Cabo de Santa Maria Island hotel rooms a the Vila Gale Hotels

"My daughter (aged 9) and I have just returned from a lovely week at Domes Lake Algarve and she is already asking when we can go back. The hotel is a great balance of big, but not too big. We were there mid-August (which I imagine will be one of the busiest weeks of the year) but always managed to find sunbeds when needed and the sand pool is a genius concept. My daughter also loved her sessions at KiEPOS (kids club) which gave me some time to relax and enjoy the spa. A great week all round. "

"Excellent food and service throughout 7 day stay. Short walk to fabulous beach, great spa and relaxing pool area. "

"Beautiful resort with a very calming vibe. It’s very big but never felt like there were lots of people around or overcrowded. Staff are very friendly & helpful. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Large variety of options at breakfast. The only issue we faced is that it’s quite far away from anything, the nearest shop for amenities is a 25 minute walk away, and you need to get taxis everywhere as there isn’t anything in walking distance or any local transport options, although the resort offers free drop off/pick up at the Marina 3 times per day. Would highly recommend for a relaxing and luxurious break. "

"Fantastic location and great staff."

"Nice resort with tennis. Enjoyed multiple pools. Would stay again."

"Location great, breakfast super, roof top pool amazing, some of the roof top furniture could do with fixing . Rooms were lovely and clean. Staff friendly and helpful. "

"Great little hotel on the edge of old town. Breakfast is available for purchase but the Pastelaria across the street is amazing…don’t miss out on the pastel de nata and espresso! Everything is completely walkable and we had the best time there! Faro is small town friendly and we’ve never felt safer walking streets and back alleys at night. Take the tuk tuk tour to get an overview of the area and pay attention to the guide…he was a living history book and we had a great idea of what we wanted to see and in what order afterwards. Faro was amazing, you won’t regret your visit or this hotel. "

"It's rare when I walk into a hotel room and I'm stunned. It was a fantastic stay. The hotel staff was very friendly, kind and helpful. The location is in the center of everything but still tucked away from the hustle and bustle. If you're in Faro, stay here!"

"Area outside resort at night didn’t like "
