Ilha da Culatra Cheap Vacations

A beautifully situated and well appointed boutique hotel graced with courteous, efficient, multilingual staff. The pool and decking is framed with magnificent Mediterranean pines and rosemary. Gym is well equipped and the breakfast buffet abundant. Bedlinen is the finest, softest most silken cotton and the pillows provide a sweet slumber. Clientele in July was a mix of Portuguese ( a good sign when you stay in a country that its own people choose it) and some English, Irish and Italians. Guests were mostly well behaved.

Stayed here in August with my husband and 6 year old for 12 nights. The rooms are modern, clean and beds very comfortable. The pool was the highlight, it's huge, with 2 smaller kids pools. Plenty of sun loungers and nice fresh towels every day - so no need to bring any. The breakfast was fantastic! We paid for the buffet one evening which was very expensive and I wasn't impressed with the food at all. The Italian restaurant was nice but overpriced. The hotel is located next to the beach which is great but we discovered all of the sun loungers had reserved signs on them so we couldn't stay long with no shade. There really isn't much around the hotel at all, we ended up paying quite a bit to go into albuferia in the evenings. Overall we loved the hotel itself but wouldn't go back due to the location and very overpriced food and drinks.

This Agro tourism property definitely worth experiencing. If you enjoy peace and quiet in a lovely setting within a massive orange grove then you should stay and enjoy this unique holiday location. Staff was amazing, breakfast was all you could ask fo

This is a beautiful hotel in a great location. On arrival Delphine at reception was very warm,friendly and helpful. He greeted us warmly each day. The other reception staff were also wonderfully kind and helpful. The room was sparkling clean. The cleaners work particularly hard to maintain the cleanliness of the rooms daily. Janeth from the dining hall greeted us with a warm smile every morning that we went for breakfast. There is a great breakfast selection but will be slightly limited for those who are vegan. The pool isn’t huge but didn’t feel small either. Even with multiple families, there was enough space for everyone to have fun and play. I would say, they could do with having a few more sun loungers though.

This property is heavenly, a real oasis from the hustle and bustle of busy towns. The service is very attentive, the breakfast is out of this world. They served so much food that there was no room left on the table! We particularly enjoyed the fresh pressed OJ every morning. This place is peaceful, small and gorgeous!

Breathtaking views, great service. Beautiful facilities!

Fantastic resort. Very modern with great facilities. Particularly enjoyed the complementary bikes for getting around and riding out to the beach.

Staff amazing excellent breakfast very comfortable

We stayed at Palmares Signature apartments a week with our 2 boys. The property is beautiful, modern, unique concept, great furniture, partial sea views from the terrace, fully stocked kitchen ( cuttlery, glasses, cups, pots and pans although we have not eaten in the apartment). The two rooms are connected thru a short outdoor hallway which offers privacy between the master/living room and the second room. The restaurant views are stunning. Cleaning staff were wonderful, always on time and did a great job. You need a car as Lagos is 12 min away. Unfortunately some things didn’t go smoothly hence the rating. The A/C in the main living area hasn’t worked. The room temp hovered around 25 until it fully died, leaking on the floor. Staff have offered to move us to a new room ( lower floor though) that had the same broken A/C. As the A/C was still working in the bedrooms we decided to not move.They brought a noisy portable A/C for living room with towels spread on the floor to contain the leak. The water was lukewarm until the last day when it was raised to a comfortable temperature. The breakfast was good quality, decent assortment but every day the same. After 7 days it got repetitive. The beds were not as comfortable as we were expecting from a resort of such caliber. There is construction at the property although they try to contain it. The windows are great at protecting the units from the construction noise. All in all was not the experience we were hoping for.

This resort was much more catered to families than we anticipated. We found it quite loud most of the time. There was as a large soccer (football) convention staying here for the first half of our stay. Very few adult friendly quiet areas at all. The spa area was the only place and there is no service of any kind for the adult pool area. In fact the whole spa area was shut down for a private event one of the afternoons we hoped to use it.
