This hotel and golf course just has to be seen to be believed, it is absolutely spectacular. From the staff, the bedroom and balcony, bar, dinner (we’re on half board) breakfast it’s all excellent but the golf course is sensational. We’re only here for two nights so just played the course the once but it is a really enjoyable course, quite up and down so I’d recommend a buggy unless you’re super fit and very young and the views from the course across the lake are breathtaking.

Complete missed opportunity!
29 May 2025
Drove from Lisbon to arrive on the island, a beautiful and grand arrival sequence crossing the causeway on a tree lined avenue. So! Was expecting more from the hotel overall. The welcome was very average as well as the rooms, amenities and service (with exception of one young lady in the restaurant). The hotel commands a fantastic position, although poorly oriented, against an impressive lake, however there is no access to the lakeside, we tried but ended up walking over builders debris. The general condition of the building and definitely the landscape was very poor. The pool was closed despite the temperature being 35 degrees when we arrived. The surrounding villas have been vandalized and the place is generally a complete mess. It is such a huge shame because this place and hotel could be absolutely outstanding, but unfortunately isn’t anywhere near what its position demands.

Terrible night

WIFI doesn't work. Water tastes bad and has a lot of chlorine. There isn't enough light in the hallways. The location is far from everywhere.

An unexpected discovery, a private island feel you can drive to. A very quiet environment, the hotel shares the isle with a private community of villas, there are parts that are not accessible to the hotel guests but you can access the beach via lift. Some areas are a little run down (abandoned building project around the beach and some abandoned private villas) but is not related to the hotel. Hotel is well-kept and nicely furnished, the views of the beach from the bar/cafeteria and restaurant are excellent, the food is acceptable. Will return.
