Pestana Dom João II Hotel Beach & Golf Resort

Stayed same week last year excellent hotel excellent location excellent facilities excellent staff comfortable clean room

Hotel is close the beach. Reasonably priced and breakfast was included and I tell you that they have a great selection of foods. Room was clean, comfortable and a nice balcony. Outside pool was not in service at the time of stay but there is an indoor pool and a sauna. Overall we had a good stay

Location great, staff friendly.

Excellent. Only negative; requested double, got twin.

Hotel is not newest one, but very clean and comfortable. The value is location - just few hundred meters from the one of the best beaches and world wide well-known scenery places. If you have an option - take a sea view room on the 4th floor, even it's way more expensive. Gorgeous sunsets and morning views - absolutely amazing and worth that money. Food (we had breakfast) is good and quite enough to not feeling hungry till late lunch or early dinner, so we usually had 2 meals a day. If you don't want to spend money on the launch in restaurant 10 min walk to "intermarche" supermarket and get a freshly grilled chicken. Local restaurants are known for fish and at least one time you should try it.

Great hotel, our third visit and had a wonderful time.

First contact with hotel via email with instant response. Very happy with the hotel in almost every detail. Upon arrival which was very late in the evening we were helped in with our luggage and very efficient booking in. The room was a cheaper one overlooked the car park and other high rise properties but not unpleasant. Some of the other room's had lovely views. The room was in need of a make over but being the end of season I would expect that would be carried out soon! Our only major concern was no tea/coffee making facilities. The restaurant had a very good range of choice for breakfast quite adequate for most people although it was the same option every day. Unfortunately the staff cooking the omelettes on our last day were not very experienced. As for the dinners and evening meals we did not try being b&b only. The indoor pool had no changing room, strange! Other facilities seemed adequate. Overall it wasn't a bad experience staying at this hotel.

Around the pool needs tidying up

Excellent hotel located just in front of the beach. It has all facilities you can ask for, such as outdoor and indoor swimming pools, spa, etc... The golf shop within the hotel was very helpful, they found us a nice course golf only 5 minutes away from the hotel. The hotel itself is just 15mins walk away from the village centre where all the bars and restaurants are. Check out for the 0.90 Euro pint of beer in the pub along the way.

Our room in hotel badly needed upgrading . By the end of the day one corner of the pool would be very dirty . Although, it was the perfect location and breakfast was lovely
