Independent Island Armona hotels

"Great adult hotel in a beautiful location. Strange bathroom with glass wall into bedroom and thin curtain covering it. Also no tissues and tea/coffee not replaced for 2nd day. Having to pay 10 Euros deposit for beach towel was strange. Bar staff were slow and need training. Tried to serve white port in tumbler with ice and had to wait 10 mins for them to find a bottle of vihno verde. However despite these slight irritations, we would definitely return."

"Shower pressure is fantastic... A/C worked very well with 30+ outside"

"Excellent hotel, worthy of its five-star status. Staff were efficient and friendly. Minor quibbles: the water in the outdoor pool was freezing! The provision of USB charging points in bedrooms would be helpful."

"Breakfast experience is excellent "

"Beautiful room and hotel. Rooftop views are not the best."

"Lovely hotel - we spent 5 nights there as a family of 4 to celebrate my wife’s 50th. Staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. They gave her a personal card and made her a birthday cake and the whole staff inc the management came to our table to wish her well - it was a lovely moment. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the staff work tirelessly to clean and maintain throughout the day. The work ethic is very clear and you get the feeling that everyone who works there cares about what they do and takes pride in it - something you don’t often see at other hotels or at bigger name brands. Our 2 bed apartment was really comfortable and well appointed. We had half board and the food was really excellent and worthy of 4 stars or more. Great selection at breakfast inc made to order omelettes etc. There was a different theme of food every night and as well as the buffet, there was live cooking to order of various fish and meats. Very good value addition to our booking. Our teenage kids were also allowed to order from the a la carte menu up to a very reasonable value as part of half board if they couldn’t see anything they wanted on the buffet. Only slight gripe was the very cold temperature of the outside pools but other than that all the outside spaces were really delightful. Easy walk to a nearby village area with a Spar shop and bars and walking distance to the marina. It’s such a nice place, food amazing and people incredible- we would definitely go back!! "

"Fantastic place and friendly staff"

"Perfect motel to stay before an early morning flight out of Faro. Literally walking distance to check-in, closer than walking the terminal from one end to the other. Very friendly and kind staff. I stayed there twice already, and will keep coming back - it is the best option when transiting through Faro."

"Everything excellent except for the storage space in room "
