Very relaxing hotel, beds very comfortable, overlooking the sea, but the approach and area is not in the best place of the Algarve. Meal times, lots of food served buffet style with usual situation of watching people being greedy and great piles on plates and lots of activity. There is a separate restaraunt but price high and quality not very... More

On a business trip we vitually took over the hotel for a week so with a captive audience the hotel did not have to try too hard - and they didn't. Rooms were ok but could have used an overhaul - tired and could easily have been top class. Certainly plenty of space. Public areas were tidy but lacked character... More

We stayed here for 4 nights over the new yr period....we booked a side sea view and was more than adequate ...you may want to pay the extra for full sea view but we enjoyed the view from the 5th floor...(best views from 3rd floor and above) We stayed half board and the food was very good with plenty of...

Just arrived back from 2 weeks at this hotel and can only agree with all the positive comments already posted. Stunning location and excellent food.

What can i say, what a great hotel we cant praise this hotel enough. its spotlessly clean through out the hotel.The views are lovely we had a superior seaview room which was excellent,so spacious with great views of the sunrise. We counted 132 steps down to the 8miles of fantastic beach so i guess you need to be able to... More

Although I'm not exactly "Alan Whicker", I do know a good hotel when I see one and the Porto Bay Falesia certainly is. We arrived a good two hours earlier than the due check in time, but we were pleasantly surprised to be told our room was ready and that we could go straight up. The room itself was very... More
