Monchique hotel guide. Pestana Group hotel in Monchique, Faro District

"Property clean and new, location perfect , staff v friendly, informative and cooperative especially Dyara at reception ."

"The hotel is so close to the beach and coastal walkways, a 15 minutes walk to old town but honestly worth it as the views are amazing and the beach beautiful "

"I felt I should write a review after reading lots of bad reviews about this hotel, as I had a very pleasant stay. The hotel is very basic and doesn't have air conditioning but I knew this before booking. My room didn't get a lot of sun and the temperature was fine. It is clean and there were cleaners working all the time. There are a lot of steps in it but I didn't have a problem with that, there is an elevator. All the photos the hotel provides are exactly how it is. There is a lovely view from the pool and breakfast area. Breakfast was basic, as expected but enjoyable due to the lovely views. It is in an elevated position above the old town, so I would usually walk to the town, which isn't far and get an uber back, which was €4. The lady at reception was very pleasant. Overall, I knew what I had booked before I arrived and I didn't expect five star facilities at a two star hotel. Also I was travelling on my own and felt safe. "

"It's out of the way if you want a quiet holiday, you have to get a taxi everywhere to get to the towns and shops"
