Hotel occupies a stunning plot set up on the hill over multiple levels. The breakfast was excellent and all the staff were great with the exception of Celina who was outstanding - going out of her way to accommodate any requests, and possessing always a cheery disposition. The dinner menu was good but when you stay for more than one week is boring and would benefit from, at the very least, one daily special. The room was tired, in particular the bathroom with the shower door not shutting and the toilet seat poorly fitted. We had a beach towel on arrival but it would have been nice if this was automatically changed at the end of week one. The hotel apparently had a barbeque for the first time on the evening before we left and our driver to the airport asked whether we had been but we had no idea of its existence. On two nights a week there were music events (open to outside visitors) which impacted on the rest of the hotel which was a shame as really they should have been in addition to 'normal service'. The pool was beautiful but there were at least 7 hard plastic sunbeds that were missing their padded topper which meant if you were out in the morning you would possibly end up in the afternoon on a very uncomfotable sunbed - for not much cost I'm sure these could have been replaced. I would recommend the hotel as a very restful holiday but would recommend they address the few niggly issues and invest a bit of money in the tired areas

Stunning!
The hotel is sited in an amazing position and there were stunning views from most areas. The rooms were clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed. The hotel facilities were good. There wasn't a huge choice for breakfast but it was stylishly presented, fresh and most enjoyable. Fruit was in abundance! All the staff were polite, friendly and helpful. The transport provided was useful, efficient and much appreciated. All covid restrictions were well observed and we felt safe. My only criticism is that there are a lot of steps and not many handrails!

The design and location is amazing. It is quiet and peaceful. Few children. It is however, a little tired and ready for a refit or TLC (renovation works were going on whilst we were there). It was disappointing that a lift was out of service for the whole week. Not easy to carry luggage up stairs, with no assistance from staff.

I'm not a big fan of heights, there are a lot of bridges to cross to access the elevators, which as the hotel is set across many levels need to be crossed a lot! However there are alternative routes via stairs if you can manage them. We loved the lay out and clever use of space to maximize the views from the cliff top

I died and I went to Estalagem Heaven
Everything about this hotel is superb. As a huge devoter of architecture and design, this is exceeding all my expectations. No detail has been forgotten, even the jug the fresh orange juice is served in to the replenishment of the breakfast spread. Staff are happy to cater to your every need. They are discrete, calm and always greeting you with a smile. Rooms are crisp white, bedsheets felt like cashmere. The food at the hotel restaurant is great, there is absolutely nothing that I can fault about this place. It was my friend's birthday and they had organised a birthday cake which was so thoughtful. If I die, i hope it looks and has the sensibility of Estalagem

LOVE it!! need to update to continue with ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I think there should be a shampoo and conditioner when it's a four star hotel. Had to buy in the store to be able to wash my long hair. The toilet seat was loose and rickety, had to reassemble it when it came off. Way too much bright lighting, no romantic cozy lighting. Otherwise very comfortable beds, pillows, towels, nice view of the sea from the balcony. Good breakfast, very good dinner in your restaurant!

Abbiamo cenato due volte presso l’hotel; il cibo era davvero ottimo. Vista mare dalla stanza molto bella come pure dalla piscina…per il resto purtroppo ci sono molte critiche da fare: ascensore principale + ascensore interno fuori uso - letti molto rumorosi e tutto molto datato.

Tolle Lage und sehr schöne Zimmer mit Meerblick. Nettes Personal und einen sehr schönen Außenbereich. Die Küche war auch hervorragend. Die Pfege der Bäder war nicht ausreichen da es durch den dunklen Boden sehr schnell zu Ablagerungen kommt die einfach schmutzig aussehen und nicht entfernt wurden. Gerade im Nassbereich und auf dem Balkon fehlten die Siliconfugen am Boden.

Her finner man roen og turmulighetene.
Vi ville ha et bra hotell, men forholdsvis lite, og i et rolig område som lå i nærhet til sjøen og gangavstand til flere levadaruter. Og vi fikk oppfylt alle våre ønsker.
Hotellets fantastiske basseng.

Descanso pleno
Ambiente calmo com excelentes vistas sobre o mar, centro da vila e que de noite se torna mágico, mais ainda com as luzes e decoração de natal. Perfeito para descomprimir e carregar energias bem positivas! Espaços verdes dos jardins bem cuidados, tornam este hotel muito envolvente e acolhedor. Conforto térmico dos quartos, muito bom, camas bastante confortáveis e bem espaçosas, assim como wc renovado, moderno e pratico com duche envidraçado em toda a volta e sem degraus ou desníveis.
