Room was clean and staff were helpful and friendly breakfast was great and they have free parking and rental office
2nd year running we have stayed in this nice hotel for a few days everytime. Hotel is clean, the staff are pleasant, parking is excellent & the pool inviting. This year the breakfast were moved up to the top floor and it made a good start to the day dining up there. Only down side were the pool towels they provided which were small and thin. Provide your own if you can.
Hotels not that big. Perfect really. Had a great time with the family, made it feel relaxed and peaceful. Theres just a few things that need improving, we found spiders and ants in my room. We could never quite figure out the lights. The Pool closed 7pm which I felt was a bit early, especially being in the Summer. They also do BBQ nights on Thursday… when we called it was fully booked. We would have loved to have experienced it, so perhaps encouraging guests to reserve in advance would help or cater for more. Towels for some reason are changed up at reception instead of the pool area which I found inconvenient. Overall, these were only minor issues and didn’t take away from what was a lovely family holiday. We’d happily return.
This family-owned hotel is a real gem. So comfortable and luxurious, and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate. Would highly recommend this lovely place!
Great hotel, great food especially at the pool bar , a bit out in the sticks so not walkable to places but taxis cheap and reliable, lovely helpful staff especially Fanando !
Would definitely stay here again
I have stayed at the Baia Grande several times.
It is a good sized hotel (not too large) its very welcoming, comfortable and clean, breakfast is of good choice and quality. Will continue to stay there in the future.
Very friendly staff. Clean and comfortable.
There is a shuttle bus from the hotel to city centre. The food is great there.
The only thing that I can comment on is that there is no tea nor coffee at the rooms although there is a kettle and there are no supermarkets near the hotel

Lovely hotel friendly staff.
Very crowded at breakfast due to coach party’s
Would stay here again. Great facilities, staff are helpful and friendly. The hotel is within walking distance of the beach and walking along the coastal path can take you to other beaches nearby. We didn’t eat in the restaurant but the pool cafe had a great range of classic dishes such as lasagne and bolognaise. The spa is lovely offering a range of different treatments. We had a great stay!
We felt very safe at this property. The staff were wonderful. Coming from America, we were a little shocked at the lack of quality of the beds. But we understand this is not unusual in Europe.
Hotel was nice and had a great pool. The staff was terrific! . The bathrooms were outdated and dark, and the beds were hard.
Yes the hotel is within walking distance to the beach, but fair warning it’s not close. Especially when you are walking back and it’s uphill and hot.
Very nice & clean. Nothing to complain. But there is no multi plug facilities. So we need travel adapters for our charging facility. And restaurants & shopping centre little away from the hotel but Uber is not expensive. We loved the environment and the service as well as the food.
The beach is far too far, service tends to be unfriendly and amateurish. There are no activities in the area. But if you just want to chill in the hotel by the swimming pool and need a quiet place to rest... it ok.
Overall the property was just what I was looking for and it was perfect. The service at the pool restaurant was unexplainable. Despite going everyday I could never get anyone to wait on me despite plenty of staff. They would bring menus and take other people’s order hole I was just sitting there. Then, I would go to the bar and order but they would never come by to see if I needed anything else. As I stated, the whole experience was unexplainable. Otherwise the property was great and Portugal was beautiful. My trip was prepaid and I was surprised to learn at check-in that a tourist tax had to be paid. I don’t remember this being explained when the reservation was made.
