Nice stay
Overall it is a very nice hotel, beautifully located in front of the beach. The breakfast was nice and so was the relatively spacious room. However the double bed was small and very uncomfortable. Having said that, I wouldn't rule out staying there again

We were supposed to stay for 3 nights, but we left early because of the hallway noise and the air conditioner that kept us up for 2 nights with a loud cracking noise every 15 minutes. The staff were nice and the room was clean, but the hotel was very dumpy and outdated. Broken elevator. One of us had to sit on the bed for the other to cross room. Old bathroom. Parking was in a dirt field nearby. The door lock seemed flimsy. For that price, we expected more.

Not so much the fault of the hotel, but outside guests attending the public restaurant were way too loud, as well as a handful of guests staying in the rooms. Was told it would be onsite free parking, which it was, but finding a space was almost impossible as restaurant guests would also use same space. Had to ask for cleaners to clean room, room very substandard, coffee rings on furniture, bathroom had drain smell and coffee machine way too small, needed several cups in order to satisfy, just room felt way out of date and neglected. Justifiable concerns raised with staff who did nothing, not even an apology (even if it was meaningless, at least something would be nice) Could be me, but for the price of €159pn was expecting way more, simply cannot recommend.

Decent hotel, super location, excellent dining
This was just an overnighter but worked well. The area is beautiful and perfectly placed, if travelling, as we were, between Lisbon and the Algarve. The hotel is clean and comfortable, and worthy of its star rating, and the location is great, but what really sells it, is the restaurant. They do an all-you-can-eat buffet for around 12€, winter rate. The selection was amazing and the quality was excellent. We would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Didn’t get what I paid for. Not a 4star hotel
Hotels.com said it was a 4 star hotel. Definitely not the case. The staff even told us it must have been a mistake on the homepage. Room was very could and did not nearly live up to our expectation. The staff however was extremely friendly! Great great staff! They made the stay durable and the reason I did not complaint.

Tiny rooms.
Interesting place. Large restaurant and beautiful pool but the room we had was dark and very small. You are paying for location and not the room because it was accross the street from a busy beach. There are no waves at this beach because it's on a river that is very close to the ocean. The reception area is only open at certain times of the day.

This is a difficult location to get to. The Garmin navigator wanted us to go down the wrong way on one way streets. The street in front of the hotel was barricaded but no one was sure why and no one observed the no entry signs. There is no elevator in the hotel just a very long circular ramp up to the floor of the rooms. The dinner at the hotel is a buffet but difficult to understand the menu as there are options you can order from the table and the wait staff could not easily explain. The location and view was great and the town center not far away is fun to visit.

Room picture doesn't represent reality
Room is very basic. Pictures show the ocean view room with a balcony view. However there are only 2 of these rooms right at the end. The test of the ocean view rooms have high concrete balcony fronts so you have to stand up on the balcony to see the view. You can't see the view from inside the room. Rooms are dark.

AMAZING STAFF AND GREAT VIEWS
Having stayed here I am a little surprised by the ambivalent reviews. I had a very nice experience here. Everyone involved with the hotel was very friendly and kind. The rooms were clean and nice. The hotel had the best location and views of any hotel. The buffet was like buffets everywhere except that they included hot stone cooked meat. In season there is also a steak house. Really a very good choice!

Fantastic hotel, scenery, and food. Friendly and polite staff who are all very approachable. The only real problem is the very late check in at 4PM. Considering how much we paid for the room I think this is far to late. Our room wasn´t actually available until gone 5PM, really unsatisfactory.

Lovely hotel with beautiful sea view.
There was an initial mix up with our booking which was handled very well by the staff. Ricardo went out of his way to ensure that the problem was sorted out and our inconvenience was kept to a minimum. Goncalo,Paula and Margarita were extremely helpful and friendly too. I had a wonderful Thai massage, enjoyed a swim in their lovely pool and the breakfast was a simple buffet but very nice. The room was well appointed and had a lovely sea view. Milfontes itself is a really lovely place - tranquil, laid back, beautiful beaches, good selection of cafes and restaurants for this relatively small village and the service and friendliness across the board was first rate.

Let the sound of the ocean lull you to sleep
Great option to listen to the waves crash as you doze off. Centrally located. We enjoyed dinner at the end of the road, down by the tide pool. Great value for what we paid in October for view of the water.

Wonderful place, right on the beach, where you can walk forever. Go canoeing and lots of other activities. Most of all, and unexpected, the kitchen. Try the carbonara, piri piri, and a coffee + at the fireplace.

Lovely boutique hotel w/stunning views.
We booked for one night through hotels.com and thought we were getting a pool view but happily were given a sea view at no charge - probably due to off season timing. Lovely hotel, amazing views from room balcony. Big, comfy beds and nice bathroom as well. It would be nice if they didn't "nickel and dime" you for every little thing though as it is a 4-star. (5 euros for a game of pool, 5 euros for fridge use but does come w water/beer). Also you can hear doors slam. Other than that, highly recommend.
