The room layout was weird. Same door swings to close toilet or shower , one or the other. Very strange. 6th floor room overlooked suites on 5th floor’s decks and their personal hot tubs so not comfortable using our balcony. These rooms also opened to hallway that looked down into atrium so nightly shows in lobby were very loud- we managed- and price was right so all okay. Lastly breakfast does not measure up to others on our Portugal trip. Cold pancakes/ Waffles every day. Buffett catered to European customers understandably but would have liked non fatty bacon, cream for coffee and maybe cream cheese and smoked salmon. Our experience in the restaurant was awful. Understaffed- ordered red wine, they bought us a bottle of white,the chicken entree took over an hour to appear. Many empty tables, but the waitress turned away newly arriving guests. Very strange. BUT the food was good. Great location/ 45 minutes via boardwalk to marina and town. Took some time getting used to the 2 elevators on different ends to get out to private pool. Hotel on a step hill so 2 connected buildings. Overall an okay stay and upscale clean resort but could not recommend. .
