Stayed at Dona Sylvia for a one week winter break. Excellent break if one week a little short. On arrival in the early hours of the morning after a rather lengthy and ardous trip from Manchester, was greeted in an extremely friendly and welcoming fashion, being offered food and refreshments. The room allocated was a bungalow style ground floor apartment.... More

We stayed at the Dona Sylvia for a winter holiday in January. The hotel’s location is excellent. There are a number of very good restaurants just outside of the gates, and the hotel has direct access to a gorgeous beach. A walk of 100 yards-or-so North along the beach will take you to a quiet spot away from the beach... More

This was a return visit to the hotel after 3 years. Standards are still good, with reasonable selections of food in the buffet restaurant - although there seemed to be more of an emphasis on veg. dishes than in previous years. The hotel has certainly become popular with Eastern European guests, & some Brits may find their behaviour a little... More

Stayed at this hotel for 3 weeks from 1 January. It is quite a basic hotel but very clean and the staff are amazingly friendly. When we arrived there was an issue with the swimming pool (water was very cloudy) but this was rectified during our stay. It is also in a superb location, right at the heart of Cavelossim.... More
