"Wonderful Stay at a Peaceful Retreat"

10.0

We had an awesome stay at the Pestana Palm Gardens in February 2026 for 6 nights. It's located about 20 - 30 minute walk from town and about 20 minutes from the beach. We're slow walkers and in much of Portugal, the slopes are pretty steep. Needless to say, we drove to most places. 1. We stayed in room 28 so we have the upgraded 2 bedroom with premium view. I wish the weather was better so we could have used the upstairs balcony with a wonderful view of the ocean. We did get to enjoy it for a couple of days that were sunny during our stay. 2. I definitely recommend getting a massage with Carla Sophia, the onsite massage therapist. She was absolutely wonderful! After walking around the steep terrain, a foot massage is definitely in order. 3. Everyone we encountered were very helpful. Housekeeping came every day to empty the garbage. They change the towels about every other day. They were clear that the sheets would get changed once a week. I'm okay with that as long as it was clean when I got there. We did not set up the couch bed properly and without being asked, Housekeeping fixed it for us and made the bed. I liked the initiative. 4. At night, it was super quiet but I do not know if this is because we were there during off-season or if the apartments are super insulated. Either way, we slept peacefully. 5. We added breakfast to our reservation. It included egg, ham, cereal, etc. Unfortunately, it was not a very good value nor did it vary by day. If I had to do it again, I may just do the hotel breakfast once or twice for convenience then go into town for breakfast for variety. 6. On multiple nights, we had dinner at the on-site restaurant, Sal and Tal, so we didn't have to drive at night. They were some of the best meals we had! Every dinner we had here was good. Definitely recommend the seared tuna and any of the pasta dishes. Overall, we got to enjoy the natural beauty of the cliffs and got the rest we needed. We would absolutely stay here again!

"A repeat of a nice stay."

10.0

We’ve stayed at the Palm Gardens before and found it to be good again. We’d booked a one bedroom but we’re given a two bedroom for the same price - a nice touch. The beds were fine, it also was quiet. On the very short list of complaints, the maid service was a bit unpredictable, there was no doormat outside and the kitchen window could use curtains or a shade for privacy. Otherwise, we heartily recommend it.

We had a great stay, staff were very friendly and helpful, gardens,swimming pool and accommodation was all immaculate. 10 min walk to nearest restaurants and bars, a further 10 mins into town, all well lit with pavements, lots of places to eat and drink. We would definitely stay again.

"Pestana Palm Gardens was just right for us."

10.0

The type of hotel villa complex chosen was just right. Low level and intimate, with Mediterranean architecture and well maintained gardens. The ‘Studio 1’ apartment would have been ideal apart from being allocated adjacent to the construction of another hotel. Having pointed out that was not part of the booking arrangement, we were subsequently upgraded to a 2-level apartment which was fine with a glimpse of the ocean some 10 minutes walking distance away. The nearest town is Carvoeiro some 15 minutes walking distance away. The rooms were cleaned daily, and the service and management of the Sal & Tal restaurant were excellent. Very good value for money.

"Good"

6.0

Old property. The kitchen door handle was broken. The bathroom tap kept dripping, no soap in kitchen. Frayed old towels. Baed room AC started dripping water on day 2 and had to shut it off. Lady at the reception unhelpful and made comments about too many tourists. Overall, not recommended.

"Great villa, and service, just the pool needs an attendant."

8.0

Villa was fantastic. Staff were amazing, efficient, and super friendly. Unfortunately you need to be quite fit to walk to the shops, restaurants, beach or anywhere. It’s about 30 minutes each way. We walked down and got a cab back. Nothing is local enough otherwise sadly. The pool needs an attendant. Too many unruly adults with their kids. Kids will have fun, we have a child, but throwing water everywhere, screaming and shouting, and the inflatables make it difficult to swim, kids constantly diving in soaking beds, and the smoking and vaping were constant and spoilt the relax around the pool. We all deserve a holiday! Going away in the kids holidays is unavoidable for us, I feel an attendant might calm things down a bit, so we can all enjoy. Overall it was lovely.
