Barranco de São Miguel Hotel Accommodation

"We enjoyed our 3-night stay at the resort. The check-in was seamless and the front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. I would recommend renting a vehicle, as the resort is quite aways from dining (other than resort options). Parking in the outside parking lot was free, as well as street parking. Parking underground was 12 euros per night. In October, we had no trouble finding a spot outside. The room was in the smaller side, but neat, clean and comfortable. Yes, there were a few ants in the bathroom, but it was understandable given the somewhat remote location close to nature. I would recommend bringing insect repellant, even in October, if you plan to eat outside in the evenings. The breakfasts were pretty good, with lots of options. We had the dinner buffet the first night for 29 euros per person - but for every other lunch and dinner, we went into Tavira or Faro. There were much better options with 4.8/5.0 reviews on google that were tastier and less expensive. If you have a choice, eat outside the resort. That being said, we would definitely stay here again. We did the yoga and the paddle boarding and enjoyed both activities. The yoga was very basic and certainly no comparison to yoga in any major North American city, but the beach was lovely. The paddleboards were the inflatable kind but I got the opportunity to work on my balance and their drag made sure I got a workout in. The resort is comparable to a 4.5 star resort in Mexico."

"Lovely selection of food. Very well presented. Very clean and efficient staff. Clean room although some items were missed."

"The pool side was super with great food and beverage service offering inside comfortable seating st there terrace restaurant. We had a superior room and our balcony was with plenty of room. Seating could benefit from soft cushions and/or offer sun lounger for the larger balconies. The constant supply of water for our fridge was very much appreciated. Breakfast was a feast in their main dining area, so much lovely and high quality choices. Hostess seating service for breakfast was a little slow as they disappear for a little while and left us wodering where or when we would be seated. The staff were polite and efficient with a special mention to Ricardo on conciege. He goes the extra mile to assist! Fully recommend this hotel. "

"We have stayed here many times. It is a lovely hotel. This stay lived up to and even exceeded expectations. Everything was first class. The welcome when we arrived, the staff at the dado pool and at breakfast were all very friendly and professional. We have been here twice this year and can’t wait to return again in the spring."

"Good modern hotel. Breakfast plenty of well stocked options. Rooms are a good size and modern and comfortable beds. Roof top with pool is a lovely space. Sunbeds at a premium at times but usually find one if you hang about. Staff very friendly and responsive prior to and during our stay ."
