Aldeamento Turistico da Prainha

Lovely stay in a beautiful resort. The Atlantic pool in particular was beautifully landscaped with stunning views over the cliffs and sea. Great selection of restaurants and bars on site and also along the boardwalk towards Alvor. The townhouse we stayed in was clean, apart from the inevitable ants, and had most things needed for a self catering holiday. The only things missing were a hairdryer and bottle opener so bring these with you. Also there is no luggage service offered so depending on where your accommodation is located on the resort be prepared to carry/drag your suitcases some distance.

family of 5. 3 childrens ( 12, 10 and 7) we booked the hotel direct and this was the start of the first class service. The hotel arranged the transfer from Faro for us and we always found the staff very helpful . Especially the restaurant, Monica and her team( more about that later) We stayed in a villa that was massive. 3 floors , 3 terraces, Lower floor consisted of 2 bedrooms ( suitable for 3 kids) and 2 bathrooms. mid level was the entrance , dining and kitchen, and the top was the lounge. The decor is slightly dated , however interior design was not the reason for the holiday and everything was clean and worked. The complex has a well stocked shop, several restaurants and 2 no. pools that we took full advantage of. The atlantico pool is fantastic. We were there for a week and should have stayed longer, We had a walk to Alvor (about 30 mins with plenty of stops for refreshments) , we had a day at splash and slide ( brilliant) and a little visit to Praire da rocha ( as expected) To conclude - we stayed half board and this made the holiday even better. Firstly we didn't have to cook! but secondly and more important Monica and her team looked after us every morning and night - what a team. Always smiling, welcoming and accommodating. Thankyou all.

I stayed here for a week with my sister… Booked through On the Beach We were given the keys to the apartment, given vague instructions on how to get there. No help whatsoever with luggage. Humping 20kilos suitcase and hand luggage. We are both in our 60’s We eventually found the apartment, after walking around in the heat covering 4.5 miles!! The apartment was horrible, nothing like the photos shown by OTB furniture old and tired, it was depressing. We left cases and returned to reception. Long story shortish, we asked to upgrade.. Given keys to 2 accommodations First was the same as original only 2 bed no door on washing machine… £309 to upgrade The next was a 2 bed townhouse. This was much more like the one we were expecting. £424 for this one. We took the townhouse. We ended up booking a taxi, at this point we had done 5.5 miles walking. The taxi picked us up at reception took us to pick cases up from original accommodation. Then took us to the new townhouse. Cost of 15 Euros. By this time it was dark🤦‍♀️ Taxi driver drove as far as he could. Then we had to try and find accommodation in the dark, lugging cases. I ended up sharing my bed with a colony of ants 🐜 I would not recommend this hotel. Or booking with On the Beach.

A beautiful and quiet location in April. We had a wonderful time. Enjoyed breakfast in the hotel twice during our stay. Due to it being quiet, some food was cooked to order. Also enjoyed Miss Pasta I agree with other reviews that charging for sunbeds seemed really silly - everyone was just sat on the grass next to them. The staff were all friendly and welcoming and the townhouse we stayed in was perfect. The complex is large but it has a lovely feel to it. We enjoyed walking back to our house via a different way each time!

We had stayed here when our children were young. After more than two decades we took one son back with his wife and two small children. They loved it. Our individual villa was refurbished and in very good condition. The setting is lovely and photographs are easy to find. It is worth pointing out that accomodation is separted from cars, it does feel safe for children. Similarly the swimming pools are at a safe distance. The format for "Could you say a little more about it" does not apply. This is a villa complex and not a hotel.
