Having booked online via Expedia following lengthy research into a suitable location for my honeymoon, I decided on the Pinhal Da Marina. When booking via Expedia, I specified that it was for a honeymoon and accepted the caveat that any special requirements may not be necessarily be met. Booking online I assumed, wrongfully, that I was getting a good price,... more

Stayed in the hotel in August 2008. This is our fourth time in five years to Pinhal da Marina. This is also my second review of the place. We stayed in the same 3 bedroomed apartment as we have done for the last three years. The staff in reception were as always very helpful and would go out of there... more

Although booked via a major tour agent who were terrible - taking two lots of deposts from us, changing the welcome party and then saying it was our fault for missing it etc - this was a lovely holiday. The apartment was perhaps older than others that have been mentioned. Maybe this is because I need a wheelchair so they... more

We stayed for 1 week in July 08 in Villamoura - we wouldn't stay here again if we were coming again. First the positives - our room (€171 per night incl breakfast -but more on that later) was excellent - cleaned every day , bright roomy & had a pool view. You had to pay extra for air-con & a... more

Stayed here for a week in what we assume must be one of the newer studio apartments. Very spacious, well equipped and clean. It overlooked the smaller and less busy of the two pools, at the far end of the development. The on-site mini-market did not appear to have much to offer, but the nearest supermarket was only 10 minutes... more

Got back at the weekend from a week's stay in Pinhal Da Marina. First of all, Villamoura is a nice place in general and there are some really nice restaurants (mostly not on the marina) with very reasonable prices. Lotsa nice flashy cars about too and tons of savage villas. Right, on to the apartment review. I did plenty of... more

As a family (myself my husband and our 3 year old child) stayed at the Pinhal da Marina in July. The hotel doesnt look so attractive from the outside but the rooms are more than sufficient. We were several floors up, which we requested. The view was of the hotel sight which was pleasant enough. The staff were very very... more

We stayed at the pinhal for 7 nights in september and would return in a heartbeat. The apartments are located in a quiet residential area which is about 20 minutes walk from the marina. Seemed to be popular with families and couples and not a lout in sight. Our apartment had been refurbished and was the most modern apartment we... more

We have just returned from our week's stay.We had a great time,we stayed in a one bedroom apartment over looking the smaller pool.It was very spacious,with lots of amenities,including a large kitchen equipped with a dishwasher-there is no doubt that this place has a touch of luxury to it.The balcony/patio was large,with two sunbeds for those of us who are... more
