when we arrived by car, no one greeted us at the entrance, and since the parking area near reception was blocked

no laundry service on a weekend.

pool got very little sun

it was all perfect. we had breakfast and dinner every day and was all good and fresh.

the location and the breakfast and that there was a gym

free wifi

fantastic service in bar and restaurants. fantastic facility, locationnand view

and we loved both the bar and vista restaurant

we will recommend palmares ocean living and golf resort to all of our family and friends that intend to visit

charge for the shuttle to the city and taking a lot of money to do your laundry (5 euro for item

gym is too small for a hotel of this size and a few nuts with beers wouldn t go wrong

the buffet breakfast was exceptional, the pools were clean and inviting with plenty of of loungers

so, if you want to check out the bar menu, you can only use your phone to scan the qr code

outdoor pool far too cold especially for kids

not possible to get an iron to iron your clothes, there is only a laundry option that takes 48 hrs as a standard

only possibility to do iron is to pay for laundry service

gorgeous hotel, staff were amazing! great kids pool and activity area

pool, proximity to beach, staff friendliness, cost of food and beverages

kids from 9-12 enjoyed it all

wish it had laundry onsite and didn t have to pay to use the gym

there is a shared laundry on the property which is very helpful

for families and the apartment had wonderful amenities like laundry, pool access and daily housekeeping

the laundry area was not in the resort

twin beds pushed together was odd. lots of kids at the pool.

laundry and grocery store within a 5 minute walk

good value, quick laundry service

1. laundry is very expensive at the hotel, but there are also many coin laundry places nearby

bar man was a legend

staff friendly and nice roof area to lounge with a splash pool

pool, grounds and rooms are very good

it has a nice pool area and a paddle court

friendly staff and the bar area was great for playing games.

pizzas in the bar at night were a lifesaver to avoid go out with little kids and they were delicious too

best to have a car as it was about 2km from the town and they had parking available onsite.

we were also unable to access beach or pool towels due to a ‘laundry issue’ throughout our stay

directly across from my balcony i observed gentleman doing his laundry and drying his clothes out his window

- we liked the gym and spa ud83euddd6ud83cudffc‍♀️ center

hotel is not kids friendly, has a lot of stairs that is extremly difficult for someone who travels with babies

swimming pool and kids weren’t allowed throw around a small ball to each other in the shallow end

the wifi was unreliable.

on the 2nd floor, the wifi connection wasn t great, but i hardly think it ll impact your stay given that,

good free wifi

the hotel was spotlessly clean, the breakfast was delicious and the sea views were stunning

breakfast was very good

parking was at a short walking distance as cars are not allowed in the small streets of the center

free parking is nearby

parking is in free dirt lot and it's a bit of a walk with lugggage

parking options ok, but i prefer the paid underground option along the harbor road

with local specialties, concierge service, and beautiful roof top lounge area and infinity pool

breakfast choice was excellent and tasty - staff very friendly and helpful throughout stay

quiet neighborhood, strawberry for breakfast, very nice staff. they have tiny gym.

would have been nice to be shown the gym and jacuzzi

we used the laundry facilities which were excellent & we were very glad to have the use of this

hotel, breakfast was poor quality and not fresh, room service randomly unavailable and we did a laundry that

item of clothing went missing, despite the efforts of the reception to find it in the bedding laundry, the item

not a lot for kids to do slide or something in the pool trivia night or some happy hour/ drink snacks specials

the gym was a little too small which made the space hot and lacks diversity in machines.

you got a bed room with a comfy bed, living room with sofa and flat tv, kitchen equipped with laundry, dishwasher

were tablets provided for the dishwasher but no laundry tabs provided for the washing machine, which seemed a

outdated, lightbulbs not replaced, not enough towels in the bathroom, poor lighting, our laundry drying rack

the resort literally provides nothing--no coffee filters, salt, laundry detergent

laundry soap was available by request

clean, well thought out details included 2 dishwasher pods and 1 laundry pod for the very quiet machines

so ultimately you can do a small load but have to hang your laundry to dry

to a corner so i can move about at the balcony and also put out the clothes hanger to dry the laundry

laundry facilities to do your own laundry in the studios, no racks for drying clothing that was

no dryer for laundry

they should have washing machine for customers to do laundry

we stayed in villa 1 which had a mini pool right outside the room, which was ideal for a quick dip whenever we

super nice and friendly staff and a very good breakfast

the breakfast needed work

villa on ocean pool was nice staff helped with anything we needed clean location was perfect free parking right

the staff working in the morning hours were quite bothered every time we ordered something to the pool or to

beautiful place, lovely staff. nice pool area.

outdoor swimming pool just a little on the small side and was closed due to time of year.

a great selection at breakfast including some very creative displays

we were met in the car park by a staff member in a golf buggy

this place has everything including dish soap and laundry detergent which i never used as i brought my own

also would ve liked a few pods for the laundry provided so we didn t have to buy a huge container only to

they provided laundry detergent pods, and there was a manual on how to use the washer machine

also the infrastructures were great (swimming pool, gym, football area, tennis area, inside pool, etc

i strong recommend the boavista golf &

as a result, the restaurant and bar opened briefly, only for one hour, but closed again

we had an apartment to ourselves with a kitchen and balcony to enjoy, and the bedrooms are airconditioned

the layout of the rooms and the pool view. the breakfast was also very good.
