Lovely stay . We were there on a weekday and it was so quiet and calm which we loved. We were able to Uber to old town and the strip. The room was very clean and spacious. Comfy beds. We got a room with a patio and side beach view which was very worth it. The breakfast was convenient but not my favorite.

All good sun loungers need upgrading

Hotel was great though as other reviews have mentioned, the gym and the sun loungers are tired. The pool area would be improved with new furniture. The multi-gym machine is basically not functioning. Rooms are spacious and sea view with massive balcony was one of the best features. Possibly a lounger could be added and the wooden chairs in 212 would have benefited with seat and back cushioning. Breakfast was great and up there with best in our experience. The selection was more than adequate and having a freshly cooked (hot) breakfast was better than cold bacon and sausages typically found in buffet style trays. We ate some hot snacks in hotel too for lunch which we both enjoyed. In the evening we ventured out to various eateries around the hotel and found a variety of restaurants which will appeal to different budgets. The area Sao Rafael is quite affluent and the villas and hotels in immediate area all appear to be very high end. The area to me felt very safe and quiet. I didn’t expect as many restaurants within 15 min walk so we only ventured down to Marina and Old Town for food on a couple of occasions. Bolt taxi to old town square was charged at €3.50 (economy taxi max3 passengers) Walk to marina is 15 mins though there is a hill on way down and funnily enough on return 😀 I’m scoring the Maritur an 8 overall. Seems to be the consensus and they might be ok with that. For a little investment in pool area and gym, they would easily be a 9.

Hotel can use a little update but it was clean and service was good. Breakfast was very good, fresh baked breads, and variety of fruits, cheese, ham, eggs made to order.

Clean hotel, great staff, easy parking, quiet. Beach is a bit of a walk away. Hotel is a bit dated. Overall good stay but very car dependent to venture into old town, the strip, or any real action.

Nice hotel, staff very friendly and helpful. Good food and fercilitys

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Maritur. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was perfectly situated as our base as we explored the Algarve, nicely secluded from the hustle and bustle but close enough to be in walking distance to many lovely beaches and restaurants. I would recommend hiring a car to stay and visit this area to get the full experience, the car park at the hotel is free and very safe.

It’s not really a 4 star hotel, room and amenities not reach standard. Not much offer other than the pool. Breakfast just standard and it’s very inconvenience without a car. Front desk is not friendly and provide information. The positive is room with large balcony and close the small beach. It’s not worth for stay

Great place. Reception at desk was a little frosty. No extra info offered. We were new to area, a little overview would have helped. Great facilities, breakfast was great. Very nice property. Wonderful views.

Lovely smaller hotel in good area. Pool side was very nice, comfortable and calm. Not many customers at the end of May, which was of course perfect. Rooms nice and tidy. Some areas were renowated, but not all. Still in good shape. Breakfast was good quality and there were many choices. Beds very comfortable. Tennis court nice, and not much competition to play there, due to the average age of customers. Still, very good choice for people in their thirties who can't stand the brits drunk in the centre! Snack bar nice and restaurant looked to have nice options based on menu. 5 minutes to old town with taxi, and beautiful beaches and cliffs nearby.

Really enjoyed our stay. Hotel and food very good but the jewel in the crown is the staff. They were very professional but most of all they were genuinely friendly. Well done!
