3-Star Hotels in Olhos de Agua

I going to admit I was really worried about staying here but we’ve just come back from 4 nights was very surprised. The staff were very friendly and accommodating - our room though it was dated was very clean, we also had housekeeping come everyday. The pool area was a great size. Plenty of beds, in decent condition. A couple were broken but the majority were good. The pool bar was reasonably priced and the food was good. Good service from staff. Our door locked and the hotel was in ok condition. From what I can tell they are merging two hotels together and are in process of doing the rooms/hotels up. Disliked · Down side our air con didn’t work - they did provide us with a fan however it was that hot it didn’t do very much. We struggled to get towels but we did get some. We just had to collect from reception in the evening. There was a couple of tiles on the balcony that was broken.

Exceeded our expectations. The welcome ride in the golf buggy to your accommodation block was a great start. We had a one bed garden view room near to the bougainvillea restaurant. It was dated in its furniture except the kitchen where it was clear it had had a recent upgrade. But the place was spotless and very clean., so we were happy. It was very late when we arrived so we went to the restaurant for a quick meal. It was very nice and reasonably priced. In the morning we could see where our room was, over looking the kiddie pool. It wasn’t the best view but it was ok. There were 2 sun beds and a table and chairs on the balcony which was good. Overall we loved the resort and will probably return at some point. We had a meal at portobello just across the road which is recommended.

Great room. Using the kettle is a bit inconvenient, because the sockets are not in an easy place. Breakfast room good, quality (English) breakfast could be better. In general, worth repeating.

Fantastic Apartment complex. We stayed for a week (2 friends and 2 children). Considering the apartment was very reasonable we weren’t sure what to expect. Rooms were fresh and modern, lots of lovely extra touches (toiletries, coffee machine, washing up liquid and sponge etc) which you don’t always get in other places. The whole place was immaculately presented and house keeping work hard keeping the place clean and fresh. Pool area was lovely, very quiet and always loads of sun beds on offer. On a few occasions we were the only ones there! There was a slight blimp when we arrived. We were greeted by a polite and helpful young man who informed us there had been a mix up and the 2 bed apartment we’d book wasn’t going to be vacated until the following day. In which case for that night we were placed in a 1 bed with sofa bed in lounge. By way of compensation, we were given free breakfast the following day. The apartment was huge and again well appointed. We found the complex and the surrounding areas to be really quiet, we were told this was because it was the start of the season. It was a 10-15 min walk to the main resort which had 10+ restaurants and bars as well as the main beach. There is also a beach 50m away from the apartments, however that is accessed by 100+ steps (not buggy friendly). We got an Uber into Albufera a few times (this ranged from 6-10 euros each way. Although that was enjoyable, we were glad to return to the quieter and more chilled area of Ohlas de Água. Cannot speak highly enough of this complex, can’t wait to return.

Our stay at Balaia Mar could not be faulted, we thoroughly enjoyed our first stay in Portugal and will definitely return to Balaia. It holds a special place in our hearts as we got engaged here. Upon our late arrival we were greeted by a very friendly gentleman who we unfortunately didn’t get the name of, but he was thorough in explaining to us how the hotel worked and walked us up to our room, returning without fuss when we had problems figuring out the aircon. Other reception staff were kind also throughout our stay, offering to book us a taxi and leave our suitcases with them until our transfer. Our room was spacious and overlooked the pool, surrounded by beautiful trees abundant with birds who we enjoyed seeing on our balcony for the whole trip. The room came with all of the amenities we required and was very comfortable. We were fortunate to stay at a quiet time and had the smaller pool to ourselves each morning for a swim and sunbathe. There was also easy access to Praia Maria Luisa so we could go to the beach when we pleased. When visiting the hotel restaurant we were lucky enough to be served by Volodymyr who always showed us a friendly smile and had great banter, he went above and beyond to provide us great service, allowing us to grab some breakfast after closing one morning and telling us about some nice places to visit, a top guy. Other restaurant staff were friendly and attentive to our needs also. Overall we had a brilliant stay and will definitely return here, I cannot think of anywhere else we would like to stay more in Portugal than here. Thank you so much!

Lovely collection of apartments and two pools in beautiful gardens. Not set in or near a resort and no onsite bar or restaurant so its very quiet, which wouldnt suit everyone, but we loved the tranquility. Stayed in a one-bedroom apartment, well equipped kitchen, good shower and two balconies for all day sun. There are a couple of restaurants and shops within walking distance if you're fairly mobile, but Ubers were easily available and very reasonable price. Owners are lovely people. Hope to visit again.

We so enjoyed our stay here for 7 nights. This is our fourth time here. We had a lovely room, very clean. We had towels changed three times during our stay and cleaned daily. Really friendly reception staff. The pool was pretty much to ourselves mostly, perhaps the time of year. Very peaceful area. Walk to the beach quick and easy as usual. Stunning views from the beach. We shall be back. Thank you.
