We had a lovely large room overlooking the resorts' tree bounded square, charming in its simplicity and very quiet. The pool and gardens were lovely, with plenty of sunbeds available. Pool towels were readily available at the hotel reception. The staff on reception and restaurant were pleasant but did not make any effort to enhance our experience. No tourist information and little no local knowledge. We did not dine at the hotel restaurant, but did have our breakfast every day. The food served at breakfast was varied, well presented and plentiful. However, we felt the breakfast service was understaffed and consequently they were under such pressure to deliver breakfast that the experience was spoiled for the hotel customers. On one day only one person was available to both restock the breakfast and clear/reset tables, the tables did not get cleared!! ##### Stephen Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness #### Never revisit a hotel you loved! We visited this hotel a few years ago and sadly it has lost a lot of its ‘feel’. Then, there was a very traditional and beautiful bar, which is now modern and could be in any location/country. Reception is now quite isolated from guests so you don’t enjoy any interaction with staff as you come and go. In general the hotel room was clean and comfortable. The food in the restaurant was good and not overly expensive but overall it’s just missing that something extra to make you want to go back - apart from the location in the beautiful Monchique! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hanadi May 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very lovely place , will definitely return . ##### Hanadi Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Zahid Sep 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very beautiful hotel in beautiful Mountain area. Service was awesome. Staff very friendly. Elevator was out of order, but staff helped with luggage. In room phone was not working, had to walk down to reception to request help with luggage. I needed an iron. Had to walk down to get it. On our 1 week cross- Portugal trip we learnt that amenities like toothbrush/ tooth paste , body lotion, iron in room are not of standard amenities in the hotels. Breakfast was included, though hotel.com mentioned that we would be charged. Enjoyed our breakfast. Huge variety. However, coffee is provided only via a machine which lets you choose what kind of coffee( espresso, cappuccino, black/ latte) but taste was awful. It’s better to have tea. All in all we still enjoyed our stay. ##### Zahid Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Peter Oct 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful location and great staff We were on a house hunting trip - Beautiful location, gorgeous hotel, fantastic staff.

Not a good place for children. ##### Avril Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter Oct 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Comfortable room. Quiet place Quite extensive breakfast. Can’t comment on the dinner, as we had it elsewhere. ##### Peter Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kevin Feb 16, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The bathroom had black mold. Bathtub/shower was dangerous. ##### Kevin Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ian Jul 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good holiday Reception was adequate. Lift was out of order. Fridge in room was broken but housekeeping sorted a new one for us. Telephone in room didn't work. Shower screen had been removed so having a shower soaked the floor. Overall, the room was good with much needed a/c. Breakfasts were the highlight - excellent fresh fruit, scrambled eggs, toast and pastries, coffee and fruit juice. Didn't eat at the restaurant as it seemed too quiet and a bit over-priced. The "village" is delightful with a couple of shops, a bar, a huge outside seating area and a pathway up to the water spring. The swimming pool and surrounding area was OK but it was dominated by guests from the spa who were constantly chatting loudly on their mobiles and taking hundreds of selfies. Parking was easy - we parked (free) every day just outside the hotel. A great place to stay for a week so long as you have a car. No good for people who have mobility issues. ##### Ian Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Daniel Jul 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Hotel, Monchique Pros: - Very Good air Conditioning - Very beautiful view - Not very busy pool - very Clean - Friendly Staff Cons: - The Food was hit or miss - Often Missing stuff on the Menu - Website info was out of date - Bath was leaky - Charging for the water which is exactly the same from the taps ##### Daniel Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane Nov 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel offered an incredible price for all the amenities offered! The thermal waters & hiking in the area were outstanding! Breakfast was unfailingly delicious, including full set of pastries (with infamous pastel do note), eggs, bacon, freshly squeezed OJ & yummy coffee. Highly recommended by a world traveller! ##### Diane Stayed 1 night in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stefan Oct 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Monchique experience Place is nice and relaxed . Missing more stuff to provide massages at spa and also some machines to buy water or snacks after closing hours . Otherwise all perfect and def finely come back ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E7E9F7A0A09F6CDBB1D1811EBBD0AB7C56B2E7DA1697372696308.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BB6B9CF8C246445EDE7AEF2EFFA183B1730BFA3A1697372695385.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/85CE9B819E88274A4E90B60B342A3420D5098BA31697372697340.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Stefan Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert May 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Helpful and accommodating. Only flaw was the mini fridge did not work. It was not such a big deal and we did not report it ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Gary Oct 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service It was OK, everything is stuck in the 70’s. The buffet dinner and breakfast were great, and we had a jazz pianist over dinner which was awesome. We walked down to the thermal pools €20pp extra, and they looked very uninviting, so we swam in the outdoor pool. I would not recommend and wouldn’t go again ##### Gary Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lagos Avenida Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Lagos-Avenida-Hotel.h19333855.Hotel-Information) > > [NAU Salema Beach Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Vila-Do-Bispo-Hotels-Salema-Beach-Village.h15175162.Hotel-Information) > > [Velamar Boutique Hotel - Adults Friendly](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Velamar-Boutique-Hotel.h2928512.Hotel-Information) > > [PortoBay Falésia](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-PortoBay-Falesia.h1787641.Hotel-Information) > > [VidaMar Resort Hotel Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-VidaMar-Resort-Hotel-Algarve.h5670748.Hotel-Information) > > [Monte Santo Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Monte-Santo-Resort.h2135874.Hotel-Information) > > [São Rafael Holidays](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Sao-Rafael-Villas.h8516728.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Lagos Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Lagos.h2543952.Hotel-Information) > > [Marina Club Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Marina-Club-Suite-Hotel.h1489839.Hotel-Information) > > [PortoBay Blue Ocean](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-PortoBay-Blue-Ocean.h14861176.Hotel-Information) > > [Jupiter Algarve Hotel - Beach & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Jupiter-Algarve-Hotel.h1133428.Hotel-Information) > > [Quinta Pedra dos Bicos](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Quinta-Pedra-Dos-Bicos.h1200216.Hotel-Information) > > [The Navigator - Solaqua](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Luna-Solaqua.h4461872.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Marina Portimao Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Marina-Portimao.h976931.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Apartamento Brisa Sol](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Hotel-Apartamento-Brisa-Sol.h2335413.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Alvor Algarve - All Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Alvor-Algarve-Resort.h33811605.Hotel-Information) > > [Martinhal Sagres Beach Family Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sagres-Hotels-Martinhal-Sagres-Beach-Family-Resort.h3091253.Hotel-Information) > > [Dom Pedro Lagos](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Dom-Pedro-Lagos.h1382394.Hotel-Information) > > [EPIC SANA Algarve Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-EPIC-SANA-Algarve-Hotel.h5995034.Hotel-Information) > > [Muthu Clube Praia da Oura](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Muthu-Clube-Praia-Da-Oura.h1182280.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Algarve Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Hotel-Algarve-Casino.h6468.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Atlântico Algarve by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Kimpton-Atlantico-Algarve.h3036868.Hotel-Information) > > [W Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-W-Algarve.h73757170.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Cerro Alagoa Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Cerro-Alagoa-Hotel.h891218.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Lagos](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Tivoli-Lagos.h876691.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Petra](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Vila-Petra.h1100476.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Carvoeiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Tivoli-Carvoeiro.h891221.Hotel-Information) > > [AP Oriental Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-AP-Oriental-Beach.h912470.Hotel-Information) > > [Cascade Wellness Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Cascade-Wellness-Resort.h4018224.Hotel-Information)
