Check in was great, parking simple, and included breakfast had great options. For a 5 star hotel I had expected a bit more. The coffee was an instant coffee rather than fresh brewed, the facilites were ok but the location and pool were exactly what we wanted so we would stay again.

Friendly staff made our arrival very welcoming. Received an upgrade to a large ocean view room. A spectacular view, spacious room and nice hotel amenities. If spending a whole day by the pool is for you, this is a great hotel to choose.

Very good overall experience. Really did go out of their way to make our group happy which wasn't easy. We did have a leaky room which we would have preferred to have sorted the first time but they moved us the 2nd time and again really treated us well.

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Good: location directly at the beach Poor: Breakfast with awful coffee; bad smell in the bathroom; expensive beach chairs; long waiting time at breakfast before getting seated; the whole hotel is old, not in the best condition and never a 5-Star Hotel.

Gina

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Stay far away from this property. Staff were rude from the moment we walked in. Prepaid for this room and were turned away because we didn’t have our passports but had our license and a Canadian resident card. We tried explaining this to front desk who went to the manager who then told her to say he was busy in Portuguese. Which they did not realize I spoke the language and could understand they were saying. They’re now disputing the credit card company stating we did not show up. When we called Expedia from the lobby they then called the manager who told them he’d call them back later!! Absolutely horrible customer service. We were later told by a guest on the beach that the hotel had actually been over booked so probably why they had no problem sending us away

Very satisfied for our honeymoon
We were at the Pestana for our 7 day honeymoon. And we were very pleasently surprised! At the check in we were told we were upgraded to a room with a seaview, which was so lovely. In our room we found a welcoming gift; a bottle of sparkling wine, macarons and a lovely greeting card wishing us a fantastic stay. We had a beautiful balcony on the 5th floor, and the room was pretty decorated with blue and white colors. Breakfast buffet had an inclusive spread with allergyfriendly options. Food and drinks in the bars/restaurants were quite expensive, and our duvet was troublesome, but service was magnificent and staff were very professional. Also the hotel pool, gardens, and the immediate access to the beach made it a very satisfying stay for us!

Food was beyond excellent. The hotel was beautiful. The room was clean. The hotel staff were very nice and helpful. My only small disappointment was there was no hot tub. There was a cold tub outside of the gym. I am not sure if that was supposed to be a hot tub and it was just broken or not? Would definitely stay here again. The property is beautiful and well kept. Amazing sunsets every single night. Parking was very easy which was refreshing considering parking elsewhere in Portugal has been difficult. I also liked the location. It wasn't difficult to get to other parts of Algarve.
