I had an amazing stay at Vale d’El Rei Hotel & Villas. The property is absolutely beautiful—nestled in a peaceful and scenic location that feels like a true escape. The gardens are lush and well-maintained, and the overall atmosphere is tranquil and inviting.
My room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with a lovely view and all the amenities I needed. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. I also really enjoyed the breakfast—great variety and fresh options each morning.
The pool area was a highlight, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the Algarve. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or a relaxing break, Vale d’El Rei is a fantastic choice.
Free breakfast was a treat!
Our room had the discomfort of neighbors next door. They turned on the television and the snoring started after the tv was turned off, lasting for quite awhile. Annoying as we had to wake up rather early next day.
The sound proofing of the room was not good at all, another neighbor hit the walls in the morning to make others be more quiet.
We didn’t use any amenities, so no reviews possible.
The location in Tavira is excellent, one can walk easily anywhere around without loosing lots of time!
Excellent hotel and service. The view from the hotel of the sea and the beach is fantastic. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset from the hotel room. However, the room and the facilities are quite dated and showing it's age.
Boas comodidades, excelente localização
Ar condicionado com alguns problemas, só a partir do segundo dia começou a funcionar bem
Sempre que ligamos para a receção (antes e durante a estadia) nunca nos atenderam o telemóvel (aproximadamente cerca de 15 chamadas)
O secador de cabelo deixa a desejar, assim como o pequeno almoço, pouca variedade
Pretty good all rounder. Close enough to walk to the marina if you really wanted but we took cabs everywhere as they're cheap enough. Decent breakfast, good gym but wasn't too fussed with the pool. The indoor pool mentioned belongs to a neighbouring hotel and you have to pay for use so that was a bit cheeky.
Staff stand out there. Super friendly and genuinely seem happy to be working there.
Pro: Hotel Alba was very clean, the staff at breakfast were very hard working, if a plate was empty on the table, they would remove it straight away. Check in wasn't until 4pm which is a little late than usual but our room was ready by 3pm so we were allowed to go in a bit earlier. The room was a lovely size, plenty of space, comfortable bed and very good shower. Breakfast was very good - pastries/fruit and a little cooked breakfast - buffet style. Plenty of beds and umbrellas around the pool.
Con: The reception staff not very friendly and the 'bar' (which is just an array of alcohol bottles on the back shelf of reception) not great. Missing a trick here to not have a few more comfortable chairs/umbrellas around the top end of swimming pool and a 'mobile' bar and maybe serve snacks/toasties etc.
O espaço exterior era agradável, a zona da piscina era bonita e a agua da piscina era quente.
Em relacao ao quarto, tinha sido limpo antes de chegarmos, no entanto tinha bastante pó ao ponto de fazer alergia. Haviam tabuas de madeira levantadas no chao (estragadas) e o ar condicionado era bastante antigo (todo o quarto era antigo).
Sempre que entrávamos no quarto, cheirava a esgoto e a casa de banho tinha humidade (preto) no poliban.
o restaurante era agradável mas as refeições pouco variadas. Nao davam opçao de trocar acompanhamentos caso nao gostássemos de algo.
O pequeno almoço, pelo contrario, era bastante variado!
Ein wunderschönes Hotel umgeben von einer herrlichen Gartenlandschaft. Kaum angekommen passierte etwas unvorstellbares - Black out auf der iberischen Halbinsel. Die Hotelmanager haben vorbildlich reagiert - Informationen gegeben, jeder Person eine Wasserflasche zur Verfügung gestellt, abends im Restaurant kalte Speisen und kostenlose Grillgerichte serviert. Auch das Notstromaggregat lief stundenweise. Somit fühlten wir uns, trotz Unsicherheiten, gut aufgehoben.
Die Sonne genießen an der herrlichen Poollandschaft ist ja auch nicht zu verachten. Das Frühstückbuffett war abwechslungsreich, auch mit guter Auswahl für Veganer und Vegetarier. Wir haben, unter anderem, das herrliche, süße Obst sehr genossen.
ゲゲストThe hotel was located really conveniently near Old Town, the bus station, and the beaches. We booked a room with 2 beds as listed by Trip but were given a room with only 1 bed and the front desk said it was actually based on availability, but there was no mention of this on Trip. If you have specific requests regarding number of beds make sure to write it in your special requests. Thankfully they were able to accommodate our request in the end. The pool is nice but I wouldn't recommend ordering food by the pool, overpriced for what you receive - the drinks were fine though. Otherwise the stay was good and no issues!
ゲゲストThat's the best hotel I've ever stayed in. We stayed in Premium 2 bedroom villa,at the level of a 5-star hotel! We had everything what we could ask for to make a breakfast or dinner. We got a dishwasher and washing machine with capsules, hairdryer, coffee machine and coffee, sugar, milk powder etc. My kids were over the moon. The level of cleanliness in this hotel is incredible! We extended our stay. Staff very friendly. Let not even mention the pool, looks fantastic you can ask for. We definitely want to come back!
ゲゲストI have been staying at another hotel in the area a few times each year for the past 3 years, however having been asked twice at checkout for a tip from the front office staff, I was simply appalled and decided to check out Ria Park.
An absolutely fantastic of hotel and extremely worthy of its five star.
From the concierge to the front of house, waiting and housekeeping staff and pool service… Myself and both of my daughters (in theur20’s) had an absolutely wonderful time and plan to return again very soon.
MMaik SchmitzNice hotel, Very quite at the river. The city is closed and you arrive to the beaches on a few minutes. You should have a car. I liked the spa and the gym too. Very friendly staff and modern building.
匿匿名ユーザーApartamento amplio y muy limpio(con falta de mantenimiento, mango de la puerta suelto, columna de la terraza en mal estado y agua en el lavabo no bajaba), ubicación tranquila por la noche, necesario tener coche ya que está a unos 20km de Portimao, parking gratis delante del alojamiento, negativo: piscina del apartamento en muy mal estado completamente descuidado (losetas sueltas, madera suelta, falta de limpieza), lo bueno se puede usar la piscina del hotel (hay que caminar un fisco).
ゲゲストA Trip.com não fez muito esforço para tentar o problema da necessidade de alterar a reserva em cima da hora.
O quarto que nos foi atribuído tinha uma boa vista mas estava localizado no último piso e com equipamento que faziam um ruído variável durante a noite, razão pela qual as noites foram poucos descansadas.
匿匿名ユーザーExcelente ! É para repetir! O único senão, o Restaurante solelua , a doses são minúsculas, o atendimento foi perfeito, mas quanto ao menu quando regressar optarei por um dos outros restaurantes disponíveis!
LLucia cañizo FernándezLlegamos el lunes 11 a las 15.10 fuimos a la recepción a hacer check in, según su página a partir de las 15.00 podíamos entrar a las habitaciones. Después de esperar 2 horas para que nos dieran las llaves, según ellos porque no habían llegado las almohadas… entramos en la habitación y decidimos quedarnos esa tarde en la piscina. Apenas 30 hamacas en toda la piscina para más de 60 personas, nos obliga a tirarnos en el césped. Desayuno buffet, pobre… repetitivo todos los días. El jamón serrano el mismo que iba sobrando todos los días, a día de hoy estaba de color verde (poco apetecible).
La habitación normalita, los amenitties nulos… apenas una caja con pañuelos de papel y un gorro de ducha… sabemos que había más porque nuestro amigo tenía bastoncillos de algodón y limpiador de zapatos. Ni siquiera un cepillo de dientes. A las 17.00 aún no está la habitación limpia… pedimos por favor que nos la hagan y tardan más de 1 hora en venir a hacerla.
Para ser un hotel 5 estrellas bastante normalito… me esperaba más después de pagar 700€ por 5 noches.
