"Now this is a vacation! We were a couple looking to relax and enjoy Portugal. A friend highly recommended this property. Property is beautiful, the staff couldn’t have been nicer! The food was excellent, but don’t forget to make reservations at restaurants within the complex. The views, private beach, & pools are spectacular. They had shuttles to another area of beaches that they owned, which were beautiful and the restaurants there were excellent. Our room was spacious and perfect with balcony. The buffet breakfast had so many options & included- there is a breakfast buffet for adults in a different location than in the main resort- the main building is for ALL: children, and everyone which is quite busy. The one for the adults has a beautiful view and very relaxing- Depends what your needs are. The adult pool was over the top!!! Overall, can’t wait to go back, The resort is 10 ++star wish I had more stars to add⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
