Highgate Independent Cabo de Santa Maria Island hotels

"Very clean environment. The staffs are nice"

"This was our third stay & we will likely return so that’s a good recommendation I think! The rooms are thoughtfully designed, most have balconies where one can sun bathe or picnic or read a book. The hotel is in the centre of Olhao & the front desk staff are always very helpful. The bar & small swimming pool on the top floor are good spaces & offer wonderful views of the town. "

"Very nice spacious hotel, staff friendly and attentive, breakfast excellent"

"Staff amazing, pool amazing, food amazing..."

"Amazing holiday with our toddler "

"Professional friendly staff. Welcoming feel. Nice pool and everything spotlessly clean. Great location, short walk from island ferry. Beautiful well maintained grounds. Comfortable beds and pleasant room and balcony. Good wifi. Good bathroom but noisy plumbing emitates high pitched whistle. We are only travelling with carry on cabin bags and storage is limited. No bed side drawers. Wardrobe also has 3 drawers (the only drawers) and a fridge, making it a “half wardrobe” so only hanging space for tops/shirts. No hanging space for dresses and hanging rail is fixed too high unless you are tall. No USB charger points. No kettle. Charge for room safe petty. "

"Really good hotel with nice facilities. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful! Good location for access to new town, and easy bus ride/bolt to old town. Get a few more sunbeds and it'll be perfect! Can get a bit busy over a weekend. "

"Visited Four Seasons Vilamoura with my partner over the last week or so but this was actually my 10th time visiting the hotel (though my partner's first!) Four Seasons is an absolutely stunning hotel and, as the title suggests, is a true home away from home without being a cliché. The staff are all so polite and professional from check-in to check-out and everything in between and their English is impeccable. Breakfast buffet has a good selection of hot and cold options, tea, coffee, juices and all the condiments you could want. The pool bar too is great for food and snacks during the day with the option to pay as you go or add it to the room tab to be paid on check-out. We didn't eat evening meals at the hotel and I haven't tended to over the years, no fault of the hotel just prefer to have a change of scenery for the evening and head to the marina which is a 20 minute stroll away or even shorter taxi ride, or even the local Old Village which has a small selection of bars and restaurants. Four Seasons is one of the safest and cleanest hotels I have stayed in, staff are always on hand and rooms are tidied/cleaned every day, there is barrier entry to the hotel requiring a fob you get on your room keys. The rooms are the biggest in any hotel I have stayed at - whether the studios or one-bed apartments (I've not stayed the 2 or 3 beds). They are well equipped with everything you could need (ran out of characters!)"

"This hotel is absolutely spectacular in every way. Welcoming to solo travelers, couples of any kind, and families. Rooms are clean, staff is exceedingly friendly, food is amazing, and the resort itself is lovely. "
