We stayed here for 1 week which was just right. The hotel is huge spread down the side of a cliff with 10 floors but 3 lifts. We were on the 9th floor which is level with the reception. When we arrrived we were dealt with quickly. The staff were all polite and spoke good English. The apartment had large... more

A very depressing hotel experience indeed!! It is in a terrible state of disrepair and dirty. We stayed for 2 weeks, bed and breakfast. The breakfast was "buffet" style and the same breakfast was presented to guests every day for the whole two weeks. The apartment itself wasn't terrible although the furniture was basic. It's also on a hilltop and... more

where do I begin.........the hotel is very shabby. Electrics are unsafe. We were promised a sea view and air con - we were given a room with no sea view and no air con. staff not very helpful. We were given an alternative room with air con just in main lounge area and not bedrooms! the fridge broke down and... more

The rooms are dated and not particularly clean. We had ants outside our room early in our stay, I reported this to reception - the girl said she was aware... more

Let me start by saying, if you don't rent a car, staying in this hotel will be a challenge. The village is a long and difficult journey. It is not for the elderly or for people with young children. The building is old and the decor is old as well. It suffers from an distinct lack of ventination. Walking through... more

We went in May so still kind of out of season. There must have only been a handfull of other people staying in the hotel. However, no complaints (apart from the extremley noisey people next to our room). Room was clean and spacious with lovely large balcony. Pool area and gardens get sun all day with stunning views of the... more

This hotel was very cheap as we went totally out season in April, i think there might have been 6 other guests in what is a gigantic hotel. However the hotel staff were very nice especially the friendly barman. So all in all very hard to judge as very quite, but you really really do need a car to explore... more

We have visited Carvoeiro many times before and also stayed at other parts of the Algarve. We stayed at Colina Sol Apartamentos for 3 weeks (room 606). After booking a 2-bed apartment via our travel comapny, we arrived at Colina Sol and we're sent to a 1-bed apartment, but after the mix-up by reception staff it was recified immediately. So... more
