Excellent hotel, superb location, very close to the marina with it's multitude of fabulous restaurants and very close to the beach. Very comfortable bed and lovely soft pillows. Very good breakfast. The hotels swimming pool is large and clean. Evening entertainment some evenings. On-site car parking. And a fabulous very special and personal touch was that they detected from my passport that it was my birthday so they put a bottle of wine, in an ice bucket, slice of cake with a candle in it in the room - how thoughtful - and free!!

Seagulls were a problem, lots of poo on the sun loungers which were uncomfortable and sunbeds towels were very thin and shabby. No tea and coffee facilities in the rooms.

The hotel is well located, just a short stroll to the marina. Breakfast was excellent - with a large selection of fresh fruit, cheeses, cereals, juices, pastries, omelette station, hot food etc and breakfast staff were friendly and helpful. Reception staff were friendly and helpful, particularly Marco. We had a massage and a detox wrap at the hotel spa with Carla and Fatima which were excellent and fairly priced.

The only annoyance was a group of around 8/10 loud men who were belting out dire music by the pool on their speaker, I saw this in a previous review but thought it might have been once off, fortunately it was only for one day and we just left and went to the beach instead but it should be addressed by the hotel in future and it was the only downside of our stay.

We had a very enjoyable stay at this hotel. It is a very clean hotel. You can see the staff cleaning all the different areas around the hotel multiple times a day and our bedroom was cleaned daily too. We found the staff very friendly in the hotel. The hotel is situated in a great location in Vilamoura. You are close to the marina and to the beach and you have Jaffers supermarket only a few minutes walk down the road. This hotel has a lovely clean pool area and they have a kids club with different activities happening throughout the day. Our room had a nice balcony outside with a table and 2 chairs and we had lovely views of the marina. Finally just to say we had very good air conditioning in our room.

The hotel felt a bit dated in style but we didn't mind too much as it was so clean and the facilities were good. The air conditioning wasn't working in the kids club room and I felt it was very warm in there especially for young children. In the bathroom, I felt the shower area was narrow in width and it would have been nicer to have a wider space with a more modern shower system.

Location was only a 2 minute walk from the actual Marina and all the restaurants and bars. Fantastic choice if you want everything at the tip of your fingers. if you're planning any activities like fishing, jet ski's ect the booth is a 2 minute walk and give you pretty good discounts. The actual hotel is very clean and modern, with friendly staff who are very helpful when needed.

The only thing that was 'lacking' was the hotel breakfast. The choice of breakfast items was very mid especially in the fruit department. they do however make omelets and crepes to your desire but the line is usually quite long for this.

Fabulous location for beach & marina, good atmosphere by the pool area. Nice sized balcony, beds very comfy. Decent choice of food at breakfast. Sound proofing in room is great, couldn't hear anything in the neighbouring rooms so slept well. Would stay again.

Tables by the sun loungers could be cleaner, pool towels are small & very thin, quality not great. Could make more use of the bar area in the evenings with more entertaining to encourage guests to use that facility more.

The food was brilliant, a wide selection at both breakfast and dinner and there were options to cater to everyone. The freshly grilled to order meat and fish in the evenings was lovely, and the salmon was the best I have ever tasted! The staff were all incredibly welcoming and friendly and catered to our every need. We arrived late on our first day so missed our first dinner as we were half board, but the staff honoured this and still provided us with a meal from the bar and gave us the option of having it on our arrival evening or as a lunch during the week. I cannot fault the service! The location of the hotel is a short walk to both the marina and the beach and many restaurants and shops are nearby making it an ideal location.

The only recommendation I could make would be an update to the decor in the bedrooms, but it was all perfectly clean, just a little dated visually.

We loved the outside jacuzzi and it was a shame that the pool was so cold 😅 we tried to go into the pool but we couldn't. Since the outside jacuzzi was warm, we spent a couple of hours there. We also went to the interior pool and was amazing. We loved the location, the easiness to park, the room and the view.

The inside jacuzzi but this last one was not smelling good, it was kind of dirty. The Turkish bath, though was way too hot and we had to tell the receptionist that, because it was horrible to be in. The AR conditioning of the room was making too much noise, our room phone was not working and the receptionist had to call my phone to talk to us.

very clean and comfortable bed. room serviced every day. nice breakfast. very convenient location. staff friendly and efficient.

rooms dated and need an upgrade. balcony never got any sun morning or evening. we were on 3rd floor. poor lighting in bedroom. could do with a bright bedside light for reading

Lovely hotel, close to the marina, great breakfast, something for everyone , staff were amazing, room was lovely very spacious, would have been nice to have tea and coffee facilities in the room, it's the first time we stayed in any hotel that didn't have one, but when we looked at room facilities it wasn't on the list, the band was amazing in the evening loved the music, would highly recommend the vila gale marina

I requested a ground or level one floor and it was fulfilled the room was clean and spacious but a bit dark also one of the lamps didn’t work but that didn’t take away from it. The breakfast was nice and if some thing was not there staff where on hand to get for you, the marina was literally a two minute walk which was amazing ( photo below to show how close) The pool staff (hol rep) were AMAZING migel, silla and theigo really got everyone involved in the pool activities and wore nice and chatty every day. all was good and I would return to this hotel again happily

The pool had some dirt coming off the tiles around it which had some bits floating in the pool or if u leaned on it it would go on your bikini, there was quite a few ants in our room also and the beds wore a bit hard and uncomfortable. None of this would take away from our stay at this hotel.
