2 out of 4 rooms we booked had issues. Breakfast was good. No space reserved for the hotel at the beach. Gym opens at 10AM and close at 8PM.
We add ants and cockcruch in the rooms.
The hotel provided daily cleaning which was nice and unusual to us for a 7-day resort stay. However, we were surprised that the unit didn't provide any tissue paper or paper towel for the kitchen. One single small cutting knife provided in the kitchen can barely cut through an apple. There was neither a dishwasher, nor dish washing liquid, sponge or kitchen towels. So, we had to purchase those basic items from grocery store. The beach was in a walkable distance from the hotel. But I didn't see any restrooms or shower/changing facility at the beach.
Visiting family
Have been here before, a few times including holiday with my wife and children in the summertime.
It is a great hotel and very well located
We found cockroaches in our room almost every night during our stay.

Check in the room was not ready which was not an issue. However the receptionist was going to offer us a room to change in and then was it seemed overruled by his supervisor which was poor.
Room itself was ok apart from a wet used towel left beside the safe! Also disappointed that there was no kettle with tea/ coffee in the room which is pretty well the norm in hotels this day. A average stay which with a bit more focus on customer care could have been excellent.

Rummet luktade mat när vi kom, dåligt ventilerat.
Kackerlackor i köksskåpen
Sofforna var i galon och mycket tråkiga att sitta i
Stolarna på balkongen var gammla och slitna
Badrummet hade dålig ventilation
Pollen och utomhusbaren var inte öppen trots 25 grader
Inte prisvärt på långa vägar trots att köpt en juniorsvit

Luonnon linnuista kiinnostuneille.
Ystävällinen henkilökunta, hyvä aamiainen.
Suosittelen paikkaa linnuista kiinnostuneille, koska Salgadosin luonnonpuisto on ihan vieressä. Saimme siellä 60 eri lintulajia.

Fantastisk fin miljö med bra pool område för både vuxna och barn. Bra hjälp vid in- och utcheckning. Bra utrustning i köket dock saknades diskborste och diskmedel vilket behövde köpas i närliggande butik.
Nära havet och promenad stråk som förgyllde vistelsen.

Harte Betten und riechende Zimmer
Die ersten beiden Apartments haben dermaßen nach Knoblauch gestunken, das geht gar nicht. Zunächst wurde nur ein Spray in den Raum gesprüht.
Das dritte ging dann soso. Der Kühlschrank war schmutzig. Das unangenehme jedoch sind die Betten. Die sind so hart und ungemütlich. Wir haben beide schlecht geschlafen.
Frühstück war in Ordnung.

Um porto seguro e tranquilo no Algarve
O Vila Galé Atlântico está muito bem localizado, a poucos metros da praia, e possui uma equipa cordial e atenciosa. Trata-se de um hotel antigo, mas nem por isso deixa de ser um opção segura no Algarve. Creio que em tempos normais encontraríamos menos problemas do que nesta estadia. Ao chegar, tivemos de enfrentar uma fila muito grande para fazer o check in, a limpeza do apartamento deixou a desejar - apesar do selo Clean & Safe encontramos uma teia de aranha assim que entramos no apartamento -, e as restrições devido à pandemia fizeram do pequeno almoço um momento caótico. A limitação do menu do jantar também foi um ponto negativo. A comunicação e a coordenação dos funcionários também precisam ser melhoradas. No site, por exemplo, diz que o ginásio abre às 7h, mas no local a informação é de que o horário correto é às 10h. Além disso, atrações indisponíveis, como parque infantil, não estão informadas no mesmo canal. Entretanto, em tempos de pandemia, o esforço para bem receber seus hóspedes deve ser ressaltado.
