Cockroaches, baratas, cucarachas! Whatever you call them, they got them at this place. We booked a two week stay at this property in April. After a few day we found roaches in the kitchen. We asked to move but were told that that they would do a thorough cleaning and this would solve the problem. They said the resort is in nature and we might find the same problem if we moved to another unit. After another few days the roaches appeared again. We insisted on moving this time. Even though we were told the new unit was ready for us to move into, when we got there there was a maintenance man repairing a number of problems in the unit. He repaired a number of the electrical fixtures in the unit, but later we discovered that there were more electrical issues. We phoned and asked to have these issues addressed but no one ever came. The location is beautiful, including the beach and the swimming pools. The units themselves are well decorated. The kitchens in the residences are small and the sparely equipped. One thing that was problematic with both units was the fact that the supplied teflon frying pans were heavily scratched. The management should realize that these are unhealthy for guests to use. The seals on the windows in the first unit we rented had failed and the windows were all fogged up. It was also noisy, being close to the road. Overall, not the best experience.

Found the staff not very friendly or helpful and a little bit rude at times. Overrated resort in my opinion and we were disappointed with out stay overall. We also found the resort was far too big and impersonal. The cliffs were beautiful and the rooms were spacious.

Hotel stay

We had a two bedroom suite at the Residences. Hotel is beautiful but it is very spread out. To go to beach and main hotel building you need to take a shuttle which you may need to wait for 15-20 minutes. For a 5 star resort service was a bit spotty. We had a mishap at breakfast- was told we can do a la cart instead of buffet but ended up waiting for 1 hour to get eggs which was ridiculous. This hotel is also outside of Albufeira so location is not super convenient - you have to drive to town.

Ótima estada

Ótima experiência, gostamos muito do hotel, limpeza da casa muito boa. Mas acredito que o serviço ao hóspede como recepção, guest services, concierge deveriam ser melhores para nivelar com o restante da hospedagem que foi ótima. Falta de funcionários para atender, concierge errou com a gente…Acho que poderia ser mais personalizado

Pine Cliffs - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely wonderful stay at Pine Cliffs. I travel a lot with work and stay in many hotels. Hands down, Pine Cliffs is one of the best resorts I’ve stayed in. The most amazing and helpful staff that make the whole family feel welcome. Their focus on the children is incredible, with our son being welcomed by name, high fives and a hug each morning at breakfast. The resort offers something for everyone in the family. Plenty of entertainment for Children, quiet areas for Mum and Dad. Great food, stunning views and a brilliant shuttle service to make getting around with a group so much easier. We will be back for sure!
