Final days of our honeymoon.
There was an older manager I believe who was incredibly rude and unprofessional. Wouldn’t let us use the pool while we waited for our room to be ready. Unfortunately tainted our stay. Other than that we loved the charm of the hotel and the beach.

Beach is sandy & beautiful but very windy when we
Very windy. Beautiful beaches. Looked like Nice pool
Very dated. needs an upgrade. But its the only property on the ocean in the area. A bit isolated. Would recommend staying in town as opposed to this location.
Such a quaint hotel, a lovely night to pop out of the city. We had the best time.

Great stay with stunning ocean view
Had a lovely time as a family stay for few days. L
Amazing location and stunning view on the ocean.
Easy access to the beach.
Hotel team was friendly and helpful.
The hotel is very spacious, some area are a bit old but it gives its charm
This place was unique and beautiful. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Pool was amazing and so was the location. A little outdated but I think that’s part of the charm. 10/10 would stay again
Mould in bathroom, facilities are old and not well maintained, amazing view on the beach and staff is friendly and resourceful. Property photos are not representative of what we got. Breakfast. Is mediocre you are better off finding something else to eat, selection is mediocre and average tasting at best.
What an incredible experience!
Built in the 1940s (I believe) on a 17th century fort on a windblown beach in a national park? Yes please! The natural beauty alone is worth staying here. But the use of stone and wood and natural elements was superb.
I saw some reviews complain about the age of the place. Well my room and the whole wing appears quite new. Decor is simple and comfortable and more than spacious enough for Americans. My room (#50) had a huge patio with views of both the dunes and the beach!
Housekeeping works hard here! Keeping the sand out when it blows in the air and folks track it in must be impossible but I walked barefoot in my room with no grit.
The best part was the service. They let me put my luggage in early and after I checked out so I could walk the beach. They even walked me to my room. Very helpful despite language barriers- MINE, my Portugese is non existent. Hands signals and smiles and patience fixed that.
If you need a day or two of quiet after a busy city like Lisbon I highly recommend this local beach off the beaten track
Great location and price. Walk everywhere. Rooms are small but nice.

Amazing beach, and the area is great for hiking, eating, etc. The hotel is a bit funky, especially the pool, but the staff is wonderful. I would go back
It was quiet, relaxing and a nice place to unwind at.

Beautiful location on the beach (stunning views). Hotel is dated, but clean and comfortable. Next to popular surfing spot; which is fun to watch. Parking in front of hotel was crowded, but it clears out when the surfers leave for the day. The pool area is beautiful.
