Great place that we have been coming to for over 20 years but it feels less personal than it used to as Marriott now run it

Pros - ocean suite room was great, family friendly, easy for buggy around resort, quality of food (breakfast and restaurants), great choice of restaurants, polite and friendly staff, clean room and resort. Cons - no one helped with taking luggage from/to taxi on arrival or departure, there is a charge for most things and be prepared to be told about it constantly - swimming caps for indoor pool, mini golf, parking, sun beds based on location, games room. Overall great experience but I did feel the luxury of a 5 star in all areas of the hotel.

Pine Cliffs was incredible. The resort is stunning. We got engaged there, which was the highlight of our trip. The resort is close to nearby towns, hiking trails and attractions in Algarve. Everything is a short taxi away or they have a rental car service on the property. It was very convenient for our trip to Lagos. An ideal location in between everything with its own private beach. Staff was very friendly. It was warm and perfect beach weather in April. Did not have to pay for chairs on the beach. Be warned that it is a family resort with lots of kids. If you are going as a couple you may not be into that. I would stay there again. If you are looking for fresh fish, go off resort. All resort restaurants are over priced for catch of the day 120€ pp. If you go in town (Albufeira or to marina), catch of the day is 20€ pp and amazing food. The resort has a market on the Main Street, which is very handy for buying drinks, quick snacks or sunscreen. Bonvoy members: you cannot get points for your stay by booking through Expedia. I would recommend booking direct through Marriott.

Great stay! Fourth time there with extended family.

The entire property was in pristine condition, the room, the spa, restaurants and all other public areas. My only regret is only being able to stay there for two nights due to a tight travel schedule. We have promised to return and stay on the property for an entire week!

The Ocean suites are brilliant. Pools are lovely. Facilities, beach, surroundings grounds are idyllic. It is perfect for a holiday with kids - so much to do and areas to wander around. Felt very relaxing. Hotel staff are lovely and helpful. Downsides - not much variety for food and restaurants within the resort. Half of them closed or you can’t get a reservation. All of the kids food was covered in salt and not much variety or healthy options. Also the staff in the fine dining restaurants (particularly o pescador where we ate twice) are not as friendly or helpful and service is not 5 star quality. But staff at breakfast and the cafe and within the hotel/reception are very lovely and helpful. Overall I would return and felt like it was very good value for money.

Great location. Well maintained. Friendly staff.

This is a beautiful property with an amazing beach. The 2 bedroom was suite was perfect for the 4 of us. Several restaurants within walking distance.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Tons of stuff for the kids but still had a luxury hotel feel. We stayed in the Ocean suites 2 bedroom) and with the kids it was helpful to have the kitchen and washer/ dryer.

An excellent experience overall. The staff were amazing. The food was excellent. The amenities are top-notch. The view, by far is the highlight and the best.

It was such a beautiful resort to celebrate our anniversary. The property is located right off the cliffs and has a private access to the beautiful shores. Highly recommend this property and all the accommodations they offer!

A beautiful property with access to an amazing beach. In the off season so not many restaurants were open and the ones that were, weren’t the best and expensive.

Excellent time at the Ocean Suites, worth every penny!
