A lovely hotel only a few minutes walk from the centre of the resort. The staff are lovely and include lots of nice touches. We both celebrated birthdays and received cake a fizz each time. Gets a bit busy at the breakfast buffet, but overall a great hotel.

8/10 Very good

Good location in quiet area within short walking distance of beaches. Relaxing and upscale decor with tasteful touches throughout. Comprehensive buffet breakfast in lovely dining room. Our suite was well appointed with private garden patio area; no bedside lamps available and precarious and dangerous small step down from room to patio. Staff interactions were what you’d expect from an hotel at this level - very good.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a fabulous 10 days at Prime Energise. Sadly Hotel.com booked an incorrect room however the hotel did as much as they could to help us. We booked a suite with a full terrace however we only had a small balcony, was annoying but we made sure it did not affect our stay. We had full board which meant we cold either choose from the buffet meals or 20 euro spend towards the The al a carte menu. We choose the al a carte and it was absolutely outstanding with many of the meals below 20 euros anyway. Staff were all so friendly and attentive. The rooftop pool and bar area are again really good and always had spare loungers. Personally we could do without the music but that's just our preference. The beaches at Monte Gordo are outstandingly beautiful with lots of lovely beachside restaurants and bars. We visited Vila Real, Tavira and also hopped over to Ayemonte for the day, all close and certainly should not be missed.

Remember to book the spa in advance, plunge pool not very deep and some of the jacuzzi jets not working, other than that it was fabulous. Roof top bar and pool also great. Monte Gordo a solid up and coming location, not over developed for tourism. Worth getting out the town to Tavira or other beautiful algarve coast line locations - roads very smooth for driving.

Perfect getaway.

A wonderful stay at The Prime Energize. The staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. The room was spotless, bed comfy and ideal for our stay. The spa area was lovely. The indoor pool was perfect for a rainy January day. The breakfast was top notch. Continental or cooked was available. Faultless.

Good view of sea if you get the room on fifth floor, good bed, spacious room, spacious balcony, very clean room and bathroom with all amenities. The only thing that put us off were the broken locks on bathroom doors. Imagine the hassle of staying the day/ night with two mischievous toddlers. The breakfast and half board buffet is just basic. Although, you get the option to purchase what is not on the buffet menu. We wish the indoor pool let in kids in the evening if the pool isin’t busy. And wish the buffet had kids food.

Beds were inconsistent, wife's 1/2 was a nice mattress, the mattress on my side was old/worn and so soft that I had one of the worst sleeps of anywhere I have ever stayed, also the blackout curtains didn't work and almost fell on me when I tried to close them. Dinner: we were not shown anywhere on the Orbitz site that dinner was only available with a 24hour reservation (for a buffet?), and it was 30 euros per person. But the person at the front desk directed us to a very nice place to eat that cost us 1/2 of what the buffet would have. Parking: we were lucky it was out of season still or we would not have found parking. The site does not have dedicated parking that I could see, even though it says they have parking on Orbitz. I gave 2 stars because the breakfast was decent, and view from room was nice. After walking around, I came to the conclusion that there are nicer and cheaper hotels closer to the beach. Stay away from this one!!!!
