We booked this hotel through Jet2 travelling from the UK. Let me first say this hotel is Portuguese owned and they clearly do not welcome or appreciate British customers. There is no information in the room in English and very little anywhere else. Jet2 should not be sending their British customers here. The reception staff were borderline hostile to us in the main, ignorant mostly. Never felt so… We booked this hotel through Jet2 travelling from the UK.

Stay here if you like Big Hotel
To be fair, I think this hotel would be ranked higher by a different kind of guest. This is really a large all-inclusive charter vacation type of hotel.

In truth, there is one and the only dinner is an all-inclusive buffet. The… To be fair, I think this hotel would be ranked higher by a different kind of guest.
