Top Castelo Hotel Reviews

RR Hotel da Rocha

RR Hotel da Rocha

10/10 Excellent
"This was a beautiful hotel across the street from the main beach. It is right near everything by the Main Street where all the shops and restaurants are. Beds were very comfortable and I am picky. They were firm but not like a rock. Many European beds are rock hard. We had two family suites and we have 3 beds in each room. Very spacious. We also have a cook top dishes, small sink and fridge. It’s everything we needed. Also has a microwave. Free breakfast buffet was wonderful! Something for everybody. We loved that! Major issue is parking. If you rent a car make absolutely sure you reserve parking in advance. We learned the hard way. This is the Malibu of Algarve. Super busy in August. There are only a few spots to reserve."

"What a great find! This hotel has a cool contemporary feel with stylish decor but not over fancy and boring or showy. The staff were always super friendly. The rooms (we had the standard) were spacious with big beds. The breakfast and dinner was amazing, we did half board which was worth it. They give you a voucher if you can’t make dinner but want to eat lunch instead in the pool cafe. My only complaint is having to pay €4.50 for water at dinner! At this nightly price I would expect free filtered water. Otherwise a great stay and would visit another of the PortoBay hotels again for sure"

"The pool was beautiful; so refreshing. It was lovely not to have to rush to get a shaded sunbed for our granddaughter - there were always plenty of beds and umbrellas available around the pool. Unfortunately, to get from the reception area to our rooms we had to negotiate spiral staircase made of stone. Having to transport a pushchair and carry a baby up and down these stairs was very dangerous and unreasonable. We were very surprised that there was no lift available. We had the same issue when we went to the pool or beach - another spiral staircase and no lift. The quality of food was good and the prices were similar to those in the resort."
