    We were unable to get to the hotel on the first night booked and it was too late to cancel. I phoned the hotel to explain that our dog sitter had an accident and we were unable to make it on the day booked, we knew we had to pay so no problem. We managed to make alternative arrangements so managed to get to the hotel for 1 night. At reception we were met with a warm welcome and helpful gentleman who offered us evening meal as we had missed 1 nights stay. The bathroom has been refurbished to a modern, high standard. The bedroom was excellently decorated with modern light fittings, very clean and tidy. Whilst did not detract from our stay the furniture is a little dated. The bed was excellent and it's the best nights sleep I've had in weeks. The breakfast was really good, the breakfast room is lovely and light and airy and again the staff were all lovely. The location is superb for both the town and the beach. Definitely will stay again.

    The hallway leading to our room was very dark & depressing. It needs to be refurbished with better lighting.

    Adjacent to the beach. Substantial buffet breakfast with good strong coffee. Lovely wood paneled lobby & bar with vintage prints which created a warm ambiance. Friendly bar tenders who mixed excellent cocktails.

    Unlike the hotel, Monte Gordo has changed a lot, with more hotels bars and restaurants a big wheel and a fun fair for the kids, but it’s not our scene really.

    We visited Vasco da Gama 40 years ago and the hotel is largely unchanged; it has remained authentic to the period in which it was built. We loved the pool area and snack bar. The beach has beautiful white sand, has a gentle slope into the sea and is long and good for walking.

    Our only slight dissapointment was the breakfast/ dining room which is a bit regimented and 'school' like. However, that is nitpicking and didn't make a lot of difference to our stay.

    Our first visit since 1969 when we sneaked in as teenagers to use the swimming pool. The accommodation and general ambiance of the hotel has a touch of class. We will be returning. Already booked for October. The location and parking is perfect for a long or short break.

    Staff on reception weren't the friendliest. My air con was slightly damaged and no kettle in the room. No irons available either. My toilet flush broken slightly and some aspects of the hotel are a little run down but I was very happy with my stay

    Good selection of breakfast and offered specialist milk for allergies. Breakfast and dinner were very repetitive though and sinner not worth 35 euro per night that they charged. Waiting staff were friendly and attentitive. Happy hour in the bar was good, half price drinks 5-6pm. Rooms were large and comfy, the hotel generally was exceptionally clea and the house keeping team were great. Good location and price, would recommend

    I really can’t think of anything to put here.

    The breakfast was excellent. Great choice and good coffee. The location simply could not be better. Walk out the back onto a boardwalk leading directly onto the beach. Walk out the front and you’re 50m from café shops etc. No charge for safety deposit in room. Lovely pool area with plenty of beds and umbrellas.
