The room was a perfect size with comfortable bed and chairs. The bathroom was above excellent in my opinion. The breakfast had an amazing choice of food selections and was delicious. Your servers were kind and quite efficient.

The breakfast was good. If you are just going to the beach and close by restaurants then the location is ok. It's not in the center of activities.

Bela Vista is truly a gem. There's nothing not to love here. It took us a little under 3 hours to get there from Lisbon airport, which was a breeze. The rooms were a decent size, but the view was absolutely stunning. There really isn't much reason to leave the hotel, and here's why.
On the first night, we dined at the Michelin-starred restaurant, which was an experience in itself. Don't be discouraged by the serving sizes—trust me, you'll be full by the end of the meal. We chose the wine pairing from Portugal, which was amazing. Each dish was sensational.
On the second day, we decided to rent a boat with Thalassa Yachts on the recommendation of the hotel concierge. We were not disappointed. We spent $700 on a stunning, beautiful yacht for a half-day, complete with wine and cheese! Highly recommend this—it is very much worth it. We heard that further down the coast, the pricing was three times this.
For dinner on the third day, we tried to get into Reis de Praias Restaurant, also known as King of the Beach, but we couldn’t get a reservation. It's important to book early, as the view here is stunning, and it seems you can spend the day there. We ended up at Ferragudo Terrace, which was excellent!
We also wanted a high-end luxury nightclub experience for adults 30+, so we recommend YOU, which was about a 45-minute drive but worth it. They had some very well-known DJs and an elevated crowd.
Last but not least, the food at Bela Vista's pool and dining (not Michelin) was delightful. We loved the codfish cakes—they were so good that we ordered them everywhere else we went, but none compared to Bela Vista's. For dinner, the sea bass in salt crust was outstanding.
That's all I have for this amazing trip!

Portimao has an amazing soft sandy beach, probably the best in the whole of the Algarve. It has lots of beach bars and restaurants and we could always find somewhere to sit and take in the view. The sea is always cold being The Atlantic but the grandkids didn't seem to mind. We found a super Italian Restaurant near to The Jupiter Hotel called Bella Pizzaria, try the spaghetti with oil, prawns and garlic, its superb. The grandkids loved the spaghetti bolognaise and had it twice during our 7 day stay.
There is a large Aldi and Lidl near to Alvor which is a short car journey away,. We used Ubers which were easy to get and very cheap. We took an Uber to Alvor and had a lovely evening there.
We went to Slide and Splash on a really hot day. All the 'free' shade from tress was taken up and we didn't take a sun shade. Unfortunately by the time we realised that you can hire them for 5euros (with a 5euro deposit) they had all been hired out. So take one with you, there are plenty of grass areas to put it up. You can also hire beds with a shade for about 10euros. Whist we had to queue for the bigger rides the smaller rides had shorter queues and they moved fairly quickly.

Portimao was a pleasant town to stay in.
Portimao was a pleasant town to stay in. It's biggest draw is the beach, shopping/restaurants and doing a trip to the Benagil Caves. There is a cute little "train" ride that you can take as well. I feel like there could be a lot more that could be done promotion wise. Maybe some sight seeing tour booths along the main avenue. We came into town by train and used Bolt to get around. Easy to use!

There is a lovely boardwalk with a fabulous beach . There are lots of places to eat along the way. Not suitable for someone with a disability as there are lots of steps to navigate to get down to the beach . I ate in a different restaurant every night. The food was good and not too dear. There are lots of little shops to peruse and people are very friendly. I would reiterate that the steps down to beach are not suitablle for someone with mobility issues

Portimao and surrounding area full of interesting places to visit, boat trip to Silves very good. Did trains to Lagos and Lisbon which where good.
Night time Portimao was very quiet, Pria Da Rocha is the place to go, good number of restaurants and bars to choose from, some with bands on.

The location for the race circuit was perfect.
The location for the race circuit was perfect. Nice neighborhood and fairly quiet. Be careful of stray dogs or dogs in other properties if walking around. Security of the gates is good, however the windows (most) don't lock. The kitchen utensils are basic and the kitchen itself. The shower heads are loose and hard to control. Lighting outside wasn't working and bbq was basic. There is a bus stop at the end of the road about 200 mtrs.

The beach was great and there were plenty of shops and restaurants in the area. There is a bus from the beach area to the central square but then you have to walk a short way to the train station. Having a train from the beach to the train station would be excellent.
Simple hotel with everything one needs. Perfect for beach vacation. Good location in the more quiet part of the street. Some rooms have balcony with sea view. VERY friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast buffet style was good. We could easily extend our room one more night. Small parking right next to the hotel and plenty of parking within 5min walk in case the hotel parking is full. 2 min walk to best ice cream place in Algarve: Gelateria Sorbetto.
The hotel is just a short walk from the beach and next to lots of shops and restaurants. The staff were super nice and helpful. The breakfast was really good. The room was a bit small and the furniture and the fixtures a bit outdated but I found it charming, it reminded me of holidays in my childhood. Importantly, the place has its own parking lot behind the hotel, which was very convenient. The shower has reliably hot water.
Everything, good location close to the beach, everything within walking distance, Ubers are super cheap, nice spacious and clean room with small kitchenette, staff were lovely and helpful, nice pool area, lovely views of the marina.
I can imagine how busy and popular the hotel gets in the summer.
Outdoor furniture needs to be upgraded. Pool is without integayd lights (looks cheap).
Overpriced (considering price in Portugal)
No beach beds in beach.
No parking.
