Lovely boutique hotel, much better than all those high rise buildings about the place. Love the decor with everything tastefully decorated, even the dining room and its crockery etc. Very nice pool and bar area.
Close to beach and so many dining options with great food, Portuguese, seafood and other.
Really enjoyed the Wednesday night Portuguese entertainment (we had the guy singer with guitarists, all exceptional) with tapas & dessert platters in bar area.

Hotel Rochavau in Algarves, Portugal
Good location. Slight walk to the boardwalk and beach. Great if you want to stay away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to the action. Clean. Good breakfast. Nice pool and bar area.

GO THERE!!
GO THERE!! Portimao was a great stay and also this hotel. One of the best breakfast i’ve had on a hotel. Should be 5 stars.
If u consider staying in the Algarve, choose Portimão and this hotel.

Amazing stay at a quality hotel
We stayed for 8 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the hotel. The location is ideal for one of the best beaches, close to a supermarket and easy access for taxis or buses. The premium room was definitely worth the extra, we loved the ourdoor area and the views. Staff were friendly and attentive throughout our stay, everything in the room and hotel was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed the bar and the breakfast service. It's hard to think of things to improve on. Definitely, at least from an outside look, one of the best in the area. Thank you for a lovely holiday!
