São Rafael Holidays

Perfect!

酒店無人，比較偏僻，交通不便。廁所比較舊。

This is a lovely place to stay! 15min walk to the Marina! 30min walk to Albufeira. If you’re not fit enough to walk a taxi is £10 into Old town. The staff at the Guesthouse are absolutely amazing! They can’t do enough for you. Very appreciative of their help during our stay. Considering our holiday booking company messed loads of things up the ladies here were amazing! Sorted us a taxi back to the airport! Bought decaf coffee from home everything was such a nice touch! Thanks for making our stay memorable!

Really can’t fault the guesthouse. Was a nice and relaxing stay, but on the small side but it’s how I wanted it. The staff are very helpful and couldn’t fault them for the entire stay. I hope to come back soon for a longer stay next year. The breakfast was decent and had a nice Portuguese feel about it. The prices at the bar are reasonable as well with the pool area being very clean.

To say this place was awful is all I can do after my personal experience there recently, I certainly would never book to stay there again or recommend it. I booked a double room in their Guest House part of the complex. * The Reception is only open certain hours. You are supposed to be able to contact them outside those hours but I had to call them a couple of times and got no answer or help. It’s really impersonal and there’s no one around when you need them. * There is no facility to make hot drinks in your room. There was a bottle of water. You have to go to the breakfast room where a vending machine serves terrible quality drinks. You don’t want to have to walk around the hotel first thing in the morning to get hot drinks. *Room 521 was right by the door into reception and was noisy all night with people banging through into the corridor to get to their rooms. * The space immediately outside of the double windows in my room opened out on to the terrace for people sitting having breakfast. This was horrible and gave no privacy into the room at all. Thankfully it was raining but had it been sunny I would have had people sitting right up by my only window in the room. * They have waterproof mattress protectors on the bed which made it feel like you were sleeping wrapped in tin foil it was so hot and it crackled loudly every time you moved. * Pillows were either absolutely enormous and too big to put your head on or so flat and small they were useless. * No bathmat provided for the floor while showering, bit of a safety concern and I had to use a pool towel. No where to hang towels in the bathroom when you’ve used them…it was all just lacking in thought. * No waste bin in the bedroom * Horrid yellow lights in the room * It’s very dark and depressing inside. * Bright light over the door to highlight where the door was in the night but it lit the room up through the night making it hard to ignore and sleep. * Breakfast is only available from 8.30am which is very late. It was poor, stale bread and dirty jars with cereal in with a very poor selection of foods. Overall this was poor quality, grim and depressing and absolutely not worth the cost.

The area was lovely and it was close to a nice beach. The villa was spacious. The private pool was a bonus but we had to let management/maintenance know that the pool ladder was broken upon our arrival, so hopefully they will address that before the next visitors stay in the unit.

This property is located in a very convenient area. You can walk to a few 5 star rated restaurants and even a local beach. No more than 10 min walk to any location. It feels very safe to walk at night, we really enjoyed that. Prepare to hear a lot of instructions with a map when you arrive to get to your hotel room and they don't assist with luggage. Although the hotel is located on a very beautiful and large piece of property the rooms are not up to date. The wifi is very spotty. We had a leak in the bathroom that left a big puddle on the floor our whole stay because nobody came to fix it even though they told us someone would come. This was very upsetting because nobody came to clean the room either so we were left with limited towels which we used for the puddle. These are things you do not want to deal with after a whole day of traveling. I really wanted to love this place but they have a lot of fixing to do. Staff was friendly.

The first morning of arrival, the boiler woke us up as it was making a strange noise, the receptionist out with it and we were told that it was not normal. One part of the water is wet and the decor was peeling off the walls. This is one of the worst places I’ve stayed at I would not recommend this place to anyone.

There was many problems with this hotel, cold pool, damp walls with small areas of mould and cracks and peels in the walls hidden by furniture. Definitely wouldn't recommend staying here because of how these complaints were handled when risen. Unacceptable!
