Vale d'Oliveiras Quinta Resort & Spa - Lagoa

Winter Break This hotel deserves the highest praise. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food in the restaurant was very good. We stayed for 8 nights and ate in every night. Our only complaint was that the restaurant, in winter, was far too cold. Beautiful surroundings, close to all amenities. We would return.

An excellent high quality hotel with a fine restaurant and top quality staff. Extremely attentive and friendly they made our stay special. The quality of the food in the restaurant was first class with perfect service at all times. An outstanding experience in every respect.

This was the second time we have stayed at this lovely resort. We were travelling with a young baby for the first time but the staff were very welcoming. Our townhouse was lovely & spacious with a good sized travel cot with its own bedding. Although the bedroom didn't have blackout curtains the room was fairly dark with the shutters and curtains closed. […] The kitchen had a microwave and kettle, a washing machine and a good supply of pots and pans and utensils but no mugs, just tiny cups and saucers. Breakfast was very enjoyable. The mini chocolate croissants and scrambled eggs on toast went down very well although we ended up bringing our own brown sauce (for the eggs rather than the croissants). The outdoor pool was very popular even though it was mid October. We didn't spend much time there this year as the water was a little cold for our baby, but last year we were there every day. This year we used the indoor pool which was really nice. There was a baby changing area, the water was warm and the pool was never busy, even on the day it rained. We enjoyed exploring the resort with the pram and we also walked to the local supermarket at the golf resort (20 minutes away). However it was necessary to have a car so we could go to the bigger supermarket and also to enjoy various day trips. We wouldn't want to give the impression that the resort is full of screaming babies and noisy children - they are welcome but they are not the focus of the resort. Read more

If you are looking for a quiet hotel tucked away in the hills away from the crowds this is perfect. The hotel was lovely, clean and quiet. Staff were really friendly and the food was great. The rooms were clean, the pool was wonderful with comfortable sun loungers, the gym and indoor pool were very relaxing. Only downsides were the fact that you had […] to get a bus or taxi to the beach and town for dinner. Not sure how busy it gets in July and August. Read more

I was on first arrival pleased with the overall layout and exterior of the hotel. The room was too small and dark and did not represent the picutres featured on the website for the hotel. The bed was horrendous a point made by several other guests. The food was good but repetitive for breakfast it was also very expensive. the staff were excellent. The […] gardens were beautiful. again the website misrepresented the distance from the nearest beach. Because we had booked B/B we had to travel into caveiro every night for dinner. There was nothing to do and no shop to purchase basic facilities i.e. water. Read more

The hotel is perfect for a family with kids but think it would also suit couples only. Well maintained as still very new. Staff are generally pleasant. Had one or two slightly grumpy members but overall a good service. Great play area for little ones. Although wearing a pool cap is annoying for the indoor pool you can see the benefits as it's very clean […] and no hair floating about. Carvoeira is a pretty town. Not lots to do but ok for just relaxing on the beach. Need a car though to get around. Read more

A fantastic place to stay. We were in a 1 bedroom townhouse which had a very spacious living/dining area with comfortable seating, TV, DVD player, fireplace etc, a well equipped, spotless kitchen, beautiful bathroom with good quality towels, robes & toiletries and a spacious bedroom with excellent wardrobes & a small safe. There was also a patio area […] with table, chairs & sunbeds. The townhouse was serviced twice daily by the maid. The gardens & pool area was lovely, as was the indoor pool & spa facilities. The restaurant is well designed and the included breakfast was nice as was the one meal we ate there. We found all the staff to be friendly and courteous. We will definitely return. Read more

Great hotel, excellent food, fantastic staff, really genuinely friendly, great for families but without being "Disney", just a shame the outdoor pool isn't heated, otherwise it would have been pretty much perfect....so we used the indoor pool alot!

Overall we were extremely impressed with the resort. Our apartment was stunning and had everything you could want - DVD, surround system, comfortable furnishings, patio area, fully equipped kitchen - dishwasher, washing machine, juicer etc. We couldn't fault the surroundings, the pool was spacious and a place for families with young children and couples […] like us to enjoy without feeling "taken over". The staff were very helpful and polite - especially our cleaner and Fred, the shuttle service driver, a real character who recommended local beaches and restaurants to us. Thanks Fred! Despite the courteous, hard-working staff, we give the hotel service 3 out of 5 as at times we were affected by staff shortages especially in the restaurant. There does not seem to be an on-site operations manager to deal with problems as they arise. We were asked to wait from Thursday to Monday to speak about a one and a half hour wait in the restaurant! This is our only criticism of the resort. It was very busy during our two week stay and it was unfair for the staff to have deal with problems that should have been resolved by an onsite manager. Hopefully, this will be resolved by our next visit as it was a beautiful place to really unwind and recharge the batteries. We would definitely recommend it. Read more

Very nice and spacious rooms, with good facilities, however the housekeeping was certainly not up to 5 star standard, our toiletries were not renewed daily, and the slippers in our room on arrival were obviously 2nd hand! Waiters and waitresses were very friendly at breakfast but were struggling to keep up with the demand, and we had to help clear tables […] and sat beside other tables which were left with dirty crockery etc. Breakfast itself, was dissapointing, and not a great choice. Swimming pool was also small for size of hotel. Overall a little dissapointing, but we hope with time the hotel will improove and become top notch! Read more

This is a very nice hotel. The rooms are clean and spacious. It's 10 minutes drive to town and about 5 minutes drive to the nearest beach. Unfortunately, whilst the hotel itself was of a 5 star standard, the service there wasn't. For example, when the hotel is running a barbecue evening, the hotel bar is closed because there aren't enough staff to run […] both. It's just small things like that which slightly spoil an ontherwise good experience. Read more

Meget venligt og serviceminded personale, fantastisk hotellejlighed, alt nyt, dejlige faciliteter - kun virkede WI-FI ikke under hele opholdet på trods af forsikringer om, at nu kom det snart til at virke

Las habitaciones son correctas pero lo mas expectacular del hotel son las zonas comunes jardines arquitectura del edificio las piscinas esta muy pero que muy bien

Genuine Expedia guest review

Très grand confort du logement, vaste et bien équipé. Prestations de qualité (petit-déjeuner, piscines, ...). Idéal pour profiter du soleil de l'Algarve à l'écart des stations balnéaires hyper bétonnées et surpeuplées (Portimao, ...). Seuls bémols : le manque d'activités proposées en dehors du spa et du tennis (payant), et un peu de désorganisation […] dans le service hotelier. Read more
