Getting there
Great for walkers

Have just returned from our third holiday here. For the first time we were given an apartment not with a side view of sea and pool. Much prefer that view however the bonus was did not have the noise from the building site next door. The staff as usual were efficient and personable. The biggest downside was the pool being closed we were aware of this before we travelled but when we got there we saw other properties Algarve Hotel and Jupiter Hotel to name just two . We asked at reception and were told it was because the full time residents would not obey the rules about numbers in pool. So the much needed tourists must suffer. If we return to Portugal covid permitting think we would want an open pool when the price of sunbeds on the beach being so expensive. If you stay here do visit the W restaurant and La dolce vita pizza restaurant both veru good and have good covid procedures in place

My 2nd visit here, 2wks self-catering, really like it, the location is fantasic, just across from the beach. The rooms have balconies facing the beach side on, the road in front has loads of cafes/bars/restaurants. The kitchen has just enough equipment, large fridge/freezer, hob only - no oven but a microwave. It's clean, the bathroom/lounge/bedroom are big enough. Uber taxis cost €4/5 to the local huge supermarket where prices are excellent, the local shops are good, but can be pricey. The staff are very helpful, and friendly. Will definately return.

Overall it is good but has small details that can be improved. On the good side has air conditioning both in the living room and in the bedroom, the TV was updated during the stay and went to have all the channels of the meo, the kitchen is well equipped for a short stay, the balcony has a table and chairs and during the stay of 7 nights were made two cleaning. By the negative, there is no WiFi, the parking costs 15€ per day, there is no information of prices of anything, neither parking nor stay fees, upon arrival we are informed of the payment of 100€ deposit that we also do not have this information anywhere (neither the payment nor the amount nor the conditions of the deposit), the apartments turn off the electricity without a key which leads to some food that are in the refrigerator end up ruining, there is no dining table only the "island" of the kitchen which is super uncomfortable, we got without electricity while cooking because we had the exhaust and an air conditioner connected at the same time; the pool is very small, the space has few sun loungers, the shower does not work and the late part of the kitchen there is no sun due to the shade of the building. Despite being in front of the beach the access to the same is not immediate we still have to walk a little.

First thing about the hotel has to be the poor service that they provide. In most if not all hotels when you request room service they usually change the bed sheets make the bed look nice and clean floor replace towels, at this hotel however they didn't change any of the sandy bed sheets and they made the bed with minimal effort with some of it not being tucked in. They didn't change any of the towels either. Furthermore for an apartment they don't provide chopping boards to cut your food. No dish soap and sponges either to clean your dishes. The pool is apparently open from 10-8pm however on Monday they where short staffed so they closed it at 6 however all they do with the pool is open and close a door there are no amenities such as chairs, umbrellas and towels provided at the pool definitely not something you would expect at a 4 star hotel. All rooms only have single beds which are also very uncomfortable. Overall terrible experience especially for a 4 star hotel

It’s hard to explain how bad this place was. The pool wasn’t open, there was no cleaning of the room, not even for changing towels or topping up toilet paper. The beds were uncomfortable and everything about it was old. Anne Frank wouldn’t stay in this place.
If it wasn’t it's proximity to the beach it would have nothing.
It would be hard to say anything good about the place bar it’s location, but even then there are many other places that are that close to the beach.
Never again.

I recently reserved a non-refundable room at this hotel for a much-anticipated festival. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, the reservation was cancelled. I contacted the hotel and their reservation department to determine the status of my booking, and received contradictory explanations for its cancellation. I must add that I did not receive any confirmation email regarding the cancellation.
Despite the fact that I did not personally cancel my reservation, the hotel insisted that I had done so through their website, while the reservation department alleged that my card was "invalid." It is unclear what "invalid" means, but my bank statement proves that my card had been fully equipped to prevent any declined transactions. It is imperative for hotels to avoid such mistakes, especially during the peak festival season where rooms and hotels around Praia da Rocha are in high demand.
As the hotel was fully booked, they were unable to assist me further, and I was left with no options. Clear guidelines must be established to prevent such blunders from happening again. The hotel should take responsibility for their mistake and make significant changes to correct these issues.
I strongly recommend that the hotel review and reevaluate their reservation policies and procedures to guarantee that their guests' experiences are not impacted by such errors in the future.
If you are considering booking a stay at this hotel, please take the this into consideration.

I recently stayed here for 6 days with my sisters. We arrived late in the evening and were greeted at the front desk with a smile and a very helpful gentleman. He checked us in and within a short time we were in our apartment. The apartment itself was lovely with all amenities. The view was absolutely amazing. I simply can't emphasis enough how amazing the view from our apartment was. The staff were helpful and I asked for an iron the next day and was given one straight away. The location was perfect beside everything, pharmacy,shops and restaurants. They have a storage room for luggage that you can use when checking out and have a later flight. The person at reception printed off our boarding passes for us the morning we were leaving. Overall I would highly recommend this place. We will definitely stay here again.

Before we get to the annoying things, let's look at the positive things: - the location close to the beach overlooking the paséo - the rooms are spacious (apartment hotel) and clean - the swimming pool with sea view - the guarded parking but still costs 20 euros per day with spaces that are rented year-round and which require you to search for a long time where to leave your car in this garage
Otherwise the bedding for children is uncomfortable (not suitable for older teenagers) Neglected common areas The swimming pool not so big considering the number Old sanitary facilities Not at all modern hotel Free WiFi only at reception 5 euros to have it in the room Safe for a fee per day Poor sound insulation, but fortunately not very noisy
Given the location, I still recommend this hotel for short stays due to its proximity to the beach. Many restaurants nearby
As for the staff, it is heterogeneous with good elements and others without particular qualities.

We stayed in the Turim Algarve Mor in June 2023 and again in October 23. These apartments are ideally situated within easy walking distance of the beach, shops and restaurants. The apartments are basic but well kitted out and spotless. The staff are very helpful and friendly. All in all very good value for money, highly recommended.

Horrible mattresses. Very noisy neighbors above and poorly soundproofed hotel. Noisy street. Motorcycles cars everything resonates..I do not recommend at all. Toilet paper given once during a one-week stay...we probably have to buy it ourselves too.

Sunbeds are free but can be limited peak season,there is no snack bar or bar of any sort within the hotel but there are several just outside along the street. Hope this helps
"Great value, perfect location, nice staff, and amazing views as you're right on the beach. Very quiet place considering how close you are to everything."
