Sao Bartolomeu de Messines hotels from RM196

"Beautiful hotel, extremely helpful staff, wonderful breakfast selection. Lovely pool area. "

"Very baby friendly and the breakfast was outstanding "

"Staff was very attentive. There was a good bit of construction being done around the hotel that took away a bit from the atmosphere, but the room was quite large. The bed was comfortable and the AC worked well. The location was pretty good except for the construction. It's a bit of a walk from the "main drag" on the other side of the marina, but not horrible. Note that this is a more modern hotel and does not give the older Portuguese vibe. Still, it was a good stay. The free parking was right across the street from the hotel entrance. It was never full for us, but we were there a little off season. It could be a concern in the main tourist season. As far as laundry facilities go, there is a private laundromat about a block away that you can use, at 4 euros each for one wash and one dry. The facility was clean, but about a block away. That was a pain, but a life saver on a 2 week vacation."

"Pool side was good . We were there in March/April and the pools were not heated . Staff were great . Louis was fabulous with communication and accommodating us . Cleaning staff as well were great . I would definitely go back . The only part I would like improvement of would be a washer in the apartment. When we rented a car parking was not an issue . Thanks for making our vacation memorable for our first time in this area . "

"Breakfast was great! Staff were fantastic! The views were outstanding! And the hotel was all around amazing. "

"It is a beautiful hotel, well located and I got a gorgeous room overlooking the pools and sea. First hotel I've stayed in where the bed was comfortable, the room was quiet despite the number of guests. The staff were feiendly and the buffet breakfast was consistently good. It is away from the crowds of main Albufeira and yet it is easy to travel around as a base. I even took a coach trip to Seville for the day! It is a beautiful property inside and outside and probably the best hotel in the area. You won't regret it. "

"Great location, very friendly staff"

"Beautiful property, great staff, multiple dining options, great gym"

"Lovely superior room overlooking the beach in the Praia hotel (note that there are 2 different buildings, so the cheaper rooms are not on in the beachside building). Fell asleep listening to the waves each night. Be aware that the bathroom ‘wall’ is a half-frosted glass pane (though the toilet is separated). Not an issue if you’re close to the person you’re sharing the room with! Breakfast was good but not great. Worth including at the discounted rate but definitely not worth the €22 on the day! Overall, the rooms are great value for money, and we would stay here again, but only in the superior rooms in the ‘Praia’ hotel. "
