Top Santa Maria Hotel Reviews

Pure Monchique Hotel – Villa Termal Spa Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The thermal pool was not working, and the elevator was not working, the amenities where spread around the hotel and everything closes early for dinner. Very good breakfast though"

Monte do Alento - Castro da Cola

8/10 Good

"This property is a little oasis hidden away. While a bit tricky to get to as you have to drive on unpaved roads, it's worth it once you get there. The room had everything we needed, and the breakfast was wonderful and included local products. The location is quite rural, however, the closest town (Ourique) was only a 15 minute drive away. It's not a big town by any means, but there were a few restaurant options and a Pingo Doce and an Aldi for groceries. The only thing preventing this from being a 5 star stay was the atmosphere during our stay due to other guests. There happened to be a large family who booked during the same time as us and they completely took over the pool area. As the location is in such a quiet area and there isn't a ton to do, we were looking forward to sitting by the beautiful pool and relaxing in the afternoon. That was tainted by children screaming and jumping into the pool, in addition to them bringing a speaker and playing loud music for hours. They were having a good time and the property is family friendly so perhaps our fault for not inquiring, but if you're looking for a quiet getaway, this may not be the place to book. While it wasn't the stay we were hoping for, the staff and accommodation itself was wonderful."

Villa Termal Spa Hotel – Villa Termal Spa Resort

8/10 Good

"Finding the reception was a challenge as Google maps brought us to the Spa. Check in was simple and easy with very pleasant staff. We had a lovely stay and the termal spa was delightful, again with helpful and pleasant staff. The grounds of the resort are lovely with a lot of old broadleaf trees. The grounds are in need of a complete clean up and Maintenance. It's a pity because the walk up to the Fonte dos Amores is so lovely and peaceful. Breakfast is Fab with great choice for everyone."

Quinta do Canal

10/10 Excellent

"Quel bel hôtel! Le look des chambres à l’intérieur était super ! L’arrivée se fait de manière autonome, très facilement. Le quartier autour n’est pas super, mais lorsqu’on arrive dans le complexe, on oublie vite car c’est tellement paisible. La piscine et les installations étaient parfaits! Nous aurions aimé rester plus d’une nuit. Le lit est bien. Tout était propre. Le déjeuner très bon."

HS Milfontes Beach Hotel - Duna Parque Resorts & Hotels

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in an excellent spot overlooking the beach. It’s particularly lovely at sunset the breakfast was excellent and the staff are very helpful. The actual room was clean and hygienic. The only issue we had is that the hotel looks worn out it needs to uplift, painting and show an element of modernisation. Overall we enjoyed our day."
