Wow. Where do I start. Firstly let’s talk about what you are expecting from your stay. For us, it was purely a business trip. We were using this place as somewhere to get our head down as we were going to be out most of the day. Location: the location of this hotel is awful. There is nothing around. The food they were offering on the menu was so little we decided to go out and find a restaurant. That was impossible! We were walking for 45 minutes (with no Road but I will get to that in a minute) only to find a time town with few cafes and pharmacy. No food anywhere. Now, to get to this town was the scariest walk of my life. There are no pavements. We had to walk on busy roads around bends and everytime I heard a car come, I just tensed up, expecting to be knocked over. The Pool: it was green, dirty and very very small. The food: after our 1.5 hour round trek we decided to come back to the hotel to get food, we were starving. We had been travelling all day. I settled for a vegetarian pizza, would have been nice if it was cooked, it was cold in the middle and hot on the edges. Whatever my husband wanted wasn’t available (burger, pie, meat pizza) so he settled for duck rice. Omg this was the most awful thing I’ve ever seen. The rice was microwave packet rice and the duck…. Well, check out my pictures and judge for yourself. The staff: I have to say, the staff were lovely. Friendly and eager to help. Drinks: there were probably, a choice of 4/5 drinks to choose from. Great if you like whiskey or gin. The room: the room was small, basic and mostly clean. Just very dated and very old. Overall: I know this is a 2 start hotel, so my expectations really weren’t very high but I at least expected it to be in a location where we could walk to get a drink / food somewhere.

We stayed for two nights and we were really disappointed by the cleanliness and the hotel staff. I tried to reach out by email with the following points to the hotel directly as well as to the corporate office of Golden Tulip. But emails remained without answer. Therefore I post my experience here. Hotel staff is untrained, never greets and has pretty much no idea of hotel business, one guy was working in a t-shirt. The air condition was not working when we arrived (can happen). Two person of our group were trapped in an elevator. There was a fire alarm at around 10.30pm without any further information. The back of the bed and the bed frame were full of scraches, also in the restaurant (artificial leather wall). There were traces inside the toilet of the previous guests. The toilet brush was an absolut nightmare. Inside the kettle (I used for my baby) were little animals (silverfishes). Why would a 4star hotel use paper cups in in the bathroom and for the coffee in the rooms? The curtains had holes. All chairs and the sofa were full of stains. The shower head holder was broken. Breakfast buffet was just not on the level of a 4 star and presented without any care. I hope to inform other guets before the experience the same.
A wonderfully unique hotel on the seafront,close to restaurants,bars and the town. The beach is clean,beautiful white sands and gorgeous sunsets. We loved the spaciousness of our room and the hotel in general. Great artwork everywhere . We especially like the breakfast room/restaurant with panoramic sea views. Breakfast was good,we felt relaxed and welcomed.
Liked · The room is large, very clean and has nice newer furniture; nice automated blinds; staff is helpful and professional. Nice pool area and great food at restaurant. I liked that they provided tongues for breakfast for each guest to avoid same tongue being touched by tens of hands. Great idea! The restaurant food and the only waiter we've had were great. Prices are decent; I wish they would not charge so much for bread and olives- considering they are cheap to get. Very close by, walking distance, there is a grocery store where you can get essentials and food. They also have a coin laundromat, which can come in handy. The garage under the hotel was great, well lit and secure; also free. Overall, the hotel and staff was nice. I would recommend it for somebody who is looking for a quiet, comfortable place to spend time. Disliked · For a ”beach” hotel, you would expect to provide something to be able to dry swimsuits or towels on the balcony. A retractable string would have been of great help. Some wall decor and less plastic flowers would make the place more artsy. The breakfast was a little of a disappointment. Very few options, most of the time there was no omelette or bacon, no water, no cups. They seemed clearly understaffed in the breakfast area- only two people who were cooking, bringing out trays, cleaning. They looked stressed and overworked. Towels for the pool were provided, but they mentioned to hold on them for the entire stay. The pool water is cold, but that seems like a Portuguese thing- all pools we've tried in Portugal were not heated and cold. The beach was on red flag the entire 4 days we were there; they did not allow people to go in the ocean. To be honest, the high waves and cold water would have kept me away from getting in anyway. The area around the hotel is ok, more of a residential area. The walk to the closest beach is not at all scenic. Not close either. Not much to do in the area in the evening- a car seems to be a must to travel to other more entertaining areas.

This hotel is super well located! Spacious rooms, good amennities, air conditioning, coffee and tea in the room and complimentary water! José welcomed us very well and gave us several tips!! great breakfast. It has parking space and good wifi
When we arrived on our bikes, we were greeted so nicely before we even went inside. The staff here are invested in your every compfort 100% and 24/7. The hotel and our amazing beach front room with balcony is very upmarket. Someone has gone to alot of expense and effort to provide everything you could possibly need and with no costs spared. We would highly recommend the Furodouro Botique Hotel for your next beach holiday getaway.
