the clubhouse is a pleasant 8 to 10 minute walk away along the edge of the golf course

have to take a shuttle to a different location for breakfast and after all that, it wasn't great

facilities good with good gym, swimming pools and wellness suite

disappointment was the wifi connection

the free wifi wasn't too bad, had a lot worse in carvoeiro

the wifi was very, very bad. it didn't almost not work at all!!!!!!!!!!

reason why this is not a 10/10 is the wifi did not work anywhere in the hotel

also the hotel is so beautiful, with stunning gardens and a lovely pool area and generous breakfast every morning - the photos don't do it justice
