Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at an apartment in the Quinta da Marinha golf resort. The room was large, clean, airy, with a huge bed, large mirrors, and a reliable hot shower. However, it didn't cost a penny because the bathroom was not ready, and repairs were ongoing.
I had such an amazing time at this hotel. The room opened directly above the waves of the Atlantic with seagulls welcoming us with their calls and even a visit from a curious dolphin. The sea view was breathtaking, and the room was very clean and spacious. However, the dining experience left something to be desired.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with amazing views but could use updating. The service is outstanding, though some staff members may come across as a little rude. The location is ideal for those seeking relaxation and nature walks, with easy access to the beach. Dining options are simple but satisfactory. Facilities are basic but functional.
The hotel had a mixed experience. The rooms were not as modern as described, but we enjoyed the nature sounds in the morning. The service was mostly friendly, but some staff members were not as welcoming. The location is beautiful but needs some maintenance. The dining was satisfactory with a good continental breakfast. Overall, a decent stay.
