My wife and I have just spent a very enjoyable week at Rio Arade. It was here first time but I've been coming here with some golfing friends for 6 years now - 7th trip coming up next month. As always, John and his team were very welcoming and helpful. The hotel itself is located in a small village so... More

Breakfast was very tasty with a generous selection of fresh food. John and Carlos are very helpful, with loads of advice on places to see and things to do, especially with... More

John and Carlos were wonderful hosts who went out of their way to help us in whatever way they could. The room was clean and spacious and the shower was amazing with lots of pressure and hot water. Although buses are close by, would recommend a car to explore the area. The only disturbance was the crowing rooster and barking... More

Rio Arade is the favourite address for our trips in the Algarve. A respectfully restored traditional manor house, situated in the unspoiled village of Mexilhoeira de Carregacao. Only a few minutes to the fabulous Beach of Ferragudo and close to the lively Town Portimao, it is the most central location to explore the whole of the Algarve easily. John is... More

This time, in December we shared our stay with no less than the Archduke and Archduchess of Austria who were on a quiet private visit to Portugal . Just like the Archduke and his lovely wife we were, as always treated... More
