visit the little church area and shell trees near beaches its so pretty. You cN either walk towards beach or the intermarche for bars and restaurants, there is plenty, or go into armacao de pera, €3 in uber. Try tasca26 tapas it's amazing and easy walking distance.. Overall (this was a real budget holiday for us) is absolutely worth every penny, traditionally portuguese, friendly, quiet, and in a quiet but beautiful location.

Me my wife and 2 children aged 11 and 12 have just come back from a 4 night break here . First the reception guy couldn’t have been any nicer on first arrival . When I said I’m checking in he said first things first , how was your trip? . Absolutely lovely guy as were all the staff we encountered . Our side view double room was spotless . The beds were comfy as was the kids sofa bed. Onto the food . Overall we all thought the food was really good . A lot of variety and both my kids were going up for 2nd and third plates . The staff again were amazing and very polite . The British people on here complaining about the food must be used to chicken nuggets and other junk food. My youngest is the pickiest eater imaginable and she loved the food . She tried all sorts of food including paella and the different veg on offer and lived most of it . The snack bar does do basic burgers and hot dogs if that’s your thing but we’re in Portugal not the uk so we were more than happy with the food . The only thing I would say would maybe increase vegan options ? My wife can’t have dairy and although there was enough dairy free options she was quite limited in what she could have . Maybe a vegan pizza, or 1 or 2 vegan desserts and some oat milk would have been great. Soya milk is available at breakfast but is the most inferior of milk alternatives so a choice would have been nice . Now the entertainment . Just a big thankyou to all the entertainment/animation team.We enjoyed all the night time entertainment . The Portuguese dance show was great as were the traditional costumes . The tunnel of terror was brilliant ! Halloween is quite a big thing in our house and this was better than any of us expected . There was a delay on us entering but the young French lad was so polite and apologetic and kept telling us they want to get it right and it has to be safe . All 4 of us were absolutely buzzing when we came out of the tunnel . You could see the work and effort that had gone into this. Speaking of work and effort , the final Halloween show. Wow ! Absolutely brilliant . I can’t imagine the effort end work that went into this . The young French girl with blonde who created it was in tears at the end which showed how much it meant . My wife turned to me and said “I knew she’d have had something to do with it “ all the animation team were amazing but this girl was non stop throughout the entertainment , so a special thankyou to her . The entertainment is not aimed at the French . It’s done in 4 languages English, french , Portuguese and Spanish . I think the British people complaining should stick with places like Benidorm . In fact the worst parts of our break was British kids running wild whilst their “parents” were getting to drunk to care . Older French people at the buffet not understanding how to que was also annoying but in no way the fault of the hotel . Thanks again to the hotel and all the staff we encountered ! Ashley ,room 1432

I stayed with my family for 5 days at this Hotel, our experience was excellent, the service was very good, the rooms had plenty of space and the facilities were also new, the kitchen was well equipped and everything was clean. The pool was super cold, we weren't able to enjoy it, even the indoor pool was too cold for our taste. There is a supermarket nearby, the beach nearby was very calm and full of families. The restaurant was also very good and the chef made adaptations for me since I don't eat gluten or lactose. We just missed a play ground for the children. We will be back next year for sure

I’ve just returned from Ukina Terrace,and feel I really must emphasise how isolated this place is. The apartments themselves are roomy and clean and the beds are comfy and lashings of very hot water available, the kitchen is well equipped with lovely stainless steel saucepans, but I’m afraid that can’t make up for the fact you feel rather cut off from everything. The nearest shop is quite a walk up a 30% gradient hill , so you can’t just nip out for any bits of shopping you may need, there is no shop attached to the apartments which seems a bit strange considering they are self catering units. There is a local bus which again is a bit of a walk to get to , in fact everything is a bit of a walk to get to . You don’t get that holiday vibe it’s more like a residential area . There are one or two eating places again a good walk away uphill of course. I am in no way slating the apartments or staff at all , if anything I feel that Jet 2 or whoever you traveled with don’t make it clear enough about the location , you really need to hire a car to go anywhere. I’m so glad I have the Uber app on my phone and it was my saving grace in getting around. We tried the local bus to Alberfuria it drops you at the bus station again in the middle of nowhere and you have to get another bus to the old town so two lots of bus fare and frustration! I found an Uber was as cheap if not cheaper .The surrounding area Porches is very pretty but it’s not enough to sustain you for a weeks holiday , you need to be able to go somewhere and you just can’t. I wished I’d taken more notice of some of the tip advisor views but you know how it is you think it will be ok , but honestly for older less mobile people like myself it really is not the place for you.

We were very pleased with our 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment with full kitchen, lounge/diner, balcony and roof terrace. What's not to like? We also had a beautiful bougainvillea outside. A change of sheets would have been nice, but not really a problem for just a week. The pool area is spacious with plenty of sunbeds and shade under the trees, but no parasols, and the pool is cold. This did not stop my friend doing her daily exercise, but too chilly for me. Unfortunately the back gate to the pool area was locked, so we had to take the longer route and down a steep flight of steps to access the pool. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The negatives of the property are the location (a big problem), and lack of Wifi (an inconvenience) anywhere other than by the pool. The property is advertised as in Armacao de Pera, but is in fact in Alporchinos. The mini market on site was not open, but there is a large supermarket 5 or so minutes up the road and about 7/8 restaurants a bit further on (3 of which are Indian!). The beaches are a good 15/20/25 minutes walk - downhill on the way and therefore uphill on the way back. The main beach at A de P is long, sandy and very busy, but accessible. Of the other 2 coves - Redonda is virtually inaccessible to anyone with walking difficulties and Senhora da Rocha is busy, because boat trips go from there and there is also a restaurant. It is also not very big. We had a boat trip in a traditional Portuguese fishing boat, which was good apart from the dozens of kyakers and a constant stream of small boats also visiting the caves and bays. Apart from these boat trips there doesn't seem much else to do unless you want to hike along the cliffs.
