Aldeia das Acoteias hotels from RM271

"Very clean well positioned hotel, pool area was small and very few sun loungers, the only disadvantage we found"

"Incredible hotel! Super modern and well designed. No direct beach access but there is nearby. Staff very friendly and helpful. The food is good and the staff can help recommend local places to eat. Plenty of space to lie by the pools. Could be a few more loungers at the adult pool. Nice modern gym. Room was beautiful (had the cheapest type) and was always cleaned really well! Only downsides were that the room was not ready at check in time and the coffee is not great (if you care about that). Will definitely be returning."

"The property is expansive, beautiful and well maintained. We were warmly greeted at reception and granted early check in. We were given a tour of the property via a golf cart then deposited at our lovely Elegant Suite. So far so good. One of the primary reasons we booked Vilalara is because of they have a spa. We don't typically book services but we love using the sauna, steamer, and other amenities. We stopped at the spa and were given a brief tour. We were not shown the thalassa features, so I can't tell you what they entail, but we did see the cold plunge tub, a small windowless relaxation room, a small sauna and steamer. This area was not very large or impressive for a spa property and the resort charges 22 Euro per person, per day to use it. No where on their website, or any affiliated sites was this published. We would not have booked this hotel if we had known about the upcharge. Also, their website says they have a jacuzzi but none of the three outdoor pools had a spa. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed the gorgeous beach and pools but a cool day would have been miserable. Other disappointments were inconsistent housekeeping; one night we had no turndown service at all and other nights we had only the delivery of water. We constantly had to ask for coffee pods and/or cream. The gym is lovely and they have high end cardio but need additional free weights, one set of each weight is inadequate. The breakfast staff and food were wonderful, but we will not return."

"Beautiful room and comfortable beds Staff very friendly and helpful We found the room we stayed in was noisy from all the street traffic and on going music"

"Great location in old town. Helpful friendly staff. Room massive and comfortable. Beautiful rooftop pool area."

"The Hotel and Staff were both stunning, everyone from reception to Pool Bar did everything possible to make our short stay extremely enjoyable. Room was spotless, bed very comfortable and a TV with Worldwide coverage (if you cared enough to think of home ), Tea and Coffee making facilities had no milk, this was immediately resolved by staff. Location is excellent, short walk in all directions brings you out at bars and cafes of Olhao."

"My favorite part of this hotel was the view. We were fortunate to have a seaview room which had a balcony that we used nightly to wind down. The hotel allow lots of ways to enjoy the beautiful views - poolside and all restaurants. The room was spacious and clean with a seaview from all angles of the room - lloved it. The staff was most helpful when deciding on tour options and all questions we had. The meals where very good with the breakfast assortment being spectacular! The best I have ever experienced. We had the occasional dinner at the hotel which was lovely ($$$$). We also walked into the village and had wonderful meals there, as well. We treated ourselves to spa treatment with a couples massage. Of course this was heavenly! We enjoyed the location which allowed us to walk to beaches, village, tours and hike along the cliffs. We thought we would use a car more but it was parked the entire time we were there (at no charge). This 5 star hotel lives up to its stars. Would definitely recommend."

"Had an amazing stay at the Westin Salgados - the property was gorgeous, spotless, and perfectly located on one of the best beaches in the Algarve. We were there for the hotel’s 1 year anniversary and got to experience a complimentary yoga class and sound healing experience - it was awesome! Special shout out to Joao, the amazing server/bartender at the lobby bar who made our stay extra special. Highly recommend and would stay here again in a heartbeat. Food was great as well!"

"Travelled with a 3 year old, would 100% return to this same location. The staff were amazing, kids were accepted everywhere (except the indoor heated pool sadly, although understandably cause it's a spa). The kids playground was wonderful with daily activities, engaged and kind care staff during the day. I didn't leave her with them unsupervised by a parent, but apparently you can. Loved the facility, our villa was perfect. Only thing that would make this better would be if the peacocks could be quiet at night, someone should let them know! Haha Wonderful experience, thank you for the amazing stay."
