10/10 Exceptional

Loved the hotel, particularly the grounds & the air of freedom & wildness of the beach. Staff were great, never pushy, always friendly & the cleaning staff worked particularly hard. Really enjoyed the Pilates Classes with Nicola. (The other class leaders were good but really need more training in the basics of protecting the spine, engaging more with the participants etc) I loved the indoor pools & spa. Our room was not one of the newly renovated ones but we hadn't paid top $ & tailored our expectations accordingly.

Amazing stay at PortoBay Falésia

PortoBay Falésia was absolutely amazing. We – two adults and three teenagers- stayed there for six nights, and we loved every minute of our stay. The location is fantastic; overlooking the ocean, close to a magnificent beach ( just a few minutes’ walk), and the hotel and the seating areas are elegantly integrated in the landscape. Very friendly staff and overall, a classy hotel with great facilities (e.g. a large pool, well maintained tennis courts, padel court and a superbly equipped fitness room) . We’ve already started talking about when we can come back….
Bengt, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We have been coming to PortoBay Falesia for several years. We are checking-out today and are already missing the stunning front sea views with colourful clifs and excellent customer service. This time, we would like to extend a special thank you to Mr Pedro Esteves for his professionalism and care, a reflection of PortoBay Falesia's hospitality.

This hotel is amazing in every way. The location to the beach is stunning a short walk away and then into Olhos de Agua village five minutes away with a really good choice of restaurants. The location is peaceful. Hotel staff wonderful and we will return for a third year as will be hard to beat. So many golf courses around to choose from
Michelle, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Was here end of May and was just the hotel I wanted: quiet, clean but with pool and beach access. The beach was a bit of a trek down a lot of stairs, but well worth it. Try and find the Olhos d'Agua at low tide. Food is ok, but there are decent alternatives in the nearby town.. Definitely recommended for a chill break, but with easy taxi ride to the nightlife of Albufeira.

Excellent hotel. Rooms were decent size and spacious, food was excellent with plenty of choice, pool, facilities, location all very good. Would recommend.
3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall we had a positive experience. The hotel is dated and needs updating (which is apparently happening this fall). The rooms are all carpeted which is notoriously difficult to clean. That being said, the beds were comfortable. Everything is spotless, they are always cleaning and house keeping was excellent. The breakfast was great, nice to have it included. Waitstaff is almost too attentive, constantly coming by to clear your plates. We had the dinner buffet two nights and I was not impressed. Options were limited and I felt there were better options outside the resort. Granted walking to local restaurants isn’t ideal for those with mobility issues (hills, uneven terrain), but the food was great and reasonably priced. The bjggest letdown about Portugal as a whole? The beaches are amazing but the water is absolutely freezing! I am not exaggerating when I say it can’t be above 60 degrees. Sadly we couldn’t even enjoy the water because it was unbearable.
