The Resort is in a Great Location with Beautiful Views, Lovely Beach and Good Facilities

The resort is in a great location with beautiful views, lovely beach and good facilities. I used the gym, the padel court, 5 days of tennis coaching and 5 rounds of golf, all of which were easy to book and conveniently located. The breakfast was good quality as was most of the food available at the various restaurants. I knew that everything would be expensive in the resort but the actual costs were staggeringly high – Euro 52 for a pretty small steak which they overcooked at Piri Piri which didn’t include any chips, veg or sauces was extraordinarily over-priced.  Service varied enormously.  The concierge was often busy and understaffed meaning long delays in booking restaurants, which then required you to pay within 2 hours to secure the reservation – ridiculous. A few times I tried calling reception but they never answered and I had to walk over to arrange for my luggage to be picked up. The service in the Japanese restaurant was excellent.  Unfortunately in the Pescador the service was abysmal – the waiters were arrogant, non-attentive, rude and unwelcoming. On one evening they made a menu for our half-board group with “catch of the day” which turned out to be farmed salmon! But overall I enjoyed the stay and it worked very well when we had toddlers with us.
