think i can think of anything negative about the hotel apart from maybe suggesting a broader room service menu

kids club and reception staff were particularly outstanding

loved the room with a beautiful sea view and balcony, the beach and the pool, the spa and the delicious breakfast with lots of fresh fruits and pastries

midnight to tell them what happened, and the manager came to our room next morning to offer the late check out and free breakfast

extra charges for use of gym and indoor pool are unneccessary

noisy children so only went to the pool on the first day , also not enough staff in the food and bar area it was crazy slow

room is large with lovely decor also with great wifi

bar facilities with an amazing cocktail menu lovely relaxed outdoor garden sun bathing area away

clean, self catering facilities, nice bar area, value for money, small library and snack machine, laundry facilities

the spa was very enjoyable also

pool was busy with people but nice and quiet

the cocktail bar was great with very entertaining staff that created a lively atmosphere

situation of the hotel is very good, right next to the ria formosa, the beach and golf courses

i found water from the pool bar to be expensive at 9 euro for a 80 cent bottle

room service was not to the same high quality - quite slow with limited choice

staffed and you felt very looked after, the breakfast in the morning was amazing, the gym and spa facilities were great and my room was great and very clean just like the whole

clean laundry every day

but 4 pools, 3 of which are outdoor, 1 of which is the children's and one heated indoor pool, a spa and table games room, on site shop, tennis courts, ping pong table pool table, entertainment

excellent fresh and varied breakfast choices

swimming pool was huge and with great common areas

free, big breakfast with buffet, very nice and large room with confortable bed, large bathroom, very

fitness room very small overal spa and gym are not very good

breakfast was not the greatest. the gym needs updating.

truely enjoyed ourselves. some disney films in the inside kids club would have been a bonus.

sarah at reception is exceptionally helpful and anna who works at the roof top bar is astounding

the rooftop terrace was superb too with a bar and jacuzzi

not good for family's with kids

in a slightly lively area which makes it a lot of fun and lots for kids to do too

missed the roof top bar and jacuzzi, closed a day before we arrived but its stunning

it’s not even a 10min walk to the city centre and bars, so you get the convenience to stay in a quiet area but still close enough to go out explore

from the interior design, the swimming pool and the unique drawing rooms located around the hotel

the lounge room furniture was a little bit dark for a spa hotel and if painted white or a light colour would lighten the room decor

boa vista hotel and spa is ideally situated near the beach, shops and restaurant

pool area was lovely

breakfast was delicious, and the spa is really a must

location - the mountain and golf course scenery was stunning the breakfast - varied/delicious and plentiful the gym - super

breakfast excellent and service in the restaurant and food quality vey

our own doing, but we left it too late to book the children’s activities and spa treatments during our stay

main pool was busy and had limited beds
