Hotels near Povoacao Beach

"This resort is beautiful, modern, well-appointed, with wonderful rooms-all with a perfectly functional kitchenette. The sushi restaurant is delicious. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The location is quiet, somewhat remote, and beautiful "

"The breakfast was excellent but could be a little more varied as we stayed 4 nights. Staff was helpful and welcoming. They took you to your room and showed you how everything worked. Had a night service leaving you a chocolate. Also had great housecoats. A surprise was a sparkling wine and mini cake left in our room for my birthday."

"Our stay was excellent thanks to the peaceful surroundings and wonderful breakfast!"

"Clean beautiful room! Rod was very friendly and helpful, responding immediately if I had questions. He even was able to bookme a last minute massage, which was WONDERFUL and worth booking in advance. "

"Couldn't locate the showers for the Turkish sauna so was unable to shower before. Also , one of the saunas had no humidity and the other was too hot! Otherwise, all else was superb including the delicious meals and the staff. We really enjoyed our visit. Thank you for a wonderful stay."

"We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Vale Verde. The staff were kind and helpful. Recommend doing the cozido cooking workshop. It was fun and tasty! "

"Was windy and rainy not possible to use the pool. Breakfast was good "

"The gym equipment is very old and almost nonfunctional. The sauna could be much warmer. One of the front office staff was a bit clueless. The rest was great."

"My rating is partially on my stay but more so the staff experience. Background: I have always wanted to visit this property. I am from the West Coast in California and it is a long journey to get there upon arrival. The grounds are absolutely beautiful. It is everything that I wanted in terms of a retreat and a place to really have a sense of peace. Unfortunately, there were two events that happened in rapid succession and I was not happy or enthused at all. Rather than go into the details of what transpired, I would like to go more in depth into their response. We all make mistakes, however, what I found very refreshing was that one, they not only owned up to both incidents, but two, they made every conceivable effort to atone for them. That level of honesty and urgency is ultimately why I would visit this resort again. That level of dignity and respect is very much appreciated and it was because of that that I was able to enjoy the rest of my time there."
