Vila Gale Tavira Reviews

A few things let this place down. Room is a good size with fridge, balcony and bath, but also broken fittings and plastic mattress protectors that rustle. You have to book the spa (can usually do that for immediate use tho!) and women have to buy a swim cap for the pool (none of this is written down or explained anywhere, despite reception saying they did when I suggested they put this info in the room). Inside pool, 'jazzui' and 'turkish bath' (steam room) are included for guests. Breakfast had plenty of choice but only the fresh orange juice stood out - very average ingredients all round. Much cheaper to stay in Monte Gordo for the same facilities.

Lovely Hotel, very clean, breakfast was excellent, the bedrooms are quite spacious, pool view rooms are the best to book, not far to walk to the main tourist area, plenty of restaurants, not much in the way of nightlife.

I didn’t like the room , it had bad smell inside , Breakfast was very limited as in 3 stars hotel , also there was no tooth past in a room without request , same as no tea station without request . Steam sauna was terrible , it is fake turkish sauna with plastic seats and plastic walls , hard to call it turkish sauna . So big disappointment, I was in villa gale in Lisbon and Lagos and it was real turkish bath or real Sauna . This hotel can be 3 stars , but not 4 stars . Jacuzzis worked very week , and air conditioning in room also was working not good .
