Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The property, our apartment was nice, a bit tired and old, and air conditioning units on the balcony that were so loud it made it hard to sleep, when maintenance eventually came out to see it, they just shrugged and said 'they're old, nothing I can do'. The resort is massive and they have a shuttle service to get you around to the beach or supermarket etc...this was very good, very quick, and very needed. The resort has a selection of restaurants by the beach, we hated this area, it was like a bad food court, food was poor quality, the entertainment was bad karaoke and it was just full of young kids running and screaming everywhere. We had a 13 year old with us so we weren't expecting a couples holiday, but this was another level. Overall, the resort is pretty, the apartment/villa was good value, and the surrounding area is great with lots of lovely restaurants outside of the resort.

Bed comfort was horrendous… Very basic bedding, two separate beds in both bedrooms and at no point were we asked if we needed a double bed. The mattresses were the most basic you can get. There were some very basic food items provided but not nearly enough. Have stayed at this resort a number of times before and the stay has mostly been acceptable but this time it was not what we had experienced previously.

This was supposed to be a 5 star stay. I have done 5 star stays in Dubai.. you could dribe a jumbo through the difference to Vale do Lobo. Reception slightly offhand, have repeated the same instructions so many times that they are now bored so new customers come away and don't know where breakfast is (i handed in 4 out ot 5 breakfast vouchers as i has no idea of where i had to go.. asked twice). Apartment badly maintained.. the bathroom was finished by a child re tiling. They left barely enough loo paper for 1 person for 4 days, the sliding doors would not shut properly making a safety risk.. all in all SO NOT 5 star. I wont repeat. Very expensive for very little value. 1 item of value was the welcome basket.. 2 bread rolls, 3 jams, sardines and cheese.. delicious. The accomadation was dated, not secure and noisy at night. Think you can find better quality elsewhere locally.
