Beautiful hotel, great location, will definitely come back.

Excellent hotel and staff with a gorgeous view.

The property and views are stunning. The food wonderful. The sauna and beach access are great. Depending on your needs you should know: Some rooms require stairs to access (plus an elevator - need both) so if anyone in your party is elderly or disabled, fyi to request a room that’s accessible (as I’ve stayed here before and was still surprised by it when arriving with my mother. Who knew?) The balconies are wonderful. If you are bothered by smokers though you should know this can be a problem. The spa is absolutely lovely. Also, true that communication can be spotty. I had a wonderful massage that on arrival to the spa I was told was on special. Great! But that meant I agreed to a much shorter version of it. I didn’t know so it made for an awkward surprise when I exited the treatment room 30 minutes sooner than I expected. I later read a poster in the elevator telling me the this - but first had me playing 20 questions with the spa staff about why the massage was short. It’s a very nice place! But it’s smoother if you know these things.

My room smelled terrible.

A bit run down outside but inside was well appointed Dinner food was horrible

The staff was wonderful! The setting is absolutely beautiful, and the interior of the property is gorgeous from the rooms to the common areas.

My husband and I got married in Portugal and had our entire American family stay at the Sesimbra ocean front hotel, the rooms are stunning, the views are heavenly and the staff is so kind and speak fabulous English! Can’t wait to stay again in the future.

Room was very big, clean and nicely furnished/decorated. The pool bar drinks are overpriced for the size and quality. There needs to be valet service for the fee to park.
