Matkat – Peroguarda

First we got a room that smell badly of smoking. Got new room for the next day. The fridge in new room was in mold so we got a new fridge for next day... If you want a double bed, there is only one blanket. So If you want own blanket for both, be sure to check that out before the night receptionist comes to work, because he doesn't understand what you want or don't like to do any extra work. The breakfast is portugese style: minor supplies and you can hear the loudly conversation from kitchen that really disturbs the calm "breakfast-moment". The good thing in breakfast was that the coffee automat offered multiple styles of coffee and cocoa.

The partial Sea View room we were allocated, was shall we say very partial, you could see the sea if you lent over and out of the balcony.. The staff were tremendous especially Vinicius who sorted this out for us and moved us to a more appropriate room with the expected views for the 2nd night, but this would have been a problem if the property was busier. The pool bar was also closed, which meant we had to leave for refreshments from a shop, as all that was available was a vending machine. Both rooms were immaculate and modern, the hotel looks great and the pool area was ideal for us. The village too is a real gem, this will will be on our shortlist should we be back in the algarve for a short stay.

Hotel was okay for a short trip. The hotel was dated and was definitely not a 5 star. Personally think 3 star at max. Food was okay but would definitely advise booking the specialty restaurants over the buffet if all inclusive.
