Calheta Beach - All Inclusive

Calheta Beach - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"This reset is truly all inclusive ( breakfast ,unch , dinner snacks , drinks ). Parking space is also provided. Resort offers outdoor and indoor swimming pool. We also used the spa and sauna. Resorts also offers kids club ( 10am- 1pm lunch break and 2pm till 18pm) . On Saturday kids can stay from 10am - 6pm . That was very convenient since we wanted to go hiking and kids preferred to stay in the resort. Out stay was amazing , staff super nice and helpful !!! For example hike PR1 about 1h 20 min away, PR8 50 min away . Noatural pools in Porto Moniz about 1h away."

"A fabulous hotel in an excellent location. Rooms were immaculately clean and cleaned everyday. Staff could not do enough and were so friendly and helpful. The grounds and pool area were very well kept. Excellent buffet breakfast with extensive choice. Never a problem getting a sun-bed and sitting around the pool was very relaxing. Would highly recommend this hotel!"

10/10 Excellent
"Good basic 4 star hotel, as a base with a pool and breakfast it was fine for us. As long as a little tired decor doesn’t trigger you you’ll be great. Location is fantastic with a small park next door, shopping centre 5mins walk away and dozens of bars and restaurants nearby."
