The hotel is located in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre. The coffee is very bad, unforgiving in Portugal and in a establishment of this level.
Location beautiful, very distant in the green but far from various services. The nearest supermarket is 15 min of car.

Adorei a estadia. É a segunda vez que vou. Uma foi no inverno e agora no verão. Aproveitei bem mais agora pois pude utilizar a piscina exterior.
Spa ótimo
Pequeno almoço ótimo e com opções saudáveis
The hotel is a 5* hotel quality. From comfort, food, cleaning and service. This is especially for the children of the reception and service in the pool. Super good water and the comfort that is located in the hotel is to be grateful.
Extensive work being carried out meant noise throughout the hotel.
Every time we needed reception we had to wait for staff to return.
On the plus side, the restaurant staff were excellent.
The hotel environment is very beautiful and worth a visit. It is the first choice for vacation and recommended by friends who travel by car. There is a lake and its own garden next to it. It is very nice to stay there after taking a hot spring bath.
Logo na chegada, fomos recebidos por uma equipe extremamente simpática e acolhedora. A hospitalidade dos funcionários foi um dos pontos altos da estadia. Desde o check-in até o check-out, o atendimento foi sempre cordial e prestativo, o que fez com que nos sentíssemos bem-vindos desde o primeiro momento. Esse cuidado com o hóspede é algo que faz uma diferença significativa na experiência geral e contribui para que o hotel ganhe pontos em termos de serviço.
Quanto às instalações, as primeiras impressões foram boas, mas ao explorar mais profundamente, algumas expectativas não foram totalmente atendidas. A área da piscina, por exemplo, era visualmente agradável, mas menor do que esperávamos. As fotos promocionais do hotel, infelizmente, não refletiam com precisão o tamanho real da piscina. Embora o espaço seja bem cuidado e confortável, ele pode ficar um pouco apertado em horários de maior movimento, especialmente se o hotel estiver cheio. A piscina interior, no entanto, foi uma surpresa agradável. Apesar de também ser de tamanho modesto, o ambiente era relaxante e bem decorado, proporcionando uma boa alternativa para dias de tempo instável ou simplesmente para quem prefere uma experiência mais tranquila.
Os quartos seguiram a mesma linha: confortáveis, mas menores do que aparentavam nas fotos. Apesar disso, a cama merece destaque positivo. O colchão era firme, mas confortável, e garantiu boas noites de sono durante a estadia. A limpeza dos quartos também estava impecável, algo que considero essencial em qualquer hotel. Contudo, senti que a decoração dos quartos poderia ser um pouco mais moderna ou acolhedora, algo que refletisse melhor o espírito acolhedor que a equipe do hotel transmite.
O pequeno-almoço, servido todas as manhãs, foi uma experiência agradável, mas com algumas limitações. Embora os alimentos oferecidos fossem frescos e saborosos, a variedade deixou um pouco a desejar. Havia opções básicas, como pães, frutas e alguns itens quentes, mas uma maior diversidade teria sido bem-vinda. Para estadias curtas, isso não é um grande problema, mas em uma estadia mais prolongada, a falta de opções pode se tornar repetitiva.
A localização do hotel é um dos seus pontos mais fortes. Situado em uma zona tranquila, mas de fácil acesso aos principais pontos turísticos da região, o Hotel Vista Mar oferece a combinação perfeita de sossego e conveniência. Além disso, há várias opções de restaurantes e lojas nas proximidades, o que torna a experiência ainda mais agradável para quem gosta de explorar a área sem se afastar muito do hotel.
Já conheço a muitos anos. Mas estão em remodelação e ficou moderno e mais confortável.

Amazing
GGuest UserWe stayed here for our wedding night, and while parts of the property are well thought out, the overall experience didn’t meet expectations for the price and rating.
Positives first: the hotel is beautiful and tastefully designed. The spa is a highlight—well kept and run by a warm, professional attendant. The saltwater pool is nicely maintained and a thoughtful touch.
However, service overall lacked consistency and polish. A number of small missteps throughout our stay accumulated into an experience that didn’t meet 5-star standards.
At the pool—during a heatwave—we couldn't get service for nearly 2 hours. No one was staffing the bar, though it was stocked and locked with a tick chain—odd, especially since there’s an honesty bar inside. I tried calling reception, bar, room service—no one picked up. It felt like I was filling in for missing staff. Eventually someone came and we could finally order drinks.
At breakfast, I had a frustrating exchange. I asked for sliced bread or a knife to slice the rolls, and the server replied defensively, saying I should slice the bread at my table and return to toast it—but I only had a butter knife…
Breakfast overall didn’t meet expectations. Ingredients were good, but offerings were limited. One morning, there were no eggs at all on the buffet. Hot items were available on request (for sustainability), but with just one staff member, service was slow and inaccurate. Waiting 15 min for coffee or wrong egg orders isn’t aligned with luxury standards. By contrast, breakfast at Solar de Vilar Seco—where we stayed just before—was luxurious and abundant, with premium cheeses, international options, and stunning variety. Chef Gilbert deserves praise.
Our room was fine by 5-star basics but felt small and underwhelming for the price and the setting (a former royal manor). Again comparing with Solar de Vilar Seco: rooms there were bigger, airier, and restored with original 18th-century details, creating a far more luxurious feel.
There were also some odd quirks. Guests have to ring a bell and explain themselves multiple times—even to re-enter from the garden or spa. I get the intent is security, but the execution felt intrusive and didn’t match the relaxed vibe expected in a place like this.
The service tone, while not rude, felt more guarded than warm. Staff rarely smiled, and basic interactions—from front desk to breakfast to housekeeping—lacked the ease and attentiveness that define luxury hospitality. Service should anticipate needs, not react to them—and here it often felt reactive and flat.
Finally, a personal note: we mentioned this was our wedding night on our booking, a detail many hotels mark with a small gesture. I’ve had handwritten notes, a treat, a spa perk, even upgrades—all of which make a guest feel seen. In this case, nothing. I mentioned it again at check-in—it was brushed off. This isn’t about freebies; it’s about feeling that the hotel values your special moment. That was completely missing.
GGrace GraceThe hotel is beautiful, located in their own vineyard. You can also participate in their own wine tour and wine tasting. Breakfast and dinner in the restaurant are of a high standard. Breakfast is included in the price and dinner is not expensive. Our group of 6 ordered the menu menu with wine pairing, and we were almost full. Two of us lived in a large wine barrel, which was fun but a bit small (especially after seeing other people ’s rooms contrasted), and there was a short walk to get back to the hotel ’s building, so if It is not recommended for children or elderly people.
AAndreiaThe views from the hotel are incredible. It is located in a quiet area, with great views but is far from everything.
Cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. Sheets were dirty with hair.
Breakfast also. For a 4-star hotel there should have been more variety and fresh bread, because the bread didn't seem to be fresh. They should replace the food, since there were no longer any fruits and other things.
The price is excessive at the pool bar.
Otherwise, everything was impeccable. Very beautiful hotel
