Palmares Beach House Hotel – Adults Only

We stayed at Palmares to get some early sun and play golf. I had heard good things about the golf at Palmares and we where not disappointed playing 3 rounds across all 27 holes. A real gem of a golf course offering links golf in the sunshine simply wonderful. The hotel is also modern and well appointed being small but perfectly formed it catered for our every need and we had very personal service. Thank you to all the staff who made our stay feel special. The views are stunning looking over the dunes and beach seeing for miles it was a real pleasure and good for our soul. Thank you.

Small property with 20 ocean view rooms. Rooms are modern, fresh and spacious. Nice outdoor balcony with chaise lounges. Amazing breakfasts daily. Great cocktail and lounge with a chill atmosphere. Ten minute drive to Lagos. Small pool and located on a golf course. Good customer service. Adults only with a very peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to the Algarve.

We stayed in room 205, arriving 24 September and departing 27 September. The property was easy to find using ApplePlay guidance. The property is is stunning. It is a very large sprawling complex with villas, town houses, golf courses and a small hotel. Parking is right outside the entrance making it easy to pack, unpack etc. The gorgeous professional landscaping suits the environment and extends throughout the property. Check in was easy ( we booked on Booking.com) and help was offered to carry our luggage. We had a welcome drink which is nice but when I ordered another rather than adding it to our room bill, I was asked to pay right then and there. That was strange. Our room was small but beautifully appointed and immaculate. The cleaning staff paid attention to detail. The room was serviced 2X daily and a treat was left on the bed. Since storage was somewhat limited ,this required a bit more effort to keep the room neat and tidy. There was a desk behind the bed but not in view and a couch for separate seating. The room had a lovely balcony overlooking the golf course and out to the beach, the ocean and the town of Lagos. Thankfully the bed faced the view so credit to the designers! Each balcony is private with 2 chairs and a table. The bed was comfortable and climate control easy. There were no USB ports but enough outlets to use an adaptor and chargers. Be sure to bring those since USB ports are not common in Portugal. The bathroom was nice…good shower, water pressure, plentiful towels, robe, slippers, toiletries, hair dryer etc. Breakfast was very nice. The dining room has large windows and sliding doors for both inside and outside eating. The breakfast starts with a 3-tiered plate with meats, cheeses and sweets on separate layers. A bread basket with a very good assortment is also provided. In addition juices and coffee etc are served. There are also choices included from a menu. The eggs were excellent. This was actually a welcome change from a buffet. We had dinner at the hotel and although the food was good and nicely presented the menu was very limited and it was a bit of a challenge to find something we wanted to eat. The concept was a bit fussy and also overpriced. Service was very good. We drove into Lagos each day . The drive is very easy and parking in Lagos equally so. It would have been nice if we were made aware of other eating options on the property itself. We did find a booklet in a drawer when we were packing to leave that outlined particulars of the hotel as well as dining options. We do recommend this property…especially if you play golf. We did not have time to do so nor did we use the pool or beach. We needed more time! Compliments to the staff.
