Costa Vicentina Residences

"great location and views - good property"

"You really couldn’t ask for a better resort with young children. I have seen this hotel for years and it definitely lived up to the hype. My two kids never ran out of stuff to do. We had a three bedroom villa and it was absolutely perfect. I really enjoyed the seafood pasta at both restaurants and the kids menus were diverse to cater to any preferences. We spent a lot of time at the resort, but also left to go to neighboring towns and it is a beautiful area to explore if you have a car."

"We went through the online check in process and got annoyed once as it didn't save my progress when the kid grabbed my phone and minimized the app. It did make access smooth but wasn't necessary as there was staff at the front desk when we arrived (we weren't sure we would be in time for that). Really convenient grocery store around the corner and plenty of free parking but off season the restaurants were all closed most of the time (not really our thing to eat out but thought I'd mention it because we saw people wandering looking for food). We walked to the fort after driving to the lighthouse the day before and seeing how it was on the way. Awesome nature preserve accessed by going through the fort with a wonderful walk and views."

"Restaurant food was very good, used the spa also worthwhile. Front desk very helpful and friendly. "

"This place is all around a lovely, elevated get-away oasis. Extremely clean, wonderful staff, beautiful location and grounds, and fabulous restaurant. A mile or two outside of the town. "

"I can't say enough about the location of this place. Every morning I drank my coffee on the balcony and watched the waves on the beach. I fell asleep to the sound of the waves at night and woke up to them the next day. And there are a surprising number of wonderful restaurants and bars near by (I don't think Google Maps did this place justice). Everything you need is within walking distance, including a couple shops and grocery stores. If you're interested in surfing, this is also a very beautiful beach with some beginner-friendly waves. My husband and I loved this place so much and would happily stay here again in the future."

"Utterly beautiful place. Very clean rooms, and super helpful staff and lots to do in the area. "

"Room was great with morning sun on the balcony/terrace. Staff not particularly friendly but gave out essential info. "

"Lovely room, cute pool, absolutely stunning breakfast, fabulous staff. "
