4.5 star rating | excellent staff and facilities | room - only shower no bath-balcony only had one chair - no table. we think it was because we asked for smoking room - it was punishment. | 05 October 2008 | |
5.0 star rating | Beautiful hotel perfect for rest and relaxation. Lovely beach, food good and The Raj indian restaurant very good also. No problems with anything during our stay. | None | 27 October 2008 | |
4.0 star rating | Very comfortable hotel. In an excellent location. Plenty of space. Easy place to travel from by public transport to other parts of the Algarve. | Some of the rooms are small. Evening meals lack a choice of vegetables. Some of the reception staff are not very welcoming others are excellent, not consistant service. | 03 November 2008 | |
4.5 star rating | great position - sea view rooms wonderful - right at waters edge. Super breakfast. Well positioned for days out exploring the Algarve to the extreme west at Sagres or up in to the Monichque mountains or East to Faro and the Ria Formosa. | 15 December 2008 | ||
3.5 star rating | staff were very good and helpful, the dining room was kept clean and tidy with plates being cleared staright away very positive | pool area - lack of beds and umbrellas, as per photos thought had sun beds on beach but when arrived having to pay 14 euros per day as lack of beds around pool area - would be good idea for discounted rate or free use for hotel guest as right outside hotel and hotel does not have enough for guests | 21 July 2009 | |
5.0 star rating | Really enjoyed our stay, Room excellent will definatly come again, next time we would order a fridge. | 27 August 2009 | ||
4.0 star rating | We have stayed here many times and always find it a very relaxing place to be in. | 27 March 2010 | ||
4.0 star rating | Very nice hotel which was clean. The floor we were on had been refurbished. Problems were dealt will quickly. Great location to the beach. | Drink prices were extremely expensive. | Bluehornet | 10 November 2011 |
4.0 star rating | The rooms were very clean | Not in a very good location if you are looking for a buzzing town, shops are scarce looking for somewhere to eat was a complete nightmare options are minimal. The hotel is not completely buggy friendly so if you plan on having a pushchair/buggy make sure it's sturdy. This is not a location if you are looking for nightlife the area is almost desolate!! The hotel food is awful. We had to pay â¬17 for a lunch buffet that was disgusting!! | VJ91 | 27 May 2013 |
4.0 star rating | Staff and food very good. Hotel right on beach and in a good location. | Some rooms on need of attention. i.e. plumbing, in our room tap cover kept coming off and shower head loose. Cleaning of room could be improved. | 17 September 2013 | |
5.0 star rating | everything was excellent. room, breakfast, location, staff | 06 September 2013 | ||
3.0 star rating | Room was ok, location excellent. | The staff were not always friendly or helpful. However one of the waiters was excellent always very nice so was the head waiter. It would be helpful if it was made clear that you seat yourself at meal times, we were left standing at the restaurant doors not sure what the procedure was. It would be easier to have a member of staff greeting you and showing you to your seat and explain the dining arrangements. Some of the towels during the week had seen better days and need replaced. Expectation of a 4 star hotel would imply that sheets would be changed at least once during the week, sadly not changed once. Hotel was ok however not 4 star | 09 October 2013 | |
3.5 star rating | I have stayed here several times because it is a good quality hotel located on a beautiful beach. The rooms modern and well appointed and Armacao town is on the doorstep. Wifi in the lobby area but not in rooms unless you pay! Staff pleasant and helpful. | Dining room breakfast is self-service which is fine. The cooked breakfast ingredients however are not good quality and are best avoided. The toasting machine, one of those roller affairs needs replacing as it takes 7 attempts to get any shade of brown. It's been like this for years and there are always queues of puzzled faces. We booked through Hotel Opia for the first time. When we arrived we were given probably the worst double room in the hotel; no balcony, etc etc and I suspect reserved for cheapskates like me! Fortunately we had booked a twin room so were able to ask for a move. Lucky us. We got a cracker just by the pool which was brilliant. | steviep | 09 October 2013 |
3.0 star rating | Poor very little room with broken equipment | Poor very little room with broken equipment . Overall a 3 star Hotel with beautiful location. | Michael | 26 October 2013 |
4.5 star rating | Lämmin huone. Hieno näköala. Palvelu erinomaista. | Kylpyhuone epäkäytännöllinen. Sänky hiukan kova. | Nimetön | 05 February 2014 |
