Vacanze Santa Maria

I spent 6 days at Quinta on early September and loved everything. It's a brand new structure, sort of a boutique hotel with 6 rooms in the main structure. The hotel is placed within a gorgeous orange plantation, can't even imagine how is being there in March/April! Very spacious rooms, the outside space (garden, terrace and pools) is big and well kept. The staff is very helpful (and they have a "secret list" of top notch restaurants in the area which you should try!); breakfast is 100% home-made (and cakes are superb), and there's little they can do to improve. I assume you already booked your stay (and you should), but if you read all the reviews to find something negative (as I do) here's the list of minor things I didn't like. 1. it was very hard not to wet everything outside the shower in room #6; 2. they have bicycles to go to the beach (which is great), but 3 of the 4 I tried had something broken or were unstable 3. on the initial 2 days, the room cleaning happened way too early, at breakfast time 4. the restaurants' secret list missed a great place, Casa da Igreja in Cacela Veha (which we visited 3 times after beach time)

Bella struttura, curata e pulita. Reception attenta al cliente. Purtroppo al ristorante i camerieri erano poco attenti al servizio ai tavoli per bevande e ritiro piatti.
