Cabo de Santa Maria Island Kid friendly Vacations

A live pianist at breakfast is nice to have but this one was very idiosyncratic, meandering vaguely around tunes in a bizarre and eventually tiring and annoying style. The worst outdoor feature is the towels which are old, not very large and extremely poor quality. Sunbed mattresses would be a great asset to improve the comfort as the pvc is taut and not fir for relaxation or dozing. Nightly entertainment is so sadly typical of the local generic singer or couple playing amateurishly and extremely loudly to generic backing tracks, and with poor diction let alone mispronunciation of lyrics, which together emphasise the artistes' mediocrity. This puts off many residents except those who have low musical tastes and high toleration levels. PLEASE don't employ those with backing tracks who can't perform on their own or who insist on far too loud volume which simply makes guests' conversation in the evenings impossible. Evening/bar managers urgently need to take this in hand. Food is excellent and staff helpful. A greater range of pillows other than memory foam would help and the air-conditioning needs finer adjustment. You need a car to get into the town restaurants, which are excellent and good value. Those arriving after 10 pm will get a very inadequate room service meal as well as losing a day's sunshine. Pool water is clean and the beach is great. With a little imagination this hotel could be a 5 star and has the location and staff to make it so. Shaded parking is a plus.

Friendly staff, room were nice but in need of some love. Not a 5 star hotel but solid 4 star. Nice location.

From the moment you arrive, the beauty of the hotel is striking. Walking in feels like stepping into a peaceful sanctuary. Everything about the design, setting and atmosphere immediately creates a sense of serenity. The staff are wonderful and beautifully attired. We stayed in a two-bedroom apartment with its own private pool, and it was simply stunning. The layout and design were exceptional. Both bedrooms were beautifully done, and the bathrooms deserve a special mention; there are two, each with enormous standalone baths and huge enclosed showers. The space, design and attention to detail made the apartment feel incredibly luxurious. We visited Café Central for breakfast and lunch because we liked the peaceful vibe and found the fresh pastries, coffee, and variety of dishes to be wonderful. Sitting there quietly with a coffee was a lovely way to spend an hour of the day, and the gentleman Pedro, who works there, is absolutely charming. Overall, it has felt like a real privilege to stay at the Viceroy. It is a truly special place that combines beautiful design, outstanding service and complete tranquillity. The only problem is that you have to check out, and honestly, you won’t want to. Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this stay so memorable.
