Vale d'Oliveiras Quinta Resort & Spa ★★★★★

"Nos alojamos una noche a mediados de agosto, reservando con una semana de antelación aproximadamente. El hotel estaba completamente lleno y parece que nos hicieron un ascenso de categoría a la suite más alta. Desafortunadamente, nadie mencionó el ascenso en recepción, así que solo lo descubrimos al entrar en la habitación. Nuestra habitación era una enorme suite familiar con dos dormitorios, dos baños, una sala de estar, una cocina, juegos de mesa, películas y un altavoz Bluetooth. Fue excelente, espaciosa, cómoda y el aire acondicionado funcionaba perfectamente. Basándome en la habitación en la que nos alojamos, lo recomendaría sin dudarlo. El desayuno fue muy bueno y más o menos de estilo inglés, con vino espumoso, una gran variedad de embutidos, fruta y verduras. El bar de la piscina también fue un punto destacado, con comida sabrosa y cócteles a precios razonables. El único inconveniente real es la zona de la piscina cuando el hotel está completamente lleno. Simplemente no hay suficientes tumbonas a la sombra. Dado que las toallas se entregan con tarjeta, los huéspedes tienden a reservar las tumbonas y luego desaparecen durante una o dos horas para comer o ir a otro sitio, dejándolas inaccesibles para las personas que solo quieren relajarse junto a la piscina durante 30-40 minutos. No estoy seguro de que el sistema de tarjetas para toallas aporte mucho valor y, en mi opinión, causa más inconvenientes que otra cosa. En general, un excelente hotel de cinco estrellas. Está un poco anticuado en algunas zonas, pero considerando que está en el extremo inferior del rango de precios de los hoteles de cinco estrellas en comparación con otros hoteles de la zona, creo que es perfectamente aceptable. Volvería a alojarme con gusto."

Pestana Gramacho Residences - Aparthotel & Golf ★★★★

"Una experiencia nefasta. Nos dieron una habitación con sólo 2 camas cuando éramos 5 personas y fueron incapaces de solucionarlo. La habitación y las camas repletas de insectos y de humedades. Ahorraros visitar este hotel."

Colina da Lapa & Villas ★★★

"Buena ubicación. Alojamiento espacioso y bien equipado. Caían gotas de agua del techo del dormitorio principal al suelo. No mostraron ningún interés en solucionar el problema."

Pestana Valley ★★★★

"A fantastic holiday home with great comfort and a beautiful pool. The park is green and spacious furnished."

Quinta Tapada Do Gramacho ★★★

"I have travelled since I was a kid all over the world, but I believe this is the best accommodation I’ve ever stayed at all things considered. Me and my wife have stayed there two years in a row now. I would recommend it to everyone except for noise groups of people since it is a very soothing and relaxing place."

Pestana Carvoeiro Golfe - Al ★★★★

"Significant Disappointment at Pestana Golf Resort Carvoeiro (Booking reference: 743278) We booked our trip over a year in advance through Golf Breaks as a group of 12 women, with clear and specific requirements: two villas located next to each other, each sleeping six guests, and twin room configurations. Unfortunately, Pestana Golf Resort Carvoeiro failed to meet these expectations on multiple levels. Instead of the requested arrangement, our group was placed on opposite sides of the golf course, and the villas did not include the twin rooms we had booked. Several members of our party had to share double beds, not everyone was comfortable with this option and the only alternative offered was a cot bed, which was wholly inappropriate given the cost of the trip and the notice provided at the time of booking. The accommodation itself was also below standard. Villa 199 (a V3 villa) was very run down, with miscellaneous items shoved into cupboards, giving the impression of poor maintenance and disorganisation. Although the villa accommodates six people, it was supplied with only four sunbeds. We were assured additional sunbeds would be delivered, but they never arrived. The second half of our group was “upgraded” to a V4 villa, reportedly due to the resort being fully booked — raising concerns about overbooking, particularly given our early reservation. While the V4 villa was an improvement, it still presented issues, including ants inside one of the sofas and a smashed patio door. The significant distance between the two villas left our group feeling disconnected, which detracted from the overall experience. Our golf day at Pinta de Vale was similarly problematic. Our tee time was delayed due to the resort’s error in arranging transfers to the course, and by the time we finished, the scheduled transfers had already ceased at 4pm. The initial suggestion from staff was that we should order an Uber for 12 people with 10 sets of golf clubs, which was entirely impractical. Only after waiting for over an hour and requesting to speak with a manager was a transfer finally arranged. It is important to acknowledge the positive aspects of our stay. Gramacho Golf Course was excellent, the clubhouse food was of a high standard, and the bar staff were friendly, engaging, and contributed positively to the atmosphere. These elements were appreciated, but they were not enough to offset the broader issues we encountered. Overall, the experience fell far short of expectations due to poor organisation, inadequate accommodation standards, and a lack of effective customer service. Despite a few highlights, I cannot recommend Pestana Golf Resort Carvoeiro based on this stay."
