Cacela Velha Holidays

Clean. Near beach and many many restaurants

A beautifully situated and well appointed boutique hotel graced with courteous, efficient, multilingual staff. The pool and decking is framed with magnificent Mediterranean pines and rosemary. Gym is well equipped and the breakfast buffet abundant. Bedlinen is the finest, softest most silken cotton and the pillows provide a sweet slumber. Clientele in July was a mix of Portuguese ( a good sign when you stay in a country that its own people choose it) and some English, Irish and Italians. Guests were mostly well behaved.

Excellent value family friendly hotel

This hotel is a relaxing and therapeutic space with great healthy food choices on offer.

The property, our apartment was nice, a bit tired and old, and air conditioning units on the balcony that were so loud it made it hard to sleep, when maintenance eventually came out to see it, they just shrugged and said 'they're old, nothing I can do'. The resort is massive and they have a shuttle service to get you around to the beach or supermarket etc...this was very good, very quick, and very needed. The resort has a selection of restaurants by the beach, we hated this area, it was like a bad food court, food was poor quality, the entertainment was bad karaoke and it was just full of young kids running and screaming everywhere. We had a 13 year old with us so we weren't expecting a couples holiday, but this was another level. Overall, the resort is pretty, the apartment/villa was good value, and the surrounding area is great with lots of lovely restaurants outside of the resort.
