Hotel Dengan Pools di Faro District, Portugal

The hotel is clearly very new, and that is immediately reflected in the quality of the structure. The property is beautiful, modern, and equipped with many facilities, which creates a very strong first impression. It is also in an excellent location. That said, the atmosphere often felt somewhat chaotic, and even simple requests seemed to be handled with unnecessary complication, as though each one required extensive discussion. We also found one member of the reception staff particularly rude, or at least that was our experience during our stay. Another issue concerned the windows: when it is windy, they produce a noticeable whistling noise, which can be quite annoying. It is also worth noting that parking is not included and costs €15 per day, which would have been useful to know in advance. Overall, the hotel has a great deal of potential because the property itself is impressive and the location is very good, but the service and some practical aspects still need improvement.

Positives Excellent location with everything on your doorstep. Beautiful pool and garden areas, spectacular beach views, and great facilities. Staff were very friendly, especially around the pool. Food at breakfast and dinner was good, and evening live music was a nice touch. Negatives Our room had an ant infestation, so we had to switch; moved from the 5th floor to the 1st, where noisy neighbours at 1:30am meant a complaint to reception. On half-board, the dinner buffet only runs Tuesdays and Thursdays; other nights it’s a limited menu, with the full menu at extra cost (food was still good). Restaurant service was chaotic for a couple of nights; slow service , billing issues, wrong orders - though staff apologised and things improved by the end. Reception also didn’t explain key facilities at check-in, like beach lounge chairs or needing a ticket for pool towels. Overall We had a good holiday and would return, but would stick to breakfast only next time and try the local restaurants instead

good location, located in the center so it’s easy to go around.. the bus station is next to the hotel, and 2 mins away walking distance to McDonalds.. very nice breakfast with live music, great selection the indoor pool and sauna are clean and very nice the view from the room is lovely, got the marina, the beach, and the town..

Lovely hotel with delicious breakfast. Small swimming pool

This hotel is very recent. Beautiful, elegant and well-equipped in terms of services. What doesn't strike us as normal, however, is the lack of little touches for a hotel in this category. No shampoo, no q-tips, just the same gel for washing hands and in the shower. No shower cap. An empty fridge bar. We appreciate the coffee machine and the bottle of water, but one normal coffee capsule and 3 decaffeinated coffee capsules... not logical... We asked for a room with a bath when we booked (we were ”upgraded” without any request on our part, on a ”marina” view, but with a shower. As we are not very nice customers, we didn't say anything. The bedding is good. The pillows are quite thick, which can be uncomfortable for people with sensitive necks. 3 cushions are available, but they are all very dense. The road is very noisy, subject to a few car rodeos at night. I've heard that the rooftop is noisy in November, but fortunately this is not the case. The staff are friendly and respond to requests. The breakfast buffet is very comprehensive, but for the evening menu, this type of buffet seems less attractive, but will surely please some people. The spa is very good, at 12.5 euros for one hour (equipped swimming pool, sauna, hammam, etc.). There is a car park at the hotel for 6 euros a night, but free parking is available 200m from the hotel by the beach. All in all, then, this is a fine hotel with a lot of potential, but some details clearly need to be reviewed to make it really nice.

A beautiful hotel surrounded by magnificent gardens. We'd barely arrived when something unimaginable happened: a blackout on the Iberian Peninsula. The hotel managers responded in an exemplary manner: they provided information, provided everyone with a water bottle, and served cold meals and free grilled dishes in the restaurant in the evenings. The emergency generator also ran for a few hours. So, despite the uncertainty, we felt well looked after. Enjoying the sun by the beautiful pool area is also nothing to be sniffed at. The breakfast buffet was varied, including a good selection for vegans and vegetarians. We really enjoyed, among other things, the delicious, sweet fruit.

The hotel is very comfortable and the rooms are very comfortable. It is well parked at some apples at June dates and the centre pila nearby. The worst thing: if you are with children is not recommended because stairs are dangerous. The jacuzzi was broken. The room was struck with a TV, the shower and the bathroom were broken danced but it could be used. They don't make room, they don't change towels, they don't pick up the paperboard, I think they change it weekly. Premiere the aesthetic comfort and we end up uncomfortable with the placement of clothes, baggage and bathroom.

Spotlessly clean hotel with extremely welcoming staff. Swimming pools were a bit cold but that’s the only downside. Breakfast selection was very comprehensive. It’s a slight downhill walk into town so prepare for an uphill walk back. 2nd time here and will definitely be back.

Fantastic hotel. Stayed in a room with a small balcony and sea view. The sound of the crashing waves are very loud when you open the doors so if you’re not acquired to noise then you may want to choose a room not facing the sea. The room Itself was very clean and well maintained although the shower tiles had some dark marks on the grouting, doors and panels were spotless. The breakfast was very good but was almost the same each morning, to be fair, what else can you eat other than the usual stuff? Evening meals were lovely with a different choice each day but I personally found some dishes a little salty. This hotel is perfect if you want to just chill and relax and take long walks. The promenade is very flat with lovely a sunset each evening. As we went in the winter it was very quiet with plenty of room to manoeuvre. People are very friendly especially in the cafes and restaurants. There are many eateries but if you like coffees and cakes , oh and sushi, it is heaven. If this hotel had a few more facilities like an indoor pool and spa it would be perfect. I wouldn’t say that it is an ideal hotel if you have kids but the promenade would be nice for them to release some energy.

The hotel is just 14 mins walking from the beach. The room was big and very clean. Breakfast is simple but you can find everything. There is sauna and gym, free parking.
