Some of the staff were very pleasant and friendly. There was a courtesy bus when I stayed as the hotel was situated a bit away from Alvor and Praia da Rocha. We did walk to Alvor and it took us a while. Ordered sardines in the restaurant, and was presented with tinned sardines, which was a let down really Electrics... More

The staff were very friendly and very helpfull. Room was very clean and had everything you would need for self catering. Enjoyed the entertainment put on every night.

I stayed at the Estrela do Vau the last week in October 2011 with my wife and young son, and to be honest I was very disapointed with the hotel. Let me start with the positives, the staff are really friendly and the location was good if you rented a car, situated between Praia da Rocha and Alvor. I found... More

Just a couple of points, Yes the prices in the onsite supermarket are seriously excessive but the hotel mini bus will drop you at the Continente supermarket and pick you up again for 2 euro pp return. This bus also runs to Alvor and Praia... More
