We were very impressed with the location of this hotel - front row seats to 24-hour ocean waves. There was a glitch with the water/pipes in the wing we were in and we had to move rooms. The staff was apologetic and amazing in their professionalism to find solutions that worked. Staff was very pleasant and friendly. Rooms are spacious and clean. Every room has a balcony I think. The seagulls float in the outdoor pool which is kind of nasty but since it’s January we didn’t plan on swimming out there. The location to local eateries is very close too which is a bonus. The tile work on the walls at floor 0 and up to floor 5 is amazing. I recommend this hotel to people. We enjoyed our stay very much. The village is beautiful. The people and staff are nice!

The hotel has received an upgrade, what is well done. The only thing what still needs an upgrade is the pool, this should happen coming November. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, breakfast is good and the location in the town is excellent, everything in walking distance. (this is the 4th or 5th time we stayed here)

Excellent location on a lovely wide sand beach. Hotel has well maintained public spaces. Only exception is the corridor carpet leading to the rooms which should be replaced. Staff is helpful and friendly. Rooms could use some maintenance and upgrading. Our room had a strange smell and as pointed out by others a sewage smell when on the balcony, which was a shame because the view is fabulous. The included breakfast was very good with sufficient choice. Could have been the best freshly squeezed orange juice I have ever had.

The hotel was very clean, and I had a lovely quiet room with an excellent view. The breakfast buffet had a good selection and though it changed little day to day I always left satisfied. One evening there was quite loud music coming from one of the restaurants somewhere below my room, at bedtime I did need to close the glass doors tightly to get to sleep, I missed the beautiful sound of the ocean that night. I probably wouldn’t return to Sesimbra, but not because of the hotel or the area, there were a few things I did not have time to do or see. It’s just that there are so many other areas of Portugal that I want to explore the next time I visit.

Placeringen findes ikke bedre i Sesimbra, men hotellet er ikke et 5 stjernet luksus hotel. Værelserne er slidte og selvom der stod de type vi bestilte var renoveret i 2024 så passer det ikke. Gulvet der lignede træ var i vinyl og havde sluppet underlaget, så døren havde svært ved at lukke. Døren til badeværelset bandt så meget at den dårligt kunne lukke. Tapetet havde sluttet flere steder og sådan kan jeg blive ved. Gulvet på badeværelset blev vasket en gang på 9 dage. Morgenmaden var ok, men ikke god nok til et 5 stjernet hotel. Ville vil komme tilbage, ja det ville vi nok alene på grund af beliggenheden. Nu kender vi så også hotellet og ved hvad vi går ind til.

The property and views are stunning. The food wonderful. The sauna and beach access are great. Depending on your needs you should know: Some rooms require stairs to access (plus an elevator - need both) so if anyone in your party is elderly or disabled, fyi to request a room that’s accessible (as I’ve stayed here before and was still surprised by it when arriving with my mother. Who knew?) The balconies are wonderful. If you are bothered by smokers though you should know this can be a problem. The spa is absolutely lovely. Also, true that communication can be spotty. I had a wonderful massage that on arrival to the spa I was told was on special. Great! But that meant I agreed to a much shorter version of it. I didn’t know so it made for an awkward surprise when I exited the treatment room 30 minutes sooner than I expected. I later read a poster in the elevator telling me the this - but first had me playing 20 questions with the spa staff about why the massage was short. It’s a very nice place! But it’s smoother if you know these things.
