Horrible!!! Only location is great but the rudest front desk staff and for $500 per night the most greedy hotel they have espresso machine in the room but you have to pay 1.20 euro for each pod , no napkins in the room shampoo and body wash not enough for one shower only one bottle of water free for 2 people they charge 10 euro refundable to give you a card to pick a beach towel toaster in the breakfast room not working doesn’t worth to pay $500 per night only for the location only and receive the bad service ever and rudest staff I won’t advise anybody to have the experience we had

Tanya

Disliked: Staff & service
We were under the impression this was a 4-star hotel, (I would rate it as 3), and as an "adults only", was going to be quiet and relaxing. This hotel is the complete opposite. It is in the middle of party central, with loud, techno music right on the beach, other hotels with loud music and their own beach bar contributing to the noise. When we asked for 2 nights of reimbursement out of 4, they were mean, put the blame on us and talked behind our back to each other in Portuguese in angry tones. It was very upsetting. We stayed 2 nights and couldn't take it anymore, no sleep and no relaxation on the beach. If you want a party place, this is it, if not, go somewhere else.

Our stay at sol e mar was great. The location is great, right on the beach and a few minutes walk to the old town. The staff are lovely and the food was nice. Not a lot of entertainment in the evening but plenty of places to go to in oldtown but sometimes it’s nice to stay in hotel. Maybe a quiz night and a bit more entertainment but I would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again
