Pousadas de Portugal in Sotavento from NZ$132

"Another great stay at Cabanas. So peaceful and relaxed. Staff are lovely. Two young guys at the bar deserve a shout-out. "

"My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at this 5-star resort! It is the type of place I look forward to returning to. Super safe and peaceful property with trustworthy employees. The staff really go out of their way to be kind and we felt each of them did an excellent job! The hotel room had a thoughtful design with plenty of space for two. I enjoyed that the toilet was in a different room than the shower. As we were there a week, I also found the large closet system well designed. I couldn't wait to open up the large window door each morning to allow the fresh warm sea breeze air inside! My favorite part of each day was the (included) breakfast buffet. It was really the highlight to starting the day off right. Plus we found no rush in waking up early, as it's open until 11am! What a treat! We also enjoyed slowly walking around the property and taking in all of the trees and birds. The large lake is also fully stocked with different types of friendly fish to watch. There were four different pools (one being adult only). An indoor spa with a Turkish bath, Roman bath, salt water Jacuzzi, and a Sauna. I was able to book in for a hair trim and blowdry, and both my husband and I got facials too. The actual beach is just a short walk around the lake on property, over a bridge outside, and you're there! Very convenient. And a quieter stretch of beach opposed to the main strips. Although this was a relaxing time away for us, we still had to work. Excellent wifi & desk. :)"

"The hotel staff was very welcoming, in particular, Bernardo and Hugo. Bernardo gave us a very good recommendation for dinner at the Old Tavern, which was wonderful, and also the surrounding area, which was beautiful. I only wish our stay was longer. The hotel is in a great location for exploring the old city, shops & seaside."

"Just got home from an awesome trip to Portugal. This hotel visit was our last three days and we were very impressed. The location was fantastic being right on the beach and close to everything you need. Highly recommend. "

"Hotel is more like a 4* but very nice. Clean and the rooms are really good. Staff etc were excellent, the gym and pool areas are really good. The food in the hotel is very expensive and not great quality."

"Great front desk staff, beautiful property"

"Me and my family stayed for 3 nights ar Real Marine Residence. The two bedroom flat was excellent. We had a everting what we need for our stay. The only things that we could not take advantage was the roof top swiming pool due to the weather. The staff were very kind and helpfull. We paid for breakfast for duration of our stay and we was given one day free breakfast. We really enjoy our stay and will recomended this hotel to our freinds "
