    The room could use some updating. TV and furniture getting old, especially the sofa bed which was squeaky, but the beds in the rooms were comfortable and the bedding very nice. The shower in our room didn´t work when we arrived and took four days to get fixed, had to complain five times before the plummer arrived.

    Beautiful place and very well maintained. All the facilities you could wish for and a friendly atmosphere. Very large though so it takes a while to get to the swimming pool, tennis courts, etc. I recommend asking for an apartment next to the facilities you intend to use the most. Restaurants on location very nice but very expensive, especially the breakfast buffet.

    Amenities, there were a lot of options for things to do. Rooms were great and clean.

    This is no knock to the hotel, I have zero issues with the hotel... the airport immigration line was the worst I have ever seen... I have been to 94 countries and never seen such a horrible system to process passengers.

    The resort was amazing, well kept, clean, and golf was a blast!! Our kids really enjoyed a lot of the amenities the property had to offer, the rooms were very spacious!

    Food is really overpriced- in some cases shockingly so. It’s not that great either. We ate primarily at local restaurants as a result, that were much nicer and a fraction of the cost

    Facilities are superb. It’s very clean. Gardens are stunning

    Nothing really. Restaurants were pricy in comparison to those off site but you pay extra for the ambience and the quality and service was very good.

    Top class resort with very comfortable facilities and beautiful surroundings. Breakfast buffet is worth paying for with excellent quality and extensive choice.

    Shame the beach restaurant was closed for dinner and the prices were quite high with coffee at EUR6 (but it was delicious). Other than that we were impressed.

    I loved the space of the hotel and the access to the beach, via a lift and stairs leading straight to the beach. Breakfast was good with a great selection of fresh fruit and vegetables daily. I loved the fresh bread and rolls as well as little pastel de nata. Spa was great as well and the indoor pool ideal for children. We had a wonderful time and i wouldn’t hesitate to return.

    Can't think of anything. It was all good.

    Impeccable property and first class service. Every member of the staff was very friendly and helpful. 5 Stars for restaurants for the breakfast at the O Grill. Corda grill & Mare restaurant on the beach were both wonderful. Didn't get a chance to try the others but they all looked great. Can't recommend the place highly enough. The property was huge and having the shuttles on demand was very handy.

    The pools are probably not big enough nor are there enough beds around the pool to accommodate the number of guests. It’s egregiously expensive at the resort. Everything is charged. When we were delayed for a children’s activity because the man driving the shuttle took us to the wrong building they still charged for 10mins of a 30 mins experience.

    The property is well maintained and clean. There are plenty of activities, especially for children, the golf and tennis academy are great. Although it’s hard to book these without going to the actual golf and tennis locations to book. Pine cliffs really need to work on an app where you can book. The beach is incredible and staff helpful in providing deck chairs when all beds were taken.

    The cost of all activities and restaurants are on the very high side. An hour of paddle ball is 55€ including rackets rental. The towels are quite old and some with stains and holes. There is a smell from the drains.
