The hotel had marvelous views and was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was excellent. In close proximity to a beautiful beach - 5 min walk.

The main negative was that it was a 40 minute walk along a quiet road to the local square if you wished to dine out. The local taxi offering was extremely expensive. The menu at the hotel was quite limited when it came to snacks and evening meals although they did have a quality breakfast buffet. This hotel would really benefit from the provision of occasional transfers to the local square in Ferraguda.

The hotel is located near the beach and is about 10 - 15 minutes to the city centre and Praia da Rocha beach. It has a swimming pool and we’ll maintained garden. The staff is friendly and always willing to help. Although, we could communicate well in English with the Bar staff, they were always willing to help. The rooms are tastefully decorated, clean and spacious. The hotel offers beach/swimming pool towels.

I wish the safe in the room worked so we can secure our valuables. The bar snack menu was also limited. Being in Portugal, it would have been great to have some seafood as part of the offering. Other than that, our expert was positive.

The staff was absolutely wonderful!! Hotel was also really nice, with nice pool area and approx 7 min walk from the beach. I was travelling with my adult (22y) daughter. The hotel is a little in the middle of nowhere, so be prepared to walk or uber to get to restaurants and shops etc. This considered, it would be nice if hotel sold some more snacks like potato chips or nuts or chocolate. The room was quite big and with plenty storage opportunities. Very poor lighting in bathroom, though. On the negative side, the airconditioning stopped working on the third of 6 days, the lovely and helpful staff tried to fix it several times but with no success, which made the heat in the room (37degrees..) quite unpleasant as we could not leave the veranda door open on the first floor when asleep - and no window. I think we should have been made the offer of a fan + reduction in price because of the AC-problem, but all in all we are very happy with our stay at Hotel Casabela!

Malfunctioning aircondition and hence very hot in our room, poor lighting in bathroom.

The staff were very lovely and accommodating. I'm vegetarian and dairy free so they got milk alternatives for me. The view from the hotel over the water to Portimão is STUNNING. Our balcony view room was spacious, clean and very picturesque. The pool was nice and so was the private beach. Would absolutely stay here again!

We came for a festival in Portimão and the Uber/Bolt/taxi services had a very long wait. Obviously because a lot of people were using them as their main source of transport in the local area. We were recommended by another hotel guest on the last day of our stay that you can get a taxi ferry over to Portimão from Ferragudo port. We wished this was information the hotel had and could give us from earlier. They didn't seem to have much knowledge on alternative transportation which was disappointing.

Excellent position and very quiet. Very good access to the beach via a lovely nature trail. The hotel is traditional in its style and outlook which is very refreshing opposed to new hotels where you could be anywhere in the world. This is a family owned and run hotel, Silvia is a lovely host, staff are a credit to her and the hotel.

Casabela is a beautiful hotel. The staff are very friendly and the pool is lovely. The breakfast was great but there was no vegetarian/vegan option for dinner (unless we pre-booked the vegetarian meal 24 hours before). However everything else was fantastic and it didn’t stop our enjoyment of the hotel as we were able to eat out elsewhere in the evenings. The private path to the beach was lovely.

No vegetarian/vegan option on the menu.

The property was so close to everything but yet in a very private setting. the pool was amazing with loads of different area to sit whether it be in the grass under a tree or around the pool. the pool bar was lovely and Josue was so nice and couldn’t do enough for us. there was also a lovely pathway with fruit tress from pool to the beach . the beach was so big with a few restaurants with lovely food and beds with parasols to lay on by the sea. The hotel was spotless clean everywhere. the room was big and the bed was very large and comfortable. the balcony on the third floor where we were had amazing views . we had the best most relaxing Holiday we ever had. we were there the first week of October so it was very quite. you could also walk to the village of ferragudo which was a lovely fishing village with loads of delicious restaurants serving fresh fish. I would highly recommend this hotel

the only downfall for us was the food during the day as they were coming to the end of their season . the first weekend we arrived we could get no food by pool. also the dinner menu had no choice so if you didn’t like the starter, main or desert it wasn’t worth the set price of 30€. but once I realised this we just ate in surrounding restaurants which were fab.

Welcoming, friendly staff, quiet location. Fabulous heated pool, short walk down to a lovely beach.

We liked everything about the property. It’s quite a long uphill walk from the old town, thankfully we had a car, although Ubers are very cheap.

the entire hotel was spotlessly clean and could not be faulted. room was cleaned every day and all communal areas were well kept. staff were very helpful and friendly. The beach was also beautiful and had a lovely walk down to it from the pool. Location was great a short drive into ferragudo for shops/restaurants and maybe 15 minutes from portimao. parking on site too which was free. woul definitely stay again!

Food was basic but we only had breakfast which was fine. Could maybe do with some more choices.

The pool was nice and close to the beach with the pathway out the back

Our rooms were not cleaned fully. Our bed sheets weren’t changed once over a full week and the shower door was left dirty. The bath/shower also had stains from the previous guest.
