Canadian here. After 17 days of touring Portugal, this final stop was the icing on the cake. Opulence around every corner! Gated, beautiful location right on the beach. The pool area is exactly what you’d expect from a five star hotel. Breakfast overlooking the beach was magic. For my Canadian friends, think a smaller version of one of our CN hotels. Luxurious.

Stunning property… exquisite dining experience. Extremely attentive staff. Breakfast was amazing, including the views. Pool was very relaxing. Gym is well equipped.

BEAUTIFUL property, amazong staff, not at all worth the premium prices. We stayed in a few other hotels in Portugal on this trip. All of them were significantly less expensivw, just as clean, offered all of the same amenities, and were a better value for the money.

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay at Bela Vista! The staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable from the second we arrived. Portimão itself is perhaps a little more touristy than other cities in the Algarve, but Bela Vista felt like an oasis away from this. We absolutely LOVED the daily breakfast, pool facilities, and Vista Restaurant - this was the best meal we’ve ever had in our lives!

The preservation of the original home and its fine architecture, Brazilian wood, and gorgeous hand painted tiles was meticulous and made for a very special stay. We really enjoyed the incredible presentation of our salt crusted sea bass at dinner. The service and food were top notch. We were also delighted with our gracious room upgrade, bottle of champagne upon arrival. Delightful property!

This is a very special place: grown-up, sophisticated and the very opposite of a chain. A short walk down to the huge beach. And, a haven from the craziness of the street on the other side of the elegant gates. The breakfast bar is extraordinary. Staff were wonderful and couldn't do enough for us. I rarely say this, as the world is big, but we will be back.

Excellent Service from all the staff. At the price we expect Four Seasons esk service and we got this. Major issue was NO HOT WATER FOR 3 DAYS. Luke warm water. This must have been an on going issue and we were kindly given a room night complementary.

This is a special hotel. The mansion is stunning. The staff are wonderful. The experience at breakfast is amazing. The ladies in the morning do a wonderful job. If you drive make sure you know the code to enter the road in front of the hotel which I missed on the introductory email unfortunately. That is important as you can’t access the road without it. As you drive up you wonder about your choice given the immediate surroundings but once you enter the driveway and mansion all is well. Great experience. If you go you MUST do a private boat tour of the coast with Alvor Boat Trips. This is a requirement!

4/10 Fair

A no go hotel

The main building with view rooms was great But the other building where the most rooms where was disappointed over all. No value for money. The pool was great. The food under the level. We also eat one evening in the Michelin Star hotel. It was from the food side a total disappointment and much to exepensive. Wenn you pay more than 600€ for a night and they asked 5€ for a soft drink I have my questions. Then I feel it is only about money and not about the core business. And we eat at an other recommended restaurant who become in 2025 a Michelin star and the food was great and the price more than 50% cheaper.
