The staff! Just incredible, we have travelled all around the world and both agreed the staff at this hotel are the best we have ever encountered, so kind, helpful, attentive, nothing is too much for them, service always with the biggest smile. The staff really made the experience for us but aside from that the breakfast was outstanding, one of the best we’ve ever had, especially sat out on their beautiful terrace or equally the stunning dining room or conservatory. The beds were incredibly comfortable, very difficult to get out of in the mornings! Immaculately clean rooms. I had the most amazing foot massage in their spa which was reasonably priced. Gorgeous walks near by and in a quiet and serene location. We cannot wait to return!

The outdoor pool was too cold for us (Indoor spa pool was lovely) and the lunch food was not at the same standard as the breakfast but we ate lunch out most days so this didn’t really bother us.

lovely accommodation but needs an update in rooms given the price / very clean / staff absolutely wonderful especially the breakfast staff and Barbara ! Beautiful outdoor grounds and facilities

We ate dinners off site as the food though good was way over priced / designer type meals and the atmosphere was trying to cater to the richy rich rather than the relaxed , enjoyable vibe of the average resort traveller. Needless to say the restaurant was not very busy.

It has been many years since my last stay at the Hotel Quinta do Lago but it was very nice to return to this iconic hotel. The main reason for choosing the Hotel Quinta do Lago is its amazing location, close to the Rio Formosa nature reserve. Fantastic pathways and raised boardwalks offer miles of walking and cycling. The Hotel is rather traditional and clearly attracts an older clientele, many of whom return year after year. The pool area is beautiful and the hotel bar offers and incredible position from which to view the setting sun. Finally, our room and bathroom were very nice.

As mentioned the clientele is a little older and understandably the hotel panders to their needs... I found the piano player in the bar quite annoying and thus skipped pre-dinner drinks on the night we arrived. One morning there was jazz music playing at breakfast... enough to put you off your cornflakes! Actually why bother playing any music at breakfast? So, small, stupid things really.

Location and staff

Nothing. It was perfect
