"From the moment you arrive, the beauty of the hotel is striking. Walking in feels like stepping into a peaceful sanctuary. Everything about the design, setting and atmosphere immediately creates a sense of serenity. The staff are wonderful and beautifully attired.
We stayed in a two-bedroom apartment with its own private pool, and it was simply stunning. The layout and design were exceptional. Both bedrooms were beautifully done, and the bathrooms deserve a special mention; there are two, each...

"Overall, a very good hotel/resort. The challenge is that it's layout is over a very large property. Finding your way around is a mystery and walking to your room, with the luggage, from the reception is very difficult ... but they arranged for a van to take us. Using Uber at night, the driver couldn't find our villa."

"The front desk was super helpful and the room was spacious. However, the pools were crowded - not to the point where you can’t enjoy yourself but also not super relaxing. I also found the buffet to be just OK."

"We originally booked a studio, but were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a two-bedroom apartment. It was very spacious and well maintained. The interior is a little dated in places, but everything was clean and tidy, so this didn’t bother us at all.
The beds and bedding were excellent, and the bathroom was great with a good shower. The kitchen is quite basic, but that wasn’t an issue for us.
Breakfast is small-scale but well presented, with everything you need. We also enjoyed relaxing...

"Very helpful and friendly staff. The hotel sent us a WhatsApp message after checking in which had useful information about the services and restaurants and said we could message if any questions which was nice. Pool was nice and beach a short walk - perfect for our family stay with 3 teens."

"Good place to stay: a lot of pools and beach is nearby. The property has microwave and oven, so we could cook for kids. The place is beautiful, great place to stay with kids - many pools just for kids."

"We paid extra for the adults only room, but had a hard time getting any chairs by the adults only pool. Everyday people would leave towels and the disappear for multiple hours, not letting other use the adults only pool chairs."
"Everything was perfect.
The location is ideal and the beach across the street is perfect.
Staff is very helpful and friendly.

"Overall, would recommend. A few things that could have made things even better - the resort is so huge, it can be confusing to figure out where everything is (there is a paper map provided during check in, but think an interactive/app would be much easier to navigate). It’s not always clear what is/isn’t included when staying at the resort (lots of things are discounted, but lots aren’t). The pool is a beach club. Not always suitable for children (we had our 2.5 year old with us and it could be a little rowdy in the afternoons/evenings. V quiet in the mornings. Also worth nothing that a DJ starts in the afternoon and the loud speakers are beside the kids pool making it unsuitable for young families in the afternoon/evening). The beach loungers are cash only - not a problem other than we didn’t know and had to trek back to our villa to get some as only had our phones for payment. Pristine accommodation with exceptional amenities. If returning, would get a villa with a pool next time. Parking meters at beach were broken in lots of spots so could be hard to make payment to avoid any fines. Staff in reception a little cold at times, but overall in the restaurants, beach club etc friendly and helpful. Prices reasonable for an upscale location with lots of choice for meals (of varying quality and choice). We didn’t use the shuttle as we had a rental car, and we were glad we had it as with a small child waiting up to 30 mins (as quoted at check in) would not have worked for us."
"Lovely hotel, the staff were great, friendly, helpful and available for help at any time. The room was lovely, clean and an incredibly comfy big bed! The view was great, the amenities were great, pools, gym, restaurants and bar all lovely, with easy and quick access to the beach, and loved the free shuttle to the old town. Would recommend to anyone!!"
"We had an amazing stay with our baby at the Marriot Hotel. The staff were attentive to all our needs and were swift to all requests. The room was always kept tidy by the cleaners and the breakfast had great options."

"Beautiful hotel and fantastic surroundings close to the beach and marina (with many restaurants, shops, bars, gelaterias). Staff are very helpful. Breakfast is fantastic. Rooms are spacious with lovely linen and towels."
"After an issue checking in where our booking was lost Jose placed us in a fab Junior Suite with kitchenette, sofa and bed. All hyper clean with great view of the beach and harbour entrance. Breakfast was the best with great choice from cooked to fruit & yoghurt to pastries. Always love coming to stay and never let's us down. Always recommend Vilamoura and especially the Ampalius."
