Pros: easy to park, comfy room and sofas in common areas, next to diving centre, good views from room. Cons: most disappointing breakfast ever, same thing every day, tasteless eggs and cheese, no vegetables, very limited vegetarian options (don’t stay there if you’re vegan), gym is paid extra as is pool table. I wouldn’t guess this was a 4 star hotel, defo not value for money.

Excellent service, free parking, very good breakfast buffet, thankfully the restaurant was open for dinner. Only discomfort was the hard mattress, which is common in Portugal, but difficult to have a good night's sleep.

This hotel is an odd experience. On a beautiful small island, it is a giant architectural eyesore. We stayed here as there are not a lot of choices. But the hotel is a few km outside of Vila Do Porto, is huge, soulless and not particularly welcoming. It’s like a giant concrete lot where they park all the island visitors. They advertise a fitness center as part of the hotel. It is in the same building but not associated and they charge you €7.50 a visit. It’s tiny and was crowded when I tried to go. Not worth it. The staff at the hotel were nice enough, the included breakfast is nice enough. But if you can find a more authentic place to stay on the island, go there instead.
