Some of the staff were very pleasant and friendly. There was a courtesy bus when I stayed as the hotel was situated a bit away from Alvor and Praia da Rocha. We did walk to Alvor and it took us a while. Ordered sardines in the restaurant, and was presented with tinned sardines, which was a let down really Electrics... More

The staff were very friendly and very helpfull. Room was very clean and had everything you would need for self catering. Enjoyed the entertainment put on every night. Taxi into town around 4 euro, or a nice walk. Great beach within 10 walk although not signposted so if i wasn't told it was there we would never have known. I... More

I stayed at the Estrela do Vau the last week in October 2011 with my wife and young son, and to be honest I was very disapointed with the hotel. Let me start with the positives, the staff are really friendly and the location was good if you rented a car, situated between Praia da Rocha and Alvor. I found... More

After reading all the reviews we were confident we made the right choice... We arrived late at night to a friendly reception and got to our room which was very clean and well equipt. Our negative side to this complex was the facilities. The pool was a mix between salted and chlorine and I know you're not supposed to drink... More

We've been to this hotel on 2nd Oct for 9 days. We booked a studio flat for 2 Adults and 1 child but were upgraded to 1 bedroom apartment on arrival. The flat was cleaned everyday (although that won't happen until late afternoon). The flat was spacious and has everything we needed (microwave, fridge, pans, plates...). The staff were friendly,...

Lovely apartments, stayed here for 10 days in September. We booked a studio apartment which was upgraded to a two bedroom apartment on arrival so we had plenty of space, including 2 balconies! Kitchen had everything we needed, and the apartment was cleaned very well every day. Pool area very spacious and plenty of sunloungers etc. Nearby beach is gorgeous... More

Stayed here Sept/Oct 2011. Agree with all the good comments I read before I went. Just a couple of points, Yes the prices in the onsite supermarket are seriously excessive but the hotel mini bus will drop you at the Continente supermarket and pick you up again for 2 euro pp return. This bus also runs to Alvor and Praia... More
