Hotel terbaik di Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo

This is a lovely hotel. A great location in the hills, beautiful and quiet. Surrounded by orange, lemon and olive trees, with fab views and gardens to sit in quiet corners. The rooms are comfortable and immaculately clean. The pool area, the same. The animals are a nice touch, with a donkey, some sheep, peacocks and turtles. And cats wandering around the gardens. All of that makes this a nice place to stay. But the star of this hotel, for us, was the restaurant, the quality of the food and the fantastic staff. From the sweetest, juiciest oranges and figs from the gardens for breakfast, to Algarvian fish stew for dinner, to local specialities like Cataplan, the quality of the food is very high. The staff of this hotel are of course very professional, but they also give a lovely personal service. They are so helpful, friendly and kind. Everyone goes the extra mile to make people feel welcome. Special thanks from us go to Pedro, the restaurant manager, and Miguel and Sofia. Making people feel special, as you do, is not easy, but it makes a huge difference to your guests. Thank you for a lovely holiday!

Absolutely gorgeous grounds and building, spent a few hours wandering the public gardens and the private grounds, the house and enjoying the pool. Fantastic services, delicious breakfast, lovely front of house staff. Would recommend eating dinner in the village, I enjoyed delicious dourada and wine for 10 euro at O Belo Sol. Taxi from the palace to the airport is 20 euro and takes 20 mins.

We have now been here for the 6th time (always in winter). We were always very satisfied with the apartment. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The studios are very large and well equipped. All apartments (Premium Studio) on the 1st and 2nd floor (Premium Studio Superior) have a balcony with a view of Ria Formosa (sea). There is a huge roof terrace for sunbathing with a wonderful panoramic view. There are plenty of free parking spaces directly at the house, at least in November and February. The location of Estudios Salinas is very good. Fuzeta is a pleasant little place with decent restaurants. Everything is within easy walking distance – restaurants, supermarket, sea… We will be back for a 7th time.

This our fifth stay at this hotel and it never fails to impress. The rooms are spacious, the breakfast is exceptional and all the staff are wonderful. The hotel is not by the sea but inland about a 10 minute drive - Faro airport is about 20 minutes away, which makes it a quiet place to relax and unwind. We would recommend eating in the restaurant at night as the menu is varied and beautifully presented. All together an outstanding hotel: a real gem.

Rating by the door was a one star but should be rated a bit higher. Was given a 3) bed room (3 x twin beds) which was ok, except the 3rd bed took up precious room space. Room was clean, shower was clean, entire hotel appeared clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Free parking was available. Hotel is near the road but did not notice any undue noise at night. Hotel has a nice patio and a pool. Vending machines are available on property. Close enough to Tavira town to walk, just need to navigate the roundabout carefully. Walking in the middle of summer may not be advisable though. Room had a well functioning and quiet A/C. A small refrigerator was available. Breakfast was good and included in the room rate. The pastries were very good. Also available was a variety of breads, jams, some cold cuts and cheese and a bowl of chunky fruits. Coffee (machine) was somewhat typical of the area, coffee came out either too strong or too weak. Ended up using the black setting and adding my own milk. It's a bit odd that the traditional coffee milk available in most northern European countries was not available. 3 types of juices were dispensed from the machine with the orange being the best. Scrambled eggs smelled a bit fishy, also somewhat typical of the area, believe it is due to chickens being fed fish meal. There was a restaurant attached to the hotel specializing in rotisserie chicken, not sure if the restaurant was part of the hotel or independent. Price was very reasonable. Only complaint would be that meals are often served with only boiled or french fried potatoes, and lettuce with tomato salad. If visiting Tavira head to Santa Luzia and A Casa restaurant and try the grilled Octopus.

Ich hatte ein Appartement gebucht und bin auf eine kleine Villa hochgestuft worden. Die Bauweise und Ausstattung war „landestypisch“. Die Küche bot das Nötigste, wie fast überall jedoch keine scharfen Messer oder Spültücher. Kühl war es im Gebäude, eben entsprechend der Außentemperatur: die Heiz-/Kiimageräte haben die Luft gewärmt. Wände und Böden blieben über die zwei Tage kalt. Im Hochsommer ist das bestimmt angenehm, Anfang März nicht. Die Lage des Resorts ist top! Der Service und die Freundlichkeit des Personals ebenfalls! Würde ich wiederkommen? Zu einer wärmeren Jahreszeit immer gerne.
