Excellent hotel. Very friendly and efficient staff. Top notch service. The room was beautiful and spacious. Balcony was amazing. Breakfast had lots of variety. Hotel restaurants were also good
The hotel wasn’t really walking distance from anywhere which was a bit of a shame and food at pool could have been better but otherwise great stay.
Best hotel we’ve stayed in Portugal. Amazing service, amenities and view.
Only negative is breakfast area is too small for number of guests so some mornings you have to wait to get a table
Everything about this hotel is exceptional! The service, the comfort, the amenities are incredible, it did not disappoint. The rooms are large, the bed was supper comfortable, even the roll away cot was like a regular bed.The breakfast was incredible, lots of variety and great specialty coffees you can order. I can’t say enough about this hotel, we were sad to leave.
Great breakfast though they did not mention about breakfast items on the menu till the last day.
Nice rooms and comfortable beds but the shelves were dusty.
Large pool but the water was cold. Furthermore, this hotel is not ideal for families. Better for adults and groups than families.
Last but not least, Whatever, Whenever but Never. I had to chase my restaurant bookings daily.
ive been all over the world and I can confirm the hotel and the service is 10/10 special shout out to the concierge team! Thank you and I will now be looking to stay in many other W hotels
Sometimes pictures are deceiving. Not here. This hotel is absolutely stunning. From the lobby, room, pool, the views. The staff was warm, welcoming and super and super helpful. This would be a great wedding, romantic getaway, honeymoon experience. Everything was top-notch.
The hotel itself is beautiful, large spacious rooms, however, over priced in terms of food in terms of quality.
They also charge an additional €125 euros per extra bed per night and take a €100 euros on check in, if your not expecting that cost it will be a surprise on arriving.
The location is great, accessible to some great beaches and staff are as accommodating as they can be. Probably wouldn’t select a Marriott group hotel in the future.
