Excellent quality furnishings and the towels were lush. The Spa is also good, I had one of the best sports massages ever. The gym equipment is a bit tired though but functional.

The location is fantastic, offering spectacular ocean views. However, there’s some construction happening at and around the property. Breakfast was included and delicious. For dinner, we had a wonderful meal at Monte do Mar Carvoeiro, one of our favorite meals of the trip.
