3.5 star property
6.0 out of 10, (1)
"I’m confident it will be better over time, but right now they have quite a bit to work on. Many drinking glass were not cleaned and spider web on some chairs. Despite >85% empty (my assumption) we got an apartment where we had to go up some stairs to reach it. No elevator and not possible to change. The reception is not very quick or helpful.

Hotel Apartamento Porto Côvo
3.0 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (7)
"We only used this hotel to stay overnight while traveling from The Algarve to Lisbon. But it was more than adequate for that. The rooms were a little dated but very clean and well maintained. The building is located within easy walking distance of the town, restaurants, and the beach. Porto Covo is a nice small town, and parking was easy. The staff was very nice and spoke English, which we appreciated. Facility was quiet but be advised their is no front desk help from midnight to 8:00. Overall,...

Windmill With Pool In Cercal do Alentejo
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (22)
"The windmill and annex building were great. The walled courtyard was really nice. I was not thrilled with the town itself but this being just outside of town made the stay very enjoyable. The host was very easy to communicate with and seemed really nice. If I were to stay in the area again I would stay here. Very enjoyable!"

There was plenty of space for all of us to relax and enjoy. From the beginning, the host, Elizabeth Reis, was incredibly gracious and helpful.
