Very nice hotel right on the beach. They have a wonderful pool that overlooks the ocean. A pool bar delivers food and drink to your lounge chair. They have a large buffet breakfast for 10 Euro per person. There are many restraints and shops close by. The only problem is there is only two people to a room so not... More

Armacao de Pera unfortunately has a dog problem with resulting mess all over the walkways, dogs roaming around the town and on the beach and not on a lead are a common sight and rather spoils the town especially after the seafront has been made a virtually traffic free area ,It is a pity that the turismo office does not...

My partner and I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn in Armação de Pêra. We made the mistake of not booking any transfer to the hotel from Faro airport and decided that we would catch the train and then walk from the nearest train station to the hotel. The website says that the closest train station is Alcantarilha, but it... More

it was shut! The main attraction of Armacao de Pera is the beach. When it's not really sensible to spend all day on the beach or by the pool, there's not a lot to do. However, that' not the hotel's problem. On check in, when I arrived at 11:00, I received a warm welcome and was in my room as... More

The staff were very friendly from booking inn to leaving. If you get the chance try and get Room 600, the views are amazing and the room is total luxury. However the first room we were given had a great view as well. The breakfast buffet was brilliant and loads of it. Had agreat time here and will definately be... More

Location is everything at this hotel. The town of Armacao de Pera isn't all that great (mind you we were there at end October so perhaps not a good time). Having been to the Algarve many times, Armacao de Pera didn't really resemble the 'true' Algarve as there were lots of high rise apartment blocks. However the beach is beautiful... More

Yet another trip where I asked about the possibility of an upgrade, which I was fortunate enough to be given at no extra cost! The staff, room, view, food etc., were all good and I would particularly recommend this hotel for over fifties. The vast majority of the guests are senior citizens and this is well catered for with good... More

We have stayed in four 5 and 4 star hotels in the Algarve and this we consider the best. The executive room was modern, well equipped and had an unbeatable view. There was a good choice at breakfast all food we had here was good. Drinks in the bar were fine especially during happy hour. All staff encountered were friendly... More

We stayed for 5 nights from 20th October 2011. Having viewed previous reviews on Trip Advisor, I was a little tentative as I'm a real clean freak and expect good service. I wasn't disappointed. We arrived really late, but the chap on reception was very helpful and efficient. Both rooms were newly decorated in a contemporary style and immaculate (4th... More
