Pedras da Rainha

8/10 Good
"Our upstairs, traditional style studio apartment was clean and comfortable with a modern bathroom suite. We had a lovely, large private balcony. We managed ok but the stone stairs are narrow and steep - cases up on arrival and down on check-out were a challenge! Room servicing is regular with just 2 days off. All the staff are friendly and helpful. Pool is large and deep at one end - a proper swimming pool. Plenty of space for beds, and lots of shade with umbrellas, trees and the restaurant canopy. Bar and restaurant have tasty options and daily specials - at fairly reasonable prices. It is a family and pet friendly resort. Safe and quiet, plenty of parking, or even bikes to rent. Handy on-site Supermarket. All set in well maintained gardens, yet some of the access pathways are uneven and loose, meaning you have to keep your eyes down at all times! This was our 4th time staying here and we will definitely be back."
