I spent 8 days there doing nothing...JUST RELAXING :) This hotel is a bit far from the city centre, but you can rent a bike and go there with no problem. Or you can choose the easy way to get there.. by calling a taxi. The hotel is ideal for families with children, because there are several activities for them... More

Nice room with comfortable beds, balcony and weel equiped bathroom. Direct access from the hotel to the pool and beach area. The sourroundings are very nice and calm. 20 minutes on feet to Zarco Shopping Center. I'd like to focus on the hotel restaurant. We were on so called soft all inclusive basis so we had breakfast, lunch and dinner.... More

We have traveled to this island twice a year now for the past 7 years. It is a beautiful place for rest and relaxation as you walk the 9 km. sandy beach. It is not a place for people who wish shopping or loud night life. The island has excellent restaurants, world class golf course, diving, horseback riding, wind surfing... More

I stayed at Vilabaleira this February by myself for a golf trip. The hotel was in a great location with excellent service. The view was very nice from my room on the eight floor. The swimming pools very very good and I really enjoyed the food in the hotel resturant! More

This place does just the very bare minimum to be four star. The rooms look like a tawdry British seaside hostel with yellow and blue sea sheel friezes apinted around the wall with matching curtains. OK, it is a beach hotel and it is clean but everything is so spartan, down to the no frills single bottle of combined shampo/shower... More

Perfect to family's but not only. Updated and large rooms with great views over the beach and ocean. Good services and enternaiment. Great Pool. Very good food with high quality and taste, and particulary attention to children needs. The apartments are also very good and can use all the hotel facilities. And of course the beach, probably one of the... More

I spent 4 days on Porto Santo in early September. The locals informed me that September was the best time as the winds were calm and the sea was warm, and they were right. The island itself is interesting and I highly recommend that you try one of the "jeep safaris" (very informative-friendly guides) as this will give you an... More

I went there in June with my husband and my 2 year old daughter and we had a great time - specially her! We spent our time between the outdoor pool, the beach, the indoor pool - those times of day when it was more windy - and the playground. We usually had lunch at the beach club by the... More

Also they always give... More
